On newer kernels (since 2.6.12 [7]), it is possible to have more fine-grained control over how the magic SysRq key can be used. [8] On these machines, the number written to /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq can be 0, 1, or a number greater than 1 which is a bitmask indicating which features to allow.

[1] [2] It consists of a Linux kernel with ramdisk on a separate partition from the main Android system.

In cryptography, the key-recovery advantage (KR advantage) of a particular algorithm is a measure of how effective an algorithm can mount a key-recovery attack. Consequently, the maximum key-recovery advantage attainable by any algorithm with a fixed amount of computational resources is a measure of how difficult it is to recover a cipher's key.
The End key among other keys. The End key is a key commonly found on desktop and laptop keyboards.The key has the opposite effect of the Home key.In some limited-size keyboards where the End key is missing the same functionality can be reached via the key combination of Fn+→ or Control + End keys
