* Improve automatic interpretation of exception messages.
-* debug_backtrace() in kernel should only dereference valid pointers.
-
* We need better and more example programs.
- Need an mmap example program as a replacement for the crappy mmap FAQ
- Discuss the perils of mixing dirty bits between kernel and user virtual

- - Sample solution.
-
- - Update grading/vm to reflect new mmap, munmap forms.
-
* Filesys project:

- Add option to disable buffer cache.
- - Sample solution.
-
- Need a better way to measure performance improvement of buffer
cache. Some students reported that their system was slower with
cache--likely, Bochs doesn't simulate a disk with a realistic
* Tests:
- - Release some of them.
-
- The threads, userprog, vm test source files could use
factorization and cleanup along the lines of fslib in the filesys
tests.
