Descriptions

The process scheduler in the Sun Solaris kernel does not make use of the process statistics kept by the kernel and performs scheduling based upon CPU billing gathered from periodic process sampling ticks, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption), as described in "Secretly Monopolizing the CPU Without Superuser Privileges."

El programador de procesos del núcleo de Sun Solaris no hace uso de las estadísticas de procesos mantenidas por el núcleo, realiza la programación basándose en "facturación" (billing) de CPU recogida de muestreo periódico de procesos, y da preferencia a procesos "interactivos" que realizan esperas voluntarias (sleeps), lo cual permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (agotamiento de CPU), como se ha descrito en "Monopolizando Secretamente la CPU sin Privilegios de Superusuario" (Secretly Monopolizing the CPU Without Superuser Privileges).
