Operating System Design: The Xinu Approach, Second EditionBy 作者: Douglas ComerISBN-10 书号: 1498712436ISBN-13 书号: 9781498712439Edition 版本: 2出版日期: 2015-02-18pages 页数: (694)A Comprehensive Resource on Operating System DesignThis highly regarded book, distinguished by its avoidance of the conventional “black box” methodology frequently encountered in other operating system textbooks, initially illuminated readers on the inner workings of an operating system and detailed the process of constructing it from foundational elements. Maintaining a consistent and logical progression for system design, Operating System Design: The Xinu Approach, Second Edition dispels the obscurity surrounding operating system design and integrates a substantial collection of material into a cohesive and systematic field. The book employs a hierarchical design framework that arranges key operating system components in an organized and readily comprehensible structure. It directs readers through the development of a standard process-based operating system, utilizing practical and uncomplicated primitives. The text furnishes comprehensive implementation specifics for one particular set of primitives – typically the most widely adopted set. Following comprehension of how these primitives can be implemented on conventional hardware, readers can then effortlessly devise alternative versions. The book’s narrative commences with a basic machine configuration and systematically guides the reader through the design and subsequent implementation of Xinu, a compact and refined operating system capable of supporting dynamic process creation, dynamic memory allocation, network communication protocols, local and remote file systems management, a shell interface, and device-independent input/output functionalities. The Xinu code is adaptable to run across numerous hardware platforms. This revised edition has undergone a complete overhaul to facilitate a comparative analysis of operating systems tailored for both RISC and CISC processors. Promoting active engagement through hands-on experimentation, the updated text incorporates refreshed code snippets alongside illustrative examples for two cost-effective experimenter boards: BeagleBone Black based on ARM architecture and Galil
