Does the following disclaimer still apply?
"Fork support from kernel 2.6.12 and above is available provided that applications do not use threads. The fork() is supported as long as parent process does not run before child exits or calls exec(). The former can be achieved by calling wait(childpid) the later can be achieved by application specific means. Posix system() call is supported." _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
