I'm assuming you actually meant printf() (which is the userspace stdio call)
rather than printk() (which is the inside-the-kernel variant).

'man setbuf' - most likely the output of the child process is buffered and
never actually output before it exits.  You want to set stdout to be
line-buffered or unbuffered, or write to stderr (unbuffered by default) rather
than stdout.
