Question: Consider the following code snippet: int main ( ) { int ret; int pipe _ fd [ 2 ] ; ssize _ t rlen, wlen;
Consider the following code snippet:
int main int ret; int pipefd; ssizet rlen, wlen; char str "Hello from the other side!"; char buf char malloc sizeofchar; if pipepipefd perrorError: failed to open a pipe."; pidt pid fork; switch pid case : perrorError: failed to fork; case :
rlen readpipefd buf, ; printf Child fd: d read s len: ld
pipefd buf, rlen; closepipefd; break; default: wlen writepipefd str strlenstr; printfParent fd: d write s len: ld
pipefd str wlen; closepipefd; break; return ;
Which of the following statements isare true choose all that apply
Group of answer choices
This code will raise an error as pipefd is the write file descriptor and pipefd is read file descriptor. The code uses incorrect file descriptors for readingwriting
This code runs without any error.
The child process will wait on read until data is available from the pipe.
This code will raise an error as the parent process closes the write file descriptor as soon as it writes Hello from the other side! to the pipe.
Even if the parent process closes the write file descriptor child process will have access to the read file descriptor as long as there is data in the pipe that hasn't been read.
