order, to catch more bugs.
Idea and code by Godmar Back.
We are seeing the following wrong implementations pass all tests:
-- Implementations that assume locks are released in the opposite order
-in which they're acquired. The students implement this by
-popping/pushing on the donation list.
-
- Implementations that assume that the priority of a thread waiting on
a semaphore or condition variable cannot change between when the
thread was blocked and when it is unblocked. The students implement
Neither of these two cases is detected; do you currently check for
these mistakes manually?
-I wrote a test that checks for the first case; it is here:
-http://people.cs.vt.edu/~gback/pintos/priority-donate-multiple-2.patch
-
-[...]
-
I also wrote a test case for the second scenario:
http://people.cs.vt.edu/~gback/pintos/priority-donate-sema.c
http://people.cs.vt.edu/~gback/pintos/priority-donate-sema.ck
-I put the other tests up here:
-http://people.cs.vt.edu/~gback/pintos/priority-donate-multiple2.c
-http://people.cs.vt.edu/~gback/pintos/priority-donate-multiple2.ck

+/* The main thread acquires locks A and B, then it creates three
+ higher-priority threads. The first two of these threads block
+ acquiring one of the locks and thus donate their priority to
+ the main thread. The main thread releases the locks in turn
+ and relinquishes its donated priorities, allowing the third thread
+ to run.
+
+ In this test, the main thread releases the locks in a different
+ order compared to priority-donate-multiple.c.
