Assuming this is not already known to everyone, though it was apparently published in late 2009...
Apparently Chrome OS plans to use containers to increase system security. See http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/chromiumos-design-docs/system-hardening (In particular, 'minijail' and 'libminijail'.) Update from August 20 this year: "we have minijail implemented, just not feature-complete". http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=380 Code is available to browse here: http://git.chromium.org/gitweb/?p=minijail.git;a=tree The code itself states: "XXX This is a very early implementation of the jailing logic. XXX Many features are missing or will be made more tunable." Hope the above is of interest to some! - Walter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Lxc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxc-users
