The foremost reasons for this are the cultural and knowledge gaps between formalists and OS hackers, fostered by three beliefs: inaccessibility of the tools, the disabling gap between the validated model and actual implementation, and the intractable size of OSs. In this paper, we show these beliefs to be untrue for appropriately structured OSs. We applied formal methods to verify properties of the implementation of the Fluke microkernel's IPC (interprocess communication) subsystem, a major component of the kernel. In particular, we have verified, in many scenarios, certain liveness properties and lack of deadlock, with results that apply to both SMP (scalable multiprocessor) and uniprocessor environments. The SPIN model checker provided an exhaustive concurrency analysis of the IPC subsystem, unattainable through traditional OS testing methods. SPIN is easily accessible to programmers inexperienced with formal methods. We present our results as a starting point for a more comprehensive inclusion of formal methods in practical OS development.","PeriodicalId":176246,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

Preventing denial-of-service attacks on a /spl mu/-kernel for WebOSes 防止针对/spl mu/-kernel的拒绝服务攻击

This will make applications more easily available to clients, but some of these applications may be malicious. Thus, a WebOS must be able to control the downloaded content's behavior. We examine a specific type of malicious activity: denial of service attacks using legal system operations. A denial of service attack occurs when an attacker prevents other users from performing their authorized operations. Even when the attacker may not be able to perform such operations. Current systems either do little to prevent denial of service attacks or have a limited scope of prevention of such attacks. For a WebOS, however, the ability to prevent denial of service should be an integral part of the system. We are developing a WebOS using the L4 /spl mu/ kernel as its substrate. We evaluate L4 as a basis of a system that can prevent denial of service attacks. In particular, we identify the /spl mu/ kernel related resources which are subject to denial of service attacks and define /spl mu/ kernel mechanisms to defend against such attacks. Our analysis demonstrates that system resource utilization can be managed by trusted user level servers to prevent denial of service attacks on such resources.","PeriodicalId":176246,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.
