interrupt - Why page fault is considered as trap -
why page fault considered trap instead of interrupt? , stages take place when try access null pointer until segmentation fault? , signal sent in situations sigill, right? thanks!
a trap exception in users-pace caused user-space program. in specific case user-space program accessed page not mapped using memory management unit (mmu) , therefore caused trap. interrupts on other hand generated external hardware events, such timer.
