| |
<HTML> I am porting an FullText database engine to Linux (Sparc) and have problems.
<P>On my sparc machine the entire file system is mounted NFS from a Linux Intel box. (root=nfs)
<P>The first process create a fifo file on /tmp, then the child process open the same file for reading. <BR>Then it is mmap, and when both have the file open it is then unlink'ed.
<P>Now if that file is lying on the NFS, I get an nfs error and the process die! <BR>But if I move it to a physical disk I don't get this error.
<P>Is that normal? <BR>If not I can send you the exact error message and probably some portion of the related code.
