In this exercise, your goal is to develop two processes, a sender and a receiver process that will communicate via the CPU cache.
To solve the exercise, you have to implement the TODOs inside sender.c and receiver.c.
You can build the code by executing the make command. This will compile the files sender.c and receiver.c
Afterward, you need to spawn two terminal windows.
First, you start a terminal with the sender process:
./sender
Second, you start a terminal with the receiver process:
./receiver
Next, you can start typing messages inside the sender prompt that will be received and printed by the second process.
A working solution could look like this: Terminal 1:
./sender
Enter character to send: C
Sent 'C'
Enter character to send: O
Sent 'O'
Enter character to send: V
Sent 'V'
Enter character to send: E
Sent 'E'
Enter character to send: R
Sent 'R'
Enter character to send: T
Sent 'T'
Enter character to send:
Terminal 2:
./receiver
Received 'C'
Received 'O'
Received 'V'
Received 'E'
Received 'R'
Received 'T'
