From: "roland at gnu dot org" <sourceware-bugzilla@sources.redhat.com> To: glibc-bugs@sources.redhat.com Subject: [Bug nptl/378] posix_spawn implementation, use vfork/execve rather than fork/execve for NPTL Linux. Date: Sun, 12 Sep 2004 22:54:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <20040912225451.24725.qmail@sourceware.org> (raw) In-Reply-To: <20040910004801.378.dennis@mds.rmit.edu.au> ------- Additional Comments From roland at gnu dot org 2004-09-12 22:54 ------- I don't think the option should be about the implementation detail. If ought to be POSIX_SPAWN_NO_ATFORK, meaning that atfork handlers do not get run. In practice, that means calling vfork instead of fork. But the name and meaning of the switch should be about the application experience, not the system's implementation. -- http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=378 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
