I actually needed to *add* the `-n` argument. Can you take a look at the new version and see if there's a better way of doing it? This method does work in my testing, but I'm unsure of the semantics of `posix_spawn` on NuttX. Does the `argv` array that I pass get copied to the child program (so that it is safe for me to `free()` it)? > to make fork work on NO-MMU device, the implementation on NuttX is very simple, and has many limitation. Is this in the NuttX docs? I could not find this mentioned and it's important for other users to be aware of too. It is likely obvious that `fork()` isn't meant for embedded environments, but a description of the limitations/differences between the architecture implementations would be good information to make available. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
