Linux C编程--fork 详解

               

在Linux系统下学习一个系统函数最好的方法就是阅读其源码，首先，给出fork函数的源码

/**  linux/kernel/fork.c*                                //－－fork()用于创建子进程*  (C) 1991  Linus Torvalds*//**  'fork.c' contains the help-routines for the 'fork' system call* (see also system_call.s), and some misc functions ('verify_area').* Fork is rather simple, once you get the hang of it, but the memory* management can be a bitch. See 'mm/mm.c': 'copy_page_tables()'*/#include <errno.h>#include <linux/sched.h>#include <linux/kernel.h>#include <asm/segment.h>#include <asm/system.h>                                //－－写页面验证，若页面不可写，则复制页面extern void write_verify(unsigned long address);long last_pid=0;                                //－－进程空间区域写前验证函数void verify_area(void * addr,int size){    unsigned long start;    start = (unsigned long) addr;    size += start & 0xfff;    start &= 0xfffff000;    start += get_base(current->ldt[2]);        //－－逻辑地址到线性地址的转换    while (size>0) {        size -= 4096;        write_verify(start);        start += 4096;    }}int
