Answer 1

Below one works fine for writing to pipe and reading from pipe as:

stop_daemon =123;
res = write(cli_pipe_fd_wr, &stop_daemon, sizeof(stop_daemon));
....
res = read(pipe_fd_rd, buffer, sizeof(int));
memcpy(&stop_daemon,buffer,sizeof(int));
printf("CLI process read from res:%d status:%d\n", res, stop_daemon);

output:

CLI process read from res:4 status:123
