Objective Learn the basic concepts of the UNIX process execution and creation. Learn the basics of the exec/fork system calls and introductory C programming in Linux. Description Write a program using the “execvp” command to execute commands given from the command line. For example: the “./a.out who” would run the “who” command. The program should support programs with arguments. Other examples could be: ./a.out cp bigfile.txt anotherfilename.txt ./a.out ls -1 /usr ./a.out md5sum bigfile You will overwrite your own executable with the new unix command that is the passed to your program. The program should be able to handle any number of command arguments up to 50. Using the getrusage() function which is located in sys/resource.h find out what your child is doing. Print out the time your child spent in user mode and kernel mode. Comment in your report on what you found. Report Individual work only (no collaboration is allowed). Submit via Canvas. Along with the program source code, please also submit a short report (< 1 page) including the details of your implementation, such as on what platform (machine) did you develop and test your programs, what compilers you use, and how you compiled your programs, etc. You may also include any other discussion that you think is relevant. Please do NOT submit compiled binary files. Code from non-class sources does must be cited, and your program must contain original content.
