Abstract

Providing access control by a first operating system. A method includes receiving at the first operating system, from the second operating system, a request for a bounding reference to a set having at least one resource. A bounding reference for the set is obtained. The bounding reference comprises a reference created from a first operating system resolvable reference to the set. The method further includes providing the obtained bounding reference for the obtained provided bounding reference to the second operating system. A request, including the obtained bounding reference and an identifier identifying the second operating system for the set, is received from the second operating system. The obtained bounding reference and the identifier identifying the second operating system are evaluated. As a result of evaluating the obtained bounding reference and the identifier identifying the second operating system, a resource control action is performed.
