I want to open a VIM instance with one user account (using su), then login as another user and access the same session with that user.



Example User1:
su - user2 -c vim somefile.txt



Then I want to login as User2 and then access that VIM process created by that first user. I know it's possible but I'm not sure how to do it.




linux vim

  • So, you want to open an interactive process (VIM) with one user, and then access with another user? Question: why does the first user have to use su, but not the second one?

    tmux or screen are your best bets. alternately, disown or reptyr or other tricks might be used. see serverfault.com/questions/24425/… or unix.stackexchange.com/questions/4034/… or a myriad of similar questions. the only difference here is running the initial process as a different user; personally i'd use su with tmux.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
