| Message-ID | <memo.20260831173550.33016I@jgd.cix.co.uk> |
I've been reading about various early architectures, and realised that System/360 seems to have been innovative in a way that isn't talked about very much. The earliest style seems to have been one-word instructions, each containing an opcode, modifier bits and an address. That was fine while memories were small, but became increasingly limiting as they grew. 18-bit addressing was common on 36-bit systems. Even the 64-bit Stretch was limited to 18 address bits. The 360 introduced word-sized address registers, which meant that address space became a key feature of a computer. It had, theoretically, 32-bit addresses, although only 24 bits were implemented at first. Address registers could be loaded, using instructions longer than one word, but were usually used for base addresses, and not changed very often. Was this original with the 360, or did someone else invent it first? Were there other styles, now abandoned? John

Were >there other styles, now abandoned? The Burroughs B5000 (1961) had 4-syllable fixed length instructions (48 bits), and a 48 bit word size. The B6500 adding paging to the segmentation scheme. Addressing was via descriptors stored on the stack (Addressing was enhanced in the B6500 and again in A-series). Developed also in the early 1960s, the B3500 used a 6 (8 in a subsequent generation) digit address in the instruction stream, that could optionally be indexed. The addressing scheme was enhanced around 1983 to support large physical and program memory space (B3500 supported 500MB, B4900 supported 20MB, the V560 640MB). In some sense, it was a successor to the B300, although architecturally quite different; both were BCD machines.

According to John Dallman <jgd@cix.co.uk>: >The 360 introduced word-sized address registers, which meant that address >space became a key feature of a computer.

Were >there other styles, now abandoned? As far as I know the 360 was the first to use base+displacement with full sized base registers and short displacements so you had to use a base register for every address. There were plenty of previous systems with index registers but they all had full addresses in the instructions too. A famous paper in the IBM Systems Journal on the architecture of S/360 had a lot to say about that choice, and the need to have compact addresses in instructions since small systems only had 8K or 16K of memory. That made addresses in instructions only 16 bits without segmenting or otherwise screwing up the flat address space. When I read the paper I got the impression that they thought that they didn't need dynamic relocation since you could just change the base registers on the fly which was a wee bit overoptimistic. https://www.ece.ucdavis.edu/~vojin/CLASSES/EEC272/S2005/Papers/IBM360-Amdahl_april64.pdf -- Regards, John Levine, johnl@taugh.com, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly

Your impression is correct. But they weren't _that_ overoptimistic. They indeed could have avoided the need for dynamic relocation by requiring programmers to identify the base registers they would be using to the operating system. Then, if a program is moved after an interrupt, the operating system would know which registers to change when returning to the user program. Of course, there are some little details to take care of in order to make this work, but dealing with them is not impossible. One possibility is to load the base registers within the same call to the operating system that makes the notification, so as to avoid the issue of the interrupt occurring between the notification call and the actual loading of the register. The base register that gets loaded with the pointer to the routine doesn't need to be relocated; one would also need a convention that every program, as its very first instruction, loads register 15 with a pointer to the start of the program, since at least one base register is needed to load that other base register with the value of the external symbol.

The really hard part is what to do about all of the pointers that are stored in memory. I suppose you could have careful programming conventions that subtracted off the base before storing them and adding it back after loading them, but urrgh, the race conditions. The only thing I ever heard of that kind of did that was APL\360 which ran many timesharing users, each with a workspace of APL data. The systems could move the workspaces around and updated the base registers. But I gather it was cooperative timesharing so the code returned back into the scheduler to let other processes run, and knew that was when the workspace might move. -- Regards, John Levine, johnl@taugh.com, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly

TSS/360 was a full OS ran only on the 360/67, which included dynamic address calculation. TSO/360 was IBM's software that ran under OS/360 and implemented "clunky timesharing" but didn't require special software. It implemented "swapping" of TSO user programs within its own address space. -- - Stephen Fuld (e-mail address disguised to prevent spam)

Well, I used that term to echo John's use. But when I used it, mid 1970s, I was used to Exec 8 on the Univac 1108, which was much better. For one thing, The control language on the Univac system for time sharing (called demand mode) was exactly the same as was used for batch mode. No need to learn a new command language. Of course, it would have been ridiculous to use JCL in interactive mode. :-( There were other advantages, many related to its tight integration with the OS, rather than a separate batch program with its own overheads on top of the OS. -- - Stephen Fuld (e-mail address disguised to prevent spam)

TSS/360 was a full >OS ran only on the 360/67, which included dynamic address translation ... Right. The /67 had paged virtual memory. TSS had a complicated object format and calling sequence in which part of each module was read only and position independent, so a single copy could be mapped into many process address spaces at different addresses, and part was read-write which was copied and relocated into each process. It didn't take them very long to realize that base registers were not a substitute for virtual memory. They added virtual memory similar to the 67's to S/370 in 1972 and soon made all the major operating systems use it. -- Regards, John Levine, johnl@taugh.com, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly

They added virtual memory hardware, page maps and page faults. All the operating systems use that, and can run either on bare hardware or under VM/370 or these days in LPARs which are sort of VM in microcode. They use virtual memory for all the usual reasons, give each process its own address space. Lynn has told us that MVS reserved so much of the address space for the operating system that they needed separate address spaces to make a reasonable number of programs fit. There was 24 bit virtual memory for a while before they added 31 bit mode. Early on there was a version of SVS that did a handshake with VM/370 so it ran in a single 16M virtual address space, which was huge at the time, and VM reflected the page faults back to SVS so it could do process switches rather than wait for each fault to be brought in. But that was several decades ago. -- Regards, John Levine, johnl@taugh.com, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly

Orignal proposal for VM 370 included debugging MVS. Once MVS moved
to virtual memory VM 370 needed to emulate this.
People sometimes distinguish paravirtualization, when guest OS is
aware and posibly depends on the host and full virtualization
where guest OS "thinks" that it is running under real hardware.
Once you have paravirtualization, there is nasty question how
guest and host should divide the work and what is the best
interface. In particular it makes sense to have all virtual
memory management in the host. But paravitialization needs
cooperation from the guest. So, for general use we have full
vitialization and consequently guest using paging hardware.

Host OS needs an entry point to Guest OS to ask for resources back while allowing Guest OS to determine which resources to return.

Nested Paging has won. Guest OS virtualizes applications and its own worker threads, while Host OS virtualized multiple Guest OSs. When Host OS virtualized Guest OS, Guest OS ISR* can page fault at Host OS level without Guest OS taking a panic. (*) ISR can also be an exception handler, or dispatcher--those things written under an assumption of no faults or exceptions. > But paravitialization needs > cooperation from the guest.

And ARM supports multiple nesting levels so a hypervisor can run as a guest of another hypervisor.

The PCI-Express SRIOV feature was developed specifically to allow direct access to the hardware by a guest operating system, and also allowed the hardware to be shared by multiple guests (or usermode DPDK/ODP applications). Far better performance than paravirtualization.
