Topic: Demand paged


  
  Avoidance of deadlocks in a demand paged video adapter - Patent 5592670
As the memory is demand paged, a potential for a deadlock arises.
The page frame 50 is used in conjunction with an offset 52 (which is equal to offset 38 of the linear address 30) to produce the physical address 32.
Further suppose that the source page and destination page are different, and additionally suppose that, initially, the page holding the source address is not present in the page frame 68 (i.e., page frame 0) of physical memory 58.

 DEMAND PAGING - Definition
A kind of virtual memory where a page of memory will be paged in if an attempt is made to access it and it is not already present in main memory.
This normally involves a memory management unit which looks up the virtual address in a page map to see if it is paged in.
If it is not then the operating system will page it in, update the page map and restart the failed access.

A kind of virtual memory where a page of memory will be paged in if an attempt is made to access it and it is not already present in main memory.
Paging in a page may first require some other page to be moved from main memory to disk ("paged out") to make room.
A replacement algorithm or policy is used to select the page to be paged out, often this is the least recently used (LRU) algorithm.

 Storage Organization and Management in TENEX
Paging was therefore the logical alternative, and our study and experience with list processing systems(1,2) led us to believe that using a demand-paged virtual memory system for such computations was a feasible approach.
Page table entries are one word, hence a page table for a 256K virtual memory is 512 words, or exactly one page.
File pages are backed up to the disk by setting a request bit in the CST which causes the swapper to move the page to the disk instead of the drum.

 Access verification arrangement for digital data processing system which has demand-paged memory with page crossing ...
When a program requires data in pages which may not be physically present in the memory, the operating system transfers the entire page from the disk containing the page of data into a page in the memory.
Similarly, locations in page (N+1) of the virtual address space are physically located in page (1) of the physical address space in memory 11, and the addresses in page (N+2) of the virtual address space are in page (5) in the physical address space.
The page table entry also includes a valid bit V and modify bit M, which are not relevant to this invention, and a protection field PROT which identifies the access rights of the various programs to the data in that page.

 CSE 120 -- Nachos Project 3: Virtual Memory (Fall 2002)
Demand paging and page replacement together allow your kernel to "overbook" memory by executing more processes than would fit in machine memory at any one time, using page faults to "juggle" the available physical page frames among the larger number of process virtual pages.
In this part, allocate a physical page for the virtual page and use your code from part 1 to initialize it, mark the PTE as valid, and return from the exception.
Cleaning pages is an expensive operation, and it could even lead to deadlock in extreme cases, if for example a page is needed for buffering during the disk write.

The virtual memory is implemented by paging, and the page size is 4096 bytes.
Assume that the page to be replaced is modified 70 percent of the time.
Assume that 80 percent of the accesses are in the associative memory and that, of the remaining, 10 percent (or 2 percent of the total) cause page faults.

 Lecture 7 - Caching and TLBs; Caching and Demand Paged Virtual Memory
On a miss, the page table(s) are referenced and the appropriate page frame retrieved.
Demand Paging is where you only load pages from disk into memory when an address on that page is needed by the CPU.
The page table can have pointers to either pages that have been loaded into physical memory, or it can have pointers to pages that are still on the disk.

A free page is a page of physical memory not mapped to a virtual address; that is, not currently being used by any process or by the system itself.
Pages are not loaded in memory until are "demanded" by a process -- hence the term, demand paging.
Demand loading eliminates the need to allocate main memory to rarely accessed routines and code, such as error handling routines, which in some instances might account for a large percentage of a program's code.

 Proceedings of the 3rd USENIX Windows NT Symposium, July 12-15, 1999, Seattle, Washington
The binary for desktop applications is demand paged so we examine the utilization of the code pages brought in during startup.
Interestingly, netscape and photoshop touch almost every code page in their main binary during startup suggesting that even with demand paging the entire application is loaded to memory from disk.
Compared to paged, reordered-paged minimizes the number of pages needed by the application, effectively reducing the number of bytes transferred and the number of requests to the server that have to be made.

In each column, circle the page that the reference pointer currently points to after the page reference heading the column is satisfied.
If the required page number is not in the TLB, then after the TLB lookup completes, the required page map table entry is read from Main Memory.
Optimum means the page size that minimizes the amount of memory lost to implement paging.

 CSE 120 -- Nachos Project 3: Virtual Memory (Fall 2001)
First, you will implement demand paging using page faults to dynamically load process virtual pages on demand, rather than initializing page frames for each process in advance at Exec time as you did in Project 2.
You will soon discover that the first page fault is different than subsequent ones on code and data pages because on the first fault you need to read from the executable file, and on the second you need to read from the backing store.
Implement test programs that (1) generate good locality (most references are to a small subset of pages), and (2) generate poor locality (everything is referenced repeatedly in a pattern), and (3) random locality (pages are effectively referenced randomly).

Since physical page 5's first byte is at physical address 0x5000, the corresponding physical address must be 0x5100.
Comment: A page needs to be swapped out of physical memory only if there were no free physical pages available for the page being swapped in.
The fact that a page was swapped out means that physical memory was full at that point in time.

You are to write a program to test the performance of two page replacement algorithms in a demand paged virtual memory management system.
For example, with a frame allocation of 10%, the number of memory frames allocated to the job is 10% of the total number of logical pages in the job.
If a page fault occurs, you must invoke the appropriate page replacement algorithm to choose a page to replace, update the page table, and continue.

If the selected page frame is currently in use and the data on the page has been modified, write the data in the page frame to backing store.
Locate the page for which the fault was generated on the backing store; initiate I/O to load the page into the page frame selected in the previous steps.
When the page is accessed for the first time, the page fault is handled by allocating a new page, which is then cleared (filled with zeros).

 MikeZintel's WebLog : Wednesday, December 08, 2004 - Posts
The operating system loader creates an association between executable code in a native DLL or EXE and the process’s virtual space, and then uses demand paging system to back the virtual address space with physical memory as needed to actually execute the instructions.
In the case of compressed files, the physical memory backing this address space is demand paged and fully shared across all processes.
They are backed with demand paged and shared physical memory as needed.

 ERCB: DDJ Programmer's Bookshelf December 1992
You can dereference a pointer to access a page of memory, even if that page is currently on disk; a page-fault handler within the operating system will take care of loading the page without you being aware of it.
Obviously, the presence of virtual memory is no more relevant to your average programmer than is, say, the presence of an instruction prefetch queue on the processor.
As Stone shows, paged virtual memory depends on the fact that all programs have reasonably sized working sets or "footprints;" that is, that all programs can run for a while with only discrete, page-sized bits of themselves in memory at any given time.

It will either tell you 'mc68020 demand paged' if it is an a.out binary, and give a longer (self-explanatory) description if it is ELF.
If it says something about a "DLL jump", the binary is in a.out format; otherwise, it's in ELF.
