Dynamic linking on Linux

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

     In the case of dynamic linking, a single instance of a dynamic library is loaded into memory and mapped into the address space of each process that needs it.

Now a new process is loaded to memory, which utilizes a .so already in memory. How does ld.so know if the required .so is already in memory and what is its physical address?

Thanks and Regards,
Shyamal
