How does Linux copy a parent’s data to its child?
What will be an ideal response?
The child gets a pointer to the parent’s data region and the copy-on-write bit is set. If the child
process deallocates the data space, no copy is necessary. Only when the one of the processes
modifies the data is a separate copy created for the child.
