The sentense "Threads share parent process address space."
in pthrad_create(..), we pass address of function wich acts as body of
thread. Now I dont understand how come a thread shares process address
space. It can just share the global variables which comes under the
data segment. so I think a thread can share following of process,
1. Code segment: NO
2. Data Segment: Only the global variables.
Now, as we pass a function as a body of a thread, it must have a code
segment (correct me If I'm wrong), a stack segment, and data segment
(intitalized variables in functions). then how come we say it's sharing
address space of parent process, just because its sharing its global
variables!!
