Linux

I've been discussing whether Linux (or BSDI, or other shareware Unix-like o/s) can be made a part of Informix' porting strategy. At the moment, it appears that the answer is 'no' because Linux does not support features which Informix-OnLine needs. I don't have the precise details of what these absent features are, but candidates are: * System V IPC (shared memory) * System V IPC (semaphores) * System V TLI (transport layer interface) * System V Streams (for olipcstr connectivity) Does anyone who is sufficicently familiar with Linux know whether these features are available or not? I suspect that these are not the missing features, so if you volunteer an answer, can you also indicate whether I can tax you with other feature issues.
