I have been recently asked this question during interview, "What is D
state and when does process goes in D
state. I explained what D
state is and then gave the answer that when the process is performing I/O
operation that is when its in D
state.
The interviewer (its on of the high tech companies in the world) said that there is other reason when process goes in D
state, what reason could that be, but I couldn't think of anything else.
This answer When a process will go to 'D' state? also explains its usually I/O which sends a process in D
state, which I understand clearly.
Can someone please tell me what are some other reasons for process being in D state except performing I/O?
