SoK: Shining Light on Shadow Stacks

Mathias Josef Payer, Xiangyu Zhang

Control-Flow Hijacking attacks are the dominant attack vector against C/C++ programs. Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) solutions mitigate these attacks on the forward edge, i.e., indirect calls through function pointers and virtual calls. Protecting the backwa ...

Multi-Objective System-Level Management of Modern Green Data Centers

Ali Pahlevan

In our modern society, the average citizen has turned into a daily cloud user. Despite being virtually transparent for the user, internet services require data centers behind the scenes. Data centers burn several megawatts of power and their electricity bi ...

Hardware and Software Support for Virtualization

Edouard Bugnion

This book focuses on the core question of the necessary architectural support provided by hardware to efficiently run virtual machines, and of the corresponding design of the hypervisors that run them. Virtualization is still possible when the instruction ...

The IX Operating System: Combining Low Latency, High Throughput, and Efficiency in a Protected Dataplan

Edouard Bugnion, Christos Kozyrakis, Georgios Prekas, Mia Primorac, Ana Klimovic

The conventional wisdom is that aggressive networking requirements, such as high packet rates for small messages and μs-scale tail latency, are best addressed outside the kernel, in a user-level networking stack. We present ix, a dataplane operating system ...
