Circular wait prevention consists of allowing processes to wait for resources, but ensure that the waiting can't be circular. One approach might be to assign a precedence to each resource and force processes to allocate resources in order of increasing precedence. That is to say that if a process holds some resources, and the highest precedence of these resources is m, then this process cannot request any resource with precedence smaller than m. This forces resource allocation to follow a particular and non-circular ordering, so circular wait cannot occur.
