code 15 213 F 06 The World of Multitasking System Runs Many Processes Concurrently Process executing program z State consists of memory image register values program counter Continually switches from one process to another z Suspend process when it needs I O resource or timer event occurs z Resume process when I O available or given scheduling priority Appears to user s as if all processes executing simultaneously z Even though most systems can only execute one process at a time z Except possibly with lower performance than if running alone 3 15 213 F 06 Programmer s Model of Multitasking Basic Functions fork spawns new process z Called once returns twice exit terminates own process z Called once never returns z Puts it into zombie status wait and waitpid wait for and reap terminated children execl and execve run a new program in an existing process z Called once normally never returns Programming Challenge Understanding the nonstandard semantics of the functions Avoiding improper use of system resources z E g Fork bombs can disable a system 4 15 213 F 06 Unix Process Hierarchy 0 init 1 Daemon e g httpd Login shell Child Child Grandchild 5 Child Grandchild 15
