Yes, there's a PID 0! An explanation of what it is, and a quick walk through linux early boot code.

Mr. Anderson, Thank you for your analysis/work and well written treatise, on PID 0. I enjoyed learning more about Linux & Unix and a bit of history thereof as well.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
