GATE CSE 2024 Set 2

MCQ (More than One Correct Answer)

-0.33

Consider a process P running on a CPU. Which one or more of the following events will always trigger a context switch by the OS that results in process P moving to a non-running state (e.g., ready, blocked)?

P makes a blocking system call to read a block of data from the disk

P tries to access a page that is in the swap space, triggering a page fault

An interrupt is raised by the disk to deliver data requested by some other process

A timer interrupt is raised by the hardware
