is related to CDRIVER-3116 Do not disconnect sockets in mongoc_c... Closed
Quarter: FY24Q3

 Description   

The spec changes of DRIVERS-578 says:

Drivers MUST document the thread-safety and fork-safety limitations of sessions.

But fork safety is not mentioned in the docs for mongoc_client_session_t.

In general, depending on the outcome of CDRIVER-3116, it may be beneficial to document fork safety of mongoc_client_t in general (perhaps a page similar to this one).
