Question

Transcribed Image Text:Consider the following code snippet:
waitpid(-1, &status, 0);
Which of the following correctly describes the purpose of this code snippet?
it is equivalent to wait(&status);
it causes the parent process to wait for the child process that terminates first
and fetch that child's termination status
it causes the parent process to wait for the child process whose pid is -1 and
fetch that child's termination status
The first two choices are both correct
None of the above choices are correct
Which of the following statements about wait(2) and waitpid(2) are true?
The waitpid(2) function can block the caller until a child process terminates,
whereas wait(2) has an option that prevents it from blocking.
The wait(2) function doesn't wait for the child that terminates first; it has a
number of options that control which process it waits for.
If a child has already terminated and is a zombie, wait(2) returns immediately
with that child's status. Otherwise, it blocks the caller until a child terminates.
All of the above.
None of the above.

The operations P (Test) and V (Signal) can be interrupted. The operations P (Test) and V (Signal) run in the operating system's user mode. The values of binary semaphores are restricted to 0 and 1. Counting semaphores are used to manage limited resources and the corresponding access to them. Semaphores can be used to synchronize certain operations between processes. When accessing the list of a semaphore, the FIFO principle should be preferred to the LIFO principle.arrow_forward
- Q)Suppose you are a programmer in Agha Khan Hospital. Agha Khan Hospital Chairman has assigned a task you to develop an application in regards to handle the data related to COVID-19 Vaccination Registration. Each patient is provided with a security code needed for verification at the time of vaccination. Range of security codei is1 to 10. Task is to create a class COVID with 6 private data members name, cnic, security code, age, address and blood pressure of patient. Class include public member functions 1. input ( ) function to input the attributes of patient 2. verify ( ) function to check security code provided at the time of registration 3. display ( ) function to display the patient cnic if security code is verified 4. show ( ) function to display the message NOT REGISTERED if security code doesn’t match Define verify function outside the class using scope resolution operator.

This will be simulated by a pushbuttonThe exit has a momentary limit switch that changes states as a car exits thegarage. This switch will be simulated by another pushbutton.The current number of cars in the garage will be indicated on the HMI’snumerical indicator.Also, indicate the number of cars that can still be accommodated. (ex.: if there are3 cars in the garage, indicate that the garage can still accommodate 7 more.)When the system has determined the garage is full a gate will lower, preventingmore cars from entering. A red pilot light will be used to indicate the gate islowered.Provide a message on the HMI stating that the “GARAGE IS FULL”.If the garage is empty indicate that the “GARAGE IS EMPTY” on the HMI andthe counter should be stuck at 0. To reset the system switch is toggled.arrow_forwardin c++ Write a function named createOneStudent that will read in from the user the student info: id, name and gpa. It will use try-catch to handle the exception if the user provides a negative id or gpa that is out of bound (< 0.0 or > 4.0) by asking the user to re-enter them. It must provide the correct reason for the error and the actual error value. Then it will allow the user to try up to 3 times. This function will return the pointer of a newly created Student object or nullptr if the info is still incorrect. Note that this function can and will use cin and cout to read in values from the user. Here is an example of a run up to 3 times: Enter ID: -1 Enter GPA: 4.0 Enter name: John Smith Exception: negative id: -1 Enter ID: 1234 Enter GPA: 5.0 Enter name: John Smith Exception: out of bound gpa: 5.00 Enter ID: 1234 Enter GPA: 4.0 Enter name: John Smith ID(1234) NAME(John Smith) GPA(4.00) Here is an example of a run of 3 times and still not able to create it: Enter ID: 1234…arrow_forward
