"""
This file implements the Boss of Bind (BoB, or bob) program.

Its purpose is to start up the BIND 10 system, and then manage the
processes, by starting and stopping processes, plus restarting
processes that exit.

To start the system, it first runs the c-channel program (msgq), then
connects to that. It then runs the configuration manager, and reads
its own configuration. Then it proceeds to starting other modules.

The Python subprocess module is used for starting processes, but
because this is not efficient for managing groups of processes,
SIGCHLD signals are caught and processed using the signal module.

Most of the logic is contained in the BoB class. However, since Python
requires that signal processing happen in the main thread, we do
signal handling outside of that class, in the code running for
__main__.

Keeps state when restarting something (in this case, a process).

When a process dies unexpectedly, we need to restart it. However, if 
it fails to restart for some reason, then we should not simply keep
restarting it at high speed.

A more sophisticated algorithm can be developed, but for now we choose
a simple set of rules:

  * If a process was been running for >=10 seconds, we restart it
    right away.
  * If a process was running for <10 seconds, we wait until 10 seconds
    after it was started.

To avoid programs getting into lockstep, we use a normal distribution
to avoid being restarted at exactly 10 seconds."""
