  2. Year 2038 problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

    Starting with Ruby version 1.9.2 (released on 18 August 2010), the bug with year 2038 is fixed, [16] by storing time in a signed 64-bit integer on systems with 32-bit time_t. [17] Starting with NetBSD version 6.0 (released in October 2012), the NetBSD operating system uses a 64-bit time_t for both 32-bit and 64-bit

  3. Kernel panic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_panic

    After recompiling a kernel binary image from source code, a kernel panic while booting the resulting kernel is a common problem if the kernel was not correctly configured, compiled or installed. [8] Add-on hardware or malfunctioning RAM could also be sources of fatal kernel errors during start up, due to incompatibility with the OS or a missing ...

  4. Project Jupyter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Jupyter

    Project Jupyter's name is a reference to the three core programming languages supported by Jupyter, which are Julia, Python and R. Its name and logo are an homage to Galileo's discovery of the moons of Jupiter, as documented in notebooks attributed to Galileo. Jupyter is financially sponsored by NumFOCUS. [1]

  5. General protection fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_protection_fault

    A general protection fault (GPF) in the x86 instruction set architectures (ISAs) is a fault (a type of interrupt) initiated by ISA-defined protection mechanisms in response to an access violation caused by some running code, either in the kernel or a user program.

  6. Tickless kernel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickless_kernel

    A tickless kernel is an operating system kernel in which timer interrupts do not occur at regular intervals, but are only delivered as required. [1]The Linux kernel on s390 from 2.6.6 [2] and on i386 from release 2.6.21 [3] can be configured to turn the timer tick off (tickless or dynamic tick) for idle CPUs using CONFIG_NO_HZ, and from 3.10 with CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE extended for non-idle ...

  7. Initial ramdisk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initial_ramdisk

    The bootloader will load the kernel and initial root file system image into memory and then start the kernel, passing in the memory address of the image. At the end of its boot sequence, the kernel tries to determine the format of the image from its first few blocks of data, which can lead either to the initrd or initramfs scheme.

  8. ntoskrnl.exe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ntoskrnl

    The upper part is accessible only from kernel mode, and with some exceptions, is instantiated just once, system-wide. ntoskrnl.exe is mapped into this region, as are several other kernel mode components. This region also contains data used by kernel mode code, such as the kernel mode heaps and the file system cache.

  9. Booting process of Linux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting_process_of_Linux

    The startup function startup_32() for the kernel (also called the swapper or process 0) establishes memory management (paging tables and memory paging), detects the type of CPU and any additional functionality such as floating point capabilities, and then switches to non-architecture specific Linux kernel functionality via a call to start ...
