Chapter Objectives
To develop a description of deadlocks, which prevent sets of
concurrent processes from completing their tasks
Operating System Concepts with Java – 8th Edition 7.3 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne ©2009
The Deadlock Problem
A set of blocked processes each holding a resource and waiting to
acquire a resource held by another process in the set
Example
System has 2 disk drives
P1 and P2 each hold one disk drive and each needs another one
P0 P1
wait (A); wait(B)wait (B); wait(A)

Methods for Handling Deadlocks
Ignore the problem and pretend that deadlocks never occur in the
system; used by most operating systems, including UNIX

Deadlock Prevention
Operating System Concepts with Java – 8th Edition 7.19 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne ©2009
Deadlock Prevention (Cont.)
No Preemption –
If a process that is holding some resources requests another
resource that cannot be immediately allocated to it, then all
resources currently being held are released
Preempted resources are added to the list of resources for which
the process is waiting
Process will be restarted only when it can regain its old resources,
as well as the new ones that it is requesting

Deadlock Avoidance
Operating System Concepts with Java – 8th Edition 7.21 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne ©2009
Safe State
System is in safe state if there exists a sequence <P1, P2, …, Pn> of ALL
the processes is the systems such that for each Pi, the resources that
Pi can still request can be satisfied by currently available resources +
resources held by all the Pj, with j < I
That is:
If Pi resource needs are not immediately available, then Pi can wait
until all Pj have finished.
When Pj is finished, Pi can obtain needed resources, execute, return
allocated resources, and terminate.
When Pi terminates, Pi +1 can obtain its needed resources, and so on.

Resource-Request Algorithm for Process Pi
Request = request vector for process Pi. If Requesti [j] = k then
process Pi wants k instances of resource type Rj
3 resource types:
A (10 instances), B (5instances), and C (7 instances)

The system is in a safe state since the sequence < P1, P3, P4, P2, P0>
satisfies safety criteria

Example: P1 Request (1,0,2)
Executing safety algorithm shows that sequence < P1, P3, P4, P0, P2>
satisfies safety requirement

Detection Algorithm
1. Let Work and Finish be vectors of length m and n, respectively
Initialize:
(a) Work = Available
(b) For i = 1,2, …, n, if Allocationi 0, then
Finish[i] = false;otherwise, Finish[i] = true

State of system?
Can reclaim resources held by process P0, but insufficient resources to
fulfill other processes; requests
Deadlock exists, consisting of processes P1, P2, P3, and P4

Detection-Algorithm Usage
When, and how often, to invoke depends on:
How often a deadlock is likely to occur?
How many processes will need to be rolled back?
one for each disjoint cycle

Recovery from Deadlock:
Process Termination
Abort all deadlocked processes
