+ * raw_clone() - uses clone to create a new process with clone flags
+ * @flags: Flags to pass to the clone system call
+ *
+ * Uses the clone system call to create a new process with the cloning
+ * flags and termination signal passed in the flags parameter. Opposed
+ * to glibc's clone funtion, using this function does not set up a
+ * separate stack for the child, but relies on copy-on-write semantics
+ * on the one stack at a common virtual address, just as fork does.
+ *
+ * To obtain copy-on-write semantics, flags must not contain CLONE_VM,
+ * and thus CLONE_THREAD and CLONE_SIGHAND (which require CLONE_VM) are
+ * not usabale.
+ * Additionally, as this function does not pass the ptid, newtls and ctid
+ * parameters to the kernel, flags must not contain CLONE_PARENT_SETTID,
+ * CLONE_CHILD_SETTID, CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID or CLONE_SETTLS.
+ *
+ * Returns: 0 in the child process and the child process id in the parent.
