Galvin Edition 9 Exercise 9 Question 36 (Page No. 456)

Question

A system provides support for user-level and kernel-level threads. The mapping in this system is one to one (there is a corresponding kernel thread for each user thread). Does a multithreaded process consist of $(a)$ a working set for the entire process or $(b)$ a working set for each thread ? Explain

Answer 1

I think working set should be for the entire process

Comments

No. See my answer.

Answer 2

A working set for each thread.

Why so? All kernel thread has its own execution sequence, thus generating its unique sequence of addresses.
