[Lcd4linux-devel] uClinux patch (fork/vfork)

[Michael R. <re...@eu...>]

Hi Hans,

I just had a look at your patch. You did change fork() to vfork in the
daemonize() function; this has changed to a double-fork in the current code.

And there's a 2nd area where fork is used: the thread management. Don't
you use/need it at all?

for the first daemonize: As there's no exec() after the vfork(), the
caller process would block. Is this what you want? Or should I
completely skip the daemonize stuff on uclinux?

TIA, Michael
