The secure trust relationship between communicating programs is established at any policy defined level down to individual program instances. Policy enforcement modules installed on host computer systems support qualified encrypted communications channels between discretely selected program instances. Program instances are qualified to establish communication channels, each defined by a unique session encryption key, based on an evaluation of security data including the individual process execution contexts, user authorizations, and access attributes of the program instances. A security appliance server performs the policy-based qualification based on a mutually interdependent evaluation of the security data for both the communications channel source and target program instances.

Technologies are generally described for runtime management of processes on multicore processing systems using process affinity graphs. Two or more processes may be determined to be related when the processes share interprocess messaging traffic. These related processes may be allocated to neighboring or nearby processor cores within a multicore processor using graph theory techniques as well as communication analysis techniques to evaluate interprocess communication needs. Process affinity graphs may be established to aid in determining grouping of processors and evaluating interprocess message traffic between groups of processes. The process affinity graphs may be based upon process affinity scores determined by monitoring and analyzing interprocess messaging traffic. Process affinity graphs may further inform splitting process affinity groups from one core onto two or more cores.

The present invention is directed to a system, method and software program product for extending the use of Unix domain sockets to support multiple operating system images. An application creates a Unix domain socket using the sockets system call and binds the socket to a system file pathname for a service using an appropriate system call. The system file pathname represents the connection binding to the service. The operating system running the application may recognize that the service does not reside on the same operating system image and, therefore, a Unix domain socket cannot be used to communicate. To the operating system the system file pathname represents the binding that translates to a pathname that represents a real I / O device for cross-system communications. The operating system translates the system file pathname to a device pathname for the service. An appropriate transport is selected for the device and the transport invokes the point-to-point I / O device. Interprocess communication can then proceed.

A method to dynamically alter the availability or characteristics of specified system resources (e.g. interprocess communications facilities or tuning variables that control operating efficiency) is described. The inventive method is unique in that it allows the modification of system resources without the need to rebuild and re-initialized (i.e., reboot) the operating system. If required by the specific alteration being performed, creation of new kernel control structures may require that one or more of a kernel's static-type data structures be converted to dynamic-type data structures.

A multiprocessor system includes multiple processors executing multiple processes that send messages to each other. The system uses a connectionless single-window inter-process communication (IPC) protocol to avoid the high message-processing overhead of a connection-based protocol like TCP. The IPC protocol uses a central message-receive service that runs in the kernel on each processor to handle error-checking and sequence number checking and acknowledge received messages, while the single-window mechanism avoids out-of-order message reordering / buffering complexity. Since each process sending a message does not need to wait for the receiving process (which may be otherwise preoccupied or not even the focus of the receiving processor when the message is received and queued) before receiving acknowledgments, the protocol greatly reduces single-window message latency for all processes without resorting to complex connection-based multi-packet transmission windows.
