Agenda - weekly call, March 29 2022

Christoffer will be joining us once again, to continue the technical discussion on his document. 

Just to remind you, here is the link to his doc in github   https://github.com/challfre/wg-lfscs/blob/main/address_space_integrity/address_space_integrity.md


Some suggestions, but will be opened to other ideas as well:

  1. Clarify all assumptions, the explicit ones which we discussed already (MMU support by HW architecture, reduced privilege / non-root execution by user space application), as well as any others.   And their implications.
  2. Virtual memory management, boot time vs run time:  what can be expected at each stage, what are the implications for safety.
  3. Kernel configurations, pros and cons of those which he listed + any others

Thanks, Christoffer, and looking forward to a productive discussion tomorrow.

Regards

Elana
