#914: Don't use fork() ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: ------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
Comment (by rhaas):
I believe fork() is ok. exec() can be a problem and so is doing anything with MPI in the forked() process (including and in particular calling MPI_Finalize).
