Unisys suddenly loves Linux: Should
Linux users return that love?

Unisys suddenly loves Linux: Should
Linux users return that love? 08/16/2004 02:19 PM
Unisys has long been the main booster -- possibly the only one besides Microsoft -- of Windows as a mainframe operating system. Now Unisys says it loves Linux -- but still claims to be a staunch Microsoft partner -- and it seems like most of its contributions to the Linux kernel are only useful to Unisys customers. And then there's the specter of the Unisys GIF patents (now expired), and how the company used them as weapons against free and open source software projects only a few years ago. In light of all this, should we welcome Unisys as a "member of the Linux community" with open arms, or maintain a skeptical distance until the company proves that it has truly seen the open source light?

Kernel Mode Linux 2.4.30_001 (For Linux
2.4 branch)

Kernel Mode Linux 2.4.30_001 (For Linux
2.4 branch) 04/05/2005 11:56 AM
Kernel Mode Linux is a technology which enables the execution of user programs in a kernel mode. In Kernel Mode Linux, user programs can access kernel address space directly. 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, the safety of the kernel can be ensured through such methods as static type checking, software fault isolation, and so forth.

This version was merged with the 2.4.30 Linux kernel.

Openwall Linux kernel patch 2.4.30-ow1
(Linux 2.4 branch)

Openwall Linux kernel patch 2.4.30-ow1
(Linux 2.4 branch) 04/08/2005 10:32 AM
The Openwall Linux kernel patch is a collection of security "hardening" features for the Linux kernel. In addition to the new features, some versions of the patch contain various security fixes. The "hardening" features of the patch, while not a complete method of protection, provide an extra layer of security against the easier ways to exploit certain classes of vulnerabilities and/or reduce the impact of those vulnerabilities. The patch can also add a little bit more privacy to the system by restricting access to parts of /proc so that users may not see what others are doing.

MOSIX Cluster Management 1.13.1 for
Linux 2.4.30 (Linux 2.4 branch) 04/07/2005 10:26 AM
MOSIX is a management system that allows a cluster of x86 nodes to perform like a parallel computer. It is particularly suitable to run intensive computing and massive I/O applications. In a MOSIX system there is no need to modify applications, link them with any library, or even assign processes to different nodes. It is done automatically, just "fork and forget", like in an SMP system. MOSIX is geared toward improved performance, overhead-free scalability and ease-of-use.

Linux-VServer 1.9.5 (Linux 2.6
Development branch) 03/24/2005 05:25 AM
Linux-VServer allows you to create virtual private servers and security contexts which operate like a normal Linux server, but allow many independent servers to be run simultaneously in one box at full speed. All services, such as ssh, mail, Web, and databases, can be started on such a VPS, without modification, just like on any real server. Each virtual server has its own user account database and root password and doesn't interfere with other virtual servers.

---

Changes:
A small bug in IPv6 hiding was fixed, a memory leak in an error path was removed, and a mysterious double allocation issue in x25 was fixed. iunlink and barrier update for XFS as well as the proc/mounts virtualization were corrected. A new claim/release scheme replaces the double refcounting. Legacy support was separated, and a bunch of new limits/accountings were added (anon_rss, locks, shm, forks). A new ccap that protects network mounts was added. Compile time information was added to the proc info.
