AOT Operating System Lab Exam 2023

Section 1: If-Else Condition

Q.1 -> All arithmetic operations

read -p "Enter two numbers: " a b
read -p "Enter the operator: " op
# Important Notes
# -eq expects integer to be compared & == is used for char comparision
# You must write fi when you use if otherwise it will not work [if->then->fi]
# always use dollar for getting value
if [ $op == '+' ]; then echo $((a+b))
elif [ $op == '-' ]; then echo $((a-b))
elif [ "$op" == '*' ]; then echo $((a*b)) # The quotation is important otherwise result will be 0
elif [ $op == '/' ]; then echo $((a/b))
elif [ $op == '%' ]; then echo $((a%b))
fi

Output

Enter two numbers: 5 10
Enter the operator: +
15

# Output: One Five Three [but actual answer should be One Five Three Zero]
arr=()
while [ $n -gt 0 ]

Section 7: File permission, Count on file

Q.1 -> Check & Change the file permission using chmod command

# Note: To check the permission of a given file we  use ls -l filename.sh
# The first character is the type of file - means it’s a regular file, a d means it’s a 
# directory. Then next 3 segments are respectively user, group & others permission.

# Note: To give the permission to a file we use chmod ABC filename.sh where ABC is defined 
# as user, group & others permission. [4 -> Only read, 2-> Only write, 1-> Only execute]

ls -l main.sh
# change the user permission to execute also
chmod 744 main.sh
ls -l main.sh
# revoke the execution permission from the user again
chmod 644 main.sh
ls -l main.sh
Output: bash main.sh
-rw-r--r-- 1 runner runner 10231 Nov 15 04:48 main.sh
-rwxr--r-- 1 runner runner 10231 Nov 15 04:48 main.sh
-rw-r--r-- 1 runner runner 10231 Nov 15 04:48 main.sh

Q.2 -> Count the number of line, word & character of a file using wc command

if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then echo "No argument is given"; exit; fi
for i in $*; do
	# To check if it's actually file or not
	if [ -f $i ]; then
		echo "$i is a file"

Section 11: Process Creation


Q.1 -> Child process creation using fork() system call


#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main() {
	pid_t pid; // Process ID
	pid = fork(); // Fork the current process
	// Code executed by the parent process
	if (pid > 0) {
		printf("Parent process (PID: %d)\n", getpid());
		printf("Child process ID: %d\n", pid);
	}
	// Code executed by the child process
	else if (pid == 0) {
		printf("Child process (PID: %d)\n", getpid());
	}
	return 0;
}


Output


Parent process (PID: 2801)
Child process ID: 2802
Child process (PID: 2802)



Section 12: Inter Process Communication


Any one process can send a number/string to the another process using pipe() system call.


#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <string.h>
#define MAX 100
int main() {
	int option;
	printf("Press 1 for (Parent -> Child)\nPress 2 for (Child -> Parent)\nEnter an option: ");
	scanf("%d",&option);
	pid_t pid;
	int fd[2]; // fd means file descriptor
	char s1[MAX] = "Hello Pipe", s2[MAX];
	// Note: Always create pipe before fork() system call
	pipe(fd); // creating a pipe
	pid=fork(); // fork system call
	switch(option){
		case 1: 
			// Case 1: Parent process writes data to pipe and Child process reads from pipe
			if(pid == 0) { // child process
				read(fd[0], s2, MAX);
				close(fd[0]); // Close the read end in the child process
				printf("Child Process received: %s\n", s2);
			}
			else {
				write(fd[1], s1, strlen(s1)+1);
				close(fd[1]); // Close the write end in the parent process
				printf("Data written to pipe by parent process successfully. \n");
			}
			break;
		case 2:
			// Case 2: Child process writes data to pipe and Parent process reads from pipe
			if(pid == 0) { // child process	
				write(fd[1], s1, strlen(s1)+1);
				close(fd[1]); // Close the write end in the child process
				printf("Data written to pipe by child process successfully. \n");
			}
			else {
				read(fd[0], s2, MAX);
				close(fd[0]); // Close the read end in the parent process
				printf("Parent process received: %s\n", s2);
			}
			break;
		default:
			printf("Invalid Option\n");
	}
	return 0;
}


Output for Case 1 (Parent to Child)


Press 1 for (Parent -> Child)
Press 2 for (Child -> Parent)
Enter an option: 1
Data written to pipe by parent process successfully. 
Child Process received: Hello Pipe



Output for Case 2 (Child to Parent)


Press 1 for (Parent -> Child)
Press 2 for (Child -> Parent)
Enter an option: 2
Data written to pipe by child process successfully. 
Parent process received: Hello Pipe
