Aside from the for(;;) wait(0); loop, there’s little in common between the Linux and, say, BSD implementations of init, especially in recent versions. The name for the process whose PID is one has been around for a long time, but Linux has had three or four wildly different implementations over its short life. Linux is not Unix. It provides a Posix interface just like The *BSDs, Darwin and OpenVMS do, but don’t make the mistake of assuming that they have anything much in common. The everything-is-a-file paradigm does not apply to everything in Linux by a long way; if you want to follow that then I suggest you look to Plan9. jch |
