Minix内存管理概述

参照《操作系统：设计与实现》第二版。

内存管理有两个非常关键和基本的数据结构：进程表、空洞表。

1.内存管理器的进程表叫：mproc。/src/mm/mproc.h中

定义如下：

EXTERN struct mproc {
struct mem_map mp_seg[NR_SEGS];/* points to text, data, stack */
  char mp_exitstatus;  /* storage for status when process exits */
  char mp_sigstatus;  /* storage for signal # for killed procs */
  pid_t mp_pid;   /* process id */
  pid_t mp_procgrp;  /* pid of process group (used for signals) */
  pid_t mp_wpid;  /* pid this process is waiting for */
  int mp_parent;  /* index of parent process */

  /* Real and effective uids and gids. */
  uid_t mp_realuid;  /* process' real uid */
  uid_t mp_effuid;  /* process' effective uid */
  gid_t mp_realgid;  /* process' real gid */
  gid_t mp_effgid;  /* process' effective gid */

  /* File identificat
