posix_spawnattr_destroy()
Destroy the spawn attributes object
Synopsis:
#include <spawn.h>
int posix_spawnattr_destroy(posix_spawnattr_t *attrp);
Arguments:

Description:
The posix_spawnattr_destroy() function destroys a spawn attributes object. You can reinitialize a destroyed attrp attributes object by using posix_spawnattr_init() ; the results of referencing the object after you've destroyed it are undefined.
A spawn attributes object is an opaque object of type posix_spawnattr_t (defined in <spawn.h>), and it specifies the inheritance of process attributes across a spawn operation.
The resulting spawn attributes object (possibly modified by setting individual attribute values), is used to modify the behavior of posix_spawn() or posix_spawnp(). After a spawn attributes object has been used to spawn a process by a call to a posix_spawn() or posix_spawnp(), any function affecting the attributes object (including destruction) doesn't affect any process that was spawned in this way.
Returns:
- EOK
- Success.
- EINVAL
- The value specified by attrp is invalid.
