Question:medium
Sequence the following to compute the effective access time needed to service a page fault.
• [A.] Receive an interrupt from the disk I/O subsystem
• [B.] Trap the operating system and save the user registers and process state
• [C.] Determine that the interrupt was a page fault
• [D.] Correct the page table and other tables to show that the desired page is now in memory
• [E.] Restore the user registers, process state and new page table, and then resume the interrupted instruction
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Consider the following pseudocode, where
Sis a semaphore initialized to 5 in line#2 andcounteris a shared variable initialized to 0 in line #1. Assume that the increment operation in line#7 is not atomic.1. int counter = 0; 2. Semaphore S = init(5); 3. void parop(void) 4. { 5. wait(S); 6. wait(S); 7. counter++; 8. signal(S); 9. signal(S); 10. }If five threads execute the function
