1.0 Overview
This is the README file for the sample loaded system call.
2.0 Directions
To test the module, do the following:
cd module
make load
A load message (the copyright) will be printed on the console.
cd ../test
make load
The system call prints a message on the console when called.
This message will be printed when running "make load" in
the "test" subdirectory.
3.0 Recovering resources
The system call consumes 8 pages of memory when loaded; it
can be freed up by unloading it. To unload it, type the
following from the directory this file is in:
cd module
