I've made some clarifications and corrections in the documentation for
assignment 1:
In the Interrupt Handler section of the Assignment 1 page - You need to
implement three interrupt handlers, not two. I left out the countdown
interrupt handler.
In the Batch Disk section of the Assignment 1 page - Several people were
having trouble understanding how a batch disk was defined, so I rewrote that
section a bit and drew an picture of an example batch disk.
In the System Calls section of the Hardware Architecture page - If the sleep
system call passes a non-positive sleep time, the system call should do
nothing. You don't have to pass back an error code.
The modified documentation is available off the class web page.
