Virtual Addressing using Segmentation

What is the largest VA for this process that will not cause any faults and be in the heap segment?

Recall the initial rules for MLFQ are: If Priority(A) > Priority(B) then A runs If Priority(A) == Priority(B) then A&B run in RR Jobs start at top priority If a job uses its whole time slice then it is demoted These initial rules had several problems and needed to be changed.  What is one problem with these initial rules and the modification that was made to correct for this problem?

For a segment that grows negatively, if a VA’s offset is out-of-bounds then a page fault will occur.

A system uses linear page tables and has the following parameters: Address Space size: 32KB Physical Memory size: 64KB Page size: 4KB   A process that is currently running on the system has the following page table base register and page table as shown below.  Note, only 5 bits of every PTE are shown.  The full size of a PTE is 1 byte. PTBR: 0x2004 The process’s instructions and virtual addresses are: 0x0000 movl 0x1100, %edi  (load x)0x0008 addl $0x1, %edi    (add 1)0x000C movl %edi, 0x1100  (store x)

What is the largest VA for this process that will not cause any faults?
