That is understood.

That cannot address the below case:
1. Primary starts;
2. Secondary one starts; (if we overwrite it without storing it in some 
other fields)
3. Secondary one exits;
4. Secondary two starts. (primary cannot share the fd with this 
secondary process now, as this fd does not mean anything to the primary 
process)

Thanks,
Jianfeng
