Here is a statement from OFED 1.3 alpha 2 release notes, it has not been changed for a few releases.
is there any update ? Thanks.
3. Fork support from kernel 2.6.12 and above is available provided
that applications do not use threads. The fork() is supported as long
as the parent process does not run before the child exits or calls exec().
The former can be achieved by calling wait(childpid), and the latter can be
achieved by application specific means. The Posix system() call is
supported.
