Ingó Molnár, currently employed by Red Hat, is a Hungarian Linux kernel hacker. He is most well-known for his O(1)-scheduler in the 2.6.x kernel series, the in-kernel TUX HTTP / FTP server, as well as his work to enhance thread handling. He also wrote a kernel security feature called "Exec Shield", which prevents most kinds of buffer overflows in the x86 architecture, by disabling the execute permission for most of the memory not occupied by real code.
