You might find it useful to go back and reread how to run the tests
-(@pxref{Testing}). In particular, the tests for project 2 and later
-projects will probably run faster if you use the qemu emulator, e.g.@:
-via @code{make check PINTOSOPTS='--qemu'}. The qemu emulator is
-available only on the Linux machines.

* Project 2 Background::
access memory at an unmapped user virtual address
will cause a page fault.
-You must handle memory fragmentation gracefully, that is, a process that
-needs @var{N} pages of user virtual memory must not require those pages
-to be contiguous in physical memory (or, equivalently, in kernel virtual
-memory).

on. That is, @code{process_execute("grep foo bar")} should run
@command{grep} passing two arguments @code{foo} and @code{bar}.
-Within a command line, multiple spaces are equivalent to a single space,
-so that @code{process_execute("grep foo bar")} is equivalent to our
-original example. You can impose a reasonable limit on the length of
-the command line arguments. For example, you could limit the arguments
-to those that will fit in a single page (4 kB). (There is an unrelated
-limit of 128 bytes on command-line arguments that the @command{pintos}
-utility can pass to the kernel.)

You can parse argument strings any way you like. If you're lost,
look at @func{strtok_r}, prototyped in @file{lib/string.h} and
@var{buffer}. Returns the number of bytes actually read (0 at end of
file), or -1 if the file could not be read (due to a condition other
than end of file). Fd 0 reads from the keyboard using
-@func{kbd_getc}. (Keyboard input will not work if you pass the
-@option{-v} option to @command{pintos}.)

@code{pid_t}. By default, they're both @code{int}. You can make them
a one-to-one mapping, so that the same values in both identify the
same process, or you can use a more complex mapping. It's up to you.
