Ah ok, I see all of the cases you were looking to cover now!

While we figure out if we can leverage RAII and a static global smart pointer, 
we can start with a simple set of function utilities in stout (such that one 
could build the RAII wrapper on top of them, if needed).

For the static smart pointer, we currently follow Google's style guide rule to 
ban "static non-POD variables" in order to avoid destructor ordering issues and 
access during/after destruction issues:
https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Static_and_Global_Variables

We could try to justify an exception here, but it see

Well, I wrote it more like "you can remove it manually if you want but if you 
just forget about it nothing bad will happen" :) The lock will be released 
automatically when the fd is closed (e.g. on process termination).

I think current `SIGTERM` handling is an exceptional case here (even though I 
assume it is the most frequent way the daemon terminates). Another such case 
could be calling `std::_Exit()`. These are situations when usual cleanup is not 
performed and some manual actions may be required.

Do we want to always do cleanup manually and explicitly? If this is the 
accepted way in Mesos then of course RAII is not appliable here.

For testing. Although there's only 1 simple test.

A problem with the RAII class here is that we sometimes manually have to 
release the lock (in case of a signal). When I look at this patch I read 
something like "Hey, you don't have to close & remove the pidfile explicitly, 
we'll do that for you... well, unless your process is signaled". I'm inclined 
to require users call `removePidFile()` explicitly to avoid creaing a false 
feeling of safety.

Another question: Why do you want to expose `PIDFile` class in the `.hpp`?

Thanks for the feedback!

Yes, I saw `libbsd` but since it's not part of POSIX I decided to make things 
portable.

> Also it would be great to which process is already running

Good idea! I will add it.

> I noticed the use of RAII seemed unnecessary in your patch (only the .cpp

My intention was to try to be nice and clean up the PID file when daemon exits 
through `std::exit()` or terminates on `SIGTERM`. For handling the first case I 
created a static RAII object so its destructor will be called during 
`std::exit()` cleanup. We could place this object in `main()`. But here comes 
the second case. Our daemons perform default `SIGTERM` action which is `term`. 
There's a signal handler in `logging/logging.cpp` where we can unlink the file. 
For that I introduced a helper function and placed the RAII object inside 
`common/pid_file.cpp`.

So I think a RAII class is a good thing for implementing such thing. I'm OK 
with moving it to stout and restructuring patches.

Also I just thought that I should check if the destructor is executing inside 
the process that created the PID file to protect from unlinking by forked 
processes.

What do you think?

Thanks Ilya!

Have you looked at other pidfile related libraries? Looks like BSD provides 
some functions for this (they're also available on Linux):
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pidfile&sektion=3&manpath=FreeBSD+6.1-RELEASE
https://linux.die.net/man/3/pidfile

It would be great to provide an os-agnostic library within stout for this, e.g.:

```
pidfile::open()
pidfile::close()
pidfile::remove()
```

I haven't looked too deeply at what we should have these take and return, but I 
noticed the use of RAII seemed unnecessary in your patch (only the .cpp 
implementation uses the exposed RAII class? If so, perhaps we can just leave 
RAII out for now since the callers do not use it). Also it would be great to 
which process is already running (which is provided by the BSD/Linux 
functions). Also, another suggestion as a first step here is to avoid Windows 
support entirely for now if we don't implement the locking aspect of this (as 
that seems necessary for this to be safely usable?)

We could structure the patches like this:

(1) Addition of pidfile utilities to stout.
(2) Tests of the pidfile utilities in stout (should be possible?)
(3) Integration of the pidfile utilities into mesos (manually test since the 
logic will reside in the mains?)
