<youpi>damo22: ok, NOTPARALLEL mystery solved: it's since make 4.4 that .NOTPARALLEL can take a prerequisite
<solid_black>good morning :)
<slex>a
<damo22>solid_black: thanks for review. do you think its important to comment about missing whitespace when there are real bugs you spotted?
<solid_black>was that annoying/unwanted?
<damo22>not really, but it wasnt really necessary imho
<slex_>solid_black: ty for the clarifications yesterday i have a cleaner idea of what i wan to do and the way (ioperm())
<solid_black>yes, ioperm it is, if you need to do x86 in/out
<solid_black>or likely libpciaccess if you want to do pci things, but damo22 would know better about that
<damo22>solid_black: how do i deallocate "all of psets" ?
<solid_black>with a loop I guess
<solid_black>iterate over them and call mach_port_deallocate on each
<damo22>fixed
<damo22>i dont know why you prefer execvp, i think its better without path detection so the path is explicit
<solid_black>all the other tools that accept a chained command to path lookup
<solid_black>sudo, nice, time, watch, ssh -- just to name a few
<damo22>in this case we want to know exactly which command we are chaining, not some random binary that resolves from PATH
