Description:
Kernel Mode Linux project is a technology which enables us to
execute user programs in kernel mode. In Kernel Mode Linux, user
programs can be executed as user processes that have the privilege
level of kernel mode.
The benefit of executing user programs in kernel mode is that
the user programs can access a kernel address space directly. So,
for example, user programs can invoke system calls very fast
because it is unnecessary to switch between a kernel mode and a
user mode by using costly software interruptions or context
switches.
Unlike kernel modules, user programs are executed as ordinary
processes (except for their privilege level), so scheduling and
paging are performed as usual.
Although it seems dangerous to let user programs access a
kernel directly, safety of the kernel can be ensured, for example,
by static type checking, software fault isolation, and so
forth.
For proof of concept, we are developing a system which is based
on the combination of Kernel Mode Linux and Typed Assembly
Language, TAL. (TAL can ensure safety of programs through its type
checking and the type checking can be done at machine binary
level.
Limitations:
· User processes executed in kernel mode should obey the
following limitations. Otherwise, your system will be in an
undefined state. In the worst-case scenario, your system will
crash.
· On IA-32, programs executed in kernel mode shouldn't
modify their CS, DS, FS and SS registers.
· On AMD64, programs executed in kernel mode shouldn't
modify their CS register.
· In addition, on AMD64, IA-32 binaries cannot be
executed in kernel mode.
What's New in This Release:
· A bug in fixing VDSOs was fixed.
