Description-en: Userspace tools to Checkpoint and Restart Linux processes
BLCR (Berkeley Lab Checkpoint/Restart) allows programs running on
Linux to be "checkpointed" (written entirely to a file), and then
later "restarted".
.
BLCR can checkpoint both single- and multithreaded (pthreads)
programs linked with the NPTL implementation of pthreads. BLCR is
also able to save and restore groups of related processes together
with the pipes that connect them.
.
This package contains utilities needed to launch and restart
unmodified processes with checkpointing support.
