《Linux内核深度解析》进程调度和多线程管理 [复制链接]

在Linux内核中，3个系统调用可以用来创建新的进程。

fork（分叉）：子进程是父进程的一个副本，采用了写时复制的技术
vfork：用于创建子进程，之后子进程立即调用execve以装载新程序的情况。为了避免复制物理页，父进程会睡眠等待子进程装载新程序。现在fork采用了写时复制的技术，vfork失去了速度优势，已经被废弃。
clone（克隆）：可以精确地控制子进程和父进程共享哪些资源。这个系统调用的主要用处是可供pthread库用来创建线程。其中clone是功能最齐全的函数，参数多，使用复杂，fork是clone的简化函数。
函数_do_fork，代码如下

long _do_fork(unsigned long clone_flags,	//克隆标志
	      unsigned long stack_start,	//用作指定新线程的用户栈的起始地址
	      unsigned long stack_size,		//指定新线程的用户栈的长度
	      int __user *parent_tidptr,		//新线程保存进程标识符的位置
	      int __user *child_tidptr,		//存放新线程保存进程标识符的位置
	      unsigned long tls)			//指定新线程本地存储的位置

5. 函数copy_process

创建新进程的主要工作由函数copy_process完成，代码如下
