55These functions represent an Apple extension to
56.Xr posix_spawn 2
57and
58.Xr posix_spawnp 2 ,

62The
63.Fn posix_spawnattr_setspecialport_np
64function sets a new value for a
65.Em Mach
66special port into the value referenced by
67.Fa attr
68to the port referenced by
69.Fa new_port
70for a port value of
71.Fa which ,
72as if the new process had called
73.Fn task_set_special_port .

81for a number of exception ports represented by the bitfield
82.Fa mask ,
83and sets the new default
84.Fa behavior
