Failure Resilience for Device Drivers
Studies have shown that device drivers and extensions contain 3–7 times more bugs than other operating system code and thus are more likely to fail. Therefore, we present a fail...

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...

Dingo: taming device drivers
Device drivers are notorious for being a major source of failure in operating systems. In analysing a sample of real defects in Linux drivers, we found that a large proportion (39...
