CSE 5343/7343 Fall 2006 Case Studies Windows History/Processes MS DOS to Windows NT CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 1
Windows Case Study Outline • History – – – MS-DOS Windows 3. xx Windows NT Windows 2000 Windows XP • Design Philosophy • Process Management CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 2
CAUTION: There are so many variations of Windows. Each version is different. Some are drastically different (even if the GUI is similar. ) CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 3
MS-DOS History ([1] pp 633 -639) • 1975 – First real PC, Altair, developed by Micro Instrumentation Telemetry Systems based on Intel 8080 8 -bit microprocessor with 256 bytes of memory. – Bill Gates and Paul Allen of Microsoft develop a version of Basic for Altair. – CP/M was dominant OS. • IBM asked Microsoft to develop a ROM BASIC. IBM chose Intel 8088. Gates suggested IBM use CP/M-86. IBM met with Digital Research and CP/M-86 was running late. Microsoft decided to write its own OS. Microsoft purchased 86 -DOS from Seattle Computer Products. CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 4
MS-DOS History (cont’d) • 1981 – MS-DOS prototype running in February and appeared in IBM PC announcement (MS-DOS 1. 0) in August. • • • 4000 lines of assembly code 12 K memory CP/M compatible Device independent I/O – treated as files in Unix Command processor had a resident and transient part CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 5
MS-DOS History (cont’d) • MS-DOS 2. 0 – March 1983 – – – 20, 000 lines of code IBM PC/XT with 10 M hard disk Hierarchical file system (as in Unix) Device drivers Users wanted multi-tasking, but instead Microsoft added the ability for a print spooler to run concurrently with other tasks in background mode as time permits. When MS-DOS has nothing to do an interrupt is generated to run the print spooler. CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 6
MS-DOS History (cont’d) • MS-DOS 3. 0 – August 1984 – – – – 40, 000 lines of code PBM PC/AT with 20 M hard and 1. 2 floppy Intel 80286 16 M address space 24 bit addresses Ring protection mechanism Cooperative multitasking Virtual memory Real address mode – 1 MB address space acts as fast 8086 – Protected mode – All 16 MB CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 7
Windows History ([3], [4]) • Early Windows – Not true OS just a new GUI layer with “fixes” to address memory constraints. CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 8
Windows History (cont’d) • Problems with DOS/Windows 3. 1 – 16 bits; Can’t access all of memory. – 1 M barrier for memory – Cooperative multitasking – Nonreentrant – Lost system resources – Win 16 applications overwriting memory of another CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 9
Windows Question Who invented windows? Who invented the mouse? ANSWER: XEROX PARC CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 10
Windows 95 Design ([3]) • Design Goals: – Less than 4 MB – Backward compatible (Support Win 16 and DOS) – Increased stability – Fault handler is not part of application. • Three major portions: – User – I/O manager; Windows manager – GDI – GD manager – Kernel – Memory, Files, Task managers CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 11
Windows 95 Design (cont’d) • Registry – Central information including startup and init. • Supports plug and play • Virtual Machine used to run Win 16 applications. • User mode – kernel mode • Long file names CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 12
OS/2 Design ([5]) • Microsoft/IBM designed to replace DOS on Intel machines • Early 1990 s Microsoft released Windows 3. 0 which took over the market • IBM viewed Windows as “stepping stone” to OS/2 • Microsoft wanted to have Windows compete with OS/2 • IBM/Microsoft split CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 13
Windows NT Design([3], [5], [6]) • New Technology DEC (RSX & VMS & ELN) – NT VMS +1 = WNT (HAL + 1 = IBM) All major designs of David Cutler • 1993, versions 3. 1, 3. 51, 4. 0 • Mostly C/C++ • 3. 1 had same GUI as Windows • 32 -bit OS CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 14
Windows NT Design (cont’d) • • • Preemptive multi-tasking Supports multiple processors Used on many architectures Backward compatibility Fully reentrant code Object oriented CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 15
Windows NT Design (cont’d) • NTFS – NT File System – Permissions for file/directory and all objects • Security – Domain – Set of machines with similar uses and authorizations • Registry contains information about OS and application configurations: – – – Hardware Installed software Applications and file types Current user Actively loaded user profiles CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 16
Windows 2000 Design([5], [7]) • • (AKA) Windows NT 5. 0 Distributed File System Multiple monitors Objects – Event , Mutant, Mutex, Semaphore, Thread, Timer – Interrupt, Asynchronous Procedure Call (APC), Process • Subsystems provide backward compatibility – Like virtual machines CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 17
Windows XP Design ([7]) • • 32/64 bit Preemptive multitasking October 2001 released Client-server architecture for multiple processors CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 18
Win 32 Subsystem ([6]) • • • Used in most Windows OSs Window manager Process/Thread Create. File Get. Message CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 19
Windows Process Management CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 20
MS-DOS Processes ([2]) • Single tasking since functions are nonreentrant. • Only real multitasking is background for printing. Can change time slice for this. • EXEC function used by COMMAND. COM – – – Allocate memory Write program segment prefix Load program into memory Transfer control to program Child may in turn use EXEC CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 21
Early Windows Processes([2]) • Cooperative multitasking: – Windows program voluntarily yields control at certain times (Windows 4 and 6. 2) CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 22
Windows NT Processes ([6]) • • • Executable program (code and data) Private virtual address space System resources (semaphores, ports, etc) Process ID Threads CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 23
Windows NT Threads ([6]) • • • Registers Stacks (kernel, user) Private storage (used by subsystems) Thread ID (client ID) Mode transition (switch from user mode to kernel mode) does not require a context switch. • Test: – Windows Task Manager/Performance – Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Performance CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 24
Windows NT Handles ([6]) • Provides ability to access an object at a certain level of priviledge. • Handle Table entry in EPROCESS block • Standardized interface to objects CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 25
Windows NT PCB ([6]) • • Executive (EPROCESS) blocks ETHREAD blocks Process Environment Block (PEB) Thread Environment Block (TEB) CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 26
Windows NT Fibers ([6]) • • • NT 3. 51 Subsets of threads “Lightweight” threads User level threads Scheduled to run by programmers not OS CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 27
Windows NT Process States ([6]) • • • Ready Standby – Next to run Running Waiting Transition – Ready to run but kernel stack paged out • Terminated CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 28
Windows NT Quantums ([6]) • Default: – 6 on Windows NT Workstation – 36 on Windows NT Server – Units are not time values, but relative • At clock interrupt, 3 is deducted from quantum if it is 0 then another thread may run. CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 29
Windows NT Thread Scheduling ([6]) • • • Preemptive priority Multilevel queues – RR within queue Scheduling independent of process Threads have processor affinity If thread is preempted, it is put at the front of the ready queue for that priority. When scheduled it receives the rest of its quantum. CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 30
Windows NT Priorities ([6]) • 32 priority levels – 16 -31 real time – 1 -15 variable levels – 0 system level • Priority classes – Real time, High, Normal, Idle • Threads (Type with Class) – Time critical, Highest, Above normal, Normal, Below normal, Lowest, Idle CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 31
Windows NT Priorities ([6]) • Default base priority level within class • Thread has base and current priority • Priorities raised (1 -15 range never above) – After wait state – Entering wait state – Threads not getting CPU time – Priority goes down after each quantum until base is reached CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 32
IPC([3], [4], [7]) • Windows 95 – Thunking: • Allows 16 bit modules to communicate with 32 bit • Routine that maps addresses CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 33
IPC (cont’d) • Messages – Queue per thread • Semaphores – Win 16 mutex – Used to prevent to Win 16 applications from executing the same code – Ignored by Win 32 applications – Limits multitasking CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 34
IPC (cont’d) • Clipboard – Actually shared memory • OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) – – – Windows 95 Drag & Drop Enhancement to DDE Embed or link data from one application to another. Link – pointer to data Embed – actually move CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 35
IPC (cont’d) • DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange) – Windows 3. 1 – Protocol that allows Windows applications to share data. CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 36
IPC (cont’d) • Deferred Procedure Call (DPC) – Windows NT/2000 – System function will be (ultimately) executed – IRQL (Interrupt Queue Level) • Asynchronous Procedure Call (APC) – Like DPC but for users – Nonblocking • Both are viewed as software interrupts CSE 5343/7343 Windows Case Study 37
