    The document describes a C program that uses UNIX system calls fork, getpid, and exit. The program forks a child process, uses getpid to retrieve the process IDs of the parent and child, and exits. It demonstrates checking the return values of fork to determine if the child process was created successfully and using getpid to print the IDs of the parent and child processes before exiting. The program is executed and the output shows the parent and child process IDs.

    1.

    Write programs using the following system calls of UNIX operating system: fork, exec, getpid, exit Aim : To write a C program using the system calls - fork, exec, getpid, exit Algorithm : 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Start the program Include header files Create a process using system call Check if result of fork is successful if fork() returns a negative value, the creation of a child process was unsuccessful if fork() returns a zero value, the new child process is created Moreover, a process can use function getpid() to retrieve the process ID assigned to this process. Stop the program

    Result : Thus the program using the system calls - fork, exec, getpid, exit is executed and verified

    SYSTEM CALLS USING FORK,GETPID,EXIT Source Code:#include <stdio.h> main() { int pid,pid1; www.Technicalsymposium.com

    pid=fork(); if(pid==-1) { printf(Error in fork); exit(0); } if(pid==0) { pid1=fork(); exit(0); } printf(\n parent id: %d,getppid()); printf(\n Child id : %d,getpid()); }

    OUTPUT:Parent id Child id : 3233 : 3664
