  2. Universally unique identifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier

    This number would be equivalent to generating 1 billion UUIDs per second for about 86 years. A file containing this many UUIDs, at 16 bytes per UUID, would be about 43.4 exabytes (37.7 EiB). The smallest number of version-4 UUIDs which must be generated for the probability of finding a collision to be p is approximated by the formula

  3. GUID Partition Table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table

    The layout of a disk with the GUID Partition Table. In this example, each logical block is 512 bytes in size and each entry has 128 bytes. The corresponding partition entries are assumed to be located in LBA 2–33. Negative LBA addresses indicate a position from the end of the volume, with −1 being the last addressable block.

  4. Mach-O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach-O

    The section alignment is the logarithm, base 2, of the byte alignment in the file required for the Mach-O image to which the entry refers; for example, a value of 14 means that the image must be aligned on a 2 14-byte boundary, i.e. a 16384-byte boundary. This is required by tools that modify the multi-architecture binary, in order for them to ...

  5. 128-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/128-bit_computing

    Universally unique identifiers (UUID) consist of a 128-bit value. IPv6 routes computer network traffic amongst a 128-bit range of addresses. ZFS is a 128-bit file system. 128 bits is a common key size for symmetric ciphers and a common block size for block ciphers in cryptography. The IBM i Machine Interface defines all pointers as 128-bit. The ...

  6. Unique identifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_identifier

    A unique identifier (UID) is an identifier that is guaranteed to be unique among all identifiers used for those objects and for a specific purpose. [1] The concept was formalized early in the development of computer science and information systems.

  7. U-form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-form

    A UUID is defined as an array of bytes that is intended to be unique in the Universe. Note that these are not limited to the standards for ISO, Microsoft, or DCE UUIDs though those are examples of acceptable sources of UUIDs. Attribute names are case-folded and normalized strings of Unicode characters

  8. User identifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_identifier

    The effective UID (euid) of a process is used for most access checks.It is also used as the owner for files created by that process. The effective GID (egid) of a process also affects access control and may also affect file creation, depending on the semantics of the specific kernel implementation in use and possibly the mount options used.

  9. Organizationally unique identifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organizationally_unique...

    However, since IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet) and IEEE 802.4 send the bytes (octets) over the wire, left-to-right, with least significant bit in each byte first, while IEEE 802.5 and IEEE 802.6 send the bytes over the wire with the most significant bit first, confusion may arise when an OUI in the latter scenario is represented with bits reversed from ...
