Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 7 Our Assembler.data.kdata.text.ktext User Kernel

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 8 The Hardware.data.kdata.text.ktext User Kernel OK ERROR!

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 9 How does the User program pass control to the Operating System? Take control on ERROR Pass control explicitly

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 10 ERROR Ex, Arithmetical Overflow li $4 0x neg $4 $4 (sub $4 $0 $4) 0x x x Sign differs Same Sign ! ERROR

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 11 Signed/Unsigned Arithmetics The only difference is that –Unsigned never causes ERROR –Signed causes ERROR on Overflow etc. Signed ADD SUB ADDI.. Unsigned ADDU SUBU ADDIU..

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 12 Memory Error Instruction Memory = Bad PC Data Alignment Error Access Protected Memory from User mode Nonexistent Memory (Page fault Chapter 7)

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 13 Do not confuse ! A Memory that tells the pipeline to Wait –relate to “cache miss” A Memory Error or Page Fault –relate to “TLB miss”

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 14 The Consequence A Memory that tells the pipeline to Wait –Pipeline Stall A Memory Error or Page Fault –Exception

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 15 Pass Control Explicitly The User wants some service from the Operating System –File I/O –Graphics –Sound –Allocate Memory –Terminate Program (no HALT instruction in real MIPS) SYSCALL (causes an exception)

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 16 How to choose service: Is there different SYSCALLs? NO! Only one, use a register ($a0) to choose Use other registers ($a1,...) as parameters Use $v0 for result ori $a1 $r0 ‘A’ ; Char ‘A’ ori $a0 $r0 0x00 ; Write Char syscall ori $a0 $r0 0x01 ; Read Char syscall or $a1 $r0 $v0 ; Move result $v0->$a1 ori $a0 $r0 0x00 ; Echo Char syscall

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 17 Other ways for the Operating System to take control? External Interrupts, (not caused by User program) –Timers –Harddisk –Graphics –Sound –Keyboard, Mouse, other perhipals

Datorteknik OperatingSystem bild 28 Shared “Stack” Assume that the User program uses the stack: Can the Kernel use the same stack ($sp)? Yes, but remember never to use memory below $sp, it will be destroyed (overwritten)!! $sp User Data Kernel Data
