page fault

In particular, page faults are not allowed at this or higher levels.

A program addressing the memory has no knowledge of a page fault or a process following it.

You can always "page fault" to get the information if the original report forgot it.

Generally, making more physical memory available also reduces page faults.

If the memory access time is 0.2 us, then the page fault would make the operation about 40,000 times slower.

In some cases a "page fault" may indicate a software bug.

Such strategies attempt to reduce the number of page faults a process experiences.

The operating system must then take control and handle the page fault, in a manner invisible to the program.

This situation is known as a page fault.

The emulated bits in the software-maintained table are set by page faults.

The exception handling software that handles the page fault is generally part of the operating system.

Return control to the program, transparently retrying the instruction that caused the page fault.

The hardware that detects a page fault is the memory management unit in a processor.

When a page fault occurs and all frames are in use, one must be cleared to make room for the new page.

In a processor where such instructions are not idempotent, dealing with page faults is much more complex.

A page fault occurs when a page is not found, and might need to be loaded from disk into memory.

Major page faults on conventional (hard disk) computers can have a significant impact on performance.

Eyes work using a page fault mechanism.

If no entry exists, a page fault occurs.

In a load-store architecture, instructions that might possibly cause a page fault are idempotent.

If a program tries to access a location in such a page, an exception called a page fault is generated.

Illegal operations and invalid page faults are mentioned.

Page faults, by their very nature, degrade the performance of a program or operating system and in the degenerate case can cause thrashing.

Many have been proposed, such as implementing heuristic algorithms to reduce the incidence of page faults.

One direction may vastly increase cache misses and page faults, both of which greatly delay access to memory.
