Tolerating hardware device failures in software
Hardware devices can fail, but many drivers assume they do not. When confronted with real devices that misbehave, these assumptions can lead to driver or system failures. While ma...

Device Driver Safety Through a Reference Validation Mechanism
Device drivers typically execute in supervisor mode and thus must be fully trusted. This paper describes how to move them out of the trusted computing base, by running them withou...
