User guide to software for avionics systems
,----[ Quote ]
| Linux
|
| Linux is now an option many project
| managers for aerospace and defence
| applications and companies such as
| Honeywell have already deployed in space-
| borne systems.
|
| For deployments where security is a
| concern, the US National Security Agency
| (NSA) has developed a Security-Enhanced
| Linux (SE-Linux), a set of Linux security
| features that provide a variety of
| security policies, including US Department
| of Defenseâstyle mandatory access control
| through the use of Linux Security Modules
| (LSMs) for the open source Linux kernel.
|
| SE-Linux is not a Linux distribution but a
| set of security modifications (patches)
| that can be applied to any Linux or UNIX
| operating system.
|
| Traditionally, Linux scheduling and
| interrupt performance, although quite
| adequate for enterprise and desktop
| systems, was not very deterministic and
| had a wide variance over changing system
| conditions in embedded environments. This
| made Linux unsuitable for use in
| traditional embedded systems that demand
| microsecond response times.
|
| But two advances have changed this
| situation: a modification of the Linux
| core, named PREEMPT_RT, and a fast,
| deterministic scheduler inside the Linux
| system, named Real-Time Core for Linux.
