Question

Accepted Answer

Deadlock is a situation where two or more processes are unable to proceed due to a circular dependency on resources.

Deadlock occurs when two or more processes are waiting for resources held by each other.
Conditions for deadlock are mutual exclusion, hold and wait, no preemption, and circular wait.
Methods to prevent deadlock include resource allocation graph, banker's algorithm, and deadlock avoidance.
To prevent deadlock in OS, use resource allocation graph and banker's algorithm to ensure safe state.
Code to prevent deadlock in OS for two processes P0 and P1 requesting resources dynamically involves checking for safe state before granting resources.
