When a child-frame move to position (-1 . 0), it will hide its
parent-frame's mode-line and minibuffer, is it possible let child-frame
auto move above a little, and let it not hide its parent-frame's
mode-line and minibuffer?

I'm not sure why a position like (-1 . 0) should do that - did you
mean (0 . -1)?
But what is "auto" move? Positioning and sizing of child frames is
completely left to the caller with one exception: When the parent
frame is resized, the child frame may have to be resized and
repositioned too. IIRC we try to do that proportionally so it's
possible that the parent frame's mode line gets obscured. Is it that
you had in mind?

sorry, it is (0 . -1) :-)
If I move a child-frame to (0 . -1), it like this at the moment:

but I think the below result is more useful when I move a child-frame to
(0 . -1)

We should not inhibit placement there just as we allow a frame to hide
the taskbar of the window manager on the desktop. But we could
provide a parameter for child frames that would, if set, accomplish
that.
Could you try coding such a thing? The value to be added in the
y-direction should account for the internal border width of the frame,
the height of the minibuffer, a vertical window divider and the height
of the mode line if these are set. In the x-direction we then should
probably avoid hiding the internal border as well. And we probably
should disable the effect of this if it would cause the child frame to
no more fit into its parent at the top or the right.

this is a good idea

No, i do not fimilar the relate C and lisp code, the 2.png snapshot just a PS photo :-)

I have re-read the elisp documents and found it is not a problem :-), sorry for disturb...
A positive integer always relates the left edge of the frame
to the left edge of its display or parent frame. A negative
integer relates the right frame edge to the right edge of the
display or parent frame.
