linux进程控制块(task_struct)

进程在操作系统中都有一个户口，用于表示这个进程。这个户口操作系统被称为PCB（进程控制块），在linux中具体实现是 task_struct数据结构，它记录了一下几个类型的信息：

1.状态信息，例如这个进程处于可执行状态，休眠，挂起等。

2.性质，由于unix有很多变种，进程有自己独特的性质。

3.资源，资源的链接比如内存，还有资源的限制和权限等。

4.组织，例如按照家族关系建立起来的树（父进程，子进程等）。

 

下面是这一个数据结构

    /*
     * offsets of these are hardcoded elsewhere - touch with care
     */
    volatile long state;    /* -1 unrunnable, 0 runnable, >0 stopped */ //进程当前的状态
    unsigned long flags;    /* per process flags, defined below */    //反应进程状态的信息，但不是运行状态，定义见下
