Nope. We just never bothered to disable it on osx. I think Jeff was working on a patch. -Nathan > On Sep 28, 2018, at 3:21 PM, Barrett, Brian via devel > wrote: > > Is there any practical reason to have the memory patcher component enabled > for MacOS? As far as I know, we don’t have any t

[OMPI devel] Patcher on MacOS

2018-09-28 Thread Barrett, Brian via devel
Is there any practical reason to have the memory patcher component enabled for MacOS? As far as I know, we don’t have any transports which require memory hooks on MacOS, and with the recent deprecation of the syscall interface, it emits a couple of warnings. It would be nice to crush said warn

Fun fact: we cause configure to fail for OS X <= 10.4 anyway: https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/blob/master/configure.ac#L328-L347 According to the comment, we do this because of a known-bad implementation of pty in the OS X kernel that causes kernel panics. So I think we're definitely safe
