Microsoft does control the kernel, and given that, none of this stuff is particularly complicated.
As for choosing "_exactly_ the right behavior" ... the whole point of POSIX is to clearly define the exact right behavior!
- dragonwriter 11y agoSure, its "easy" if Microsoft wants to redefine Windows in POSIX terms; iits not easy to keep Windows functioning as Windows and provide a POSIX compatibility layer, since Windows isn't designed around POSIX expectations.
- teacup50 11y agoDo you actually have specifics, here? I'm happy to discuss things like how to model fork() in-kernel.
