The assignment page has put-slot in the description for get-slot.
Yes, that's wrong. Here's the correction:
The calling process reads a value from its slot. After the get-slot system
call returns, the caller's register 0 contains the system call status
status::ok command completed successfully
status::no_resource required resource not available
If register 0 contains status::ok when the get-slot call returns, then
register 1 contains the value read from the slot and register 2 contains
the id of the process that put the value. If register 0 contains
status::no_resource, then the slot didn't contain a value, and the contents
of registers 1 and 2 are undefined.
The assignment page has been updated. Apologies for the inconvenience.
