During a child process execution, the parent process invoked the abort() system cll. Which of the following reasons possibly caused this scenario: O a. The parameters returned from child process after completion was invalid. O b. All of them are possible reasons. O c. The parent is exiting and the operating system does not allow a child to continue if its parent terminates. O d. The child process ended and needs to be terminated.

It is recommended that, in the event of a standstill, those processes be terminated, which will result in the following outcomes:
11. A process said to be in ___________ state if it was waiting for an event that will never occur. a. Safe b. Unsafe c. Starvation d. Dead lock
5. A state is safe if the system can allocate resources to each process (up to its maximum) in some order and still avoid deadlock. Then a. deadlocked state is unsafe b. unsafe state may lead to a deadlock situation c. deadlocked state is a subset of unsafe state d. all of these
A deadlock occurs when a group of processes is stalled because one process is holding a resource and waiting for another process to obtain it. Consider the situation when two trains are approaching each other on the same track and there is only one track: once they are in front of each other, neither train can proceed. In operating systems, a similar scenario happens when two or more processes possess certain resources while waiting on resources owned by other processes (s). In the picture below, Process 1 is holding Resource 1 and waiting for Process 2 to acquire Resource 2, while Process 2 is waiting for Resource 1. Give an example of a realistic deadlock avoidance approach and describe the basic strategy behind it.
If a process exits and there are still threads of that process running, will they continue to run? Support your answers.
When a process fork a child process then it enters ___________state. a. waiting b. terminated c. ready d. new
83. A state is safe, if : a. the system does not crash due to deadlock occurrence b. the system can allocate resources to each process in some order and still avoid a deadlock c. the state keeps the system protected and safe d. all of the mentioned
What is the most common reason caused a running process state transition to the ready state? Select one: a.The running process has reached the time-out b.The running process pre-empted by a new process c.A process voluntarily release control of the processer
2) ______ is a situataion where one process is withheld due to other process. a) multi operating b) dead lock c) multi-programming
If a process exits and there are still threads of that process running, will they continue to run?
Including the parent process, how many processes will execution of the following program result in? Assume that all fork() system calls succeed. #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); /* ... */ }
A system call is precisely what? a) What kind of call is a system call? -> What kind of call is a system call? What is the operating system's capacity in this regard?
