Below is the source code of a C program to create a Zombie process in Linux and analyse it.
vim create_zombie_process.c #include <stdlib.h>#include <sys/types.h>#include <unistd.h> int main () { pid_t child_pid; child_pid = fork (); if (child_pid > 0) { sleep (60); } else { exit (0); } return 0; } Compile the C source code into an executable program:
gcc create_zombie_process.c Start the program:
./a.out Open a second Terminal and view the process list.
