P3 (16 points) System call
(a) [4pts] Assume that we have the following piece of code:
1.int main() {
2. printf(“Starting main “);
3. int file_fd = open(“test.txt”, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0666);
4. dup2(file_fd, STDOUT_FILENO);

void orange() {
val = 1;

(a) Demand paging. Given the page table of Process X as follows.
Page size is 4KB, the memory access latency is 100ns, the TLB access latency is 10ns, the page fault processing cost is 108 ns (it includes the cost to update TLB and page table). The number of page frames is 2. The page replacement policy is LRU (least recently used algorithm). Assuming that
1) TLB is empty at the beginning
2) For address translation, MMU visits TLB first, if TLB miss then visits page table.
3) Valid = 0 indicates page is not in memory, incurs page faults. After handled page faults, the process will re-execute this instruction.
Given the virtual memory access sequence 2362H, 1565H, 25A5H.
(1) [6 pts] What is the access latency for each above memory?
(2) [2 pts] What is the corresponding physical address of virtual memory address 1565H, and why?

Page table entry size of 4 Bytes

20 bit page 12 bit offset
What is the page size? What is the maximum page table size?
2) [4 pts] Suppose it uses 2-level page table, the format of the translation scheme is
10 bit page 10 bit page 12 bit offset
Please write down the 1-st level page number and its offset in decimal (base 10) of virtual address C302C302 (base 16).

(a) [2 pts] The FAT file system eliminates external fragmentation by allocating disk space in block-sized units. Considering that fact, briefly explain why defragmentation is still sometimes necessary.
(b) [2 pts] In the UNIX 4.2 BSD FFS, inodes have direct pointers, a singly indirect pointer, a doubly indirect pointer, and a triply indirect pointer. The maximum file size supported by this inode type is approximately the same as the maximum file size supported by an inode with only a triply indirect pointer. Briefly explain one disadvantage of an inode design that only uses a triply indirect pointer instead of a combination of pointers (other than the slightly reduced maximum file size).
(c) [10 pts] File F has 200 blocks (start from block 1). User A wants to insert one block to File F as its block 30. Please answer the following questions and briefly explain your answer.
(1) [3pts] Suppose the file system employs Contiguous allocation. As shown in following figure, the gray blocks are free. How many disk block accesses you need to insert it at least, what should be updated in root directory?
(2) [3pts + 4 pts] Suppose the file system employ linked allocation, each block has a link pointer and data (as shown in following figures). How many disk block accesses you need to insert it? If the size of each block is 1KB and the pointer size is 4 bytes. What is the maximum file size in this file system?
(d) [2 pts] Please describe the file deletion procedure in FAT file system.
