In-class: xv6 CPU alarm

We encourage you to collaborate with others on these in-class exercises.

In this exercise you'll add a feature to xv6 that periodically alerts a process as it uses CPU time. This might be useful for compute-bound processes that want to limit how much CPU time they chew up, or for processes that want to compute but also want to take some periodic action. More generally, you'll be implementing a primitive form of user-level interrupt/fault handlers; you could use something similar to handle page faults in the application, for example.

You should add a new alarm(interval, handler) system call. If an application calls alarm(n, fn), then after every n "ticks" of CPU time that the program consumes, the kernel will cause application function fnto be called. When fn returns, the application will resume where it left off. A tick is a fairly arbitrary unit of time in xv6, determined by how often a hardware timer generates interrupts.

You should put the following example program in alarmtest.c:

#include "types.h"
#include "stat.h"
#include &#
