Question

How a buffer memory allocate its memory through the linker?

(a) statically

(b) dynamically

(c) linearly

(d) non-linearly

This question was addressed to me during an interview for a job.

This question is from Buffer Memory topic in portion Buffering and other Data Structures of Embedded Systems

Answer 1

Correct answer is (a) statically

The best I can explain: The buffer memory can be allocated mainly in two ways, statically and dynamically. Statically, the memory is allocated through the linker and dynamically it can allocate memory during runtime by calling an operating system.
