Operating Systems PrinciplesMemory ManagementLecture 7: Physical Memory Preparing a Program for Execution
Preparing a Program for Execution Modules reflecting different functions are designed separately, possibly by different programmers.
Compilation will produce an object module and a corresponding external symbol table. Preparing a Program for Execution External Symbol Table Compilation
Preparing a Program for Execution Compilation
Preparing a Program for Execution The linker combines several object modules together to build a load module (EXE) by resolving external references through symbol tables.
Preparing a Program for Execution Logical-to-physical address mapping is done by the loader to transfer the load module from the secondary storage to the main memory.

Programming time • Compilation time • Linking time • Loading time Static Binding • Compile-time Binding • The compiler is given the starting address for the program to be load for execution. • The resulting program can execute only when loaded into the specific preassigned memory space. • Not relocatable • Rarely used
Programming time • Compilation time • Linking time • Loading time Static Binding • Compile-time Binding • Named variables have their addresses hardcoded • Global variables given offset from start of global data area • Local variables given offset from top of stack • Object variables given offset from start of object data • Normal function and method calls are hardcoded • Normal functions have specific starting address in object file • Object methods have specific starting address in object file
Programming time • Compilation time • Linking time • Loading time Static Binding • Link-time Binding • The load module is still notrelocatable • The program will be loaded to memory with starting location specified or assumed by the linker (Linkage Editor). • Linking loader: combining linking and loading • Widely used in smaller, single user systems (e.g., CP/M)

Physical address differs from logical address usually by a constant offset. Dynamic Binding • Dynamic Binding = Binding at Execution Time • That is, binding immediatelybefore each memory reference. • Hardware support needed for logical-to-physical address mapping

Operating Systems PrinciplesMemory ManagementLecture 7: Physical Memory Memory Partitioning Schemes
Memory Partitioning Schemes • Fixed Partitions • The number of partitions and the size of each partition are determined at the time the OS is initialized. • Variable Partitions • Memory not partitioned a priori • Partitioning on demand
OS User OS . . . Fixed Partitions • Single-program systems • 2 partitions (OS/user) • Multi-programmed systems • partitions of different sizes
How to Assign Processes to Partitions? • FIFO for each partition • Typically, best-fit is used for queue assignment. • Problem: Some partitions may be unused if no processes of appropriate sizes are available. • To resolve the problem, more complexqueue management scheme and process scheduling scheme would be required.
How to Assign Processes to Partitions? • Single FIFO • More complex, but more flexible. • E.g., rather than leaving a partition empty, the scheduler may assigned a process to a partition not in best-fit sense. • E.g., the actual memory requirement of a process may grow and shrink dynamically.
Limitations of Fixed Partitions • Program size limited to largest partition • Internal fragmentation • unused space within partitions OS
Variable Partitions • Memory not partitioned a priori • Each request is allocated portion of free space. • Allocating and releasing memory dynamically cause externalfragmentation.
Issues Over time, memory will consist a sequence of variable size blocks. Some are free, and some are not. • How to allocate memories of sizes All free blocks are applicable. Allocate which one? None free block is applicable. But, the total amount of free memory is large enough.

Bitmap Implementation • Memory divided into fix-size blocks • Each block represented by a 0/1 bit in a binary string: the “bitmap” • Can be implemented as char or int array • Operations use bit masks • Release:B[i] = B[i] & '11011111' • Allocate:B[i] = B[i] | '11000000' • Search: Repeatedly, Check left-most bit andShift mask right:TEST = B[i] & '10000000'
