Problem
•Not enough contiguous free memory to allocate request
•Plenty of free memory in total
•This is external fragmentation
![Page 11: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
VM Advantage
•Avoids external fragmentation
•Far more flexible
![Page 12: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Paging
•Way to exploit virtual memory
•Idea: use memory as a cache for the whole disk
•Virtual memory makes this caching transparent to processes
![Page 13: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Paging Details
•In an ideal world, each page has the following bits:
•Valid?
•Dirty?
•Referenced?
•NACHOS is an ideal world
![Page 14: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Valid Bit
•Project #2: does this process have access to the given page?
•Modern OS / Project #3: is this page in memory and/or does this process have access to it?
![Page 15: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Valid Bit Example
![Page 16: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What of Permissions?
•Reference to page with invalid bit set traps to OS anyway
•More accurately, it’s a “Trap to OS on Use” bit
•Still need to check if caller can access page
![Page 17: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Swapping Out
•What if a page is read-only?
•What if a page was never modified since being swapped in?
•In these cases, we end up paging out information that is the same as what is already on disk
•Complete waste!
![Page 19: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Dirty Bit
•If a page is modified, the dirty bit is set (by hardware)
•Only write out if dirty bit is set
•Potentially cuts I/O on paging in half
![Page 20: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Referenced Bit
•If a page is used, set the referenced bit (by hardware)
•Allow software to reset the bit
•Makes certain algorithms easier to implement
![Page 21: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Question: Can kernel pages be
paged out?
![Page 22: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Project #3 Task I
•Implement paging with either FIFO with second chance or LRU
•Step-by-step implementation instructions included
![Page 23: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
n Stages in Demand Paging
1. Trap to the operating system
2. Save the user registers and process state
3. Determine that the interrupt was a page fault
4. Check that the page reference was legal and determine the location of the page on the disk
5. Issue a read from the disk to a free frame:
1. Wait in a queue for this device until the read request is serviced
2. Wait for the device seek and/or latency time
• Begin the transfer of the page to a free frame
6. While waiting, allocate the CPU to some other user
7. Receive an interrupt from the disk I/O subsystem (I/O completed)
8. Save the registers and process state for the other user
9. Determine that the interrupt was from the disk
10.Correct the page table and other tables to show page is now in memory
11.Wait for the CPU to be allocated to this process again
12.Restore the user registers, process state, and new page table, and then resume the interrupted instruction

Virtual Filesystem
•Puts underlying filesystems into a single, consistent view
•Object-oriented design at its best

Advantage
•Easy to extend to multiple filesystems
•LOTS of code sharing possible (caching, file management, ...)
![Page 29: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Storing Files
•Similar problems as with physical memory
•Differences:
•Access times are MUCH slower
•Much better performance if accessing contiguous blocks

Solution
•Indirection in much the same way as virtual memory
•This is what the File Allocation Table (FAT) filesystem is named for
![Page 35: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
FAT
•Separates disks into blocks
•Intuitively, blocks are to disk as pages are to memory
•The number afterward defines the number of bits used for an entry
![Page 36: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Issues
•Fragile with respect to faults
•Worst case: entire FAT must be read for a single file
•seek() is actually O(n), where n is the number of blocks used in a file
![Page 38: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Tradeoff
•Represent some blocks directly, others indirectly
•Make the whole file metadata fit into one block
•UNIX inodes usually do this
![Page 39: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Advantages
•For small files, only direct blocks are needed
•seek() will be O(1)
•Still can represent large files
•seek() will be either O(1) or O(n), depending how far into the file we are seeking
![Page 41: Discussion Week 7](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56812a74550346895d8df9f6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Relevance to NACHOS
•NACHOS has file size limitation of 4 Kb
•Need to extend to 100 Kb
•Will involve adding an indirect level on top of existing direct level
