  3. Supervisor Mode Access Prevention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supervisor_mode_access...

    Supervisor Mode Access Prevention (SMAP) is a feature of some CPU implementations such as the Intel Broadwell microarchitecture that allows supervisor mode programs to optionally set user-space memory mappings so that access to those mappings from supervisor mode will cause a trap.

  4. NX bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NX_bit

    The NX bit (no-execute) is a technology used in CPUs to segregate areas of a virtual address space to store either data or processor instructions. An operating system with support for the NX bit may mark certain areas of an address space as non-executable. The processor will then refuse to execute any code residing in these areas of the address ...

  5. Executable-space protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable-space_protection

    macOS for Intel supports the NX bit on all CPUs supported by Apple (from Mac OS X 10.4.4 – the first Intel release – onwards). Mac OS X 10.4 only supported NX stack protection. In Mac OS X 10.5, all 64-bit executables have NX stack and heap; W^X protection. This includes x86-64 (Core 2 or later) and 64-bit PowerPC on the G5 Macs.

  6. Rufus (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rufus_(software)

    Rufus was originally designed [5] as a modern open source replacement for the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool for Windows, [6] which was primarily used to create DOS bootable USB flash drives. The first official release of Rufus, version 1.0.3 (earlier versions were internal/alpha only [ 7 ] ), was released on December 4, 2011, with originally ...

  7. Hyper-threading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper-threading

    The Intel Core & Core 2 processor lines (2006) that succeeded the Pentium 4 model line didn't utilize hyper-threading. The processors based on the Core microarchitecture did not have hyper-threading because the Core microarchitecture was a descendant of the older P6 microarchitecture .

  8. ARM architecture family - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture_family

    F (bit 6) is the FIQ disable bit. I (bit 7) is the IRQ disable bit. A (bit 8) is the imprecise data abort disable bit. E (bit 9) is the data endianness bit. IT (bits 10–15 and 25–26) is the if-then state bits. GE (bits 16–19) is the greater-than-or-equal-to bits. DNM (bits 20–23) is the do not modify bits. J (bit 24) is the Java state bit.

  9. Intel Management Engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Management_Engine

    Previous versions were based on an ARC core, with the Management Engine running the ThreadX RTOS. Versions 1.x to 5.x of the ME used the ARCTangent-A4 (32-bit only instructions) whereas versions 6.x to 8.x used the newer ARCompact (mixed 32- and 16-bit instruction set architecture).
