"The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating Systems" by Marshall Kirk McKusick and George V. Neville-Neil
Addison Wesley Professional, 2005, ISBN 0-201-70245-2.
Reading this book itself may be a major challenge.But, you really learn when you go through this process!
09/29/2006 ecs150 Fall 2006 18
PrerequisitesPrerequisites
Programming Languages: C and assembly (ecs50)
Date Structure (ecs110) and basic Computer Architecture (ecs154a/eec70).

OS Principles/ConceptsOS Principles/Concepts
What is “kernel”?What is the difference between a process and a thread?What is the difference between user-level and kernel-level threads?What is the difference between a system call and a library function call?What are SJF, RR, Lottery, LRU, TLB, Second Chance?How to do Mutual Exclusion?What is the difference between deadlock prevention and avoidance?What are the differences among hardware interrupt, hardware trap, and software trap?
09/29/2006 ecs150 Fall 2006 21
OSOS
Let’s examine OS concepts in a realistic context: “FreeBSD”
Then, we can re-think those concepts….– And, maybe you will realize later that some of
the concepts are either “misleading” or “irrelevant” in certain context.
09/29/2006 ecs150 Fall 2006 22
Principles vs. PracticePrinciples vs. Practice
Ideas and Theories first, then we will go over some FreeBSD code segments.
You will need to learn FreeBSD internals for programming assignments!!
The first few discussion sessions will be dedicated to FreeBSD internals.– Most of the discussion sessions are very important and
they will appear in the exams and homeworks.
09/29/2006 ecs150 Fall 2006 23

Process and ThreadProcess and Thread(abstraction and abstraction)
An execution instance of a program. Threads and resources
– a thread is a control entity of the logical flow in the program.
– A sequential program needs only one single thread because it only need to be controlled by one entity.
– Can you distinguish a process and a thread?
User mode versus (trap into the) Kernel mode.

one flow of control) and the resources (user or kernel).

09/29/2006 ecs150 Fall 2006 84
ThreadsThreads
User-level– Kernel is unaware of multiple threading within
the same process. (Conceptually, the kernel pretends one “kernel” thread per process.)
Kernel-level– Kernel is fully aware of multiple kernel threads
within the same process, and therefore, it will provide “related kernel services”.

Linux refers to them as tasks rather than threads.
Thread creation is done through clone() system call.
clone() allows a child task to share the address space of the parent task (process)

mapping but NOT coordinating
09/29/2006 ecs150 Fall 2006 106
Questions to askQuestions to ask Why do we need “coordination”?
– kernel-support user-level threads What do we need in this “K/U
coordination”?– extended system call API
Is this only good for SMP?– How about single processor?– How about NPU? (e.g., IXP-2400)

I can guess but I am not sure that is exactly what you want!

Scheduler ActivationsScheduler Activations First proposed by [Anderson et al. 91] Idea: cooperation between schedulers should take place in
both directions User scheduler uses system calls Kernel scheduler should use upcalls!
Upcalls– Notify the user-level of kernel scheduling events
Activations– A new structure to support upcalls (~kernel thread)– As many running activations as processors– Kernel controls activation creation and destruction

Kernel Scheduling Entity (KSE)– a virtual CPU– When “anything” changes regarding the service
of this KSE to the process, this KSE is “unassigned” as the kernel doesn’t know what other threads might be there!!
– Upcall to the UTS (via KSE mailbox).– UTS uses both KSE mailbox and Thread
mailbox to handle/decide.

What is the real difference between these two models??
First Brainstorming!!

Micro versus MonolithicMicro versus Monolithic
Is this really relevant? Advantages of Micro Kernels
– Modules (Architectural Cleanness), Adaptive, Small/Quick-to-Boot,…
We did learn some lessons– We have to consider the “users” &
“applications”, and make a new engineering design decision.

Interface Design– how to let user programs access the resources easier?
