Utilizing Linux Kernel Components in K42
This paper discusses how K42 uses Linux-kernel components to support a wide range of hardware, a full-featured TCP/IP stack and Linux le-systems. An examination of the run-time environment within the Linux-kernel is the starting point for a presentation of the strategy taken to incorporate Linux-kernel code in K42. There are...

Linux Inside: Introduction
The most important Linux event of the year has been the release of the Linux 2.2 kernel. The kernel is the engine, or heart, of Linux and is the part that Linus Torvalds created and continues to work on with his merry band of developers. As you probably know, Linux...

Linux and Windows Security: Why Windows Is Inherently Less Secure Than Linux
Although the scope of this paper appears straightforward at it's surface, "Windows vs. Linux" is surprisingly broad. Linux is perhaps less homogeneous than Windows. Although Linux Torvalds retains the copyright to the Linux name, and ultimately controls the Linux kernel, the kernel is but a small part of the operating...

Automatic Placement of Authorization Hooks in the Linux Security Modules Framework
The authors present a technique for automatic placement of authorization hooks, and apply it to the Linux Security Modules LSM framework. LSM is a generic framework which allows diverse authorization policies to be enforced by the Linux kernel. It consists of a kernel module which encapsulates an authorization policy, and...

Linux as a Real-Time Operating System
Linux is a full-featured UNIX implementation. The main design criterion of the Linux kernel is the throughput, while real-time and predictability is not an issue. The main handicap to considering Linux as a real-time system is that the kernel is not preemptable; that is, while the processor executes kernel code,...

Linux Kernel Specialization for Scientific Application Performance: UCSB Technical Report CS2005-29
Linux has emerged as the system-of-choice in academic and production scientific computing settings. Much of the functionality in the Linux kernel, however, has been designed to arbitrate between competing applications thus ensuring safety and fairness. In this paper, the authors investigate the performance effects of specializing the Linux kernel for...

Linux Kernel in a Nutshell: Configuring and Building
The kernel configuration is kept in a file called .config in the top directory of the kernel source tree. If one has just expanded the kernel source code, there will be no .config file, so it needs to be created. It can be created from scratch, created by basing it...

Realtime Audio Vs. Linux 2.6
From the beginning of its development kernel 2.6 promised latency as low as a patched 2.4 kernel. These claims proved to be premature when testing of the 2.6.7 kernel showed it was much worse than 2.4. I present here a review of the most significant latency problems discovered and solved...

Yearning for the days of rolling your own kernel
It used to be, you know - back in the day, that you almost always had to roll your own Linux kernel. Inevitably, there was a feature you needed or a bit of hardware unsupported in the standard kernel. Be it a specific networking card, sound card, wireless...you name it...we...

Linux Kernel do_brk() Vulnerability
A critical security bug has been found in the Linux kernel 2.4.22 and earlier memory management subsystem. This bug has been silently fixed for the 2.4.23 as well as in the 2.6.0-test6 release without any notice to the open source community. While performing a regular audit of the Linux kernel...

Improving Verification, Validation, and Test of the Linux Kernel: The Linux Stabilization Project
Small projects tend to have virtually no testing performed by anyone other than the author of the program. Larger projects depend upon a community of users to find and fix problems through use rather than disciplined test methods. The Linux kernel is becoming an exception. In this case an increasing...

Class-Based Prioritized Resource Control in Linux
In Linux, control of key resources such as memory, CPU time, disk I/O bandwidth and network bandwidth is strongly tied to kernel tasks and address spaces. The kernel offers very limited support for enforcing user specified priorities during the allocation of these resources. The paper argues that Linux kernel resource...
