3.2.5.2 Prozesskontrollblock unter Linux
Das folgende Videos zeigt, wie man in den Quelltexten des Linux-Kernels die Deklaration des Linux-Prozesskontrollblocks (task_struct) findet, und wie der Zusammenhang mit der Prozesstabelle ist.

task_struct: Deklaration des Linux-Prozesskontrollblocks
Der folgende Auszug aus der Quelltext-Datei sched.h des Linux-Kernels (Version 3.13.0) zeigt die Deklaration der Datenstruktur task_struct. Dabei handelt es sich um den Prozesskontrollblock, wie er von Linux verwendet wird.
