Topic: User mode


  
 User-Mode Linux Network
The problem with having a SSH gateway is that if a user wants to copy files to their UML, they have to scp files to ssh-gate, then to their UML.
As far as users are concerned, they're running on a regular Linux system, attached to real hardware.
Keeping in mind that all the virtual machines will be running on the same physical box, we also have the problem of a rogue user gobbling up all the CPU time by doing something silly like compiling glibc on a UML.

 Kernel Mode Linux: Execute user processes in kernel mode
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.
However, in Kernel Mode Linux, a user program may be executed in kernel mode and the CPU may not switch a stack.
Unlike kernel modules, user programs are executed as ordinary processes (except for their privilege level), so scheduling and paging are performed as usual.

 :: phpPatterns() - User Mode Linux - the third way for hosting?
What makes this possible is User Mode Linux, a version of Linux which other instances of the Linux operating system to be run in a completely isolated (including IP stack) virtual machine.
In theory, having a virtual server on User Mode Linux, could be a better option than paying the fee for your own piece of hardware.
One concern I'm thinking User Mode Linux introduces though is in regard to memory use.

 Programming with User Mode Linux LG #90
There is also two mailing lists for the UML project: the user and development lists.
The setup that the uml_net program does can also be done on the host machine as the root user.
The only drawback of this method is that uml_net is a setuid program and can be a possible security vulnerability.

 User-Mode Linux Co-op
The users need to be reminded that they're now the system administrators for their own linux systems.
As each user upgrades software, makes changes to files, or otherwise makes changes to their root filesystems, their cow files will grow.
The entire contents of the users' virtual machines is stored in two files: ~/.uml/home and ~/.uml/root_fs.cow (the original root_fs is also required - dont ever let that get modified or deleted, and keep a backup or two).

 Appendix C. System/User Mode
When enabled for User mode access, a peripheral interrupt (if it is capable of generating an interrupt) can only be requested at Interrupt Priority Level -2 or -1.
In addition, any interrupt assigned to User mode is prevented (by hardware) from requesting a Level 3 interrupt.
Note that User mode writes to all other I/O registers are always ignored.

 Using the Command Line Interface
The EXEC commands available at the user level are a subset of those available at the privileged level.
After you log in to the router or access server, you are automatically in user EXEC command mode.
These sections are followed by a table ( Table 1) summarizing the main command modes, showing prompt examples and access/exit methods.

 How To Share Memory Between User Mode and Kernel Mode
This articles explains how to share memory between user mode and kernel mode, depending on whether the memory buffer is allocated by an application or by a device driver.
Because the object is always mapped in the user address space (below 0x80000000) of a process (regardless of whether the object is created in kernel mode or user mode) the address is valid only if it is accessed in the context of the process.
The easiest and best way to share memory between user mode and kernel mode is to use device input and output controls (IOCTLs).

 Linux Magazine - April 2001 Feature Story User Mode Linux:
The users of other virtual machines are completely isolated from it, and their data is not in any danger.
At this point, you may wish to start fully exploiting the existence of a new machine and network it with the host machine and any other machines that are available on your net.
All it knows is that files are being created by this process that is running as a normal user.

 Slashdot User Mode Linux
User mode Linux, with a stripped down FreeSWAN distribution, could give a much less risky and far simpler method for users and administrators to test and perhaps even deploy simple IPSec endpoints.
But if that environment is broken, the attacker gains all capabilities of the user parent.
I'd keep an eye on User Mode Linux if I were you.

 Nerditorium, MSJ, July 1999
Note that even though it appears that KeWaitForSingleObject is effectively doing what was previously being done in user mode (waiting on an event), a timeout value of zero is passed in, causing the wait to immediately return (but not before the APC is executed).
However, a setup in which a callback function is called asynchronously whenever the user-mode thread is scheduled to run would be closest to emulating ISR processing in user mode.
This would eliminate the need for dedicated threads for asynchronous processing, since scheduled routines could be integrated with the thread switching and scheduling code without the knowledge of the user-mode code.

 The Unix Command Line: Single-User Mode
This part of the process works a bit differently depending on what version of Mac OS X you're using.
This will drop you into a command line interface before the system has fully started up, giving you the chance to check/repair things before much of the normal OS X environment starts up.
Useful to find out which procedure to use to start system daemons.

 User Mode Linux
For this to work the root_fs should be read-only and only the COW file should be writable by the user running UML.
Eventhough these filesystem satisfy most requirements as far as software goes, they do not have much free space to install more software or store user files.
These filesystems are fixed in size and are built with common packages and software.

 LinuxPlanet - Tutorials - User Mode Linux: Coming to a Kernel Near You, Part 1 - What Exactly is User Mode Linux?
User Mode Linux is thusly named because it runs in user space.
One of these will be a great boon to software developers, beta testers, product reviewers, hosting services, and more: User Mode Linux (UML).
Your UML filesystem is actually contained in a single file (per UML you've set up), swap space and all, making it a sort of filesystem within a filesystem.

 Patch prevents Single-User mode in OS X MacNN News
With single user mode, a very unsophisticated user (like myself) could easily change the passwords, change all the system settings, and generally trash the computer.
For anyone who wants that data, booting into single user mode is likely the least convenient avenue for getting it once physical access is available.
My favorite example is computer labs - the harder it is for people to mess up a given system, the better.

Impact: A local user could execute code on the system outside of the UML environment.
A local user could execute arbitrary system calls on the host outside of the UML environment.
For example, a process with root privileges inside a UML that is running with 'nobody' could cause the system call to execute as 'nobody'.

 Cygwin User's Guide
This is because one user could affect the Cygwin programs run by another user by changing the shared memory information in ways that they could not in a more typical WinNT program.
This is appropriate since essentially all users jointly own the files when no concept of file ownership exists.
The user mount table takes precedence over the system-wide table if a path is mounted in both.

 Know Your Enemy: Learning with User-Mode Linux
Many users or organization that want to research Honeynets may not have the resources for deployments.
Therefore, this paper will focus on building a Honeynet using a single computer and free, OpenSource software.

To develop a new printer graphics DLL that executes in user mode, you can continue to use all the graphics DDI functions used by kernel-mode DLLs.
Therefore, for Windows® 2000 and later, you can design a printer graphics DLL to execute in either kernel mode or user mode.
All other Eng -prefixed functions available to kernel-mode printer graphics DLLs are also available in user mode.

 macosxhints - Single user mode and open firmware passwords
The computer will then shutdown to single user mode and once there you can run "fsck -y" to verify the drive.
Would it be a better idea to have a non-password account on the computer with limited privileges (you could even go in to the terminal and nail permissions specifically) so that the thief can at least carry on using the computer and not break it in frustration?
You could meticulously scour the fake user's library and lock any preferences as root to stop things being tampered with.
