  3. File-system permissions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File-system_permissions

    Distinct permissions apply to the owner. Files and directories are assigned a group, which define the file's group class. Distinct permissions apply to members of the file's group. The owner may be a member of the file's group. Users who are not the owner, nor a member of the group, comprise a file's others class. Distinct permissions apply to ...

  4. setuid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setuid

    The Unix and Linux access rights flags setuid and setgid (short for set user identity and set group identity) [1] allow users to run an executable with the file system permissions of the executable's owner or group respectively and to change behaviour in directories. They are often used to allow users on a computer system to run programs with ...

  5. umask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask

    In computing, umask is a command that determines the settings of a mask that controls how file permissions are set for newly created files. It may also affect how the file permissions are changed explicitly. umask is also a function that sets the mask, or it may refer to the mask itself, which is formally known as the file mode creation mask.

  6. Unix security - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_security

    A core security feature in these systems is the file system permissions. All files in a typical Unix filesystem have permissions set enabling different access to a file. Unix permissions permit different users access to a file with different privilege (e.g., reading, writing, execution).

  7. Filesystem Hierarchy Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard

    Modern Linux distributions include a /sys directory as a virtual filesystem (sysfs, comparable to /proc, which is a procfs), which stores and allows modification of the devices connected to the system, [20] whereas many traditional Unix-like operating systems use /sys as a symbolic link to the kernel source tree.

  8. Sticky bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_bit

    the process has write permission for the file; the process has the P_OWNER privilege; If a 0410 a.out executable file has the sticky bit (mode bit 01000) set, the operating system will not delete the program text from the swap area when the last user process terminates. If a 0413 a.out or ELF executable file has the sticky bit set, the ...

  9. Filesystem in Userspace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace

    At the time the file system is mounted, the handler is registered with the kernel. If a user now issues read/write/stat requests for this newly mounted file system, the kernel forwards these IO-requests to the handler and then sends the handler's response back to the user. Unmounting a FUSE-based file system with the fusermount command
