http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=249 It's not part of POSIX yet; but the current wording in that bug report is the probable starting point for including it in the next major revision of POSIX (which will be known as Issue 8, and is several years out on the horizon). The intent of the austingroupbugs.net pages is to document what people can start implementing now, even before POSIX finally makes it official. And this very issue has just been under some recent revisions; comment 2793 mentions that some wording revisions were proposed just last month. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
