-/**
- * The `child_process` module provides the ability to spawn subprocesses in
- * a manner that is similar, but not identical, to [`popen(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/popen.3.html). This capability
- * is primarily provided by the {@link spawn} function:
- *
- * ```js
- * const { spawn } = require('child_process');
- * const ls = spawn('ls', ['-lh', '/usr']);
- *
- * ls.stdout.on('data', (data) => {
- *   console.log(`stdout: ${data}`);
- * });
- *
- * ls.stderr.on('data', (data) => {
- *   console.error(`stderr: ${data}`);
- * });
- *
- * ls.on('close', (code) => {
- *   console.log(`child process exited with code ${code}`);
- * });
- * ```
- *
- * By default, pipes for `stdin`, `stdout`, and `stderr` are established between
- * the parent Node.js process and the spawned subprocess. These pipes have
- * limited (and platform-specific) capacity. If the subprocess writes to
- * stdout in excess of that limit without the output being captured, the
- * subprocess blocks waiting for the pipe buffer to accept more data. This is
- * identical to the behavior of pipes in the shell. Use the `{ stdio: 'ignore' }`option if the output will not be consumed.
- *
- * The command lookup is performed using the `options.env.PATH` environment
- * variable if it is in the `options` object. Otherwise, `process.env.PATH` is
- * used.
- *
- * On Windows, environment variables are case-insensitive. Node.js
- * lexicographically sorts the `env` keys and uses the first one that
- * case-insensitively matches. Only first (in lexicographic order) entry will be
- * passed to the subprocess. This might lead to issues on Windows when passing
- * objects to the `env` option that have multiple variants of the same key, such as`PATH` and `Path`.
- *
- * The {@link spawn} method spawns the child process asynchronously,
- * without blocking the Node.js event loop. The {@link spawnSync} function provides equivalent functionality in a synchronous manner that blocks
- * the event loop until the spawned process either exits or is terminated.
- *
- * For convenience, the `child_process` module provides a handful of synchronous
- * and asynchronous alternatives to {@link spawn} and {@link spawnSync}. Each of these alternatives are implemented on
- * top of {@link spawn} or {@link spawnSync}.
- *
- * * {@link exec}: spawns a shell and runs a command within that
- * shell, passing the `stdout` and `stderr` to a callback function when
- * complete.
- * * {@link execFile}: similar to {@link exec} except
- * that it spawns the command directly without first spawning a shell by
- * default.
- * * {@link fork}: spawns a new Node.js process and invokes a
- * specified module with an IPC communication channel established that allows
- * sending messages between parent and child.
- * * {@link execSync}: a synchronous version of {@link exec} that will block the Node.js event loop.
- * * {@link execFileSync}: a synchronous version of {@link execFile} that will block the Node.js event loop.
- *
- * For certain use cases, such as automating shell scripts, the `synchronous counterparts` may be more convenient. In many cases, however,
- * the synchronous methods can have significant impact on performance due to
- * stalling the event loop while spawned processes complete.

-         * When an IPC channel has been established between the parent and child (

-         * be used to send messages to the child process. When the child process is a

-         *
-         * The message goes through serialization and parsing. The resulting
-         * message might not be the same as what is originally sent.
-         *
-         * For example, in the parent script:

-         * // Causes the child to print: CHILD got message: { hello: 'world' }
-         * n.send({ hello: 'world' });
-         * ```
-         *
-         * And then the child script, `'sub.js'` might look like this:
-         *
-         * ```js
-         * process.on('message', (m) => {
-         *   console.log('CHILD got message:', m);
-         * });
-         *
-         * // Causes the parent to print: PARENT got message: { foo: 'bar', baz: null }

-         *
-         * Child Node.js processes will have a `process.send()` method of their own
-         * that allows the child to send messages back to the parent.
-         *
-         * There is a special case when sending a `{cmd: 'NODE_foo'}` message. Messages
-         * containing a `NODE_` prefix in the `cmd` property are reserved for use within
-         * Node.js core and will not be emitted in the child's `'message'` event. Rather, such messages are emitted using the`'internalMessage'` event and are consumed internally by Node.js.
-         * Applications should avoid using such messages or listening for`'internalMessage'` events as it is subject to change without notice.
-         *
-         * The optional `sendHandle` argument that may be passed to `subprocess.send()` is
-         * for passing a TCP server or socket object to the child process. The child will
-         * receive the object as the second argument passed to the callback function
-         * registered on the `'message'` event. Any data that is received
-         * and buffered in the socket will not be sent to the child.
-         *
-         * The optional `callback` is a function that is invoked after the message is
-         * sent but before the child may have received it. The function is called with a
-         * single argument: `null` on success, or an `Error` object on failure.
-         *
-         * If no `callback` function is provided and the message cannot be sent, an`'error'` event will be emitted by the `ChildProcess` object. This can
-         * happen, for instance, when the child process has already exited.
-         *
-         * `subprocess.send()` will return `false` if the channel has closed or when the
-         * backlog of unsent messages exceeds a threshold that makes it unwise to send
-         * more. Otherwise, the method returns `true`. The `callback` function can be
-         * used to implement flow control.
-         *
-         * #### Example: sending a server object
-         *
-         * The `sendHandle` argument can be used, for instance, to pass the handle of
-         * a TCP server object to the child process as illustrated in the example below:
-         *
-         * ```js
-         * const subprocess = require('child_process').fork('subprocess.js');
-         *
-         * // Open up the server object and send the handle.
-         * const server = require('net').createServer();
-         * server.on('connection', (socket) => {
-         *   socket.end('handled by parent');
-         * });
-         * server.listen(1337, () => {
-         *   subprocess.send('server', server);
-         * });
-         * ```
-         *
-         * The child would then receive the server object as:
-         *
-         * ```js
-         * process.on('message', (m, server) => {
-         *   if (m === 'server') {
-         *     server.on('connection', (socket) => {
-         *       socket.end('handled by child');
-         *     });
-         *   }
-         * });
-         * ```
-         *
-         * Once the server is now shared between the parent and child, some connections
-         * can be handled by the parent and some by the child.
-         *
-         * While the example above uses a server created using the `net` module, `dgram`module servers use exactly the same workflow with the exceptions of listening on
-         * a `'message'` event instead of `'connection'` and using `server.bind()` instead
-         * of `server.listen()`. This is, however, currently only supported on Unix
-         * platforms.
-         *
-         * #### Example: sending a socket object
-         *
-         * Similarly, the `sendHandler` argument can be used to pass the handle of a
-         * socket to the child process. The example below spawns two children that each
-         * handle connections with "normal" or "special" priority:
-         *
-         * ```js
-         * const { fork } = require('child_process');
-         * const normal = fork('subprocess.js', ['normal']);
-         * const special = fork('subprocess.js', ['special']);
-         *
-         * // Open up the server and send sockets to child. Use pauseOnConnect to prevent
-         * // the sockets from being read before they are sent to the child process.
-         * const server = require('net').createServer({ pauseOnConnect: true });
-         * server.on('connection', (socket) => {
-         *
-         *   // If this is special priority...
-         *   if (socket.remoteAddress === '74.125.127.100') {
-         *     special.send('socket', socket);
-         *     return;

-     * Certain platforms (macOS, Linux) will use the value of `argv[0]` for the process
-     * title while others (Windows, SunOS) will use `command`.
-     *
-     * Node.js currently overwrites `argv[0]` with `process.execPath` on startup, so`process.argv[0]` in a Node.js child process will not match the `argv0`parameter passed to `spawn` from the parent,
-     * retrieve it with the`process.argv0` property instead.
-     *
-     * If the `signal` option is enabled, calling `.abort()` on the corresponding`AbortController` is similar to calling `.kill()` on the child process except
-     * the error passed to the callback will be an `AbortError`:
-     *
-     * ```js
-     * const { spawn } = require('child_process');
-     * const controller = new AbortController();
-     * const { signal } = controller;
-     * const grep = spawn('grep', ['ssh'], { signal });
-     * grep.on('error', (err) => {
-     *   // This will be called with err being an AbortError if the controller aborts
-     * });
-     * controller.abort(); // Stops the child process
-     * ```

-     * `error.code` property will be
-     * the exit code of the process. By convention, any exit code other than `0`indicates an error. `error.signal` will be the signal that terminated the
-     * process.
-     *
-     * The `stdout` and `stderr` arguments passed to the callback will contain the
-     * stdout and stderr output of the child process. By default, Node.js will decode
-     * the output as UTF-8 and pass strings to the callback. The `encoding` option
-     * can be used to specify the character encoding used to decode the stdout and
-     * stderr output. If `encoding` is `'buffer'`, or an unrecognized character
-     * encoding, `Buffer` objects will be passed to the callback instead.
-     *
-     * ```js
-     * const { exec } = require('child_process');
-     * exec('cat *.js missing_file | wc -l', (error, stdout, stderr) => {
-     *   if (error) {
-     *     console.error(`exec error: ${error}`);
-     *     return;
-     *   }
-     *   console.log(`stdout: ${stdout}`);
-     *   console.error(`stderr: ${stderr}`);
-     * });
-     * ```
-     *
-     * If `timeout` is greater than `0`, the parent will send the signal
-     * identified by the `killSignal` property (the default is `'SIGTERM'`) if the
-     * child runs longer than `timeout` milliseconds.
-     *
-     * Unlike the [`exec(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/exec.3.html) POSIX system call, `child_process.exec()` does not replace
-     * the existing process and uses a shell to execute the command.
-     *
-     * If this method is invoked as its `util.promisify()` ed version, it returns
-     * a `Promise` for an `Object` with `stdout` and `stderr` properties. The returned`ChildProcess` instance is attached to the `Promise` as a `child` property. In
-     * case of an error (including any error resulting in an exit code other than 0), a
-     * rejected promise is returned, with the same `error` object given in the
-     * callback, but with two additional properties `stdout` and `stderr`.
-     *
-     * ```js
-     * const util = require('util');
-     * const exec = util.promisify(require('child_process').exec);
-     *
-     * async function lsExample() {
-     *   const { stdout, stderr } = await exec('ls');
-     *   console.log('stdout:', stdout);
-     *   console.error('stderr:', stderr);
-     * }
-     * lsExample();
-     * ```
-     *
-     * If the `signal` option is enabled, calling `.abort()` on the corresponding`AbortController` is similar to calling `.kill()` on the child process except
-     * the error passed to the callback will be an `AbortError`:
-     *
-     * ```js

-     * built-in that allows messages to be passed back and forth between the parent and
-     * child. See `subprocess.send()` for details.
-     *
-     * Keep in mind that spawned Node.js child processes are
-     * independent of the parent with exception of the IPC communication channel
-     * that is established between the two. Each process has its own memory, with
-     * their own V8 instances. Because of the additional resource allocations
-     * required, spawning a large number of child Node.js processes is not
-     * recommended.
-     *
-     * By default, `child_process.fork()` will spawn new Node.js instances using the `process.execPath` of the parent process. The `execPath` property in the`options` object allows for an alternative
-     * execution path to be used.
-     *
-     * Node.js processes launched with a custom `execPath` will communicate with the
-     * parent process using the file descriptor (fd) identified using the
-     * environment variable `NODE_CHANNEL_FD` on the child process.
-     *
-     * Unlike the [`fork(2)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/fork.2.html) POSIX system call, `child_process.fork()` does not clone the
-     * current process.
-     *
-     * The `shell` option available in {@link spawn} is not supported by`child_process.fork()` and will be ignored if set.
-     *
-     * If the `signal` option is enabled, calling `.abort()` on the corresponding`AbortController` is similar to calling `.kill()` on the child process except
-     * the error passed to the callback will be an `AbortError`:

+/**
+ * The `child_process` module provides the ability to spawn subprocesses in
+ * a manner that is similar, but not identical, to [`popen(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/popen.3.html). This capability
+ * is primarily provided by the {@link spawn} function:
+ *
+ * ```js
+ * const { spawn } = require('child_process');
+ * const ls = spawn('ls', ['-lh', '/usr']);
+ *
+ * ls.stdout.on('data', (data) => {
+ *   console.log(`stdout: ${data}`);
+ * });
+ *
+ * ls.stderr.on('data', (data) => {
+ *   console.error(`stderr: ${data}`);
+ * });
+ *
+ * ls.on('close', (code) => {
+ *   console.log(`child process exited with code ${code}`);
+ * });
+ * ```
+ *
+ * By default, pipes for `stdin`, `stdout`, and `stderr` are established between
+ * the parent Node.js process and the spawned subprocess. These pipes have
+ * limited (and platform-specific) capacity. If the subprocess writes to
+ * stdout in excess of that limit without the output being captured, the
+ * subprocess blocks waiting for the pipe buffer to accept more data. This is
+ * identical to the behavior of pipes in the shell. Use the `{ stdio: 'ignore' }`option if the output will not be consumed.
+ *
+ * The command lookup is performed using the `options.env.PATH` environment
+ * variable if it is in the `options` object. Otherwise, `process.env.PATH` is
+ * used.
+ *
+ * On Windows, environment variables are case-insensitive. Node.js
+ * lexicographically sorts the `env` keys and uses the first one that
+ * case-insensitively matches. Only first (in lexicographic order) entry will be
+ * passed to the subprocess. This might lead to issues on Windows when passing
+ * objects to the `env` option that have multiple variants of the same key, such as`PATH` and `Path`.
+ *
+ * The {@link spawn} method spawns the child process asynchronously,
+ * without blocking the Node.js event loop. The {@link spawnSync} function provides equivalent functionality in a synchronous manner that blocks
+ * the event loop until the spawned process either exits or is terminated.
+ *
+ * For convenience, the `child_process` module provides a handful of synchronous
+ * and asynchronous alternatives to {@link spawn} and {@link spawnSync}. Each of these alternatives are implemented on
+ * top of {@link spawn} or {@link spawnSync}.
+ *
+ * * {@link exec}: spawns a shell and runs a command within that
+ * shell, passing the `stdout` and `stderr` to a callback function when
+ * complete.
+ * * {@link execFile}: similar to {@link exec} except
+ * that it spawns the command directly without first spawning a shell by
+ * default.
+ * * {@link fork}: spawns a new Node.js process and invokes a
+ * specified module with an IPC communication channel established that allows
+ * sending messages between parent and child.
+ * * {@link execSync}: a synchronous version of {@link exec} that will block the Node.js event loop.
+ * * {@link execFileSync}: a synchronous version of {@link execFile} that will block the Node.js event loop.
+ *
+ * For certain use cases, such as automating shell scripts, the `synchronous counterparts` may be more convenient. In many cases, however,
+ * the synchronous methods can have significant impact on performance due to
+ * stalling the event loop while spawned processes complete.
+ * @see [source](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/v16.7.0/lib/child_process.js)

+         * There is a special case when sending a `{cmd: 'NODE_foo'}` message. Messages
+         * containing a `NODE_` prefix in the `cmd` property are reserved for use within
+         * Node.js core and will not be emitted in the child's `'message'` event. Rather, such messages are emitted using the`'internalMessage'` event and are consumed internally by Node.js.
+         * Applications should avoid using such messages or listening for`'internalMessage'` events as it is subject to change without notice.
+         *
+         * The optional `sendHandle` argument that may be passed to `subprocess.send()` is
+         * for passing a TCP server or socket object to the child process. The child will
+         * receive the object as the second argument passed to the callback function
+         * registered on the `'message'` event. Any data that is received
+         * and buffered in the socket will not be sent to the child.
+         *
+         * The optional `callback` is a function that is invoked after the message is
+         * sent but before the child may have received it. The function is called with a
+         * single argument: `null` on success, or an `Error` object on failure.
+         *
+         * If no `callback` function is provided and the message cannot be sent, an`'error'` event will be emitted by the `ChildProcess` object. This can
+         * happen, for instance, when the child process has already exited.
+         *
+         * `subprocess.send()` will return `false` if the channel has closed or when the
+         * backlog of unsent messages exceeds a threshold that makes it unwise to send
+         * more. Otherwise, the method returns `true`. The `callback` function can be
+         * used to implement flow control.
+         *
+         * #### Example: sending a server object
+         *
+         * The `sendHandle` argument can be used, for instance, to pass the handle of
+         * a TCP server object to the child process as illustrated in the example below:
+         *
+         * ```js
+         * const subprocess = require('child_process').fork('subprocess.js');
+         *
+         * // Open up the server object and send the handle.
+         * const server = require('net').createServer();
+         * server.on('connection', (socket) => {
+         *   socket.end('handled by parent');
+         * });
+         * server.listen(1337, () => {
+         *   subprocess.send('server', server);
+         * });
+         * ```
+         *
+         * The child would then receive the server object as:
+         *
+         * ```js
+         * process.on('message', (m, server) => {
+         *   if (m === 'server') {
+         *     server.on('connection', (socket) => {
+         *       socket.end('handled by child');
+         *     });
+         *   }
+         * });
+         * ```
+         *
+         * Once the server is now shared between the parent and child, some connections
+         * can be handled by the parent and some by the child.
+         *
+         * While the example above uses a server created using the `net` module, `dgram`module servers use exactly the same workflow with the exceptions of listening on
+         * a `'message'` event instead of `'connection'` and using `server.bind()` instead
+         * of `server.listen()`. This is, however, currently only supported on Unix
+         * platforms.
+         *
+         * #### Example: sending a socket object
+         *
+         * Similarly, the `sendHandler` argument can be used to pass the handle of a
+         * socket to the child process. The example below spawns two children that each
+         * handle connections with "normal" or "special" priority:
+         *
+         * ```js
+         * const { fork } = require('child_process');
+         * const normal = fork('subprocess.js', ['normal']);
+         * const special = fork('subprocess.js', ['special']);
+         *
+         * // Open up the server and send sockets to child. Use pauseOnConnect to prevent
+         * // the sockets from being read before they are sent to the child process.
+         * const server = require('net').createServer({ pauseOnConnect: true });
+         * server.on('connection', (socket) => {
+         *
+         *   // If this is special priority...
+         *   if (socket.remoteAddress === '74.125.127.100') {
+         *     special.send('socket', socket);
+         *     return;
+         *   }
+         *   // This is normal priority.
+         *   normal.send('socket', socket);
+         * });
+         * server.listen(1337);
+         * ```
+         *
+         * The `subprocess.js` would receive the socket handle as the second argument
+         * passed to the event callback function:
+         *
+         * ```js
+         * process.on('message', (m, socket) => {
+         *   if (m === 'socket') {
+         *     if (socket) {
+         *       // Check that the client socket exists.
+         *       // It is possible for the socket to be closed between the time it is
+         *       // sent and the time it is received in the child process.
+         *       socket.end(`Request handled with ${process.argv[2]} priority`);
+         *     }
+         *   }
+         * });
+         * ```
+         *
+         * Do not use `.maxConnections` on a socket that has been passed to a subprocess.
+         * The parent cannot track when the socket is destroyed.
+         *
+         * Any `'message'` handlers in the subprocess should verify that `socket` exists,
+         * as the connection may have been closed during the time it takes to send the
+         * connection to the child.

+     * Certain platforms (macOS, Linux) will use the value of `argv[0]` for the process

+     *
+     * Node.js currently overwrites `argv[0]` with `process.execPath` on startup, so`process.argv[0]` in a Node.js child process will not match the `argv0`parameter passed to `spawn` from the parent,
+     * retrieve it with the`process.argv0` property instead.

+     * directly by the shell and special characters (vary based on[shell](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_command-line_interpreters))
+     * need to be dealt with accordingly:
+     *
+     * ```js
+     * const { exec } = require('child_process');
+     *
+     * exec('"/path/to/test file/test.sh" arg1 arg2');

+     *
+     * exec('echo "The \\$HOME variable is $HOME"');
+     * // The $HOME variable is escaped in the first instance, but not in the second.
+     * ```
+     *
+     * **Never pass unsanitized user input to this function. Any input containing shell**
+     * **metacharacters may be used to trigger arbitrary command execution.**
+     *
+     * If a `callback` function is provided, it is called with the arguments`(error, stdout, stderr)`. On success, `error` will be `null`. On error,`error` will be an instance of `Error`. The
+     * `error.code` property will be
+     * the exit code of the process. By convention, any exit code other than `0`indicates an error. `error.signal` will be the signal that terminated the
+     * process.
+     *
+     * The `stdout` and `stderr` arguments passed to the callback will contain the
+     * stdout and stderr output of the child process. By default, Node.js will decode
+     * the output as UTF-8 and pass strings to the callback. The `encoding` option
+     * can be used to specify the character encoding used to decode the stdout and
+     * stderr output. If `encoding` is `'buffer'`, or an unrecognized character
+     * encoding, `Buffer` objects will be passed to the callback instead.
+     *
+     * ```js
+     * const { exec } = require('child_process');
+     * exec('cat *.js missing_file | wc -l', (error, stdout, stderr) => {
+     *   if (error) {
+     *     console.error(`exec error: ${error}`);
+     *     return;
+     *   }
+     *   console.log(`stdout: ${stdout}`);
+     *   console.error(`stderr: ${stderr}`);
+     * });
+     * ```
+     *
+     * If `timeout` is greater than `0`, the parent will send the signal
+     * identified by the `killSignal` property (the default is `'SIGTERM'`) if the
+     * child runs longer than `timeout` milliseconds.
+     *
+     * Unlike the [`exec(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/exec.3.html) POSIX system call, `child_process.exec()` does not replace
+     * the existing process and uses a shell to execute the command.
+     *
+     * If this method is invoked as its `util.promisify()` ed version, it returns
+     * a `Promise` for an `Object` with `stdout` and `stderr` properties. The returned`ChildProcess` instance is attached to the `Promise` as a `child` property. In
+     * case of an error (including any error resulting in an exit code other than 0), a
+     * rejected promise is returned, with the same `error` object given in the
+     * callback, but with two additional properties `stdout` and `stderr`.
+     *
+     * ```js
+     * const util = require('util');
+     * const exec = util.promisify(require('child_process').exec);

+     * The `child_process.fork()` method is a special case of {@link spawn} used specifically to spawn new Node.js processes.
+     * Like {@link spawn}, a `ChildProcess` object is returned. The
+     * returned `ChildProcess` will have an additional communication channel
+     * built-in that allows messages to be passed back and forth between the parent and
+     * child. See `subprocess.send()` for details.
+     *
+     * Keep in mind that spawned Node.js child processes are
+     * independent of the parent with exception of the IPC communication channel
+     * that is established between the two. Each process has its own memory, with
+     * their own V8 instances. Because of the additional resource allocations
+     * required, spawning a large number of child Node.js processes is not
+     * recommended.
+     *
+     * By default, `child_process.fork()` will spawn new Node.js instances using the `process.execPath` of the parent process. The `execPath` property in the`options` object allows for an alternative
+     * execution path to be used.
+     *
+     * Node.js processes launched with a custom `execPath` will communicate with the
+     * parent process using the file descriptor (fd) identified using the
+     * environment variable `NODE_CHANNEL_FD` on the child process.
+     *
+     * Unlike the [`fork(2)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/fork.2.html) POSIX system call, `child_process.fork()` does not clone the
+     * current process.
+     *
+     * The `shell` option available in {@link spawn} is not supported by`child_process.fork()` and will be ignored if set.
+     *
+     * If the `signal` option is enabled, calling `.abort()` on the corresponding`AbortController` is similar to calling `.kill()` on the child process except
+     * the error passed to the callback will be an `AbortError`:
+     *
+     * ```js
+     * if (process.argv[2] === 'child') {
+     *   setTimeout(() => {
+     *     console.log(`Hello from ${process.argv[2]}!`);
+     *   }, 1_000);
+     * } else {
+     *   const { fork } = require('child_process');
+     *   const controller = new AbortController();
+     *   const { signal } = controller;
+     *   const child = fork(__filename, ['child'], { signal });
+     *   child.on('error', (err) => {
+     *     // This will be called with err being an AbortError if the controller aborts
+     *   });
+     *   controller.abort(); // Stops the child process
+     * }
+     * ```
