Function parse_pid_file 

Source
pub fn parse_pid_file(text: &str) -> Result<u32, PidFileError>
Expand description

Parse the text of a PID file (its first line, trimmed). Only a decimal PID in 2..=i32::MAX is accepted; empty text, garbage, signs, zero, PID 1 and overflowing values are refused, so a corrupt file can never become a signal target.
