  2. Introduction 1.1 What is an operating system 1.2 History of operating systems 1.3 The operating system zoo 1.4 Computer hardware review 1.5 Operating system concepts 1.6 System calls 1.7 Operating system structure Chapter 1

  3. Introduction • A computer system consists of • hardware • system programs • application programs

  4. System Components • Hardware: • Physical Devices: • Memory, CPU, I/O devices…. • Microarchitecture: Executes machine-level instructions. Hardware or firmware. • Machine language: Hardware and instructions visible to an assembly language program.

  5. Introduction • Operating System: • Hides complexity of hardware and provides simplified set of instructions.

  6. Introduction • System programs: • Generally execute in user mode. • Command interpreter (shell), compilers, editors, …..

  7. So What is an Operating System? • It is an extended machine • Hides the messy details which must be performed • Presents user with a virtual machine, easier to use • Don’t want to program I/O devices, handle interrupts, etc. • It is a resource manager (and scheduler) • Each program gets time with the resource • E.g., CPU, I/O devices, memory • Each program gets space on the resource • E.g., Disk space.

  8. History of Operating Systems • First generation 1945 - 1955 • vacuum tubes, plug boards • Scheduling algorithm was a signup sheet. • Second generation 1955 – 1965 • Operator loading in programs from card deck one at a time. • Led to batch systems

  9. Early batch system • bring cards to 1401 • read cards to tape • put tape on 7094 which does computing • put tape on 1401 which prints output

  10. History of Operating Systems (3) • Structure of a typical FMS job – 2nd generation

  11. Early Operating Systems • Automatic job sequencing – automatically transfers control from one job to another. First rudimentary operating system. • Resident monitor • initial control in monitor • control transfers to job • when job completes control transfers pack to monitor

  12. Memory Layout for a Simple Batch System

  13. Third generation 1965 – 1980 • Machines were very expensive and CPU frequently idle. Led to multiprogramming.

  14. Multiprogramming system • three jobs in memory – 3rd generation

  15. Multiprogramming Batch Systems Solution: Multiplex CPU between multiple jobs.

  16. OS Features Needed for Multiprogramming • Use of disk space to hold jobs not in system. • Job scheduling: Choose jobs to bring into memory. • Memory management – the system must allocate the memory to several jobs. • CPU scheduling – the system must choose among several jobs ready to run. • Allocation of devices.

  17. Time-Sharing Systems–Interactive Computing • The CPU is multiplexed among several jobs that are kept in memory and on disk (the CPU is allocated to a job only if the job is in memory). • A job swapped in and out of memory to the disk. • On-line communication between the user and the system is provided; when the operating system finishes the execution of one command, it seeks the next “control statement” from the user’s keyboard. • i.e., the shell • Goal is to give the illusion that each user has own machines. • Response time is a priority.

  18. Computer Hardware Review Monitor • Components of a simple personal computer Bus

  19. Special registers: • Program counter. • Stack pointer. • Process Status Word (PSW).

  20. Computer Hardware Review (a) A three-stage pipeline (b) A superscalar CPU

  21. CPU has two modes: user and kernel. • Application obtains OS services through a system call. • Traps to operating system and switches to kernel mode.

  22. Typical memory hierarchy • numbers shown are rough approximations

  23. Structure of a disk drive

  24. One base-limit pair and two base-limit pairs

  25. I/O Devices • Manufacturer provides device driver (talks to the device). • OS talks to device driver. • Three ways to handle I/O operations: • Busy waiting. • Interrupt driven • Direct Memory Access (DMA)

  26. (a) Steps in starting an I/O device and getting interrupt (b) How the CPU is interrupted (a) (b)

  27. Structure of a large Pentium system

  28. Operating System Concepts • A process tree • A created two child processes, B and C • B created three child processes, D, E, and F

  29. Operating System Concepts (a) A potential deadlock. (b) an actual deadlock.

  30. Operating System Concepts File system for a university department

  31. Operating System Concepts • Before mounting, • files on floppy are inaccessible • After mounting floppy on b, • files on floppy are part of file hierarchy

  32. Operating System Concepts Two processes connected by a pipe

  33. Steps in Making a System Call There are 11 steps in making the system call read (fd, buffer, nbytes)

  34. Some System Calls For Process Management

  35. Some System Calls For File Management
