The man page for fork() says: "· All interval timers are cleared; see setitimer(2)." So clearly ITIMER_VIRTUAL should be cleared as well, but a quick test showed that a fork()ed child still has the VIRTUAL (& PROF) timer running. Is this right? -- http://www-i2.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/stolz/ *** PGP *** S/MIME rage against the finite state machine
