Message-ID: <adazmkv13od.fsf@cisco.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060213154114.GO32041@mellanox.co.il> (Michael S. Tsirkin's message of "Mon, 13 Feb 2006 17:41:14 +0200")
One question, which I'm too lazy to read the source to answer: what
does an old (pre-MADV_DONTFORK) kernel do with an application that
tries to set MADV_DONTFORK?
I'm wondering what portable applications will have to do to handle the
case of a new application running on an old kernel.
Thanks,
Roland
