Thanks, I did the same with system("p2") in this case I get the
LD_DEBUG=reloc information for both, knowing that system() works, I
checked its fork:exec implementation. As you suggested, I did
execve("./p2", NULL, __environ), in this case also I did not get p2
information, finally I did
char *argv={"./p2",NULL};
execve("./p2", argv, __environ); now this works perfect.
3 arg is mandatory, but I did not understand, Why I need to pass 2nd arg ?
