I would expect lots of packages use fork() or > similar. fork() is common, but the vast majority of the time it's to do an exec which makes them trivial to convert to vfork(). realistically, build problems with uClibc vs glibc tend to be more common. > Out of interest, what packages are you using on nommu? i've played doom on my hardware, made video/voip calls via linphone, browsed the web with qt/webkit, and served web pages from sqlite/php (to name a few). we treat it as a generic Linux platform like any other arch rather than pigeonhole it as a "firewall" or something. i dont really keep track as it'd kind of be like asking what packages have i used on an mmu. -mike -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
