task_struct

關於task_struct的具體介紹，見

http://blog.csdn.net/npy_lp/article/details/7292563

它定義在linux-3.18.6/include/linux/sched.h文件中。

進程（Process）是系統進行資源分配和調度的基本單位，一個進程是一個程式的運行實例。而在Linux中，可以使用一個進程來創建另外一個進程。這樣的話，Linux的進程的組織結

構其實有點像Linux目錄樹，是個層次結構的,可以使用 pstree命令來查看。在最上面是init程式的執行進程。它是所有進程的老祖宗。Linux提供了兩個函數來創建進程。

1.fork()

fork()提供了創建進程的基本操作，可以說它是Linux系統多任務的基礎。該函數在/linux-3.18.6/kernel/fork.c。

2.exec系列函數

如果只有fork()，肯定是不完美的，因為fork()只能參數一個父進程的副本。而exec系列函數則可以幫助我們建立一個全新的新進程。

在Linux系統中，一個進程的PCB是一個C語言的結構體task_struct來表示，而多個PCB之間是由一個雙向鏈表組織起來的，在《Understanding the Linux Kernel》中，則是進一步描

述這個鏈表是一個雙向迴圈鏈表。

在Linux中創建一個新進程的方法是使用fork函數，fork()執行一次但有兩個返回值。

在父進程中，返回值是子進程的進程號；在子進程中，返回值為0。因此可通過返回值來判斷當前進程是父進程還是子進程。

使用fork函數得到的子進程是父進程的一個複製品，它從父進程處複製了整個進程的地址空間，包括進程上下文，進程堆棧，記憶體信息，打開的文件描述符，信號控制設定，進程優

先級，進程組號，當前工作目錄，根目錄，資源限制，控制終端等。而子進程所獨有的只是它的進程號，資源使用和計時器等。可以看出，使用 fork函數的代價是很大的，它複製了

父進程中的代碼段，數據段和堆棧段里的大部分內容，使得fork函數的執行速度並不快。

創建一個進程，至少涉及的函數：

sys_clone, do_fork, dup_task_struct, copy_process, copy_thread, ret_from_fork

這隻是圖中的fork一個分支

進程的描述

1.進程描述符task_struct數據結構（一）

為了管理進程，內核必須對每個進程進行清晰的描述，進程描述符提供了內核所需瞭解的進程信息。

struct task_struct數據結構很龐大
Linux進程的狀態與操作系統原理中的描述的進程狀態似乎有所不同，比如就緒狀態和運行狀態都是TASK_RUNNING，為什麼呢？
進程的標示pid
所有進程鏈表struct list_head tasks; 內核的雙向迴圈鏈表的實現方法 - 一個更簡略的雙向迴圈鏈表
程式創建的進程具有父子關係，在編程時往往需要引用這樣的父子關係。進程描述符中有幾個域用來表示這樣的關係
Linux為每個進程分配一個8KB大小的記憶體區域，用於存放該進程兩個不同的數據結構：Thread_info和進程的內核堆棧

　　　　　　進程處於內核態時使用，不同於用戶態堆棧，即PCB中指定了內核棧，那為什麼PCB中沒有用戶態堆棧？用戶態堆棧是怎麼設定的？

　　　　　　內核控制路徑所用的堆棧很少，因此對棧和Thread_info來說，8KB足夠了

struct thread_struct thread; //CPU-specific state of this task
文件系統和文件描述符
記憶體管理——進程的地址空間

進程狀態的切換過程和原因大致如下圖：

雙向迴圈鏈表圖如下：

進程的父子關係直觀圖：

進程的創建

1.進程的創建概覽及fork一個進程的用戶態代碼

（1）進程的起源再回顧

道生一（start_kernel...cpu_idle）
一生二(kernel_init和kthreadd)
二生三（即前面的0、1、2三個進程）
三生萬物（1號進程是所有用戶態進程的祖先，2號進程是所有內核線程的祖先）

（2）0號進程手工寫，1號進程複製、載入init程式

（3）shell命令行是如何啟動進程的

fork一個子進程的代碼：

 1   #include <stdio.h>
 2   #include <stdlib.h>
 3   #include <unistd.h>
 4   int main(int argc, char * argv[])
 5   {
 6       int pid;
 7       /* fork another process */
 8       pid = fork();
 9       if (pid < 0)   出錯處理
10      { 
11          /* error occurred */
12          fprintf(stderr,"Fork Failed!");
13          exit(-1);
14      } 
15      else if (pid == 0) 
16      {
17          /* child process */  子進程   pid=0時 if和else都會執行  fork系統調用在父進程和子進程各返回一次
18          printf("This is Child Process!\n");
19      } 
20      else 
21      {  
22          /* parent process  */
23          printf("This is Parent Process!\n");
