Answer:

highly venerable to external attacks

Explanation:

Embedded systems are the type of computer systems that are specially designed having hardware and software components plus programmable  capabilities embedded into the hardware itself.

These computer systems are motorized by dedicated computer hardware chips made by companies such as Broadcom, Qualcomm, and Marvell. These chips are cheap which also means that they’re highly vulnerable, and the profit margins slim. They normally put a version of the Linux operating system onto the chips, lumping it up with some other bunch of open-source and proprietary components and drivers. With little or no technical engineering work before shipping, and there's little enticement to update their "board support package" until there’s probably a very good reason for it.

Using the program below, explain what the output will be at LINE A. 1 #include 2#include 3#include 4 5 int value - 128; 6 7 int
slega [8]

Answer:

This is the complete correct program:

#include <stdio.h>

#include<sys/types.h>

#include<unistd.h>

int value = 128;

int main()

{

  pid_t pid;

  pid=fork();

  if (pid==0) /* child process */

  {

  value +=8;

  return 0; }

  else if (pid > 0) {/* parent process */

 wait (NULL);

 printf ("PARENT: value =%d\n" ,value); /* LINEA */

 return 0;

}

}

The output of the LINE A is:

PARENT: value = 128

Explanation:

The fork() function used in the program creates a new process and this process is the child process. The child process is same as the original process having its own address space or memory.

In the child process the value of pid is 0. So the if condition checks if pid==0. Then the child process adds 8 to the value of its variable according to the following statement  

value +=8;

Now the original process has value = 128. In else if part the parents process has the value of pid greater than zero and this portion of the program is of the parent process :

else if (pid > 0)

{ wait (NULL);

printf ("PARENT: value =%d\n" ,value);

return 0; }

So the value 128 is printed at the end in the output.

wait(NULL) is used to wait for the child process to terminate so the parent process waits untill child process completes.

So the conclusion is that even if the value of the variable pid is changed in the child process but it will not affect the value in the variable of the parent process.
