Notes

This project can be done with a single partner. Copying code (from other groups) is considered cheating. Read this for more info on what is OK and what is not!

Handing It In

The handin directory is ~cs537-4/handin/login/p3 where login is your login.

For the C/Linux part of this project, you should turn in whatever is needed to build libmem.so , including a makefile.

For the xv6 part of the project, copy all of your source files (but not .o files, please, or binaries!) into the xv6/ subdirectory of your p3 directory. A simple way to do this is to copy everything into the destination directory directory, then type make to make sure it builds, and then type make clean to remove unneeded files.

Finally, into your p3 directory, please make a README file. In there, describe what you did a little bit. The most important bit, at the top, however, should be the authorship of the project, particularly if you had a partner. Include both partner's names and CS logins to receive credit; please put the README in BOTH partners' directories; put the code in just one.
