Source code for execve ()

Question

Could you give me the source code for the execve () system call (exec family). I work with linux.

Answer 1

execve () calls sys_execve (), which calls do_execve (), where the action is located: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f = fs / exec.c # l1376

Answer 2

You can look at sys_execve in arch / x86 / kernel / process.c , which calls do_execve on fs / exec.c.

Answer 3

The entry point for execve() here on the Linux cross-reference page. You can follow function links ( do_execve() , probably what you really need) to see the source code.

Answer 4

You can get the linux source code on the page > To view inline use the git viewer
