Consider a computer system with multiple shared resource types, with one instance per resource type. Each instance can be owned by only one process at a time. Owning and freeing of resources are done by holding a global lock (L). The following scheme is used to own a resource instance : function OWNRESOURCE(Resource R) Acquire lock L // a global lock if R is available then Acquire R Release lock L else if R is owned by another process P then Terminate P, after releasing all resources owned by P Acquire R Restart P Release lock L end if end if end function Which of the following choice(s) about the above scheme is/are correct?
