os.fork() is a low level system call wrapper. Anyone using it needs to deal with flushing whatever buffers their application has before forking among many many other things. There is a reason it lives in the os module.
It is already a dangerous system call to use from Python (ie: your child is likely to lock up if your parent had any threads). There really is nothing we can or should do to make it better. |
