Where do I find the source code for the exit procedure

I disassembled the following C call 

exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);

and found out that it calls the exit procedure at an assembly level

call    exit

Where can I find the source code for this procedure so that I can study it and find out exactly what is happening?

Solution

  • In the C library of your system. Which then eventually invokes your operating system.

    The links are for linux with glibc, you forgot to mention your environment.
