- 1The kernel allows a process to be preempted while it is running in kernel mode.
- 2The kernel data structure maintains a list of all open files in the system to prevent preemption.
- 3The kernel does not allow a process running in kernel mode to be preempted; a kernel-mode process will run until it exits kernel mode, blocks, or yields control of the CPU.✓
- 4Non-preemptive kernels are completely free from race conditions on data structures for maintaining process lists.
Correct answer
The kernel does not allow a process running in kernel mode to be preempted; a kernel-mode process will run until it exits kernel mode, blocks, or yields control of the CPU.
