Any alternatives to IPC mechanism?
What if the operating systems would not use any ipc mechanism in order to exchange the datas with each other,which technique could be an alternative for messaging between the processes?Do you guys think using the vfork () system call to duplicate processes is a logical solution for this problem?

hwloc-ps
HWLOC-PS(1) hwloc HWLOC-PS(1)
NAME
hwloc-ps - List currently-running processes that are bound.
SYNOPSIS
hwloc-ps [options]
OPTIONS
-a list all processes, even those that are not bound to any specific part of the machine.
-p --physical
report OS/physical indexes instead of logical indexes
-l --logical
report logical indexes instead of physical/OS indexes (default)
-c --cpuset
show process bindings as cpusets instead of objects.
--whole-system
Do not consider administration limitations.
DESCRIPTION
By default, hwloc-ps lists only those currently-running processes that are bound; it displays their their identifier, command-line and
binding. The binding may be reported as objects or cpusets. By default, process bindings are restricted to the currently available topol-
ogy. If some processes are bound to processors that are not available to the current process, they are ignored unless --whole-system is
given. The output is a plain list. If you wish to annotate the hierarchical topology with processes so as to see how they are actual dis-
tributed on the machine, you might want to use lstopo --ps instead (which also only shows processes that are bound).
The -a switch can be used to show all processes, if desired.
