C program storage space layout review + memo

BSS segment:BSS segments are generally a memory area used to store uninitialized global variables in the program. BSS is short for block started by symbol. BSS segments belong to static memory allocation.

Data Segment:A data segment is a memory area used to store initialized global variables in a program. The data segment belongs to the static memory allocation.

Code segment:A code segment or text segment is a memory area used to store code execution. The size of this area is determined before the program runs, and the memory area is usually read-only. Some architectures also allow code segments to be writable, that is, programs can be modified. In the code segment, it may also contain some read-only constant variables, such as string constants.

Heap ):Heap is used to store the memory segments dynamically allocated during the process running. Its size is not fixed and can be dynamically expanded or reduced. When a process calls a function such as malloc to allocate memory, the newly allocated memory is dynamically added to the heap (the heap is expanded). When a function such as free is used to release the memory, released memory is removed from the heap (the heap is reduced)

Stack)Stack, also known as a stack, is a local variable temporarily created by the user to store the program. That is to say, the variable defined in the ARC "{}" of our function (but does not include static declared variables, static means to store variables in data segments ). In addition, when a function is called, its parameters will also be pushed into the process stack that initiates the call. After the call is completed, the return values of the function will also be stored in the stack. Because of the stack's first-in-first-out feature, the stack is particularly convenient for storing/restoring the call site. In this sense, we can regard the stack as a memory zone for storing and exchanging temporary data.
