A "normal" jobserver task, like the one initiated by a make subrocess would do: - open read/write file descriptors to communicate with the job server; - ask for one slot by calling: claim = os.read(reader, 1) - when the job finshes, call: os.write(writer, b"+") # os.write(writer, claim) Here, the goal is different: This script aims to get the remaining number of slots available, using all of them to run a command which handle tasks in parallel. To to that, it has a loop that ends only after there are no slots left. It then increments the number by one, in order to allow a call equivalent to make -j$((claim+1)), e.g. having a parent make creating $claim child to do the actual work. The end goal here is to keep the total number of build tasks under the limit established by the initial make -j$n_proc call.
