From 4dad657dec442052da2177e713e2008862fa1647 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sander Vrijders Date: Fri, 23 Feb 2018 16:17:12 +0100 Subject: irmd: Replace fork and execv with posix_spawn This replaces the fork and execv calls with posix_spawn since it is supported on more platforms, and is more efficient. Also fixes some bad indentation.
