Do we want to support shm created outside of ODP? Since ODP does not have full control over that memory, ODP cannot guarantee that application can use it in a portable way. Maybe it's better to operate such memory outside of ODP. If decided to support in ODP, it should be clearly separate from ODP controlled shm. -Petri _______________________________________________ lng-odp mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/lng-odp
