I found John's version easier to read and I have added an extra sheet "permissions" to it showing the effect of the 4 different schemes. I give an idea of how to program the different modes, but I'm mainly showing which combinations of M-mode permissions S/U-mode permissions Locked / unlocked ....are possible. I'm planning to use this to help an internal discussion on the options in the next few days. Tariq -----Original Message-----

(I edited Allen's file with LibreOffice on Linux. Hope it comes through clear for everyone.) Since the MML and MSL variables serve the same purpose, I've rearranged the tables to keep those dimensions aligned. Also, I feel that the question of whether a "security exception" or an ordinary access fault is taken is an entirely separate debate, so I removed that distinction from the tables. I've made some other simplifications and realignments to aid comparison, as you'll see. Regards, - John Hauser |
