Subject: process: New function process_run_capture().
X-Git-Tag: v0.90.3~3^2~3
X-Git-Url: http://git.onelab.eu/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b5dae6846aa511ce4347ce988beb685ad20afdcb;p=sliver-openvswitch.git

process: New function process_run_capture().

In an upcoming commit, ovs-brcompatd will need to create a subprocess and
capture both its stdout and stderr separately, which one cannot do with
simple interfaces such as popen().  This function provides that ability.
