kernel thread vs user thread The most important difference is they use different memory, the kernel mode thread can access any kernel memory, while the user mode can only access the user memory. 相信世界是平的 谨记四个字
The method includes sharing at least two RAM banks between a consumer process or thread and a producer process or thread, thereby allowing memory to be exchanged between said consumer process or thread and said producer process or thread, and alternately assigning ownership of a shared RAM bank ...
During load balancing, the Timer (special thread) distributes the tasks to the individual user kernel threads. At regular intervals, the Timer analyzes how long the individual tasks have been waiting in the user kernel threads and adds up these wait times for each user kernel thread. If the ...
Figure 1: Kernel thread If we use kernel level threads, the operating system will have a descriptor for each thread belonging to a process and it will schedule all the threads. This method is commonly called one to one. Each user thread corresponds to a kernel thread (figure )...
Returns the identifier of this process’s uid. This is the kernel uid that the process is running under, which is the identity of its app-specific sandbox. It is different from myUserHandle() in that a uid identifies a specific app sandbox in a specific user. ...
或许大部分 kernel hacker 在阅读本篇文章之前便已经听说过 userfaultfd + setxattr 这一内核堆利用技术,亦或是自己成功利用该技术完成对内核中一些漏洞的利用(例如 CVE-2019-15666),此时看到“堆占位”这一名称或许会感到有些疑惑——因为这两个技术相结合的利用或许与“堆喷射”(heap spray)有关?
The first cons is the biggest problem since each thread requires a certain amount of system (and kernel) resources. Among others, each thread has its own stack. To accomodate a large number of simultanous connections, the stack size has to be kept small, up to a point where either it's...
thread watches for activity. The KVM kernel module has a feature known as ioeventfd for taking an eventfd and hooking it up to a particular guest I/O exit. QEMU userspace registers an ioeventfd for the VIRTIO_PCI_QUEUE_NOTIFY hardware register access which kicks the virtqueue. This is how...

首先打开kernel/swtch.S,查阅 riscv calling convention ,验证这段代码可以完成寄存器的切换。注意 ra 表示返回地址,sp 表示当前栈顶。直接复制到user/uthread_switch.S即可。 接着在kernel/proc.h中,找到上述代码配套的context结构体声明,复制到user/uthread.c中。
