Does anyone have experience with portability of common IPC mechanisms between Linux 2.x and FreeBSD? I'm trying to estimate the risk of a porting project from Linux to FreeBSD. What peculiarities are there? Incompatibilities between the two OSs WRT to 'clean' implementation of these disciplines? sockets - feature set compatible? pipes - ? named pipes? mmap - stable? limitations? shmxxx - SYSV compatibility? Comments greatly appreciated. -- Chris Christoph P. U.
