  NX bit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If this bit is set to 0, then code can be executed from that page; if set to 1, code cannot be executed from that page, and anything residing there is assumed to be only data.
When Solaris 10 (32 or 64 bit) boots on a processor that supports the NX bit, it automatically enables this protection by default.
It is important because technologies which somehow emulate or supply an NX bit will usually impose a measurable overhead; while using a hardware supplied NX bit will impose no measurable overhead.

XD And now I want to see the Branaugh (sp?) version, as both the Olivier and Mel Gibson ones have their annoying points, mainly the cutting and rearranging in the latter case.

 xd: Extended Dump and Load Utility
xd can read files in any of the formats it writes, recreating binary files, including modifications made by editing the dump with any text editor.
xd is available as C source code compatible with most Unix systems and as a ready-to-run 32-bit Windows executable.
This option allows you to create a dump with xd, edit it as you wish with any text editor, inserting and deleting bytes in the file wherever you like, then create a binary file from the modified dump with the command xd -l -s dumpfile outfile.

 NX_bit
However, Intel's XD bit and AMD's NX bit perform the same function and are therefore identical, except for the name.
W^X supports the NX bit on Alpha, AMD64, HPPA, and Sparc processors (but notably, not the Intel EM64T processor, which does not have the NX feature).
Linus Torvalds has taken an interest in the NX patch, and believes it may be wise to have NX enabled by default; thus, it has been merged in 2.6.8.

 U.S. Patent: 5125080 - Logic support chip for AT-type computer with improved bus architecture - June 23, 1992
First, the XD-bus is 16 bits wide, and therefore can support 16-bit ROM and other 16-bit peripherals without having to multiplex the data onto an 8-bit bus.
The internal control signals include signals for selectively enabling the XD drivers or receivers, for selectively enabling the swapper drivers, and for enabling the LD drivers and receivers.
Chip 100 provides 4 ma drive on each XD line, which is sufficient for the X-bus, but typically not for the I/O channel.

To answer the question, the J means it has the execute disable bit, meant to stop buffer overlfow attacks.
The "no-execute bit" is essentially a configurable option that allows programmers (OS-level, typically) to block the execution of programs that attempt to gain access to the memory for malicious purposes.
Thus, the XD bit in a J-series Pentium 4 is located as a single switch in a register somewhere deep inside the processor.

XD is a form of hardware-enforced buffer overflow protection that can stop certain malware dead in its tracks but it needs an operating system to activate it.
According to Intel spokesperson Bill Kircos, one way to figure out which processors have it and which ones don't is to look for processers with the letter "J" in their name on a recently published processor chart on Intel's Web site.
Well, if Intel announced that it was rolling out the XD feature in support of Microsoft's DEP and advised the industry that it shouldn't be without the feature, it's pretty clear what that would have done to all non-XD inventory that was still in the channel.

The Intel® Pentium® 4 processor 6xx sequence has enabled support for XD Bit, which, when combined with Windows XP SP2 and anti-virus software, can improve protection against malicious “buffer overflow” attacks.
XD Bit provides additional security at the hardware level, by allowing the processor to classify areas in memory by where application code can execute and where it cannot.
When a malicious worm attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor disables code execution, preventing damage or worm propagation.

 NX bit
Generically it is a technology used in CPUs to segregate areas of memory for use by either storage of processor instructions (aka code) or for storage of data.
If this bit is set to 0, then code can be executed from that page, otherwise if it's set to 1, code cannot be executed from that page, anything residing there is assumed to be only data.
All technologies will create overhead due to the extra programming logic that must be created to control the state of the NX bit for various areas of memory; however, evaluation usually handled by the CPU itself when a hardware NX bit exists, and thus produces no overhead.
