Hi there,
doing a major essay comparing operation systems I need some
detailed information about plan9, if available.
Unfortunatetly the papers published in www didn't answer
my questions and I cannot afford to buy the programmer's
manual, so I hope someone in here can help me.
- What are the kernels policies for memory management ?
(segmentation , paging, under which conditions are
pages swapped out , ect)
.. for cpu scheduling ? (priority queues ? RR ? whatever)
Are there differences btw cpu-server, fileserver, terminal
kernels concerning the things above ?
- How are processes implemented ? (What kind of data-structures are
used ? process tables, signal handling, registers, system calls,
stack, etc ) What about the threads (I think there's some information
about that in the papers...)
..so far.
Maybe some more question will arise.
Thanks in advance,
Daniel Lang
