When a process is accessing shared modifiable data or a resource that can only operate on behalf of one process at a time , the process is said to be in a critical section.
When one process is in a critical section , all other processes (at least those that access the shared modifiable data and/or resource) are excluded from their critical section.
Critical Section
![Page 4: Operating system critical section](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/55c676adbb61ebc8178b459e/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
n processes all competing to use some shared data Each process has a code segment, called critical section, in which
the shared data is accessed. Problem – ensure that when one process is executing in its critical
section, no other process is allowed to execute in its critical section.
The Critical-Section Problem
![Page 5: Operating system critical section](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/55c676adbb61ebc8178b459e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Transfer Rs. 100 from saving account to checking account
P1 P2Saving = saving – 100 saving = saving * 1.01Checking = checking +100 checking = checking * 101
Initially : saving = 100 checking = 0
P1 ran first & P2 ran first & P1’s first line then P2P2 ran second p1 ran second & P1’s second line
Saving = 0 saving = 1 saving = 0Checking = 101 checking = 100 checking = 100
Example of critical section

1. Mutual Exclusion. If process Pi is executing in its critical section, then no other processes can be executing in their critical sections.
2. Progress. If no process is executing in its critical section and there exist some processes that wish to enter their critical section, then the selection of the processes that will enter the critical section next cannot be postponed indefinitely.
3. Bounded Waiting. A bound must exist on the number of times that other processes are allowed to enter their critical sections after a process has made a request to enter its critical section and before that request is granted.
Assume that each process executes at a nonzero speed No assumption concerning relative speed of the n processes.

Initial Attempts to Solve Problem
Only 2 processes, P0 and P1
General structure of process Pi (other process Pj)
do {
entry section
critical section
exit section
reminder section} while (1);
Processes may share some common variables to synchronize their actions.

Algorithm 1 Shared variables:
int turn;initially turn = 0
turn = i Pi can enter its critical section
Process Pi
do {while (turn != i) ;critical sectionturn = j;reminder section} while (1);
Satisfies mutual exclusion, but not progress

Algorithm 2 Shared variables
boolean flag[2];initially flag [0] = flag [1] = false.
flag [i] = true Pi ready to enter its critical section
Process Pi
do {
flag[i] := true;while (flag[j]) ; critical section
flag [i] = false;

Satisfies mutual exclusion, but not progress requirement.

Algorithm 3 Combined shared variables of algorithms 1 and

do {flag [i]:= true;turn = j;while (flag [j] and turn = j) ;critical sectionflag [i] = false;remainder section} while (1);
Meets all three requirements; solves the critical-section problem for two processes.

Critical Regions
High-level synchronization construct A shared variable v of type T, is declared
as:v: shared T
Variable v accessed only inside statementregion v when B do S
where B is a boolean expression.
While statement S is being executed, no other process can access variable v.
![Page 20: Operating system critical section](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061613/55c676adbb61ebc8178b459e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Critical Regions
Regions referring to the same shared variable exclude each other in time.
When a process tries to execute the region statement, the Boolean expression B is evaluated. If B is true, statement S is executed. If it is false, the process is delayed until B becomes true and no other process is in the region associated with v.
