It's doable, just a pain in the butt. I am dreaming of doing an "atomic" cp /proc/pid/<> newhost:/proc/ *g* Seriously: Shouldn't be all information relating to a process and it's resource reside in /proc? This might be the first step to get process migration going, since then you could implement a clean interface. (You can implement this using other tricks, but using the proc fs has a certain "clean" and consistent appeal to me) -- Lars Marowsky-Brée :homepage email: \ geek, BOFH, psychopath, magician, / http://teuto.net/~lmb/ lmb@teuto.net \ killer, looney, genius, pervert / pgp-key-id: 0x09e360c5 / ff 2a 82 e8 6b 85 79 23 9c da b5 81 d4 fc 29 e6 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu | ||||||||||||
