God, give me memory...
Prayer of the soviet programmer
Main program to the malloc function:
Request for providing allocation of 257 KB of Conventional Memory.
Malloc function to the operational system:
Request for providing allocation of 257 KB of Conventional Memory
because of production necessity.
Operational system to the main program:
Providing of 257 KB of Conventional Memory is not possible because
of it's absence. There's 3 megs of Extended. Do you want it?
Main program to the exception handler:
Lapse of memory allocation. :( What shall we do?
Exception handler to the optimization procedure:
We should obtain spare memory through using system resources more
rationally.
Interruption controller to the interruption handler:
That's, eh... user has pressed a button...
Main program to the interruption handler:
Don't panic! He will release it soon.
Optimization procedure to the exception handler:
Finished!
Main program to the exception handler:
What's now?
Exception handler to the main program:
It's even worse. Maybe, we should initiate a disk swap?
Main program to HDD:
Request for accepting a deposit of 257 KB in a swap-file
HDD to the main program:
Your request can not be fulfilled because free space is not
available.
Main program to the operational system:
What the bug is that? It must be some free space there!
HDD to the main program:
Not a bug. You haven't yet took the last 4 megs swap-file. And, by
the way, I'm not elastic. Not even using a stacker program.
Interruption controller to the interruption handler:
That's, eh... user is pressing a button here... again...
Interruption handler to PC speaker:
Say something, get rid of him!
PC speaker to the user:
Beep!
Main program to the operational system:
Maybe we can redistribute something in memory?
Operational system to the main program:
Other programs need memory too. Do you really want a General
Protection Error?
Main program to the hack function:
Now, find out who ate all the memory and throw those motherhackers
away!
Interruption controller to the interruption handler:
That's, eh... user is pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del!
Main program to the interruption handler:
Lock the keyboard for that wimp! We have some critical tasks
here...
Hack function to the main program:
Ready! A piece of cake!
Main program to the operational system:
What's now? How much memory is free?
Operational system to the main program:
320 Conventional and... oh, but where is Extended Memory Manager?
Main program to the hack function:
What have you done, rascal?
Hack function to the main program:
But what have I done??? You said "throw them away" so I threw them
away!
Malloc function to the operational system:
Request for providing allocation of 257 KB of Conventional Memory
because of production necessity.
Operational system to the main program:
I can't. I had some important data in the high memory. And,
generally speaking, I'll soon hang myself with all of you!
Reset button to CPU:
Guess what? Game over, morons!
... COLD REBOOT...
Autoexec.bat to the main program:
So, where have we finished last time?
