A sample program to demonstrate the use of fork and execve system calls on Linux.
This repository support code for my article explaining the internals of the fork system call.
There are two programs here, one is a C program in fork_test.c and a similar program but in x86 assembly in fork.s file.
To compile both of these, you need to have GNU Make installed on your system. To build, simple run make on the command line.
It will generate two binaries: fork_test from fork_test.c and fork from fork.s.
