+.Pp
+The
+.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_addinherit_np
+function adds an abstract inheritance operation to the
+list of operations associated with the object referenced by
+.Em file_actions ,
+for subsequent use in a call to
+.Xr posix_spawn 2
+or
+.Xr posix_spawnp 2 .
+The pre-existing descriptor referred to by
+.Em filedes
+is marked for inheritance into the new process image, and the
+.Em FD_CLOEXEC
+flag is cleared from the file descriptor in the new process image.
+.Pp
+Normally, for
+.Xr posix_spawn 2
+and
+.Xr posix_spawnp 2 ,
+all file descriptors are inherited from the parent process
+into the spawned process, except for those explicitly
+marked as close-on-exec.  However if the flag
+.Em POSIX_SPAWN_CLOEXEC_DEFAULT
+is set, then during the spawn operation, all pre-existing
+file descriptors in the parent process are treated as if they
+had been marked close-on-exec i.e. none of them are automatically
+inherited.  See
+.Xr posix_spawnattr_setflags 3 .
+Only file descriptors explicitly manipulated via 
+.Em file_actions
+are made available in the spawned process. In that case,
+.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_addinherit_np
+can be used to make specific pre-existing file
+descriptors from the parent process be
+available in the spawned process.
