Veriexec is a file signing scheme for the NetBSD operating system. It introduces a special device node tt dev veriexec tt through which a digital signature signature list can be loaded into the kernel computer science kernel . The list contains path computing file paths , together with cryptographic hash hashes and an expected file type DIRECT for executables, INDIRECT for scripts and FILE for shared libraries and regular files . The kernel then verifies the contents of the signed files against their hashes just before they are opened in an tt exec tt or tt open tt system call . When Veriexec is enabled at level 0, the kernel will simply warn about signature mismatches. At level 1, it will prevent access to mismatched files. At level 2, it prevents signed files from being overwritten or deleted. At the highest, level 3, the kernel will not allow unsigned files to be accessed at all.

Scheduler Activations is a thread computer science thread ing mechanism that, when implemented in an operating system s process Scheduling computing scheduler , provides kernel level thread functionality with user level thread flexibility and performance. This mechanism uses a so called N M strategy that maps some N number of application threads onto some M number of kernel entities, or virtual processors. This is a compromise between kernel level 1 1 and user level N 1 threading. In general, N M threading systems are more complex to implement than either kernel or user threads, because both changes to kernel and user space code are required. Scheduler Activations was proposed by Anderson, Bershad, Edward D. Lazowska Lazowska , and Hank Levy computer scientist Levy in http www.cs.washington.edu homes bershad Papers p53 anderson.pdf Scheduler Activations Effective Kernel Support for the User Level Management of Parallelism in 1991.
