Subject: How a program could generate the memory addresses for its variables, when it is about to run?
Date: Fri, 27 May 2011 12:14:54 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTim2c1QRM5r7MAf4bQAXX2iRgsRc1w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

hi all,
I am new to the linux kernel internals. I know there is a memory management
subsystem which handles all the memory related things.

But Now i want to know a bit deeper how things work.

I want to start with the following question,
*How a program could generate the memory addresses for its variables, when
it is about to run?*
**
Can please somebody give pointers how to learn this kind of things like,
"in the early stages (when our program is about to be executed..about to
become a process) what are the things that will be done by the kernel?"

Please help me in this regard,

Thanking you,
Sandeep Kumar A.
