bpo-31904: Add posix module support for VxWorks RTOS by pxinwr · Pull Request #12118 · python/cpython (original) (raw)
This is the successive PR after #11968. This PR enables posix module support for VxWorks RTOS. VxWorks doesn't support fork()/exec(). Instead, we use rtpSpawn() to spawn new processes.
More and full support on modules for VxWorks will continuously be added by the coming PRs.
VxWorks is a product developed and owned by Wind River. For VxWorks introduction or more details, go to https://www.windriver.com/products/vxworks/
Wind River will have a dedicated engineering team to contribute to the support as maintainers.
We already have a working buildbot worker internally, but has not bound to master. We will check the process for the buildbot, then add it.
