Abstract
Among other disclosed subject matter, a computer-implemented method includes changing access permission level associated with a descriptor table responsive to request to update the descriptor table. In some implementation, before receiving the request to update, the descriptor table is maintained in a read-only state; and changing the access permission level comprises: allowing write access to the descriptor table responsive to determining that the update request is authorized.
