Program

structure

  • text - the OS will write-protect this section, and since it's immutable, it can also share it between multiple processes or threads running the same executable

  • data - the OS will map this r/w and won't directly (yeah yeah, copy-on-write) share it

  • bss - this section consists of zero-initialized data.

  • stack - typically separated from the program, it generally grows downward from higher addresses

Parallelism
