6. The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) |
hole
n.
A region in an otherwise flat entity which is not actually present. For
example, some Unix filesystems can store large files with holes so that
unused regions of the file are never actually stored on disk. (In
techspeak, these are referred to as ?sparse? files.) As another example,
the region of memory in IBM PCs reserved for memory-mapped I/O devices
which may not actually be present is called ?the I/O hole?, since
memory-management systems must skip over this area when filling user
requests for memory.

7. The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018) |
hole
1. In the hole model of current flow, the absence
of an electron, e.g. in a semiconductor material. In the
electron model, a hole can be thought of as an incomplete outer
electron shell in a doping substance. Considering holes as
positive charge carriers is a useful abstraction.
2. A security vulnerability, particularly one which
allows an attacker to gain unauthorised access to a system (by
analogy with a hole in a wall).
