Minix

[edit]

The Minix OS version 3 has a status key. This can be demonstrated empirically. Reliable, secondary sources need to be found to support it. Jamplevia (talk) 18:06, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

GNU Hurd

[edit]

The GNU Hurd OS has some semblance of a status key.

[edit]

The JHU/Unix kernel sometimes swaps out all swappable processes and then hangs up- it cannot swap anyone back in. This bug appears primarily when running new REX interrupt processes or changing the current interrupt process. One can verify this bug by typing "(control) t" when the keyboard stops responding. All non-locked processes (data, scribe, and int are normally locked) will be swapped out (identified by a '-' by the process id).
