Abstract: A method is presented that includes detecting, by a loader, overlapping permissions for a page while loading a binary file. When writable data overlaps with read-only code in a page, the loader copies the code part of the page with the overlapping permissions to a new page. The original page is set non-executable. The new page can be set executable but read-only. When execution reaches the now non-executable original page, a segmentation fault may be raised. A signal handler installed by the loader detects that the fault is coming from the original page and redirects execution to the new page with the copied code part.

Abstract: Synchronizing time-of-day (TOD) between TOD components includes issuing an order for a plurality of TOD components, each including a local time, an offset, and an effective time as a sum of the local time and the offset. The effective time of a reference TOD component is the reference time to which target TOD component(s) are to be synchronized. The order directs each of the plurality of TOD components to synchronously, at a point in time, snapshot its local time. This provides a snapshot of the effective time of the reference TOD component, and thus the reference time. The synchronizing synchronizes each target TOD component to the reference time by setting the respective offset as a difference between the target TOD component's snapshot local time and the snapshot of the reference time. Based on the synchronizing, the effective times of the plurality of TOD components match and are the reference time.
