In my experience threads and fork are not good bedfellows, you need to excercise care in order to avoid deadlock. - From the solaris fork() man page : fork() Safety If a multithreaded application calls fork() or fork1(), and the child does more than simply call one of the exec(2) functions, there is a possibility of deadlock occurring in the child. The application should use pthread_atfork(3C) to ensure safety with respect to this deadlock. Should there be any outstanding mutexes throughout the process, the applica- tion should call pthread_atfork() to wait for and acquire those mutexes prior to calling fork() or fork1(). See MT- Level of Libraries on the attributes(5) manual page. Using stdio in the child after fork in a multithreaded apps has caused me pain on many occasions, also std::string in c++.
