It was first publicly released in 2012. After an intense period of language development, version 1.0 was [13]released on August 8. The 1.0 release promises years of language stability; users can be confident that developments in the 1.x series will not break their code. This is the first part of a two-part article introducing the world of Julia. This part will introduce enough of the language syntax and constructs to allow you to begin to write simple programs. The following installment will acquaint you with the additional pieces needed to create real projects, and to make use of Julia's ecosystem.<br/><br/>Goals and history<br/><br/>The Julia project has ambitious goals. It wants the language to perform about as well as Fortran or C when running numerical algorithms, while remaining as pleasant to program in as Python. I believe the project has met these goals and is poised to see increasing adoption by numerical researchers, especially now that an official, stable release is available.<br/><br/>The Julia project maintains a [14]micro-benchmark page that compares its numerical performance against both statically compiled languages (C, Fortran) and dynamically typed languages (R, Python). While it's certainly possible to argue about the relevance and fairness of particular benchmarks, the data overall supports the Julia team's contention that Julia has generally achieved parity with Fortran and C; the benchmark source code is available.<br/><br/>Julia began as research in computer science at MIT; its creators are Alan Edelman, Stefan Karpinski, Jeff Bezanson, and Viral Shah. These four remain active developers of the language. They, along with Keno Fischer, co-founder and CTO of [15]Julia Computing , were kind enough to share their thoughts with us about the language. I'll be drawing on their comments later on; for now, let's get a taste of what Julia code looks like.<br/><br/>Getting started<br/><br/>To explore Julia initially, start up its standard [16]read-eval-print loop (REPL) by typing julia at the terminal, assuming that you have installed it. You will then be able to interact with what will seem to be an interpreted language — but, behind the scenes, those commands are being compiled by a just-in-time (JIT) compiler that uses the [17]LLVM compiler framework . This allows Julia to be interactive, while turning the code into fast, native machine instructions. However, the JIT compiler passes sometimes introduce noticeable delays at the REPL, especially when using a function for the first time.<br/><br/>To run a Julia program non-interactively, execute a command like: $ julia script.jl<br/><br/>Julia has all the usual data structures: numbers of various types (including complex and rational numbers), multidimensional arrays, dictionaries, strings, and characters. Functions are first-class: they can be passed as arguments to other functions, can be members of arrays, and so on.<br/><br/>Julia embraces Unicode. Strings, which are enclosed in double quotes, are arrays of Unicode characters, which are enclosed in single quotes. The " * " operator is used for string and character concatenation. Thus 'a' and 'β' are characters, and 'aβ' is a syntax error. "a" and "β" are strings, as are "aβ", 'a' * 'β', and "a" * "β" — all evaluate to the same string.<br/><br/>Variable and function names can contain non-ASCII characters. This, along with Julia's clever syntax that understands numbers prepended to variables to mean multiplication, goes a long way to allowing the numerical scientist to write code that more closely resembles the compact mathematical notation of the equations that usually lie behind it. julia ε₁ = 0.01<br/><br/>0.01<br/><br/>julia ε₂ = 0.02<br/><br/>0.02<br/><br/>julia 2ε₁ + 3ε₂<br/><br/>0.08<br/><br/>And where does Julia come down on the age-old debate of what do about 1/2 ? In Fortran and Python 2, this will get you 0, since 1 and 2 are integers, and the result is rounded down to the integer 0. This was deemed inconsistent, and confusing to some, so it was changed in Python 3 to return 0.5 — which is what you get in Julia, too.<br/><br/>While we're on the subject of fractions, Julia can handle rational numbers, with a special syntax: 3//5 + 2//3 returns 19//15 , while 3/5 + 2/3 gets you the floating-point answer 1.2666666666666666. Internally, Julia thinks of a rational number in its reduced form, so the expression 6//8 == 3//4 returns true , and numerator(6//8) returns 3 .<br/><br/>Arrays<br/><br/>Arrays are enclosed in square brackets and indexed with an iterator that can contain a step value: julia a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]<br/><br/>6-element Array{Int64,1}:<br/><br/>1<br/><br/>2<br/><br/>3<br/><br/>4<br/><br/>5<br/><br/>6<br/><br/>julia a[1:2:end]<br/><br/>3-element Array{Int64,1}:<br/><br/>1<br/><br/>3<br/><br/>5<br/><br/>As you can see, indexing starts at one, and the useful end index means the obvious thing. When you define a variable in the REPL, Julia replies with the type and value of the assigned data; you can suppress this output by ending your input line with a semicolon.<br/><br/>Since arrays are such a vital part of numerical computation, and Julia makes them easy to work with, we'll spend a bit more time with them than the other data structures.<br/><br/>To illustrate the syntax, we can start with a couple of 2D arrays, defined at the REPL: julia a = [1 2 3; 4 5 6]<br/><br/>2×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>1 2 3<br/><br/>4 5 6<br/><br/>julia z = [-1 -2 -3; -4 -5 -6];<br/><br/>Indexing is as expected: julia a[1, 2]<br/><br/>2<br/><br/>You can glue arrays together horizontally: julia [a z]<br/><br/>2×6 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>1 2 3 -1 -2 -3<br/><br/>4 5 6 -4 -5 -6<br/><br/>And vertically: julia [a; z]<br/><br/>4×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>1 2 3<br/><br/>4 5 6<br/><br/>-1 -2 -3<br/><br/>-4 -5 -6<br/><br/>Julia has all the usual operators for handling arrays, and [18]linear algebra functions that work with matrices (2D arrays). The linear algebra functions are part of Julia's standard library, but need to be imported with a command like " using LinearAlgebra ", which is a detail omitted from the current documentation. The functions include such things as determinants, matrix inverses, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, many kinds of matrix factorizations, etc. Julia has not reinvented the wheel here, but wisely uses the [19]LAPACK Fortran library of battle-tested linear algebra routines.<br/><br/>The extension of arithmetic operators to arrays is usually intuitive: julia a + z<br/><br/>2×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>0 0 0<br/><br/>0 0 0<br/><br/>And the numerical prepending syntax works with arrays, too: julia 3a + 4z<br/><br/>2×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>-1 -2 -3<br/><br/>-4 -5 -6<br/><br/>Putting a multiplication operator between two matrices gets you matrix multiplication: julia a * transpose(a)<br/><br/>2×2 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>14 32<br/><br/>32 77<br/><br/>You can "broadcast" numbers to cover all the elements in an array by prepending the usual arithmetic operators with a dot: julia 1 .+ a<br/><br/>2×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>2 3 4<br/><br/>5 6 7<br/><br/>Note that the language only actually requires the dot for some operators, but not for others, such as "*" and "/". The reasons for this are arcane, and it probably makes sense to be consistent and use the dot whenever you intend broadcasting. Note also that the current version of the official documentation is incorrect in claiming that you may omit the dot from "+" and "-"; in fact, this now gives an error.<br/><br/>You can use the dot notation to turn any function into one that operates on each element of an array: julia round.(sin.([0, π/2, π, 3π/2, 2π]))<br/><br/>5-element Array{Float64,1}:<br/><br/>0.0<br/><br/>1.0<br/><br/>0.0<br/><br/>-1.0<br/><br/>-0.0<br/><br/>The example above illustrates chaining two dotted functions together. The Julia compiler turns expressions like this into "fused" operations: instead of applying each function in turn to create a new array that is passed to the next function, the compiler combines the functions into a single compound function that is applied once over the array, creating a significant optimization.<br/><br/>You can use this dot notation with any function, including your own, to turn it into a version that operates element-wise over arrays.<br/><br/>Dictionaries (associative arrays) can be defined with several syntaxes. Here's one: julia d1 = Dict("A"=1, "B"=2)<br/><br/>Dict{String,Int64} with 2 entries:<br/><br/>"B" = 2<br/><br/>"A" = 1<br/><br/>You may have noticed that the code snippets so far have not included any type declarations. Every value in Julia has a type, but the compiler will infer types if they are not specified. It is generally not necessary to declare types for performance, but type declarations sometimes serve other purposes, that we'll return to later. Julia has a deep and sophisticated type system, including user-defined types and C-like structs. Types can have behaviors associated with them, and can inherit behaviors from other types. The best thing about Julia's type system is that you can ignore it entirely, use just a few pieces of it, or spend weeks studying its design.<br/><br/>Control flow<br/><br/>Julia code is organized in blocks, which can indicate control flow, function definitions, and other code units. Blocks are terminated with the end keyword, and indentation is not significant. Statements are separated either with newlines or semicolons.<br/><br/>Julia has the typical control flow constructs; here is a while block: julia i = 1;<br/><br/>julia while i 5<br/><br/>print(i)<br/><br/>global i = i + 1<br/><br/>end<br/><br/>1234<br/><br/>Notice the global keyword. Most blocks in Julia introduce a local scope for variables; without this keyword here, we would get an error about an undefined variable.<br/><br/>Julia has the usual if statements and for loops that use the same iterators that we introduced above for array indexing. We can also iterate over collections: julia for i ∈ ['a', 'b', 'c']<br/><br/>println(i)<br/><br/>end<br/><br/>a<br/><br/>b<br/><br/>c<br/><br/>In place of the fancy math symbol in this for loop, we can use " = " or " in ". If you want to use the math symbol but have no convenient way to type it, the REPL will help you: type " \in " and the TAB key, and the symbol appears; you can type many [20]LaTeX expressions into the REPL in this way.<br/><br/>Development of Julia<br/><br/>The language is developed on GitHub, with over 700 contributors. The Julia team mentioned in their email to us that the decision to use GitHub has been particularly good for Julia, as it streamlined the process for many of their contributors, who are scientists or domain experts in various fields, rather than professional software developers.<br/><br/>The creators of Julia have [21]published [PDF] a detailed “mission statement” for the language, describing their aims and motivations. A key issue that they wanted their language to solve is what they called the "two-language problem." This situation is familiar to anyone who has used Python or another dynamic language on a demanding numerical problem. To get good performance, you will wind up rewriting the numerically intensive parts of the program in C or Fortran, dealing with the interface between the two languages, and may still be disappointed in the overhead presented by calling the foreign routines from your original code.<br/><br/>For Python, [22]NumPy and SciPy wrap many numerical routines, written in Fortran or C, for efficient use from that language, but you can only take advantage of this if your calculation fits the pattern of an available routine; in more general cases, where you will have to write a loop over your data, you are stuck with Python's native performance, which is orders of magnitude slower. If you switch to an alternative, faster implementation of Python, such as [23]PyPy , the numerical libraries may not be compatible; NumPy became available for PyPy only within about the past year.<br/><br/>Julia solves the two-language problem by being as expressive and simple to program in as a dynamic scripting language, while having the native performance of a static, compiled language. There is no need to write numerical libraries in a second language, but C or Fortran library routines can be called using a facility that Julia has built-in. Other languages, such as [24]Python or [25]R , can also interoperate easily with Julia using external packages.<br/><br/>Documentation<br/><br/>There are many resources to turn to to learn the language. There is an extensive and detailed [26]manual at Julia headquarters, and this may be a good place to start. However, although the first few chapters provide a gentle introduction, the material soon becomes dense and, at times, hard to follow, with references to concepts that are not explained until later chapters. Fortunately, there is a [27]"learning" link at the top of the Julia home page, which takes you to a long list of videos, tutorials, books, articles, and classes both about Julia and that use Julia in teaching subjects such a numerical analysis. There is also a fairly good [28]cheat-sheet [PDF] , which was just updated for v. 1.0.<br/><br/>If you're coming from Python, [29]this list of noteworthy differences between Python and Julia syntax will probably be useful.<br/><br/>Some of the linked tutorials are in the form of [30]Jupyter notebooks — indeed, the name "Jupyter" is formed from "Julia", "Python", and "R", which are the three original languages supported by the interface. The [31]Julia kernel for Jupyter was recently upgraded to support v. 1.0. Judicious sampling of a variety of documentation sources, combined with liberal experimentation, may be the best way of learning the language. Jupyter makes this experimentation more inviting for those who enjoy the web-based interface, but the REPL that comes with Julia helps a great deal in this regard by providing, for instance, TAB completion and an extensive help system invoked by simply pressing the "?" key.<br/><br/>Stay tuned<br/><br/>The [32]next installment in this two-part series will explain how Julia is organized around the concept of "multiple dispatch". You will learn how to create functions and make elementary use of Julia's type system. We'll see how to install packages and use modules, and how to make graphs. Finally, Part 2 will briefly survey the important topics of macros and distributed computing.<br/><br/>[33]Comments (80 posted)<br/><br/>[34]C considered dangerous<br/><br/>By Jake Edge<br/><br/>August 29, 2018<br/><br/>[35]LSS NA<br/><br/>At the North America edition of the [36]2018 Linux Security Summit (LSS NA), which was held in late August in Vancouver, Canada, Kees Cook gave a presentation on some of the dangers that come with programs written in C. In particular, of course, the Linux kernel is mostly written in C, which means that the security of our systems rests on a somewhat dangerous foundation. But there are things that can be done to help firm things up by " Making C Less Dangerous " as the title of his talk suggested.<br/><br/>He began with a brief summary of the work that he and others are doing as part of the [37]Kernel Self Protection Project (KSPP). The goal of the project is to get kernel protections merged into the mainline. These protections are not targeted at protecting user-space processes from other (possibly rogue) processes, but are, instead, focused on protecting the kernel from user-space code. There are around 12 organizations and ten individuals working on roughly 20 different technologies as part of the KSPP, he said. The progress has been "slow and steady", he said, which is how he thinks it should go. [38]<br/><br/>One of the main problems is that C is treated mostly like a fancy assembler. The kernel developers do this because they want the kernel to be as fast and as small as possible. There are other reasons, too, such as the need to do architecture-specific tasks that lack a C API (e.g. setting up page tables, switching to 64-bit mode).<br/><br/>But there is lots of undefined behavior in C. This "operational baggage" can lead to various problems. In addition, C has a weak standard library with multiple utility functions that have various pitfalls. In C, the content of uninitialized automatic variables is undefined, but in the machine code that it gets translated to, the value is whatever happened to be in that memory location before. In C, a function pointer can be called even if the type of the pointer does not match the type of the function being called—assembly doesn't care, it just jumps to a location, he said.<br/><br/>The APIs in the standard library are also bad in many cases. He asked: why is there no argument to memcpy() to specify the maximum destination length? He noted a recent [39]blog post from Raph Levien entitled "With Undefined Behavior, Anything is Possible". That obviously resonated with Cook, as he pointed out his T-shirt—with the title and artwork from the post.<br/><br/>Less danger<br/><br/>He then moved on to some things that kernel developers can do (and are doing) to get away from some of the dangers of C. He began with variable-length arrays (VLAs), which can be used to overflow the stack to access data outside of its region. Even if the stack has a guard page, VLAs can be used to jump past it to write into other memory, which can then be used by some other kind of attack. The C language is "perfectly fine with this". It is easy to find uses of VLAs with the -Wvla flag, however.<br/><br/>But it turns out that VLAs are [40]not just bad from a security perspective , they are also slow. In a micro-benchmark associated with a [41]patch removing a VLA , a 13% performance boost came from using a fixed-size array. He dug in a bit further and found that much more code is being generated to handle a VLA, which explains the speed increase. Since Linus Torvalds has [42]declared that VLAs should be removed from the kernel because they cause security problems and also slow the kernel down; Cook said "don't use VLAs".<br/><br/>Another problem area is switch statements, in particular where there is no break for a case . That could mean that the programmer expects and wants to fall through to the next case or it could be that the break was simply forgotten. There is a way to get a warning from the compiler for fall-throughs, but there needs to be a way to mark those that are truly meant to be that way. A special fall-through "statement" in the form of a comment is what has been agreed on within the static-analysis community. He and others have been going through each of the places where there is no break to add these comments (or a break ); they have "found a lot of bugs this way", he said.<br/><br/>Uninitialized local variables will generate a warning, but not if the variable is passed in by reference. There are some GCC plugins that will automatically initialize these variables, but there are also patches for both GCC and Clang to provide a compiler option to do so. Neither of those is upstream yet, but Torvalds has praised the effort so the kernel would likely use the option. An interesting side effect that came about while investigating this was a warning he got about unreachable code when he enabled the auto-initialization. There were two variables declared just after a switch (and outside of any case ), where they would never be reached.<br/><br/>Arithmetic overflow is another undefined behavior in C that can cause various problems. GCC can check for signed overflow, which performs well (the overhead is in the noise, he said), but adding warning messages for it does grow the kernel by 6%; making the overflow abort, instead, only adds 0.1%. Clang can check for both signed and unsigned overflow; signed overflow is undefined, while unsigned overflow is defined, but often unexpected. Marking places where unsigned overflow is expected is needed; it would be nice to get those annotations put into the kernel, Cook said.<br/><br/>Explicit bounds checking is expensive. Doing it for copy_{to,from}_user() is a less than 1% performance hit, but adding it to the strcpy() and memcpy() families are around a 2% hit. Pre-Meltdown that would have been a totally impossible performance regression for security, he said; post-Meltdown, since it is less than 5%, maybe there is a chance to add this checking.<br/><br/>Better APIs would help as well. He pointed to the evolution of strcpy() , through str n cpy() and str l cpy() (each with their own bounds flaws) to str s cpy() , which seems to be "OK so far". He also mentioned memcpy() again as a poor API with respect to bounds checking.<br/><br/>Hardware support for bounds checking is available in the application data integrity (ADI) feature for SPARC and is coming for Arm; it may also be available for Intel processors at some point. These all use a form of "memory tagging", where allocations get a tag that is stored in the high-order byte of the address. An offset from the address can be checked by the hardware to see if it still falls within the allocated region based on the tag.<br/><br/>Control-flow integrity (CFI) has become more of an issue lately because much of what attackers had used in the past has been marked as "no execute" so they are turning to using existing code "gadgets" already present in the kernel by hijacking existing indirect function calls. In C, you can just call pointers without regard to the type as it just treats them as an address to jump to. Clang has a CFI-sanitize feature that enforces the function prototype to restrict the calls that can be made. It is done at runtime and is not perfect, in part because there are lots of functions in the kernel that take one unsigned long parameter and return an unsigned long.<br/><br/>Attacks on CFI have both a "forward edge", which is what CFI sanitize tries to handle, and a "backward edge" that comes from manipulating the stack values, the return address in particular. Clang has two methods available to prevent the stack manipulation. The first is the "safe stack", which puts various important items (e.g. "safe" variables, register spills, and the return address) on a separate stack. Alternatively, the "shadow stack" feature creates a separate stack just for return addresses.<br/><br/>One problem with these other stacks is that they are still writable, so if an attacker can find them in memory, they can still perform their attacks. Hardware-based protections, like Intel's Control-Flow Enforcement Technology (CET), [43]provides a read-only shadow call stack for return addresses. Another hardware protection is [44]pointer authentication for Arm, which adds a kind of encrypted tag to the return address that can be verified before it is used.<br/><br/>Status and challenges<br/><br/>Cook then went through the current status of handling these different problems in the kernel. VLAs are almost completely gone, he said, just a few remain in the crypto subsystem; he hopes those VLAs will be gone by 4.20 (or whatever the number of the next kernel release turns out to be). Once that happens, he plans to turn on -Wvla for the kernel build so that none creep back in.<br/><br/>There has been steady progress made on marking fall-through cases in switch statements. Only 745 remain to be handled of the 2311 that existed when this work started; each one requires scrutiny to determine what the author's intent is. Auto-initialized local variables can be done using compiler plugins, but that is "not quite what we want", he said. More compiler support would be helpful there. For arithmetic overflow, it would be nice to see GCC get support for the unsigned case, but memory allocations are now doing explicit overflow checking at this point.<br/><br/>Bounds checking has seen some "crying about performance hits", so we are waiting impatiently for hardware support, he said. CFI forward-edge protection needs [45]link-time optimization (LTO) support for Clang in the kernel, but it is currently working on Android. For backward-edge mitigation, the Clang shadow call stack is working on Android, but we are impatiently waiting for hardware support for that too.<br/><br/>There are a number of challenges in doing security development for the kernel, Cook said. There are cultural boundaries due to conservatism within the kernel community; that requires patiently working and reworking features in order to get them upstream. There are, of course, technical challenges because of the complexity of security changes; those kinds of problems can be solved. There are also resource limitations in terms of developers, testers, reviewers, and so on. KSPP and the other kernel security developers are still making that "slow but steady" progress.<br/><br/>Cook's [46]slides [PDF] are available for interested readers; before long, there should be a video available of the talk as well.<br/><br/>[I would like to thank LWN's travel sponsor, the Linux Foundation, for travel assistance to attend the Linux Security Summit in Vancouver.]<br/><br/>[47]Comments (70 posted)<br/><br/>[48]The second half of the 4.19 merge window<br/><br/>By Jonathan Corbet<br/><br/>August 26, 2018 By the time Linus Torvalds [49]released 4.19-rc1 and closed the merge window for this development cycle, 12,317 non-merge changesets had found their way into the mainline; about 4,800 of those landed after [50]last week's summary was written.

The ensuing discussion made it clear that there is still not a consensus in this area, though, so it seems that this work has to wait for another cycle.<br/><br/>Assuming all goes well, the kernel will stabilize over the coming weeks and the final 4.19 release will happen in mid-October.<br/><br/>[60]Comments (1 posted)<br/><br/>[61]Measuring (and fixing) I/O-controller throughput loss<br/><br/>August 29, 2018<br/><br/>This article was contributed by Paolo Valente<br/><br/>Many services, from web hosting and video streaming to cloud storage, need to move data to and from storage. They also often require that each per-client I/O flow be guaranteed a non-zero amount of bandwidth and a bounded latency. An expensive way to provide these guarantees is to over-provision storage resources, keeping each resource underutilized, and thus have plenty of bandwidth available for the few I/O flows dispatched to each medium. Alternatively one can use an I/O controller. Linux provides two mechanisms designed to throttle some I/O streams to allow others to meet their bandwidth and latency requirements. These mechanisms work, but they come at a cost: a loss of as much as 80% of total available I/O bandwidth. I have run some tests to demonstrate this problem; some upcoming improvements to the [62]bfq I/O scheduler promise to improve the situation considerably.<br/><br/>Throttling does guarantee control, even on drives that happen to be highly utilized but, as will be seen, it has a hard time actually ensuring that drives are highly utilized. Even with greedy I/O flows, throttling easily ends up utilizing as little as 20% of the available speed of a flash-based drive. Such a speed loss may be particularly problematic with lower-end storage. On the opposite end, it is also disappointing with high-end hardware, as the Linux block I/O stack itself has been [63]redesigned from the ground up to fully utilize the high speed of modern, fast storage. In addition, throttling fails to guarantee the expected bandwidths if I/O contains both reads and writes, or is sporadic in nature.<br/><br/>On the bright side, there now seems to be an effective alternative for controlling I/O: the proportional-share policy provided by the bfq I/O scheduler. It enables nearly 100% storage bandwidth utilization, at least with some of the workloads that are problematic for throttling. An upcoming version of bfq may be able to achieve this result with almost all workloads. Finally, bfq guarantees bandwidths with all workloads. The current limitation of bfq is that its execution overhead becomes significant at speeds above 400,000 I/O operations per second on commodity CPUs.<br/><br/>Using the bfq I/O scheduler, Linux can now guarantee low latency to lightweight flows containing sporadic, short I/O. No throughput issues arise, and no configuration is required. This capability benefits important, time-sensitive tasks, such as video or audio streaming, as well as executing commands or starting applications. Although benchmarks are not available yet, these guarantees might also be provided by the newly proposed [64]I/O latency controller . It allows administrators to set target latencies for I/O requests originating from each group of processes, and favors the groups with the lowest target latency.<br/><br/>The testbed<br/><br/>I ran the tests with an ext4 filesystem mounted on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5S SSD, which features a peak rate of ~160MB/s with random I/O, and of ~500MB/s with sequential I/O. I used blk-mq, in Linux 4.18. The system was equipped with a 2.4GHz Intel Core i7-2760QM CPU and 1.3GHz DDR3 DRAM. In such a system, a single thread doing synchronous reads reaches a throughput of 23MB/s.<br/><br/>For the purposes of these tests, each process is considered to be in one of two groups, termed "target" and "interferers". A target is a single-process, I/O-bound group whose I/O is focused on. In particular, I measure the I/O throughput enjoyed by this group to get the minimum bandwidth delivered to the group. An interferer is single-process group whose role is to generate additional I/O that interferes with the I/O of the target. The tested workloads contain one target and multiple interferers.<br/><br/>The single process in each group either reads or writes, through asynchronous (buffered) operations, to one file — different from the file read or written by any other process — after invalidating the buffer cache for the file. I define a reader or writer process as either "random" or "sequential", depending on whether it reads or writes its file at random positions or sequentially. Finally, an interferer is defined as being either "active" or "inactive" depending on whether it performs I/O during the test. When an interferer is mentioned, it is assumed that the interferer is active.<br/><br/>Workloads are defined so as to try to cover the combinations that, I believe, most influence the performance of the storage device and of the I/O policies. For brevity, in this article I show results for only two groups of workloads:<br/><br/>Static sequential : four synchronous sequential readers or four asynchronous sequential writers, plus five inactive interferers.<br/><br/>Static random : four synchronous random readers, all with a block size equal to 4k, plus five inactive interferers.<br/><br/>To create each workload, I considered, for each mix of interferers in the group, two possibilities for the target: it could be either a random or a sequential synchronous reader. In [65]a longer version of this article [PDF] , you will also find results for workloads with varying degrees of I/O randomness, and for dynamic workloads (containing sporadic I/O sources). These extra results confirm the losses of throughput and I/O control for throttling that are shown here.<br/><br/>I/O policies<br/><br/>Linux provides two I/O-control mechanisms for guaranteeing (a minimum) bandwidth, or at least fairness, to long-lived flows: the throttling and proportional-share I/O policies. With throttling, one can set a maximum bandwidth limit — "max limit" for brevity — for the I/O of each group. Max limits can be used, in an indirect way, to provide the service guarantee at the focus of this article. For example, to guarantee minimum bandwidths to I/O flows, a group can be guaranteed a minimum bandwidth by limiting the maximum bandwidth of all the other groups.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, max limits have two drawbacks in terms of throughput. First, if some groups do not use their allocated bandwidth, that bandwidth cannot be reclaimed by other active groups. Second, limits must comply with the worst-case speed of the device, namely, its random-I/O peak rate. Such limits will clearly leave a lot of throughput unused with workloads that otherwise would drive the device to higher throughput levels. Maximizing throughput is simply not a goal of max limits. So, for brevity, test results with max limits are not shown here. You can find these results, plus a more detailed description of the above drawbacks, in the long version of this article.<br/><br/>Because of these drawbacks, a new, still experimental, low limit has been added to the throttling policy. If a group is assigned a low limit, then the throttling policy automatically limits the I/O of the other groups in such a way to guarantee to the group a minimum bandwidth equal to its assigned low limit. This new throttling mechanism throttles no group as long as every group is getting at least its assigned minimum bandwidth. I tested this mechanism, but did not consider the interesting problem of guaranteeing minimum bandwidths while, at the same time, enforcing maximum bandwidths.<br/><br/>The other I/O policy available in Linux, proportional share, provides weighted fairness. Each group is assigned a weight, and should receive a portion of the total throughput proportional to its weight. This scheme guarantees minimum bandwidths in the same way that low limits do in throttling. In particular, it guarantees to each group a minimum bandwidth equal to the ratio between the weight of the group, and the sum of the weights of all the groups that may be active at the same time.<br/><br/>The actual implementation of the proportional-share policy, on a given drive, depends on what flavor of the block layer is in use for that drive. If the drive is using the legacy block interface, the policy is implemented by the cfq I/O scheduler. Unfortunately, cfq fails to control bandwidths with flash-based storage, especially on drives featuring command queueing. This case is not considered in these tests. With drives using the multiqueue interface, proportional share is implemented by bfq. This is the combination considered in the tests.<br/><br/>To benchmark both throttling (low limits) and proportional share, I tested, for each workload, the combinations of I/O policies and I/O schedulers reported in the table below. In the end, there are three test cases for each workload. In addition, for some workloads, I considered two versions of bfq for the proportional-share policy.<br/><br/>Name<br/><br/>I/O policy<br/><br/>Scheduler<br/><br/>Parameter for target<br/><br/>Parameter for each of the four active interferers<br/><br/>Parameter for each of the five inactive interferers<br/><br/>Sum of parameters<br/><br/>low-none<br/><br/>Throttling with low limits<br/><br/>none<br/><br/>10MB/s<br/><br/>10MB/s (tot: 40)<br/><br/>20MB/s (tot: 100)<br/><br/>150MB/s<br/><br/>prop-bfq<br/><br/>Proportional share<br/><br/>bfq<br/><br/>300<br/><br/>100 (tot: 400)<br/><br/>200 (tot: 1000)<br/><br/>1700<br/><br/>For low limits, I report results with only none as the I/O scheduler, because the results are the same with kyber and mq-deadline.<br/><br/>The capabilities of the storage medium and of low limits drove the policy configurations. In particular:<br/><br/>The configuration of the target and of the active interferers for low-none is the one for which low-none provides its best possible minimum-bandwidth guarantee to the target: 10MB/s, guaranteed if all interferers are readers. Results remain the same regardless of the values used for target latency and idle time; I set them to 100µs and 1000µs, respectively, for every group.<br/><br/>Low limits for inactive interferers are set to twice the limits for active interferers, to pose greater difficulties to the policy.<br/><br/>I chose weights for prop-bfq so as to guarantee about the same minimum bandwidth as low-none to the target, in the same only-reader worst case as for low-none and to preserve, between the weights of active and inactive interferers, the same ratio as between the low limits of active and inactive interferers.<br/><br/>Full details on configurations can be found in the long version of this article.<br/><br/>Each workload was run ten times for each policy, plus ten times without any I/O control, i.e., with none as I/O scheduler and no I/O policy in use. For each run, I measured the I/O throughput of the target (which reveals the bandwidth provided to the target), the cumulative I/O throughput of the interferers, and the total I/O throughput. These quantities fluctuated very little during each run, as well as across different runs. Thus in the graphs I report only averages over per-run average throughputs. In particular, for the case of no I/O control, I report only the total I/O throughput, to give an idea of the throughput that can be reached without imposing any control.<br/><br/>Results<br/><br/>This plot shows throughput results for the simplest group of workloads: the static-sequential set.<br/><br/>With a random reader as the target against sequential readers as interferers, low-none does guarantee the configured low limit to the target. Yet it reaches only a low total throughput. The throughput of the random reader evidently oscillates around 10MB/s during the test. This implies that it is at least slightly below 10MB/s for a significant percentage of the time. But when this happens, the low-limit mechanism limits the maximum bandwidth of every active group to the low limit set for the group, i.e., to just 10MB/s. The end result is a total throughput lower than 10% of the throughput reached without I/O control.<br/><br/>That said, the high throughput achieved without I/O control is obtained by choking the random I/O of the target in favor of the sequential I/O of the interferers. Thus, it is probably more interesting to compare low-none throughput with the throughput reachable while actually guaranteeing 10MB/s to the target. The target is a single, synchronous, random reader, which reaches 23MB/s while active. So, to guarantee 10MB/s to the target, it is enough to serve it for about half of the time, and the interferers for the other half. Since the device reaches ~500MB/s with the sequential I/O of the interferers, the resulting throughput with this service scheme would be (500+23)/2, or about 260MB/s. low-none thus reaches less than 20% of the total throughput that could be reached while still preserving the target bandwidth.<br/><br/>prop-bfq provides the target with a slightly higher throughput than low-none. This makes it harder for prop-bfq to reach a high total throughput, because prop-bfq serves more random I/O (from the target) than low-none. Nevertheless, prop-bfq gets a much higher total throughput than low-none. According to the above estimate, this throughput is about 90% of the maximum throughput that could be reached, for this workload, without violating service guarantees. The reason for this good result is that bfq provides an effective implementation of the proportional-share service policy. At any time, each active group is granted a fraction of the current total throughput, and the sum of these fractions is equal to one; so group bandwidths naturally saturate the available total throughput at all times.<br/><br/>Things change with the second workload: a random reader against sequential writers. Now low-none reaches a much higher total throughput than prop-bfq. low-none serves much more sequential (write) I/O than prop-bfq because writes somehow break the low-limit mechanisms and prevail over the reads of the target. Conceivably, this happens because writes tend to both starve reads in the OS (mainly by eating all available I/O tags) and to cheat on their completion time in the drive. In contrast, bfq is intentionally configured to privilege reads, to counter these issues.<br/><br/>In particular, low-none gets an even higher throughput than no I/O control at all because it penalizes the random I/O of the target even more than the no-controller configuration.<br/><br/>Finally, with the last two workloads, prop-bfq reaches even higher total throughput than with the first two. It happens because the target also does sequential I/O, and serving sequential I/O is much more beneficial for throughput than serving random I/O. With these two workloads, the total throughput is, respectively, close to or much higher than that reached without I/O control. For the last workload, the total throughput is much higher because, differently from none, bfq privileges reads over asynchronous writes, and reads yield a higher throughput than writes. In contrast, low-none still gets lower or much lower throughput than prop-bfq, because of the same issues that hinder low-none throughput with the first two workloads.<br/><br/>As for bandwidth guarantees, with readers as interferers (third workload), prop-bfq, as expected, gives the target a fraction of the total throughput proportional to its weight. bfq approximates perfect proportional-share bandwidth distribution among groups doing I/O of the same type (reads or writes) and with the same locality (sequential or random). With the last workload, prop-bfq gives much more throughput to the reader than to all the interferers, because interferers are asynchronous writers, and bfq privileges reads.<br/><br/>The second group of workloads (static random), is the one, among all the workloads considered, for which prop-bfq performs worst. Results are shown below:<br/><br/>This chart reports results not only for mainline bfq, but also for an improved version of bfq which is currently under public testing. As can be seen, with only random readers, prop-bfq reaches a much lower total throughput than low-none. This happens because of the Achilles heel of the bfq I/O scheduler. If the process in service does synchronous I/O and has a higher weight than some other process, then, to give strong bandwidth guarantees to that process, bfq plugs I/O dispatching every time the process temporarily stops issuing I/O requests. In this respect, processes actually have differentiated weights and do synchronous I/O in the workloads tested. So bfq systematically performs I/O plugging for them. Unfortunately, this plugging empties the internal queues of the drive, which kills throughput with random I/O. And the I/O of all processes in these workloads is also random.<br/><br/>The situation reverses with a sequential reader as target. Yet, the most interesting results come from the new version of bfq, containing small changes to counter exactly the above weakness. This version recovers most of the throughput loss with the workload made of only random I/O and more; with the second workload, where the target is a sequential reader, it reaches about 3.7 times the total throughput of low-none.<br/><br/>When the main concern is the latency of flows containing short I/O, Linux seems now rather high performing, thanks to the bfq I/O scheduler and the I/O latency controller. But if the requirement is to provide explicit bandwidth guarantees (or just fairness) to I/O flows, then one must be ready to give up much or most of the speed of the storage media. bfq helps with some workloads, but loses most of the throughput with workloads consisting of mostly random I/O. Fortunately, there is apparently hope for much better performance since an improvement, still under development, seems to enable bfq to reach a high throughput with all workloads tested so far.<br/><br/><h2>I wish to thank Vivek Goyal for enabling me to make this article much more fair and sound.]<br/><br/>[66]Comments (4 posted)<br/><br/>[67]KDE's onboarding initiative, one year later<br/><br/>August 24, 2018<br/><br/>This article was contributed by Marta Rybczyńska<br/><br/>[68]Akademy<br/><br/>In 2017, the KDE community decided on [69]three goals to concentrate on for the next few years. One of them was [70]streamlining the onboarding of new contributors (the others were [71]improving usability and [72]privacy ). During [73]Akademy , the yearly KDE conference that was held in Vienna in August, Neofytos Kolokotronis shared the status of the onboarding goal, the work done during the last year, and further plans. While it is a complicated process in a project as big and diverse as KDE, numerous improvements have been already made.<br/><br/>Two of the three KDE community goals were proposed by relative newcomers. Kolokotronis was one of those, having joined the [74]KDE Promo team not long before proposing the focus on onboarding. He had previously been involved with [75]Chakra Linux , a distribution based on KDE software. The fact that new members of the community proposed strategic goals was also noted in the [76]Sunday keynote by Claudia Garad .<br/><br/>Proper onboarding adds excitement to the contribution process and increases retention, he explained. When we look at [77]the definition of onboarding , it is a process in which the new contributors acquire knowledge, skills, and behaviors so that they can contribute effectively. Kolokotronis proposed to see it also as socialization: integration into the project's relationships, culture, structure, and procedures.<br/><br/>The gains from proper onboarding are many. The project can grow by attracting new blood with new perspectives and solutions. The community maintains its health and stays vibrant. Another important advantage of efficient onboarding is that replacing current contributors becomes easier when they change interests, jobs, or leave the project for whatever reason. Finally, successful onboarding adds new advocates to the project.<br/><br/>Achievements so far and future plans<br/><br/>The team started with ideas for a centralized onboarding process for the whole of KDE. They found out quickly that this would not work because KDE is "very decentralized", so it is hard to provide tools and procedures that are going to work for the whole project. According to Kolokotronis, other characteristics of KDE that impact onboarding are high diversity, remote and online teams, and hundreds of contributors in dozens of projects and teams. In addition, new contributors already know in which area they want to take part and they prefer specific information that will be directly useful for them.<br/><br/>So the team changed its approach; several changes have since been proposed and implemented. The [78]Get Involved page, which is expected to be one of the resources new contributors read first, has been rewritten. For the [79]Junior Jobs page , the team is [80] [81]discussing what the generic content for KDE as a whole should be. The team simplified [82]Phabricator registration , which resulted in documenting the process better. Another part of the work includes the [83]KDE Bugzilla ; it includes, for example initiatives to limit the number of states of a ticket or remove obsolete products.<br/><br/>The [84]Plasma Mobile team is heavily involved in the onboarding goal. The Plasma Mobile developers have simplified their development environment setup and created an [85]interactive "Get Involved" page. In addition, the Plasma team changed the way task descriptions are written; they now contain more detail, so that it is easier to get involved. The basic description should be short and clear, and it should include details of the problem and possible solutions. The developers try to share the list of skills necessary to fulfill the tasks and include clear links to the technical resources needed.<br/><br/>Kolokotronis and team also identified a new potential source of contributors for KDE: distributions using KDE. They have the advantage of already knowing and using the software. The next idea the team is working on is to make sure that setting up a development environment is easy. The team plans to work on this during a dedicated sprint this autumn.<br/><br/>Searching for new contributors<br/><br/>Kolokotronis plans to search for new contributors at the periphery of the project, among the "skilled enthusiasts": loyal users who actually care about the project. They "can make wonders", he said. Those individuals may be also less confident or shy, have troubles making the first step, and need guidance. The project leaders should take that into account.<br/><br/>In addition, newcomers are all different. Kolokotronis provided a long list of how contributors differ, including skills and knowledge, motives and interests, and time and dedication. His advice is to "try to find their superpower", the skills they have that are missing in the team. Those "superpowers" can then be used for the benefit of the project.<br/><br/>If a project does nothing else, he said, it can start with its documentation. However, this does not only mean code documentation. Writing down the procedures or information about the internal work of the project, like who is working on what, is an important part of a project's documentation and helps newcomers. There should be also guidelines on how to start, especially setting up the development environment.<br/><br/>The first thing the project leaders should do, according to Kolokotronis, is to spend time on introducing newcomers to the project. Ideally every new contributor should be assigned mentors — more experienced members who can help them when needed. The mentors and project leaders should find tasks that are interesting for each person. Answering an audience question on suggestions for shy new contributors, he recommended even more mentoring. It is also very helpful to make sure that newcomers have enough to read, but "avoid RTFM", he highlighted. It is also easy for a new contributor "to fly away", he said. The solution is to keep requesting things and be proactive.<br/><br/>What the project can do?<br/><br/>Kolokotronis suggested a number of actions for a project when it wants to improve its onboarding. The first step is preparation: the project leaders should know the team's and the project's needs. Long-term planning is important, too. It is not enough to wait for contributors to come — the project should be proactive, which means reaching out to candidates, suggesting appropriate tasks and, finally, making people available for the newcomers if they need help.<br/><br/>This leads to next step: to be a mentor. Kolokotronis suggests being a "great host", but also trying to phase out the dependency on the mentor rapidly. "We have been all newcomers", he said. It can be intimidating to join an existing group. Onboarding creates a sense of belonging which, in turn, increases retention.<br/><br/>The last step proposed was to be strategic. This includes thinking about the emotions you want newcomers to feel. Kolokotronis explained the strategic part with an example. The overall goal is (surprise!) improve onboarding of new contributors. An intermediate objective might be to keep the newcomers after they have made their first commit. If your strategy is to keep them confident and proud, you can use different tactics like praise and acknowledgment of the work in public. Another useful tactic may be assigning simple tasks, according to the skill of the contributor.<br/><br/>To summarize, the most important thing, according to Kolokotronis, is to respond quickly and spend time with new contributors. This time should be used to explain procedures, and to introduce the people and culture. It is also essential to guide first contributions and praise contributor's skill and effort. Increase the difficulty of tasks over time to keep contributors motivated and challenged. And finally, he said, "turn them into mentors".<br/><br/>Kolokotronis acknowledges that onboarding "takes time" and "everyone complains" about it. However, he is convinced that it is beneficial in the long term and that it decreases developer turnover.<br/><br/>Advice to newcomers<br/><br/>Kolokotronis concluded with some suggestions for newcomers to a project. They should try to be persistent and to not get discouraged when something goes wrong. Building connections from the very beginning is helpful. He suggests asking questions as if you were already a member "and things will be fine". However, accept criticism if it happens.<br/><br/>One of the next actions of the onboarding team will be to collect feedback from newcomers and experienced contributors to see if they agree on the ideas and processes introduced so far.<br/><br/>[86]Comments (none posted)<br/><br/>[87]Sharing and archiving data sets with Dat<br/><br/>August 27, 2018<br/><br/>This article was contributed by Antoine Beaupré<br/><br/>[88]Dat is a new peer-to-peer protocol that uses some of the concepts of [89]BitTorrent and Git. Dat primarily targets researchers and open-data activists as it is a great tool for sharing, archiving, and cataloging large data sets. But it can also be used to implement decentralized web applications in a novel way.<br/><br/>Dat quick primer<br/><br/>Dat is written in JavaScript, so it can be installed with npm , but there are [90]standalone binary builds and a [91]desktop application (as an AppImage). An [92]online viewer can be used to inspect data for those who do not want to install arbitrary binaries on their computers.<br/><br/>The command-line application allows basic operations like downloading existing data sets and sharing your own. Dat uses a 32-byte hex string that is an [93]ed25519 public key , which is is used to discover and find content on the net. For example, this will download some sample data: $ dat clone \<br/><br/>dat://778f8d955175c92e4ced5e4f5563f69bfec0c86cc6f670352c457943666fe639 \<br/><br/>~/Downloads/dat-demo<br/><br/>Similarly, the share command is used to share content. It indexes the files in a given directory and creates a new unique address like the one above. The share command starts a server that uses multiple discovery mechanisms (currently, the [94]Mainline Distributed Hash Table (DHT), a [95]custom DNS server , and multicast DNS) to announce the content to its peers. This is how another user, armed with that public key, can download that content with dat clone or mirror the files continuously with dat sync .<br/><br/>So far, this looks a lot like BitTorrent [96]magnet links updated with 21st century cryptography. But Dat adds revisions on top of that, so modifications are automatically shared through the swarm. That is important for public data sets as those are often dynamic in nature. Revisions also make it possible to use [97]Dat as a backup system by saving the data incrementally using an [98]archiver .<br/><br/>While Dat is designed to work on larger data sets, processing them for sharing may take a while. For example, sharing the Linux kernel source code required about five minutes as Dat worked on indexing all of the files. This is comparable to the performance offered by [99]IPFS and BitTorrent. Data sets with more or larger files may take quite a bit more time.<br/><br/>One advantage that Dat has over IPFS is that it doesn't duplicate the data. When IPFS imports new data, it duplicates the files into ~/.ipfs . For collections of small files like the kernel, this is not a huge problem, but for larger files like videos or music, it's a significant limitation. IPFS eventually implemented a solution to this [100]problem in the form of the experimental [101]filestore feature , but it's not enabled by default. Even with that feature enabled, though, changes to data sets are not automatically tracked. In comparison, Dat operation on dynamic data feels much lighter. The downside is that each set needs its own dat share process.<br/><br/>Like any peer-to-peer system, Dat needs at least one peer to stay online to offer the content, which is impractical for mobile devices. Hosting providers like [102]Hashbase (which is a [103]pinning service in Dat jargon) can help users keep content online without running their own [104]server . The closest parallel in the traditional web ecosystem would probably be content distribution networks (CDN) although pinning services are not necessarily geographically distributed and a CDN does not necessarily retain a complete copy of a website. [105]<br/><br/>A web browser called [106]Beaker , based on the [107]Electron framework, can access Dat content natively without going through a pinning service. Furthermore, Beaker is essential to get any of the [108]Dat applications working, as they fundamentally rely on dat:// URLs to do their magic. This means that Dat applications won't work for most users unless they install that special web browser. There is a [109]Firefox extension called " [110]dat-fox " for people who don't want to install yet another browser, but it requires installing a [111]helper program . The extension will be able to load dat:// URLs but many applications will still not work. For example, the [112]photo gallery application completely fails with dat-fox.<br/><br/>Dat-based applications look promising from a privacy point of view. Because of its peer-to-peer nature, users regain control over where their data is stored: either on their own computer, an online server, or by a trusted third party. But considering the protocol is not well established in current web browsers, I foresee difficulties in adoption of that aspect of the Dat ecosystem. Beyond that, it is rather disappointing that Dat applications cannot run natively in a web browser given that JavaScript is designed exactly for that.<br/><br/>Dat privacy<br/><br/>An advantage Dat has over other peer-to-peer protocols like BitTorrent is end-to-end encryption. I was originally concerned by the encryption design when reading the [113]academic paper [PDF] :<br/><br/>It is up to client programs to make design decisions around which discovery networks they trust. For example if a Dat client decides to use the BitTorrent DHT to discover peers, and they are searching for a publicly shared Dat key (e.g. a key cited publicly in a published scientific paper) with known contents, then because of the privacy design of the BitTorrent DHT it becomes public knowledge what key that client is searching for.<br/><br/>So in other words, to share a secret file with another user, the public key is transmitted over a secure side-channel, only to then leak during the discovery process. Fortunately, the public Dat key is not directly used during discovery as it is [114]hashed with BLAKE2B . Still, the security model of Dat assumes the public key is private, which is a rather counterintuitive concept that might upset cryptographers and confuse users who are frequently encouraged to type such strings in address bars and search engines as part of the Dat experience. There is a [115]security & privacy FAQ in the Dat documentation warning about this problem:<br/><br/>One of the key elements of Dat privacy is that the public key is never used in any discovery network. The public key is hashed, creating the discovery key. Whenever peers attempt to connect to each other, they use the discovery key.<br/><br/>Data is encrypted using the public key, so it is important that this key stays secure.<br/><br/>There are other privacy issues outlined in the document; it states that " Dat faces similar privacy risks as BitTorrent ":<br/><br/>When you download a dataset, your IP address is exposed to the users sharing that dataset. This may lead to honeypot servers collecting IP addresses, as we've seen in Bittorrent. However, with dataset sharing we can create a web of trust model where specific institutions are trusted as primary sources for datasets, diminishing the sharing of IP addresses.<br/><br/>A Dat blog post refers to this issue as [116]reader privacy and it is, indeed, a sensitive issue in peer-to-peer networks. It is how BitTorrent users are discovered and served scary verbiage from lawyers, after all. But Dat makes this a little better because, to join a swarm, you must know what you are looking for already, which means peers who can look at swarm activity only include users who know the secret public key. This works well for secret content, but for larger, public data sets, it is a real problem; it is why the Dat project has [117]avoided creating a Wikipedia mirror so far.<br/><br/>I found another privacy issue that is not documented in the security FAQ during my review of the protocol. As mentioned earlier, the [118]Dat discovery protocol routinely phones home to DNS servers operated by the Dat project. This implies that the default discovery servers (and an attacker watching over their traffic) know who is publishing or seeking content, in essence discovering the "social network" behind Dat. This discovery mechanism can be disabled in clients, but a similar privacy issue applies to the DHT as well, although that is distributed so it doesn't require trust of the Dat project itself.<br/><br/>Considering those aspects of the protocol, privacy-conscious users will probably want to use Tor or other anonymization techniques to work around those concerns.<br/><br/>The future of Dat<br/><br/>[119]Dat 2.0 was released in June 2017 with performance improvements and protocol changes. [120]Dat Enhancement Proposals (DEPs) guide the project's future development; most work is currently geared toward implementing the draft " [121]multi-writer proposal " in [122]HyperDB . Without multi-writer support, only the original publisher of a Dat can modify it. According to Joe Hand, co-executive-director of [123]Code for Science & Society (CSS) and Dat core developer, in an IRC chat, "supporting multiwriter is a big requirement for lots of folks". For example, while Dat might allow Alice to share her research results with Bob, he cannot modify or contribute back to those results. The multi-writer extension allows for Alice to assign trust to Bob so he can have write access to the data.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, the current proposal doesn't solve the " hard problems " of " conflict merges and secure key distribution ". The former will be worked out through user interface tweaks, but the latter is a classic problem that security projects have typically trouble finding solutions for—Dat is no exception. How will Alice securely trust Bob? The OpenPGP web of trust? Hexadecimal fingerprints read over the phone? Dat doesn't provide a magic solution to this problem.<br/><br/>Another thing limiting adoption is that Dat is not packaged in any distribution that I could find (although I [124]requested it in Debian ) and, considering the speed of change of the JavaScript ecosystem, this is unlikely to change any time soon. A [125]Rust implementation of the Dat protocol has started, however, which might be easier to package than the multitude of [126]Node.js modules. In terms of mobile device support, there is an experimental Android web browser with Dat support called [127]Bunsen , which somehow doesn't run on my phone. Some adventurous users have successfully run Dat in [128]Termux . I haven't found an app running on iOS at this point.<br/><br/>Even beyond platform support, distributed protocols like Dat have a tough slope to climb against the virtual monopoly of more centralized protocols, so it remains to be seen how popular those tools will be. Hand says Dat is supported by multiple non-profit organizations. Beyond CSS, [129]Blue Link Labs is working on the Beaker Browser as a self-funded startup and a grass-roots organization, [130]Digital Democracy , has contributed to the project. The [131]Internet Archive has [132]announced a collaboration between itself, CSS, and the California Digital Library to launch a pilot project to see " how members of a cooperative, decentralized network can leverage shared services to ensure data preservation while reducing storage costs and increasing replication counts ".<br/><br/>Hand said adoption in academia has been "slow but steady" and that the [133]Dat in the Lab project has helped identify areas that could help researchers adopt the project. Unfortunately, as is the case with many free-software projects, he said that "our team is definitely a bit limited on bandwidth to push for bigger adoption". Hand said that the project received a grant from [134]Mozilla Open Source Support to improve its documentation, which will be a big help.<br/><br/>Ultimately, Dat suffers from a problem common to all peer-to-peer applications, which is naming. Dat addresses are not exactly intuitive: humans do not remember strings of 64 hexadecimal characters well. For this, Dat took a [135]similar approach to IPFS by using DNS TXT records and /.well-known URL paths to bridge existing, human-readable names with Dat hashes. So this sacrifices a part of the decentralized nature of the project in favor of usability.<br/><br/>I have tested a lot of distributed protocols like Dat in the past and I am not sure Dat is a clear winner. It certainly has advantages over IPFS in terms of usability and resource usage, but the lack of packages on most platforms is a big limit to adoption for most people. This means it will be difficult to share content with my friends and family with Dat anytime soon, which would probably be my primary use case for the project. Until the protocol reaches the wider adoption that BitTorrent has seen in terms of platform support, I will probably wait before switching everything over to this promising project.<br/><br/>[136]Comments (11 posted)<br/><br/>Page editor : Jonathan Corbet<br/><br/>Inside this week's LWN.net Weekly Edition<br/><br/>[137]Briefs : OpenSSH 7.8; 4.19-rc1; Which stable?; Netdev 0x12; Bison 3.1; Quotes; ...<br/><br/>[138]Announcements : Newsletters; events; security updates; kernel patches; ...

It was first publicly released in 2012. After an intense period of language development, version 1.0 was [13]released on August 8. The 1.0 release promises years of language stability; users can be confident that developments in the 1.x series will not break their code. This is the first part of a two-part article introducing the world of Julia. This part will introduce enough of the language syntax and constructs to allow you to begin to write simple programs. The following installment will acquaint you with the additional pieces needed to create real projects, and to make use of Julia's ecosystem.<br/><br/>Goals and history<br/><br/>The Julia project has ambitious goals. It wants the language to perform about as well as Fortran or C when running numerical algorithms, while remaining as pleasant to program in as Python. I believe the project has met these goals and is poised to see increasing adoption by numerical researchers, especially now that an official, stable release is available.<br/><br/>The Julia project maintains a [14]micro-benchmark page that compares its numerical performance against both statically compiled languages (C, Fortran) and dynamically typed languages (R, Python). While it's certainly possible to argue about the relevance and fairness of particular benchmarks, the data overall supports the Julia team's contention that Julia has generally achieved parity with Fortran and C; the benchmark source code is available.<br/><br/>Julia began as research in computer science at MIT; its creators are Alan Edelman, Stefan Karpinski, Jeff Bezanson, and Viral Shah. These four remain active developers of the language. They, along with Keno Fischer, co-founder and CTO of [15]Julia Computing , were kind enough to share their thoughts with us about the language. I'll be drawing on their comments later on; for now, let's get a taste of what Julia code looks like.<br/><br/>Getting started<br/><br/>To explore Julia initially, start up its standard [16]read-eval-print loop (REPL) by typing julia at the terminal, assuming that you have installed it. You will then be able to interact with what will seem to be an interpreted language — but, behind the scenes, those commands are being compiled by a just-in-time (JIT) compiler that uses the [17]LLVM compiler framework . This allows Julia to be interactive, while turning the code into fast, native machine instructions. However, the JIT compiler passes sometimes introduce noticeable delays at the REPL, especially when using a function for the first time.<br/><br/>To run a Julia program non-interactively, execute a command like: $ julia script.jl<br/><br/>Julia has all the usual data structures: numbers of various types (including complex and rational numbers), multidimensional arrays, dictionaries, strings, and characters. Functions are first-class: they can be passed as arguments to other functions, can be members of arrays, and so on.<br/><br/>Julia embraces Unicode. Strings, which are enclosed in double quotes, are arrays of Unicode characters, which are enclosed in single quotes. The " * " operator is used for string and character concatenation. Thus 'a' and 'β' are characters, and 'aβ' is a syntax error. "a" and "β" are strings, as are "aβ", 'a' * 'β', and "a" * "β" — all evaluate to the same string.<br/><br/>Variable and function names can contain non-ASCII characters. This, along with Julia's clever syntax that understands numbers prepended to variables to mean multiplication, goes a long way to allowing the numerical scientist to write code that more closely resembles the compact mathematical notation of the equations that usually lie behind it. julia ε₁ = 0.01<br/><br/>0.01<br/><br/>julia ε₂ = 0.02<br/><br/>0.02<br/><br/>julia 2ε₁ + 3ε₂<br/><br/>0.08<br/><br/>And where does Julia come down on the age-old debate of what do about 1/2 ? In Fortran and Python 2, this will get you 0, since 1 and 2 are integers, and the result is rounded down to the integer 0. This was deemed inconsistent, and confusing to some, so it was changed in Python 3 to return 0.5 — which is what you get in Julia, too.<br/><br/>While we're on the subject of fractions, Julia can handle rational numbers, with a special syntax: 3//5 + 2//3 returns 19//15 , while 3/5 + 2/3 gets you the floating-point answer 1.2666666666666666. Internally, Julia thinks of a rational number in its reduced form, so the expression 6//8 == 3//4 returns true , and numerator(6//8) returns 3 .<br/><br/>Arrays<br/><br/>Arrays are enclosed in square brackets and indexed with an iterator that can contain a step value: julia a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]<br/><br/>6-element Array{Int64,1}:<br/><br/>1<br/><br/>2<br/><br/>3<br/><br/>4<br/><br/>5<br/><br/>6<br/><br/>julia a[1:2:end]<br/><br/>3-element Array{Int64,1}:<br/><br/>1<br/><br/>3<br/><br/>5<br/><br/>As you can see, indexing starts at one, and the useful end index means the obvious thing. When you define a variable in the REPL, Julia replies with the type and value of the assigned data; you can suppress this output by ending your input line with a semicolon.<br/><br/>Since arrays are such a vital part of numerical computation, and Julia makes them easy to work with, we'll spend a bit more time with them than the other data structures.<br/><br/>To illustrate the syntax, we can start with a couple of 2D arrays, defined at the REPL: julia a = [1 2 3; 4 5 6]<br/><br/>2×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>1 2 3<br/><br/>4 5 6<br/><br/>julia z = [-1 -2 -3; -4 -5 -6];<br/><br/>Indexing is as expected: julia a[1, 2]<br/><br/>2<br/><br/>You can glue arrays together horizontally: julia [a z]<br/><br/>2×6 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>1 2 3 -1 -2 -3<br/><br/>4 5 6 -4 -5 -6<br/><br/>And vertically: julia [a; z]<br/><br/>4×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>1 2 3<br/><br/>4 5 6<br/><br/>-1 -2 -3<br/><br/>-4 -5 -6<br/><br/>Julia has all the usual operators for handling arrays, and [18]linear algebra functions that work with matrices (2D arrays). The linear algebra functions are part of Julia's standard library, but need to be imported with a command like " using LinearAlgebra ", which is a detail omitted from the current documentation. The functions include such things as determinants, matrix inverses, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, many kinds of matrix factorizations, etc. Julia has not reinvented the wheel here, but wisely uses the [19]LAPACK Fortran library of battle-tested linear algebra routines.<br/><br/>The extension of arithmetic operators to arrays is usually intuitive: julia a + z<br/><br/>2×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>0 0 0<br/><br/>0 0 0<br/><br/>And the numerical prepending syntax works with arrays, too: julia 3a + 4z<br/><br/>2×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>-1 -2 -3<br/><br/>-4 -5 -6<br/><br/>Putting a multiplication operator between two matrices gets you matrix multiplication: julia a * transpose(a)<br/><br/>2×2 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>14 32<br/><br/>32 77<br/><br/>You can "broadcast" numbers to cover all the elements in an array by prepending the usual arithmetic operators with a dot: julia 1 .+ a<br/><br/>2×3 Array{Int64,2}:<br/><br/>2 3 4<br/><br/>5 6 7<br/><br/>Note that the language only actually requires the dot for some operators, but not for others, such as "*" and "/". The reasons for this are arcane, and it probably makes sense to be consistent and use the dot whenever you intend broadcasting. Note also that the current version of the official documentation is incorrect in claiming that you may omit the dot from "+" and "-"; in fact, this now gives an error.<br/><br/>You can use the dot notation to turn any function into one that operates on each element of an array: julia round.(sin.([0, π/2, π, 3π/2, 2π]))<br/><br/>5-element Array{Float64,1}:<br/><br/>0.0<br/><br/>1.0<br/><br/>0.0<br/><br/>-1.0<br/><br/>-0.0<br/><br/>The example above illustrates chaining two dotted functions together. The Julia compiler turns expressions like this into "fused" operations: instead of applying each function in turn to create a new array that is passed to the next function, the compiler combines the functions into a single compound function that is applied once over the array, creating a significant optimization.<br/><br/>You can use this dot notation with any function, including your own, to turn it into a version that operates element-wise over arrays.<br/><br/>Dictionaries (associative arrays) can be defined with several syntaxes. Here's one: julia d1 = Dict("A"=1, "B"=2)<br/><br/>Dict{String,Int64} with 2 entries:<br/><br/>"B" = 2<br/><br/>"A" = 1<br/><br/>You may have noticed that the code snippets so far have not included any type declarations. Every value in Julia has a type, but the compiler will infer types if they are not specified. It is generally not necessary to declare types for performance, but type declarations sometimes serve other purposes, that we'll return to later. Julia has a deep and sophisticated type system, including user-defined types and C-like structs. Types can have behaviors associated with them, and can inherit behaviors from other types. The best thing about Julia's type system is that you can ignore it entirely, use just a few pieces of it, or spend weeks studying its design.<br/><br/>Control flow<br/><br/>Julia code is organized in blocks, which can indicate control flow, function definitions, and other code units. Blocks are terminated with the end keyword, and indentation is not significant. Statements are separated either with newlines or semicolons.<br/><br/>Julia has the typical control flow constructs; here is a while block: julia i = 1;<br/><br/>julia while i 5<br/><br/>print(i)<br/><br/>global i = i + 1<br/><br/>end<br/><br/>1234<br/><br/>Notice the global keyword. Most blocks in Julia introduce a local scope for variables; without this keyword here, we would get an error about an undefined variable.<br/><br/>Julia has the usual if statements and for loops that use the same iterators that we introduced above for array indexing. We can also iterate over collections: julia for i ∈ ['a', 'b', 'c']<br/><br/>println(i)<br/><br/>end<br/><br/>a<br/><br/>b<br/><br/>c<br/><br/>In place of the fancy math symbol in this for loop, we can use " = " or " in ". If you want to use the math symbol but have no convenient way to type it, the REPL will help you: type " \in " and the TAB key, and the symbol appears; you can type many [20]LaTeX expressions into the REPL in this way.<br/><br/>Development of Julia<br/><br/>The language is developed on GitHub, with over 700 contributors. The Julia team mentioned in their email to us that the decision to use GitHub has been particularly good for Julia, as it streamlined the process for many of their contributors, who are scientists or domain experts in various fields, rather than professional software developers.<br/><br/>The creators of Julia have [21]published [PDF] a detailed “mission statement” for the language, describing their aims and motivations. A key issue that they wanted their language to solve is what they called the "two-language problem." This situation is familiar to anyone who has used Python or another dynamic language on a demanding numerical problem. To get good performance, you will wind up rewriting the numerically intensive parts of the program in C or Fortran, dealing with the interface between the two languages, and may still be disappointed in the overhead presented by calling the foreign routines from your original code.<br/><br/>For Python, [22]NumPy and SciPy wrap many numerical routines, written in Fortran or C, for efficient use from that language, but you can only take advantage of this if your calculation fits the pattern of an available routine; in more general cases, where you will have to write a loop over your data, you are stuck with Python's native performance, which is orders of magnitude slower. If you switch to an alternative, faster implementation of Python, such as [23]PyPy , the numerical libraries may not be compatible; NumPy became available for PyPy only within about the past year.<br/><br/>Julia solves the two-language problem by being as expressive and simple to program in as a dynamic scripting language, while having the native performance of a static, compiled language. There is no need to write numerical libraries in a second language, but C or Fortran library routines can be called using a facility that Julia has built-in. Other languages, such as [24]Python or [25]R , can also interoperate easily with Julia using external packages.<br/><br/>Documentation<br/><br/>There are many resources to turn to to learn the language. There is an extensive and detailed [26]manual at Julia headquarters, and this may be a good place to start. However, although the first few chapters provide a gentle introduction, the material soon becomes dense and, at times, hard to follow, with references to concepts that are not explained until later chapters. Fortunately, there is a [27]"learning" link at the top of the Julia home page, which takes you to a long list of videos, tutorials, books, articles, and classes both about Julia and that use Julia in teaching subjects such a numerical analysis. There is also a fairly good [28]cheat-sheet [PDF] , which was just updated for v. 1.0.<br/><br/>If you're coming from Python, [29]this list of noteworthy differences between Python and Julia syntax will probably be useful.<br/><br/>Some of the linked tutorials are in the form of [30]Jupyter notebooks — indeed, the name "Jupyter" is formed from "Julia", "Python", and "R", which are the three original languages supported by the interface. The [31]Julia kernel for Jupyter was recently upgraded to support v. 1.0. Judicious sampling of a variety of documentation sources, combined with liberal experimentation, may be the best way of learning the language. Jupyter makes this experimentation more inviting for those who enjoy the web-based interface, but the REPL that comes with Julia helps a great deal in this regard by providing, for instance, TAB completion and an extensive help system invoked by simply pressing the "?" key.<br/><br/>Stay tuned<br/><br/>The [32]next installment in this two-part series will explain how Julia is organized around the concept of "multiple dispatch". You will learn how to create functions and make elementary use of Julia's type system. We'll see how to install packages and use modules, and how to make graphs. Finally, Part 2 will briefly survey the important topics of macros and distributed computing.<br/><br/>[33]Comments (80 posted)<br/><br/>[34]C considered dangerous<br/><br/>By Jake Edge<br/><br/>August 29, 2018<br/><br/>[35]LSS NA<br/><br/>At the North America edition of the [36]2018 Linux Security Summit (LSS NA), which was held in late August in Vancouver, Canada, Kees Cook gave a presentation on some of the dangers that come with programs written in C. In particular, of course, the Linux kernel is mostly written in C, which means that the security of our systems rests on a somewhat dangerous foundation. But there are things that can be done to help firm things up by " Making C Less Dangerous " as the title of his talk suggested.<br/><br/>He began with a brief summary of the work that he and others are doing as part of the [37]Kernel Self Protection Project (KSPP). The goal of the project is to get kernel protections merged into the mainline. These protections are not targeted at protecting user-space processes from other (possibly rogue) processes, but are, instead, focused on protecting the kernel from user-space code. There are around 12 organizations and ten individuals working on roughly 20 different technologies as part of the KSPP, he said. The progress has been "slow and steady", he said, which is how he thinks it should go. [38]<br/><br/>One of the main problems is that C is treated mostly like a fancy assembler. The kernel developers do this because they want the kernel to be as fast and as small as possible. There are other reasons, too, such as the need to do architecture-specific tasks that lack a C API (e.g. setting up page tables, switching to 64-bit mode).<br/><br/>But there is lots of undefined behavior in C. This "operational baggage" can lead to various problems. In addition, C has a weak standard library with multiple utility functions that have various pitfalls. In C, the content of uninitialized automatic variables is undefined, but in the machine code that it gets translated to, the value is whatever happened to be in that memory location before. In C, a function pointer can be called even if the type of the pointer does not match the type of the function being called—assembly doesn't care, it just jumps to a location, he said.<br/><br/>The APIs in the standard library are also bad in many cases. He asked: why is there no argument to memcpy() to specify the maximum destination length? He noted a recent [39]blog post from Raph Levien entitled "With Undefined Behavior, Anything is Possible". That obviously resonated with Cook, as he pointed out his T-shirt—with the title and artwork from the post.<br/><br/>Less danger<br/><br/>He then moved on to some things that kernel developers can do (and are doing) to get away from some of the dangers of C. He began with variable-length arrays (VLAs), which can be used to overflow the stack to access data outside of its region. Even if the stack has a guard page, VLAs can be used to jump past it to write into other memory, which can then be used by some other kind of attack. The C language is "perfectly fine with this". It is easy to find uses of VLAs with the -Wvla flag, however.<br/><br/>But it turns out that VLAs are [40]not just bad from a security perspective , they are also slow. In a micro-benchmark associated with a [41]patch removing a VLA , a 13% performance boost came from using a fixed-size array. He dug in a bit further and found that much more code is being generated to handle a VLA, which explains the speed increase. Since Linus Torvalds has [42]declared that VLAs should be removed from the kernel because they cause security problems and also slow the kernel down; Cook said "don't use VLAs".<br/><br/>Another problem area is switch statements, in particular where there is no break for a case . That could mean that the programmer expects and wants to fall through to the next case or it could be that the break was simply forgotten. There is a way to get a warning from the compiler for fall-throughs, but there needs to be a way to mark those that are truly meant to be that way. A special fall-through "statement" in the form of a comment is what has been agreed on within the static-analysis community. He and others have been going through each of the places where there is no break to add these comments (or a break ); they have "found a lot of bugs this way", he said.<br/><br/>Uninitialized local variables will generate a warning, but not if the variable is passed in by reference. There are some GCC plugins that will automatically initialize these variables, but there are also patches for both GCC and Clang to provide a compiler option to do so. Neither of those is upstream yet, but Torvalds has praised the effort so the kernel would likely use the option. An interesting side effect that came about while investigating this was a warning he got about unreachable code when he enabled the auto-initialization. There were two variables declared just after a switch (and outside of any case ), where they would never be reached.<br/><br/>Arithmetic overflow is another undefined behavior in C that can cause various problems. GCC can check for signed overflow, which performs well (the overhead is in the noise, he said), but adding warning messages for it does grow the kernel by 6%; making the overflow abort, instead, only adds 0.1%. Clang can check for both signed and unsigned overflow; signed overflow is undefined, while unsigned overflow is defined, but often unexpected. Marking places where unsigned overflow is expected is needed; it would be nice to get those annotations put into the kernel, Cook said.<br/><br/>Explicit bounds checking is expensive. Doing it for copy_{to,from}_user() is a less than 1% performance hit, but adding it to the strcpy() and memcpy() families are around a 2% hit. Pre-Meltdown that would have been a totally impossible performance regression for security, he said; post-Meltdown, since it is less than 5%, maybe there is a chance to add this checking.<br/><br/>Better APIs would help as well. He pointed to the evolution of strcpy() , through str n cpy() and str l cpy() (each with their own bounds flaws) to str s cpy() , which seems to be "OK so far". He also mentioned memcpy() again as a poor API with respect to bounds checking.<br/><br/>Hardware support for bounds checking is available in the application data integrity (ADI) feature for SPARC and is coming for Arm; it may also be available for Intel processors at some point. These all use a form of "memory tagging", where allocations get a tag that is stored in the high-order byte of the address. An offset from the address can be checked by the hardware to see if it still falls within the allocated region based on the tag.<br/><br/>Control-flow integrity (CFI) has become more of an issue lately because much of what attackers had used in the past has been marked as "no execute" so they are turning to using existing code "gadgets" already present in the kernel by hijacking existing indirect function calls. In C, you can just call pointers without regard to the type as it just treats them as an address to jump to. Clang has a CFI-sanitize feature that enforces the function prototype to restrict the calls that can be made. It is done at runtime and is not perfect, in part because there are lots of functions in the kernel that take one unsigned long parameter and return an unsigned long.<br/><br/>Attacks on CFI have both a "forward edge", which is what CFI sanitize tries to handle, and a "backward edge" that comes from manipulating the stack values, the return address in particular. Clang has two methods available to prevent the stack manipulation. The first is the "safe stack", which puts various important items (e.g. "safe" variables, register spills, and the return address) on a separate stack. Alternatively, the "shadow stack" feature creates a separate stack just for return addresses.<br/><br/>One problem with these other stacks is that they are still writable, so if an attacker can find them in memory, they can still perform their attacks. Hardware-based protections, like Intel's Control-Flow Enforcement Technology (CET), [43]provides a read-only shadow call stack for return addresses. Another hardware protection is [44]pointer authentication for Arm, which adds a kind of encrypted tag to the return address that can be verified before it is used.<br/><br/>Status and challenges<br/><br/>Cook then went through the current status of handling these different problems in the kernel. VLAs are almost completely gone, he said, just a few remain in the crypto subsystem; he hopes those VLAs will be gone by 4.20 (or whatever the number of the next kernel release turns out to be). Once that happens, he plans to turn on -Wvla for the kernel build so that none creep back in.<br/><br/>There has been steady progress made on marking fall-through cases in switch statements. Only 745 remain to be handled of the 2311 that existed when this work started; each one requires scrutiny to determine what the author's intent is. Auto-initialized local variables can be done using compiler plugins, but that is "not quite what we want", he said. More compiler support would be helpful there. For arithmetic overflow, it would be nice to see GCC get support for the unsigned case, but memory allocations are now doing explicit overflow checking at this point.<br/><br/>Bounds checking has seen some "crying about performance hits", so we are waiting impatiently for hardware support, he said. CFI forward-edge protection needs [45]link-time optimization (LTO) support for Clang in the kernel, but it is currently working on Android. For backward-edge mitigation, the Clang shadow call stack is working on Android, but we are impatiently waiting for hardware support for that too.<br/><br/>There are a number of challenges in doing security development for the kernel, Cook said. There are cultural boundaries due to conservatism within the kernel community; that requires patiently working and reworking features in order to get them upstream. There are, of course, technical challenges because of the complexity of security changes; those kinds of problems can be solved. There are also resource limitations in terms of developers, testers, reviewers, and so on. KSPP and the other kernel security developers are still making that "slow but steady" progress.<br/><br/>Cook's [46]slides [PDF] are available for interested readers; before long, there should be a video available of the talk as well.<br/><br/>[I would like to thank LWN's travel sponsor, the Linux Foundation, for travel assistance to attend the Linux Security Summit in Vancouver.]<br/><br/>[47]Comments (70 posted)<br/><br/>[48]The second half of the 4.19 merge window<br/><br/>By Jonathan Corbet<br/><br/>August 26, 2018 By the time Linus Torvalds [49]released 4.19-rc1 and closed the merge window for this development cycle, 12,317 non-merge changesets had found their way into the mainline; about 4,800 of those landed after [50]last week's summary was written. As tends to be the case late in the merge window, many of those changes were fixes for the bigger patches that went in early, but there were also a number of new features added. Some of the more significant changes include:<br/><br/>Core kernel<br/><br/>The full set of patches adding [51]control-group awareness to the out-of-memory killer has not been merged due to ongoing disagreements, but one piece of it has: there is a new memory.oom.group control knob that will cause all processes within a control group to be killed in an out-of-memory situation.<br/><br/>A new set of protections has been added to prevent an attacker from fooling a program into writing to an existing file or FIFO. An open with the O_CREAT flag to a file or FIFO in a world-writable, sticky directory (e.g. /tmp ) will fail if the owner of the opening process is not the owner of either the target file or the containing directory. This behavior, disabled by default, is controlled by the new protected_regular and protected_fifos sysctl knobs.<br/><br/>Filesystems and block layer<br/><br/>The dm-integrity device-mapper target can now use a separate device for metadata storage.<br/><br/>EROFS, the "enhanced read-only filesystem", has been added to the staging tree.

[54]Torvalds said : " They are not useful. They annoy everybody, and nobody ever does anything about them, because it's always 'somebody elses problem'. And when people start thinking that warnings are normal, they stop looking at them, and the real warnings that mean something go unnoticed. "<br/><br/>The minimum version of GCC required by the kernel has been moved up to 4.6.<br/><br/>There are a couple of significant changes that failed to get in this time around, including the [55]XArray data structure. The patches are thought to be ready, but they had the bad luck to be based on a tree that failed to be merged for other reasons, so Torvalds [56]didn't even look at them . That, in turn, blocks another set of patches intended to enable migration of slab-allocated objects.<br/><br/>The other big deferral is the [57]new system-call API for filesystem mounting . Despite ongoing [58]concerns about what happens when the same low-level device is mounted multiple times with conflicting options, Al Viro sent [59]a pull request to send this work upstream. The ensuing discussion made it clear that there is still not a consensus in this area, though, so it seems that this work has to wait for another cycle.<br/><br/>Assuming all goes well, the kernel will stabilize over the coming weeks and the final 4.19 release will happen in mid-October.<br/><br/>[60]Comments (1 posted)<br/><br/>[61]Measuring (and fixing) I/O-controller throughput loss<br/><br/>August 29, 2018<br/><br/>This article was contributed by Paolo Valente<br/><br/>Many services, from web hosting and video streaming to cloud storage, need to move data to and from storage. They also often require that each per-client I/O flow be guaranteed a non-zero amount of bandwidth and a bounded latency. An expensive way to provide these guarantees is to over-provision storage resources, keeping each resource underutilized, and thus have plenty of bandwidth available for the few I/O flows dispatched to each medium. Alternatively one can use an I/O controller. Linux provides two mechanisms designed to throttle some I/O streams to allow others to meet their bandwidth and latency requirements. These mechanisms work, but they come at a cost: a loss of as much as 80% of total available I/O bandwidth. I have run some tests to demonstrate this problem; some upcoming improvements to the [62]bfq I/O scheduler promise to improve the situation considerably.<br/><br/>Throttling does guarantee control, even on drives that happen to be highly utilized but, as will be seen, it has a hard time actually ensuring that drives are highly utilized. Even with greedy I/O flows, throttling easily ends up utilizing as little as 20% of the available speed of a flash-based drive. Such a speed loss may be particularly problematic with lower-end storage. On the opposite end, it is also disappointing with high-end hardware, as the Linux block I/O stack itself has been [63]redesigned from the ground up to fully utilize the high speed of modern, fast storage. In addition, throttling fails to guarantee the expected bandwidths if I/O contains both reads and writes, or is sporadic in nature.<br/><br/>On the bright side, there now seems to be an effective alternative for controlling I/O: the proportional-share policy provided by the bfq I/O scheduler. It enables nearly 100% storage bandwidth utilization, at least with some of the workloads that are problematic for throttling. An upcoming version of bfq may be able to achieve this result with almost all workloads. Finally, bfq guarantees bandwidths with all workloads. The current limitation of bfq is that its execution overhead becomes significant at speeds above 400,000 I/O operations per second on commodity CPUs.<br/><br/>Using the bfq I/O scheduler, Linux can now guarantee low latency to lightweight flows containing sporadic, short I/O. No throughput issues arise, and no configuration is required. This capability benefits important, time-sensitive tasks, such as video or audio streaming, as well as executing commands or starting applications. Although benchmarks are not available yet, these guarantees might also be provided by the newly proposed [64]I/O latency controller . It allows administrators to set target latencies for I/O requests originating from each group of processes, and favors the groups with the lowest target latency.<br/><br/>The testbed<br/><br/>I ran the tests with an ext4 filesystem mounted on a PLEXTOR PX-256M5S SSD, which features a peak rate of ~160MB/s with random I/O, and of ~500MB/s with sequential I/O. I used blk-mq, in Linux 4.18. The system was equipped with a 2.4GHz Intel Core i7-2760QM CPU and 1.3GHz DDR3 DRAM. In such a system, a single thread doing synchronous reads reaches a throughput of 23MB/s.<br/><br/>For the purposes of these tests, each process is considered to be in one of two groups, termed "target" and "interferers". A target is a single-process, I/O-bound group whose I/O is focused on. In particular, I measure the I/O throughput enjoyed by this group to get the minimum bandwidth delivered to the group. An interferer is single-process group whose role is to generate additional I/O that interferes with the I/O of the target. The tested workloads contain one target and multiple interferers.<br/><br/>The single process in each group either reads or writes, through asynchronous (buffered) operations, to one file — different from the file read or written by any other process — after invalidating the buffer cache for the file. I define a reader or writer process as either "random" or "sequential", depending on whether it reads or writes its file at random positions or sequentially. Finally, an interferer is defined as being either "active" or "inactive" depending on whether it performs I/O during the test. When an interferer is mentioned, it is assumed that the interferer is active.<br/><br/>Workloads are defined so as to try to cover the combinations that, I believe, most influence the performance of the storage device and of the I/O policies. For brevity, in this article I show results for only two groups of workloads:<br/><br/>Static sequential : four synchronous sequential readers or four asynchronous sequential writers, plus five inactive interferers.<br/><br/>Static random : four synchronous random readers, all with a block size equal to 4k, plus five inactive interferers.<br/><br/>To create each workload, I considered, for each mix of interferers in the group, two possibilities for the target: it could be either a random or a sequential synchronous reader. In [65]a longer version of this article [PDF] , you will also find results for workloads with varying degrees of I/O randomness, and for dynamic workloads (containing sporadic I/O sources). These extra results confirm the losses of throughput and I/O control for throttling that are shown here.<br/><br/>I/O policies<br/><br/>Linux provides two I/O-control mechanisms for guaranteeing (a minimum) bandwidth, or at least fairness, to long-lived flows: the throttling and proportional-share I/O policies. With throttling, one can set a maximum bandwidth limit — "max limit" for brevity — for the I/O of each group. Max limits can be used, in an indirect way, to provide the service guarantee at the focus of this article. For example, to guarantee minimum bandwidths to I/O flows, a group can be guaranteed a minimum bandwidth by limiting the maximum bandwidth of all the other groups.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, max limits have two drawbacks in terms of throughput. First, if some groups do not use their allocated bandwidth, that bandwidth cannot be reclaimed by other active groups. Second, limits must comply with the worst-case speed of the device, namely, its random-I/O peak rate. Such limits will clearly leave a lot of throughput unused with workloads that otherwise would drive the device to higher throughput levels. Maximizing throughput is simply not a goal of max limits. So, for brevity, test results with max limits are not shown here. You can find these results, plus a more detailed description of the above drawbacks, in the long version of this article.<br/><br/>Because of these drawbacks, a new, still experimental, low limit has been added to the throttling policy. If a group is assigned a low limit, then the throttling policy automatically limits the I/O of the other groups in such a way to guarantee to the group a minimum bandwidth equal to its assigned low limit. This new throttling mechanism throttles no group as long as every group is getting at least its assigned minimum bandwidth. I tested this mechanism, but did not consider the interesting problem of guaranteeing minimum bandwidths while, at the same time, enforcing maximum bandwidths.<br/><br/>The other I/O policy available in Linux, proportional share, provides weighted fairness. Each group is assigned a weight, and should receive a portion of the total throughput proportional to its weight. This scheme guarantees minimum bandwidths in the same way that low limits do in throttling. In particular, it guarantees to each group a minimum bandwidth equal to the ratio between the weight of the group, and the sum of the weights of all the groups that may be active at the same time.<br/><br/>The actual implementation of the proportional-share policy, on a given drive, depends on what flavor of the block layer is in use for that drive. If the drive is using the legacy block interface, the policy is implemented by the cfq I/O scheduler. Unfortunately, cfq fails to control bandwidths with flash-based storage, especially on drives featuring command queueing. This case is not considered in these tests. With drives using the multiqueue interface, proportional share is implemented by bfq. This is the combination considered in the tests.<br/><br/>To benchmark both throttling (low limits) and proportional share, I tested, for each workload, the combinations of I/O policies and I/O schedulers reported in the table below. In the end, there are three test cases for each workload. In addition, for some workloads, I considered two versions of bfq for the proportional-share policy.<br/><br/>Name<br/><br/>I/O policy<br/><br/>Scheduler<br/><br/>Parameter for target<br/><br/>Parameter for each of the four active interferers<br/><br/>Parameter for each of the five inactive interferers<br/><br/>Sum of parameters<br/><br/>low-none<br/><br/>Throttling with low limits<br/><br/>none<br/><br/>10MB/s<br/><br/>10MB/s (tot: 40)<br/><br/>20MB/s (tot: 100)<br/><br/>150MB/s<br/><br/>prop-bfq<br/><br/>Proportional share<br/><br/>bfq<br/><br/>300<br/><br/>100 (tot: 400)<br/><br/>200 (tot: 1000)<br/><br/>1700<br/><br/>For low limits, I report results with only none as the I/O scheduler, because the results are the same with kyber and mq-deadline.<br/><br/>The capabilities of the storage medium and of low limits drove the policy configurations. In particular:<br/><br/>The configuration of the target and of the active interferers for low-none is the one for which low-none provides its best possible minimum-bandwidth guarantee to the target: 10MB/s, guaranteed if all interferers are readers. Results remain the same regardless of the values used for target latency and idle time; I set them to 100µs and 1000µs, respectively, for every group.<br/><br/>Low limits for inactive interferers are set to twice the limits for active interferers, to pose greater difficulties to the policy.<br/><br/>I chose weights for prop-bfq so as to guarantee about the same minimum bandwidth as low-none to the target, in the same only-reader worst case as for low-none and to preserve, between the weights of active and inactive interferers, the same ratio as between the low limits of active and inactive interferers.<br/><br/>Full details on configurations can be found in the long version of this article.<br/><br/>Each workload was run ten times for each policy, plus ten times without any I/O control, i.e., with none as I/O scheduler and no I/O policy in use. For each run, I measured the I/O throughput of the target (which reveals the bandwidth provided to the target), the cumulative I/O throughput of the interferers, and the total I/O throughput. These quantities fluctuated very little during each run, as well as across different runs. Thus in the graphs I report only averages over per-run average throughputs. In particular, for the case of no I/O control, I report only the total I/O throughput, to give an idea of the throughput that can be reached without imposing any control.<br/><br/>Results<br/><br/>This plot shows throughput results for the simplest group of workloads: the static-sequential set.<br/><br/>With a random reader as the target against sequential readers as interferers, low-none does guarantee the configured low limit to the target. Yet it reaches only a low total throughput. The throughput of the random reader evidently oscillates around 10MB/s during the test. This implies that it is at least slightly below 10MB/s for a significant percentage of the time. But when this happens, the low-limit mechanism limits the maximum bandwidth of every active group to the low limit set for the group, i.e., to just 10MB/s. The end result is a total throughput lower than 10% of the throughput reached without I/O control.<br/><br/>That said, the high throughput achieved without I/O control is obtained by choking the random I/O of the target in favor of the sequential I/O of the interferers. Thus, it is probably more interesting to compare low-none throughput with the throughput reachable while actually guaranteeing 10MB/s to the target. The target is a single, synchronous, random reader, which reaches 23MB/s while active. So, to guarantee 10MB/s to the target, it is enough to serve it for about half of the time, and the interferers for the other half. Since the device reaches ~500MB/s with the sequential I/O of the interferers, the resulting throughput with this service scheme would be (500+23)/2, or about 260MB/s. low-none thus reaches less than 20% of the total throughput that could be reached while still preserving the target bandwidth.<br/><br/>prop-bfq provides the target with a slightly higher throughput than low-none. This makes it harder for prop-bfq to reach a high total throughput, because prop-bfq serves more random I/O (from the target) than low-none. Nevertheless, prop-bfq gets a much higher total throughput than low-none. According to the above estimate, this throughput is about 90% of the maximum throughput that could be reached, for this workload, without violating service guarantees. The reason for this good result is that bfq provides an effective implementation of the proportional-share service policy. At any time, each active group is granted a fraction of the current total throughput, and the sum of these fractions is equal to one; so group bandwidths naturally saturate the available total throughput at all times.<br/><br/>Things change with the second workload: a random reader against sequential writers. Now low-none reaches a much higher total throughput than prop-bfq. low-none serves much more sequential (write) I/O than prop-bfq because writes somehow break the low-limit mechanisms and prevail over the reads of the target. Conceivably, this happens because writes tend to both starve reads in the OS (mainly by eating all available I/O tags) and to cheat on their completion time in the drive. In contrast, bfq is intentionally configured to privilege reads, to counter these issues.<br/><br/>In particular, low-none gets an even higher throughput than no I/O control at all because it penalizes the random I/O of the target even more than the no-controller configuration.<br/><br/>Finally, with the last two workloads, prop-bfq reaches even higher total throughput than with the first two. It happens because the target also does sequential I/O, and serving sequential I/O is much more beneficial for throughput than serving random I/O. With these two workloads, the total throughput is, respectively, close to or much higher than that reached without I/O control. For the last workload, the total throughput is much higher because, differently from none, bfq privileges reads over asynchronous writes, and reads yield a higher throughput than writes. In contrast, low-none still gets lower or much lower throughput than prop-bfq, because of the same issues that hinder low-none throughput with the first two workloads.<br/><br/>As for bandwidth guarantees, with readers as interferers (third workload), prop-bfq, as expected, gives the target a fraction of the total throughput proportional to its weight. bfq approximates perfect proportional-share bandwidth distribution among groups doing I/O of the same type (reads or writes) and with the same locality (sequential or random). With the last workload, prop-bfq gives much more throughput to the reader than to all the interferers, because interferers are asynchronous writers, and bfq privileges reads.<br/><br/>The second group of workloads (static random), is the one, among all the workloads considered, for which prop-bfq performs worst. Results are shown below:<br/><br/>This chart reports results not only for mainline bfq, but also for an improved version of bfq which is currently under public testing. As can be seen, with only random readers, prop-bfq reaches a much lower total throughput than low-none. This happens because of the Achilles heel of the bfq I/O scheduler. If the process in service does synchronous I/O and has a higher weight than some other process, then, to give strong bandwidth guarantees to that process, bfq plugs I/O dispatching every time the process temporarily stops issuing I/O requests. In this respect, processes actually have differentiated weights and do synchronous I/O in the workloads tested. So bfq systematically performs I/O plugging for them. Unfortunately, this plugging empties the internal queues of the drive, which kills throughput with random I/O. And the I/O of all processes in these workloads is also random.<br/><br/>The situation reverses with a sequential reader as target. Yet, the most interesting results come from the new version of bfq, containing small changes to counter exactly the above weakness. This version recovers most of the throughput loss with the workload made of only random I/O and more; with the second workload, where the target is a sequential reader, it reaches about 3.7 times the total throughput of low-none.<br/><br/>When the main concern is the latency of flows containing short I/O, Linux seems now rather high performing, thanks to the bfq I/O scheduler and the I/O latency controller. But if the requirement is to provide explicit bandwidth guarantees (or just fairness) to I/O flows, then one must be ready to give up much or most of the speed of the storage media. bfq helps with some workloads, but loses most of the throughput with workloads consisting of mostly random I/O. Fortunately, there is apparently hope for much better performance since an improvement, still under development, seems to enable bfq to reach a high throughput with all workloads tested so far.<br/><br/><h3>I wish to thank Vivek Goyal for enabling me to make this article much more fair and sound.]<br/><br/>[66]Comments (4 posted)<br/><br/>[67]KDE's onboarding initiative, one year later<br/><br/>August 24, 2018<br/><br/>This article was contributed by Marta Rybczyńska<br/><br/>[68]Akademy<br/><br/>In 2017, the KDE community decided on [69]three goals to concentrate on for the next few years. One of them was [70]streamlining the onboarding of new contributors (the others were [71]improving usability and [72]privacy ). During [73]Akademy , the yearly KDE conference that was held in Vienna in August, Neofytos Kolokotronis shared the status of the onboarding goal, the work done during the last year, and further plans. While it is a complicated process in a project as big and diverse as KDE, numerous improvements have been already made.<br/><br/>Two of the three KDE community goals were proposed by relative newcomers. Kolokotronis was one of those, having joined the [74]KDE Promo team not long before proposing the focus on onboarding. He had previously been involved with [75]Chakra Linux , a distribution based on KDE software. The fact that new members of the community proposed strategic goals was also noted in the [76]Sunday keynote by Claudia Garad .<br/><br/>Proper onboarding adds excitement to the contribution process and increases retention, he explained. When we look at [77]the definition of onboarding , it is a process in which the new contributors acquire knowledge, skills, and behaviors so that they can contribute effectively. Kolokotronis proposed to see it also as socialization: integration into the project's relationships, culture, structure, and procedures.<br/><br/>The gains from proper onboarding are many. The project can grow by attracting new blood with new perspectives and solutions. The community maintains its health and stays vibrant. Another important advantage of efficient onboarding is that replacing current contributors becomes easier when they change interests, jobs, or leave the project for whatever reason. Finally, successful onboarding adds new advocates to the project.<br/><br/>Achievements so far and future plans<br/><br/>The team started with ideas for a centralized onboarding process for the whole of KDE. They found out quickly that this would not work because KDE is "very decentralized", so it is hard to provide tools and procedures that are going to work for the whole project. According to Kolokotronis, other characteristics of KDE that impact onboarding are high diversity, remote and online teams, and hundreds of contributors in dozens of projects and teams. In addition, new contributors already know in which area they want to take part and they prefer specific information that will be directly useful for them.<br/><br/>So the team changed its approach; several changes have since been proposed and implemented. The [78]Get Involved page, which is expected to be one of the resources new contributors read first, has been rewritten. For the [79]Junior Jobs page , the team is [80] [81]discussing what the generic content for KDE as a whole should be. The team simplified [82]Phabricator registration , which resulted in documenting the process better. Another part of the work includes the [83]KDE Bugzilla ; it includes, for example initiatives to limit the number of states of a ticket or remove obsolete products.<br/><br/>The [84]Plasma Mobile team is heavily involved in the onboarding goal. The Plasma Mobile developers have simplified their development environment setup and created an [85]interactive "Get Involved" page. In addition, the Plasma team changed the way task descriptions are written; they now contain more detail, so that it is easier to get involved. The basic description should be short and clear, and it should include details of the problem and possible solutions. The developers try to share the list of skills necessary to fulfill the tasks and include clear links to the technical resources needed.<br/><br/>Kolokotronis and team also identified a new potential source of contributors for KDE: distributions using KDE. They have the advantage of already knowing and using the software. The next idea the team is working on is to make sure that setting up a development environment is easy. The team plans to work on this during a dedicated sprint this autumn.<br/><br/>Searching for new contributors<br/><br/>Kolokotronis plans to search for new contributors at the periphery of the project, among the "skilled enthusiasts": loyal users who actually care about the project. They "can make wonders", he said. Those individuals may be also less confident or shy, have troubles making the first step, and need guidance. The project leaders should take that into account.<br/><br/>In addition, newcomers are all different. Kolokotronis provided a long list of how contributors differ, including skills and knowledge, motives and interests, and time and dedication. His advice is to "try to find their superpower", the skills they have that are missing in the team. Those "superpowers" can then be used for the benefit of the project.<br/><br/>If a project does nothing else, he said, it can start with its documentation. However, this does not only mean code documentation. Writing down the procedures or information about the internal work of the project, like who is working on what, is an important part of a project's documentation and helps newcomers. There should be also guidelines on how to start, especially setting up the development environment.<br/><br/>The first thing the project leaders should do, according to Kolokotronis, is to spend time on introducing newcomers to the project. Ideally every new contributor should be assigned mentors — more experienced members who can help them when needed. The mentors and project leaders should find tasks that are interesting for each person. Answering an audience question on suggestions for shy new contributors, he recommended even more mentoring. It is also very helpful to make sure that newcomers have enough to read, but "avoid RTFM", he highlighted. It is also easy for a new contributor "to fly away", he said. The solution is to keep requesting things and be proactive.<br/><br/>What the project can do?<br/><br/>Kolokotronis suggested a number of actions for a project when it wants to improve its onboarding. The first step is preparation: the project leaders should know the team's and the project's needs. Long-term planning is important, too. It is not enough to wait for contributors to come — the project should be proactive, which means reaching out to candidates, suggesting appropriate tasks and, finally, making people available for the newcomers if they need help.<br/><br/>This leads to next step: to be a mentor. Kolokotronis suggests being a "great host", but also trying to phase out the dependency on the mentor rapidly. "We have been all newcomers", he said. It can be intimidating to join an existing group. Onboarding creates a sense of belonging which, in turn, increases retention.<br/><br/>The last step proposed was to be strategic. This includes thinking about the emotions you want newcomers to feel. Kolokotronis explained the strategic part with an example. The overall goal is (surprise!) improve onboarding of new contributors. An intermediate objective might be to keep the newcomers after they have made their first commit. If your strategy is to keep them confident and proud, you can use different tactics like praise and acknowledgment of the work in public. Another useful tactic may be assigning simple tasks, according to the skill of the contributor.<br/><br/>To summarize, the most important thing, according to Kolokotronis, is to respond quickly and spend time with new contributors. This time should be used to explain procedures, and to introduce the people and culture. It is also essential to guide first contributions and praise contributor's skill and effort. Increase the difficulty of tasks over time to keep contributors motivated and challenged. And finally, he said, "turn them into mentors".<br/><br/>Kolokotronis acknowledges that onboarding "takes time" and "everyone complains" about it. However, he is convinced that it is beneficial in the long term and that it decreases developer turnover.<br/><br/>Advice to newcomers<br/><br/>Kolokotronis concluded with some suggestions for newcomers to a project. They should try to be persistent and to not get discouraged when something goes wrong. Building connections from the very beginning is helpful. He suggests asking questions as if you were already a member "and things will be fine". However, accept criticism if it happens.<br/><br/>One of the next actions of the onboarding team will be to collect feedback from newcomers and experienced contributors to see if they agree on the ideas and processes introduced so far.<br/><br/>[86]Comments (none posted)<br/><br/>[87]Sharing and archiving data sets with Dat<br/><br/>August 27, 2018<br/><br/>This article was contributed by Antoine Beaupré<br/><br/>[88]Dat is a new peer-to-peer protocol that uses some of the concepts of [89]BitTorrent and Git. Dat primarily targets researchers and open-data activists as it is a great tool for sharing, archiving, and cataloging large data sets. But it can also be used to implement decentralized web applications in a novel way.<br/><br/>Dat quick primer<br/><br/>Dat is written in JavaScript, so it can be installed with npm , but there are [90]standalone binary builds and a [91]desktop application (as an AppImage). An [92]online viewer can be used to inspect data for those who do not want to install arbitrary binaries on their computers.<br/><br/>The command-line application allows basic operations like downloading existing data sets and sharing your own. Dat uses a 32-byte hex string that is an [93]ed25519 public key , which is is used to discover and find content on the net. For example, this will download some sample data: $ dat clone \<br/><br/>dat://778f8d955175c92e4ced5e4f5563f69bfec0c86cc6f670352c457943666fe639 \<br/><br/>~/Downloads/dat-demo<br/><br/>Similarly, the share command is used to share content. It indexes the files in a given directory and creates a new unique address like the one above. The share command starts a server that uses multiple discovery mechanisms (currently, the [94]Mainline Distributed Hash Table (DHT), a [95]custom DNS server , and multicast DNS) to announce the content to its peers. This is how another user, armed with that public key, can download that content with dat clone or mirror the files continuously with dat sync .<br/><br/>So far, this looks a lot like BitTorrent [96]magnet links updated with 21st century cryptography. But Dat adds revisions on top of that, so modifications are automatically shared through the swarm. That is important for public data sets as those are often dynamic in nature. Revisions also make it possible to use [97]Dat as a backup system by saving the data incrementally using an [98]archiver .<br/><br/>While Dat is designed to work on larger data sets, processing them for sharing may take a while. For example, sharing the Linux kernel source code required about five minutes as Dat worked on indexing all of the files. This is comparable to the performance offered by [99]IPFS and BitTorrent. Data sets with more or larger files may take quite a bit more time.<br/><br/>One advantage that Dat has over IPFS is that it doesn't duplicate the data. When IPFS imports new data, it duplicates the files into ~/.ipfs . For collections of small files like the kernel, this is not a huge problem, but for larger files like videos or music, it's a significant limitation. IPFS eventually implemented a solution to this [100]problem in the form of the experimental [101]filestore feature , but it's not enabled by default. Even with that feature enabled, though, changes to data sets are not automatically tracked. In comparison, Dat operation on dynamic data feels much lighter. The downside is that each set needs its own dat share process.<br/><br/>Like any peer-to-peer system, Dat needs at least one peer to stay online to offer the content, which is impractical for mobile devices. Hosting providers like [102]Hashbase (which is a [103]pinning service in Dat jargon) can help users keep content online without running their own [104]server . The closest parallel in the traditional web ecosystem would probably be content distribution networks (CDN) although pinning services are not necessarily geographically distributed and a CDN does not necessarily retain a complete copy of a website. [105]<br/><br/>A web browser called [106]Beaker , based on the [107]Electron framework, can access Dat content natively without going through a pinning service. Furthermore, Beaker is essential to get any of the [108]Dat applications working, as they fundamentally rely on dat:// URLs to do their magic. This means that Dat applications won't work for most users unless they install that special web browser. There is a [109]Firefox extension called " [110]dat-fox " for people who don't want to install yet another browser, but it requires installing a [111]helper program . The extension will be able to load dat:// URLs but many applications will still not work. For example, the [112]photo gallery application completely fails with dat-fox.<br/><br/>Dat-based applications look promising from a privacy point of view. Because of its peer-to-peer nature, users regain control over where their data is stored: either on their own computer, an online server, or by a trusted third party. But considering the protocol is not well established in current web browsers, I foresee difficulties in adoption of that aspect of the Dat ecosystem. Beyond that, it is rather disappointing that Dat applications cannot run natively in a web browser given that JavaScript is designed exactly for that.<br/><br/>Dat privacy<br/><br/>An advantage Dat has over other peer-to-peer protocols like BitTorrent is end-to-end encryption. I was originally concerned by the encryption design when reading the [113]academic paper [PDF] :<br/><br/>It is up to client programs to make design decisions around which discovery networks they trust. For example if a Dat client decides to use the BitTorrent DHT to discover peers, and they are searching for a publicly shared Dat key (e.g. a key cited publicly in a published scientific paper) with known contents, then because of the privacy design of the BitTorrent DHT it becomes public knowledge what key that client is searching for.<br/><br/>So in other words, to share a secret file with another user, the public key is transmitted over a secure side-channel, only to then leak during the discovery process. Fortunately, the public Dat key is not directly used during discovery as it is [114]hashed with BLAKE2B . Still, the security model of Dat assumes the public key is private, which is a rather counterintuitive concept that might upset cryptographers and confuse users who are frequently encouraged to type such strings in address bars and search engines as part of the Dat experience. There is a [115]security & privacy FAQ in the Dat documentation warning about this problem:<br/><br/>One of the key elements of Dat privacy is that the public key is never used in any discovery network. The public key is hashed, creating the discovery key. Whenever peers attempt to connect to each other, they use the discovery key.<br/><br/>Data is encrypted using the public key, so it is important that this key stays secure.<br/><br/>There are other privacy issues outlined in the document; it states that " Dat faces similar privacy risks as BitTorrent ":<br/><br/>When you download a dataset, your IP address is exposed to the users sharing that dataset. This may lead to honeypot servers collecting IP addresses, as we've seen in Bittorrent. However, with dataset sharing we can create a web of trust model where specific institutions are trusted as primary sources for datasets, diminishing the sharing of IP addresses.<br/><br/>A Dat blog post refers to this issue as [116]reader privacy and it is, indeed, a sensitive issue in peer-to-peer networks. It is how BitTorrent users are discovered and served scary verbiage from lawyers, after all. But Dat makes this a little better because, to join a swarm, you must know what you are looking for already, which means peers who can look at swarm activity only include users who know the secret public key. This works well for secret content, but for larger, public data sets, it is a real problem; it is why the Dat project has [117]avoided creating a Wikipedia mirror so far.<br/><br/>I found another privacy issue that is not documented in the security FAQ during my review of the protocol. As mentioned earlier, the [118]Dat discovery protocol routinely phones home to DNS servers operated by the Dat project. This implies that the default discovery servers (and an attacker watching over their traffic) know who is publishing or seeking content, in essence discovering the "social network" behind Dat. This discovery mechanism can be disabled in clients, but a similar privacy issue applies to the DHT as well, although that is distributed so it doesn't require trust of the Dat project itself.<br/><br/>Considering those aspects of the protocol, privacy-conscious users will probably want to use Tor or other anonymization techniques to work around those concerns.<br/><br/>The future of Dat<br/><br/>[119]Dat 2.0 was released in June 2017 with performance improvements and protocol changes. [120]Dat Enhancement Proposals (DEPs) guide the project's future development; most work is currently geared toward implementing the draft " [121]multi-writer proposal " in [122]HyperDB . Without multi-writer support, only the original publisher of a Dat can modify it. According to Joe Hand, co-executive-director of [123]Code for Science & Society (CSS) and Dat core developer, in an IRC chat, "supporting multiwriter is a big requirement for lots of folks". For example, while Dat might allow Alice to share her research results with Bob, he cannot modify or contribute back to those results. The multi-writer extension allows for Alice to assign trust to Bob so he can have write access to the data.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, the current proposal doesn't solve the " hard problems " of " conflict merges and secure key distribution ". The former will be worked out through user interface tweaks, but the latter is a classic problem that security projects have typically trouble finding solutions for—Dat is no exception. How will Alice securely trust Bob? The OpenPGP web of trust? Hexadecimal fingerprints read over the phone? Dat doesn't provide a magic solution to this problem.<br/><br/>Another thing limiting adoption is that Dat is not packaged in any distribution that I could find (although I [124]requested it in Debian ) and, considering the speed of change of the JavaScript ecosystem, this is unlikely to change any time soon. A [125]Rust implementation of the Dat protocol has started, however, which might be easier to package than the multitude of [126]Node.js modules. In terms of mobile device support, there is an experimental Android web browser with Dat support called [127]Bunsen , which somehow doesn't run on my phone. Some adventurous users have successfully run Dat in [128]Termux . I haven't found an app running on iOS at this point.<br/><br/>Even beyond platform support, distributed protocols like Dat have a tough slope to climb against the virtual monopoly of more centralized protocols, so it remains to be seen how popular those tools will be. Hand says Dat is supported by multiple non-profit organizations. Beyond CSS, [129]Blue Link Labs is working on the Beaker Browser as a self-funded startup and a grass-roots organization, [130]Digital Democracy , has contributed to the project. The [131]Internet Archive has [132]announced a collaboration between itself, CSS, and the California Digital Library to launch a pilot project to see " how members of a cooperative, decentralized network can leverage shared services to ensure data preservation while reducing storage costs and increasing replication counts ".<br/><br/>Hand said adoption in academia has been "slow but steady" and that the [133]Dat in the Lab project has helped identify areas that could help researchers adopt the project. Unfortunately, as is the case with many free-software projects, he said that "our team is definitely a bit limited on bandwidth to push for bigger adoption". Hand said that the project received a grant from [134]Mozilla Open Source Support to improve its documentation, which will be a big help.<br/><br/>Ultimately, Dat suffers from a problem common to all peer-to-peer applications, which is naming. Dat addresses are not exactly intuitive: humans do not remember strings of 64 hexadecimal characters well. For this, Dat took a [135]similar approach to IPFS by using DNS TXT records and /.well-known URL paths to bridge existing, human-readable names with Dat hashes. So this sacrifices a part of the decentralized nature of the project in favor of usability.<br/><br/>I have tested a lot of distributed protocols like Dat in the past and I am not sure Dat is a clear winner. It certainly has advantages over IPFS in terms of usability and resource usage, but the lack of packages on most platforms is a big limit to adoption for most people. This means it will be difficult to share content with my friends and family with Dat anytime soon, which would probably be my primary use case for the project. Until the protocol reaches the wider adoption that BitTorrent has seen in terms of platform support, I will probably wait before switching everything over to this promising project.<br/><br/>[136]Comments (11 posted)<br/><br/>Page editor : Jonathan Corbet<br/><br/>Inside this week's LWN.net Weekly Edition<br/><br/>[137]Briefs : OpenSSH 7.8; 4.19-rc1; Which stable?; Netdev 0x12; Bison 3.1; Quotes; ...<br/><br/>[138]Announcements : Newsletters; events; security updates; kernel patches; ...

- The annual Maintainer and Kernel Summits will be held in Vancouver, BC on November 12 to 15, in conjunction with the Linux Plumbers Conference. The program committee is looking for topics for both summits; read on for details on how to submit ideas and, perhaps, get an invitation to the Maintainer Summit.<br/><br/>From :<br/><br/>"Theodore Y.

The Maintainer's summit will be held on<br/><br/>Monday, November 12th, in Vancouver, immediately before the Linux<br/><br/>Plumber's Conference (LPC) November 13th -- 15th.<br/><br/>For the past few years, before 2017, we've scheduled mostly management<br/><br/>and development process issues on the first day. We then opened up<br/><br/>the second day of the Kernel Summit to all attendees of the conference<br/><br/>with which the Kernel Summit has been colocated, and called it the<br/><br/>"Open Technical Day". This is something that just made sense in order<br/><br/>to assure that all of the necessary people needed to discuss a<br/><br/>particular technical issue could be in the room.<br/><br/>Starting last year in Prague, we took the next logical step, and split<br/><br/>the Kernel Summit in two. The "Maintainer's Summit" is an<br/><br/>invite-only, half-day event, where the primary focus will be process<br/><br/>issues of Linux Kernel Development. It will be limited to 30 invitees<br/><br/>and a handful of sponsored attendees. This makes it smaller than the<br/><br/>first few kernel summits (which were limited to around 50 attendees).<br/><br/>The "Kernel Summit" is now organized as a track which is run in<br/><br/>parallel with the other tracks at the Linux Plumber's Conference, and<br/><br/>is open to all registered attendees of Plumbers. Much as how we<br/><br/>organized the Kernel Summit "open technical day" in 2016 in Santa Fe,<br/><br/>the Kernel Summit schedule will be synchronized with the other tracks<br/><br/>at the Plumber's Conference, and it will be open to all registered<br/><br/>Plumber's attendees.<br/><br/>Linus has suggested the following ten people as the core of the people<br/><br/>he would like invited to the Maintainer's Summit, which was calculated<br/><br/>from statistics from his git tree.<br/><br/>David Miller<br/><br/>Dave Airlie<br/><br/>Greg KH<br/><br/>Arnd Bergmann<br/><br/>Ingo Molnar<br/><br/>Mauro Carvalho Chehab<br/><br/>Takashi Iwai<br/><br/>Thomas Gleixner<br/><br/>Andrew Morton<br/><br/>Olof Johansson<br/><br/>As we did last year, there will be a mini-program committee that will<br/><br/>be pick enough names to bring the total number of 30 for the<br/><br/>Maintainer's Summit. That program committee will consist of Arnd<br/><br/>Bergmann, Thomas Gleixner, Greg KH, Paul McKenney, and Ted Ts'o.<br/><br/>We will use the rest of names on the list generated by Linus's script<br/><br/>as a starting point of people to be considered. People who suggest<br/><br/>topics that should be discussed on the Maintainer's summit will also<br/><br/>be added to the list. To make topic suggestions for the Maintainer's<br/><br/>Summit, please send e-mail to the ksummit-discuss list with a subject<br/><br/>prefix of [MAINTAINERS SUMMIT].<br/><br/>The other job of the program committee will be to organize the program<br/><br/>for the Kernel Summit. The goal of the Kernel Summit track will be to<br/><br/>provide a forum to discuss specific technical issues that would be<br/><br/>easier to resolve in person than over e-mail. The program committee<br/><br/>will also consider "information sharing" topics if they are clearly of<br/><br/>interest to the wider development community (i.e., advanced training<br/><br/>in topics that would be useful to kernel developers).<br/><br/>To suggest a topic for the Kernel Summit, please tag your e-mail with<br/><br/>[TECH TOPIC].

<div class='comment_content'><p></p><p>This is no surprise to me. Most of the open source software improvements that might help a competitor are too general in nature to really be giving the other guys a competitive advantage.</p><p></p><p>For instance, if Lyft contributed Linux kernel or PHP or Apache or whatever fixes, the benefit to Lyft of having that improved expertise far exceeds the general benefit to competitor Uber.</p><p></p></div>

<div class='comment_content'><p></p><p>Even having to debate it seems so farcical. If you're worried about people who "do the same thing", the software they use is not the main differentiator. How your company is organized, how you treat your people and your customers, how you organized projects etc are huge, and software is ultimately minor. Fixes and changes to software? Incredibly minor.</p><p></p></div>

L'homme, caché notamment sous une couverture et un transat, présentait, quant à lui, des blessures faites à la hache.<br/><br/><h2>Vagabond espagnol</h2><br/><br/>L'enquête a permis de remonter à un vagabond âgé d'une soixantaine d'années et condamné à plusieurs reprises notamment pour vol en Espagne. L'homme, qui occupait un bâtiment désaffecté de Montélimar, a été interpellé et écroué.<br/><br/><h2>ADN retrouvé</h2><br/><br/>Selon le procureur, l'ADN du vagabond - ainsi que celui des deux victimes - a été retrouvé sur un tesson de bouteille et une hache, laquelle était cachée sous des feuilles dans une remise contiguë à la maison. Les éléments recueillis "permettent d'être catégorique entre ces faits et cet auteur unique", a assuré le procureur. Le suspect, qui conteste les faits, a été mis en examen (inculpé) pour meurtres et pourrait l'être pour vol prochainement si ce mobile se confirmait.<br/><br/><h2>"Quelqu'un de très violent"</h2><br/><br/>Reste à expliquer le déchaînement de violences. "On sait que c'est quelqu'un de violent", qui reste "très alerte", un "marcheur, capable de faire plusieurs dizaines de kilomètres par jour" avec son charriot, a répondu le procureur qui évoque des condamnations lourdes en Espagne que la justice française est en train de vérifier.

Comme l'a confirmé le Diable, Julen Lopetegui n'a pas établi une hiérarchie définitive entre les deux gardiens.<br/><br/>2018 est idyllique pour Courtois. En plus d'avoir été élu gardien de l'année suite à une Coupe du monde étincelante, le Diable a réalisé son rêve en rejoignant le Real Madrid. Mais en Espagne, l'ancien portier de Chelsea se retrouve en concurrence avec Keylor Navas, trois fois vainqueur de la Ligue des Champions sous le maillot blanc.<br/><br/>"Le coach prend ses décisions, rien n'a été convenu. Il n'y a pas de rotation fixée ou quelque chose comme ça. Je fais de mon mieux à l'entraînement pour montrer que je suis toujours prêt. Pour le coach et l'équipe, c'est bien sûr une situation de luxe. La compétition est toujours saine et cela ne me pose aucun problème", a affirmé Courtois à VTM Nieuws.<br/><br/><h2>"Je veux gagner la Ligue des Champions et faire encore mieux en équipe nationale"</h2><br/><br/>Malgré un temps de jeu parfois incomplet, le gardien des Diables ne regrette absolument pas son choix estival. Au sein de la Maison Blanche, il compte bien continuer de glaner des trophées. "Le prix FIFA a une belle place dans ma chambre, mais il y a tellement de choses que je veux gagner. Collectivement, je veux gagner la Ligue des Champions et je veux faire encore mieux avec l'équipe nationale. Mon désir de toujours décrocher des prix est loin d'être comblé", a-t-il poursuivi.<br/><br/>Présent en conférence de presse, l'entraîneur madrilène Julen Lopetegui a brièvement évoqué la concurrence à ce poste clé: "La gestion est très simple quand nous avons de bonnes solutions à disposition, avec des gardiens qui ont une attitude fantastique, que ce soit Keylor, Thibaut ou Kiko Casilla."<br/><br/>Depuis le début de saison, Lopetegui alterne entre ses deux éléments. Courtois a ainsi gardé à trois reprises les cages des Merengue, alors que Navas compte quatre titularisations, dont le choc en Ligue des Champions face à la Roma, et la Supercoupe d'Europe contre l'Atletico.

Son avocate a indiqué après l'appel qu'elle allait étudier un éventuel recours auprès de la Cour suprême.<br/><br/><h2>"Préméditation minitieuse"</h2><br/><br/>La Haute cour a motivé sa décision par le caractère "particulièrement brutal" du crime et "les circonstances aggravantes" que constitue selon elle sa "préméditation minutieuse". "Il n'y a guère de peine trop sévère pour cet homme", a déclaré à l'issue de l'audience le procureur Kristian Kirk.<br/><br/><h2>Rappel des faits</h2><br/><br/>Le 10 août 2017, Peter Madsen avait embarqué dans son submersible artisanal Kim Wall, 30 ans, qui projetait d'écrire un reportage sur ses désirs de conquête du ciel et des fonds marins. Elle avait été portée disparue dans la nuit par son compagnon qui a assisté au procès en appel et son corps avait ensuite été retrouvé en mer, démembré. L'autopsie avance l'hypothèse d'un étouffement ou d'un égorgement précédé de sévices sexuels mais la cause exacte du décès n'a pu être établie.<br/><br/><h2>Multiples blessures</h2><br/><br/>De multiples blessures - 14 - ont été identifiées dans et autour des parties génitales de la jeune femme. En outre, le parquet a invoqué les outils inutiles sur un sous-marin embarqués par l'accusé peu de temps avant les faits, dont une scie à bois, des sangles de valise et un tournevis affûté de 50 cm de long.<br/><br/><h2>Rappel: Madsen "désolé"</h2><br/><br/>"Je suis terriblement triste pour les proches de Kim de ce qui s'est passé", avait déclaré Peter Madsen à la clôture de l'audience, utilisant un adjectif qui en danois peut également signifier "désolé". Le procureur Kristian Kirk avait requis la prison à vie. "Quand je regarde Peter Madsen (...) je ne vois pas de raison pour (lui infliger) une peine plus faible que la perpétuité". Selon lui, la préméditation et la nature des violences qui lui sont reprochées justifiaient son enfermement à vie.<br/><br/><h2>"Meurtrier sexuel cynique"</h2><br/><br/>"Nous parlons d'un meurtrier sexuel cynique, pervers et calculateur et pour cette raison je ne pense pas qu'il y ait une marge d'hésitation", avait souligné M. Kirk. "Par défaut, tous les meurtres sont cyniques, ce n'est pas propre à cette affaire", avait rétorqué l'avocate de Peter Madsen, Betina Hald Engmark. "La défense est d'avis que le bon niveau de peine se situe entre 14 et 16 ans", avait-elle martelé lors de sa plaidoirie.

- Par: rédaction<br/><br/>26/09/18 - 16h46 Source: AFP © epa.<br/><br/>ISRAËL/PALESTINE Le président américain Donald Trump s'est déclaré mercredi favorable pour la première fois à une solution à deux Etats dans le conflit israélo-palestinien, promettant de présenter un plan de paix pour la région "dans les deux, trois ou quatre mois".<br/><br/>"Je pense vraiment que quelque chose va se passer. C'est mon rêve d'y parvenir avant la fin de mon premier mandat", en janvier 2021, a-t-il lancé devant la presse au début d'une rencontre avec le Premier ministre israélien Benjamin Netanyahu.<br/><br/><h2>Reprendre les négociations</h2><br/><br/>S'exprimant en marge de l'Assemblée générale annuelle de l'ONU à New York, il s'est dit convaincu "à 100%" que les Palestiniens, qui ont gelé tout contact avec l'administration américaine depuis qu'elle a reconnu Jérusalem comme capitale d'Israël fin 2017, "reviendront à la table des négociations".<br/><br/><h2>"J'aime bien la solution à deux États"</h2><br/><br/>"J'aime bien la solution à deux Etats", "je pense que c'est ce qui marche mieux, c'est mon sentiment", a ajouté le président Trump, sans préciser si c'est ce que proposera le plan de paix concocté depuis de longs mois dans le plus grand secret par une petite équipe menée par son gendre et conseiller Jared Kushner.<br/><br/><h2>Effet d'annonce sans lendemain?</h2><br/><br/>L'annonce de cette proposition américaine, censée permettre d'aboutir à "l'accord ultime" entre Israéliens et Palestiniens d'après la formule de Donald Trump, a été reportée à plusieurs reprises. Jusqu'ici, le président républicain s'était gardé de soutenir clairement la solution à deux Etats, contrairement à ses prédécesseurs des deux bords politiques et à la communauté internationale.<br/><br/>La ligne officielle de l'administration Trump consistait jusqu'ici à soutenir une solution qui aurait la faveur des deux camps israélien et palestinien, sans pousser ni rejeter les deux Etats.

Jusqu'ici, le président républicain s'était gardé de soutenir clairement la solution à deux Etats, contrairement à ses prédécesseurs des deux bords politiques et à la communauté internationale.<br/><br/>La ligne officielle de l'administration Trump consistait jusqu'ici à soutenir une solution qui aurait la faveur des deux camps israélien et palestinien, sans pousser ni rejeter les deux Etats.

Campenaerts, 26 ans, offre ainsi à la Belgique sa première médaille dans cette épreuve ajoutée au programme des Mondiaux en 1994. Le titre mondial est revenu à Rohan Dennis. L'Australien a bouclé les 52,2 km de course en 1h03:02.57. Le Néerlandais Tom Dumoulin, tenant du titre, a pris l'argent.<br/><br/>Campenaerts a mis 1h04:24.19 pour terminer son parcours, 1:21.62 de plus que Dennis, dominateur de l'épreuve. Campenaerts a échoué à seulement 53 centièmes de seconde de l'argent, revenu à Dumoulin.<br/><br/>Dennis, 28 ans, s'offre son premier titre mondial dans cette épreuve.<br/><br/>Le chrono se disputait sur une distance de 52,2 km. Les 30 premiers kilomètres du parcours étaient plats, avec peu de courbes. Puis venait le Gnadenwald, une côte de 4,9 kilomètres à du 7,1% de moyenne avec des passages à 13 et 14 %.<br/><br/>Campenaerts, double champion d'Europe en titre visait une place dans le top-6 afin d'égaler la meilleure performance belge dans cette épreuve, la sixième place obtenue par Nico Emonds (1994), Leif Hoste (2001) et Stijn Devolder (2008).<br/><br/><h2>Sur le podium aux côtés de deux grands spécialistes</h2><br/><br/>Le coureur de Lotto Soudal a fait mieux que ça sur le parcours tyrolien. Quatrième au premier pointage après 16 km, à 15.25 de Dennis, il a grimpé d'un place au deuxième passage intermédiaire (35 km), à 1:12.24 de l'Australien. A ce moment-là, Campenaerts comptait déjà 31 secondes d'avance sur le quatrième, le Polonais Michal Kwiatkowski et pouvait donc rêver d'une médaille. Le deuxième, Dumoulin, ne pointait qu'à 12 secondes.<br/><br/>Alors que Dennis poursuivait sa domination, Campenaerts négociait mieux que Dumoulin la deuxième partie plus descendante. Il reprenait 11 secondes au Néerlandais, mais ne parvenait pas à grappiller une place. C'est donc sur la troisième marche du podium que Campenaerts est monté, aux côtés de deux grands spécialistes, Dennis, intouchable mercredi, et Dumoulin.<br/><br/>Laurens de Plus, l'autre Belge engagé, a dû se contenter de la 50e place, à 8:14.20 du vainqueur.<br/><br/>Les épreuves contre la montre s'achèvent à Innsbruck pour faire place aux épreuves en ligne à partir de jeudi. Le bilan belge est impressionnant, avec également le titre mondial remporté par le junior Remco Evenepoel et l'argent de l'espoir Brent Van Moer. En outre, le contre-la-montre par équipes a été remporté par la formation belge Quick-Step Floors.

La mesure s'inscrit en complément des indemnisations déjà prévues pour compenser l'abattage préventif de 4.000 porcs sains à l'intérieur du périmètre.<br/><br/>Les opérateurs situés dans la zone sont reconnus comme "secteur en crise" par le fédéral. Cela implique que leurs cotisations sociales puissent être adaptées en fonction de leur situation économique.<br/><br/>Les éleveurs pourront ainsi demander un ajustement, une dispense ou un report de paiement de leurs cotisations avec possibilité d'étaler ce paiement sans majoration ni perte des droits. Ces options ne s'excluent pas nécessairement l'une l'autre: un éleveur peut demander un ajustement ou un étalement avant de se rendre compte qu'il aura finalement besoin d'une dispense, précise le cabinet du ministre.<br/><br/>Les exploitants concernés sont invités à prendre contact dans les prochaines semaines avec leurs caisses d'assurances sociales. En cas de demande de dispense, M. Ducarme désire que les caisses d'assurances sociales gèlent le recouvrement de ces cotisations le temps que l'Institut national d'assurances sociales pour travailleurs indépendants (Inasti) statue.<br/><br/><h2>"Un soutien concret au secteur"</h2><br/><br/>"Nous sommes conscients que la situation de ces opérateurs est particulièrement difficile", a commenté le ministre de l'Agriculture. "Avec ces mesures, nous souhaitons apporter un soutien concret au secteur."<br/><br/>Par ailleurs, les éleveurs de la zone contaminée pourront bénéficier du chômage temporaire pour force majeure, a confirmé au cabinet de M.

Si ces personnages perturbés l'attirent tellement, c'est parce que sa propre histoire est chargée de moments tragiques.<br/><br/><h2>Une secte</h2><br/><br/>La mère du jeune Joaquin a rencontré son père alors qu'il faisait de l'auto-stop. A deux, ils ont sillonné les Etats-Unis et l'Amérique du Sud pour diffuser les messages des "Enfants de Dieu", un culte religieux. Ils ont eu cinq enfants et leur ont donné des nom bibliques comme Jochebed et Amram.<br/><br/>Mais quand Joaquin a eu trois ans, ses parents ont commencé à avoir des doutes sur l'organisation. La presse a révélé que le culte "les Enfants de Dieu" encourageait le sexe en groupe et l'inceste. River, le frère ainé de Joaquin, raconte d'ailleurs avoir perdu sa virginité à l'âge de quatre ans.<br/><br/><h2>La survie</h2><br/><br/>Après avoir fui la secte, les parents de Joaquin ont voulu symboliser ce nouveau départ en changeant de nom. C'est depuis lors que la famille porte le nom de "Phoenix". Tous les enfants ont changé de prénoms pour être plus proches de la nature. Joaquin a hérité de celui de "Leaf", la feuille. Ils optent à cette époque pour un régime végétalien.<br/><br/>En Floride, la famille sombre dans la pauvreté et le petit Leaf doit mendier dans la rue avec sa sœur Rain et son frère River. C'est pourtant là qu'ils se font remarquer. River incarne le jeune Indie dans Indiana Jones. Joaquin enchaine les publicités et les séries. A 15 ans, Joaquin ne supporte pas le succès et part voyager en Amérique du Sud.<br/><br/><h2>L'overdose de son frère</h2><br/><br/>Quand Joaquin revient à Los Angeles, en 1993, il se rend avec sa sœur Rain dans le tristement célèbre Viper Room, le club de Johnny Depp. River a 23 ans, il s'apprête à donner un concert mais on lui offre un verre, rempli de drogues. Lui, qui a un style de vie irréprochable, s'effondre immédiatement et meurt devant les yeux de son frère et de sa sœur. Encore aujourd'hui, Joaquin Phoenix refuse de parler de ce jour tragique et déteste les médias pour la manière dont ils essayeront alors de s'immiscer dans leurs vies.<br/><br/><h2>Réclusion</h2><br/><br/>Depuis, Joaquin Phoenix alterne entre les périodes de succès où il interprète des rôles sombres et les périodes de réclusion. Il évite les fêtes d'Hollywood et préfère cultiver ses légumes dans son jardin. L'acteur vit dans une maison modeste et fréquente peu de monde. Après le film Walk The Line, il s'inscrit dans une cure de désintoxication à l'alcool. Il déclare avoir développé son addiction "par ennui".<br/><br/>A 43 ans, l'acteur a commencé le tournage du nouveau Joker. On l'y verra en acteur raté des années 1980, qui se tourne vers "le crime et le chaos". Ce film extrêmement attendu ne lui donnera pas la vie tranquille qu'il attend mais jouer un personnage dérangé semble lui plaire.

Ses médecins estiment qu'il a "très vraisemblablement" été victime d'un empoisonnement.<br/><br/><h2>"Je veux retourner en Russie"</h2><br/><br/>"Je vais bien à nouveau, j'espère sortir dès que possible. Et je veux retourner en Russie", a-t-il dit dans une interview diffusée mercredi par le quotidien populaire allemand Bild. Il affirme se souvenir "à peine de ce qui lui est arrivé". Piotr Verzilov est l'un des quatre membres des Pussy Riot qui s'étaient introduits sur le terrain pendant la finale de la Coupe du monde de football en Russie en juillet, portant des uniformes de la police.<br/><br/>Il est également le fondateur du site internet Mediazona, qui informe notamment sur les procès des défenseurs des droits de l'homme en Russie.<br/><br/><h2>"Deux raisons possibles"</h2><br/><br/>"Il y a deux raisons possibles pour lesquelles les services secrets russes pourraient m'avoir empoisonné: d'une part, l'action de la finale de la Coupe du Monde, qui les a embarrassés, et d'autre part, mes liens avec les trois journalistes russes assassinés en Afrique", explique le militant dans Bild.<br/><br/><h2>Tués par balles en Centrafrique</h2><br/><br/>Ces trois journalistes ont été tués par balles le 30 juillet en Centrafrique où ils enquêtaient sur un groupe occulte de mercenaires russes, pour le compte d'un média fondé par l'adversaire du Kremlin Mikhail Khodorkovsky. M. Verzilov avait travaillé avec un de ces journalistes. "Je voulais et je veux faire une enquête sur ce qui est arrivé aux trois journalistes. C'est peut-être pour ça que les services secrets ont essayé de m'empoisonner. Je pense qu'il est plus probable qu'il s'agisse de ça que d'un match de Coupe du Monde", fait valoir le Pussy Riot.<br/><br/><h2>Renseignements russes</h2><br/><br/>"Je crois fermement que ce sont les services de renseignements russes qui sont à l'origine de mon empoisonnement, peut-être le GRU", le renseignement militaire, précise M. Verzilov. Selon lui, "l'empoisonnement était si professionnel qu'on ne peut en conclure autrement". "Cela ne m'a pas pris plusieurs jours avant de remarquer quelque chose, mais ça a été immédiatement aigu", décrit-il.<br/><br/><h2>Affaire Skripal</h2><br/><br/>Son hospitalisation est intervenue à un moment où l'affaire Skripal envenimait à nouveau les relations entre les Occidentaux et Moscou. Le gouvernement britannique accuse deux personnes qu'il présente comme des agents du renseignement militaire russe (GRU) d'avoir empoisonné en mars Sergueï Skripal et sa fille à Salisbury en Angleterre.<br/><br/>Ces accusations sont rejetées par la Russie.

Specifically, they will be made by exactly two companies, [1]Samsung [samsungfoundry.com] and [2]TSMC [tsmc.com], with GlobalFoundries' recent announcement that it is [3]stopping development of its 7nm process [anandtech.com].

With the capital cost of each new-generation fab reaching $20 billion, it's only a matter of time until Intel -- which has only its internal product base of chip designs to fill its fabs, while Samsung and TSMC make chips for the entire industry -- can no longer afford the move to the next generation.</p><p>If the rest of the semiconductor industry (or the US DoD) wants high-performance computer chips, there's now nowhere to go except Samsung and TSMC. It will be interesting to see what politicians do when they realize that the best digital chips can no longer be manufactured in the US. The choice seems to be either (1) have our economy -- everything from cell phones to missiles -- dependent on chips manufactured overseas, or (2) subsidize Intel's foundry business and the semiconductor equipment manufacturers to the tune of tens of $billions, just to keep a US source of high-performance semiconductors.</p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p>[1] https://www.samsungfoundry.com/foundry/homepage.do</p><p>[2] http://www.tsmc.com/english/default.htm</p><p>[3] https://www.anandtech.com/show/13277/globalfoundries-stops-all-7nm-development</p><p>[4] https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/foundry/overview.html</p></div>

Some websites (important ones) wouldn't load properly. Emails sent would bounce or simply never reach their destination. After looking at the problem I found that my IP was on some minor blacklists. I stopped the relay and after 2 days I was off the blacklists. Hence my question, if running a simple relay gets you blacklisted, what does running an exit point does to your other internet usage from that IP ? Who can afford separate IPs besides institutions ?

Using the page you link to, the most useful comparison would be the single-handed records, and the one from 1987 which was about 11.5 days was in a 26 meter hull! And this is the smallest vessel on the list. You are probably not going to get a 2 meter vessel to tear along at an average speed of 7.5 m/sec which would be needed for that 11.5 day crossing.</p></div>

You can't talk to it (at least you're not supposed to--when aggravated, I've been know to do so, and not kindly). But try to decipher what's on that screen. I claim that printers are not any easier to use than they were in 1984 (which is when I got my first dot matrix printer). You (ok, I) *still* can't figure out what's wrong with them, despite the screen.</p></div>

There's only so many smart people, dumb people and mediocre people don't make good coders. Some of the above-average ones might make the cut as maintenance coders or some incredibly soul-crushing AGILE environment where they don't actually have to think, but for the most part any programming position of note requires a 150+ IQ to do even moderately well.</p></div>

<div class='comment_content'><p></p><p>I've quit one job and refused two others because of open offices. The two I refused were absolutely flabbergasted by my refusal. They literally could not understand why anyone wouldn't want to be in an open office space surrounded on 3.8 sides by glass-walled manager offices, loud ugly marketing girls, and a bunch of H1B dudes who couldn't be bothered to wear deodorant. That place (MX Logic) had the worst looking office I've ever seen. One of them offered me the job on the spot after the interview and I was already shutting them down and refusing it before they even got started. I told them there is about a zero percent chance of getting anyone really talented to take the gig, because they had this ridiculous noisy slave pit thing going. I nearly left before I even *did* the interview I was so disgusted with the place. The hiring manager was (of course) offended, but he was also clueless. About a year after that interview I had a guy come up to me at the local Maker Space who was one of the "technical resources" for the company during the interview (quiet guy in the back of the room). He told me "My god was I cheering when you refused them over the goddamn open workspace idiocy. My boss was upset over that for weeks. They still talk about it during the hiring process and argue about it."</p></div>

<div class='comment_content'><p></p><p>Facebook has grown because it offered the best social platform for users. The point of social platforms is to connect with everyone else. Fragmentation means people needing to belong to and check multiple platforms. Trying to force competition won't solve any user issues. However, once Facebook stops providing a compelling service, people will move on their own. The same as they gave up MySpace and the same as they rejected Google+. The market chose Facebook and will purge it when time comes.</p><p>The same with Google. There were plenty of entrenched search services when Google came to be. Users chose it because it was better. The old search services died because they didn't evolve. If Google stops being the best fit option, people will go somewhere else. They already have choices like Bing and Duck Duck Go. As the service is free, people are choosing based on functionality, not on price. Those that don't like the privacy price of Google are opting for other services. You can't just declare another search service is required and then force the public to use it so that you can claim to have multiple services with comparable market share.</p><p>If people were given a choice of all you can eat steak or beets at equal cost, odds are that the majority would choose steak. When you remove cost and scarcity, the premium option will dominate. Digital services don't have scarcity like physical products do. It's a different economy.</p></div>

If the main goal for voting security is maintaining the people's confidence in an election, the only system that will meet that standard is a system where people are actually keeping an eye on one another. And I mean physically watching one another. And that's the system we had in place before the advent of voting machines and election software. You had a room full of election judges from both sides, and they sat side-by-side checking in voters as they approached the voting booth and physically watched them put the ballot in the box. When the votes were counted, there was a whole bunch of people from both parties standing around keeping a close eye. When the ballots were sent for storage, one person from each party rode in the truck to drop them off after sealing the container - together - and signing off.</p><p>It was trust, but verify. Was it possible to jigger with an election like that? Of course. But you had a list of names of people you could hold accountable at every step in the process. Electronic voting will never, ever be trusted. That is the effect of transparency.</p></div>

So it's actually surprising to hear that there's not internet access (via cell towers) there, because in general even the most remote places here have cell access. When Bárðarbunga erupted, deep in the highlands, the eruption was livestreamed. And there's a lot more people in Vestfirðir then in the highlands!</p><p>This would of course be more about visitors than residents, given that there's no permanent residents in Hornstrandir. And in some ways I can sympathize. For example, there's always a lot of opposition to improving the highland roads because we don't want to have more cars driving through and tons of people flooding in, and driving really fast on some paved road would totally change the experience of going into the highlands... it would just turn into a set of "sites to see" rather than a journey. The effect of the isolation on you can really be profound. You feel like a person exploring Mars - so tiny in an endless empty expanse, completely devoid of any signs of human civilization except the half-bulldozed-out "road" you take, the endless travel punctured by rushes of adrenaline as you try to ford a river or trying to avoid ruining your car crossing a lava field. And people who know that experience generally don't want to see it altered. So I imagine it's the same thing for Hornstrandir. The difference being, as previously mentioned, in much of the highlands there's cell coverage. At least as far as I know, when I go out I'm not checking Facebook all the time. ;) But I don't recall any meaningful loss of coverage events.</p><p>ED: Just checked [1]a map [wp.com] from my cell provider. Looks like most of Hornstrandir is indeed marked in white (no coverage), while most of the highlands is light blue (2G) or in some places blue (3G) - even a good chunk of Vatnajökull (largest glacier in Europe).</p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p>[1] https://i2.wp.com/www.icelandnorthernlightshq.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Screen-Shot-2015-06-27-at-09.57.16.png?ssl=1</p></div>

I didn't realize it was north of the southern tip of Greenland. That could well be outside the range of satellite Internet, depending on the orbits involved. I have no idea what the plans are.</p></div>

<div class='comment_content'><p></p><p>Seem to remember there was active satellite links in Resolute, Nvt.(74deg/N), so I don't think that's a problem. The real problem was the astronomical cost of those links, short of a stationary polar orbit satellite there is no real way to keep it cheap. So they've been building fiber as a replacement since 2012ish for the far north remote communities at least here in Canada. I think Resolute was finished in 2016ish or so.</p></div>

<div class='comment_content'><p></p><p>I spend a lot of time in the woods of British Columbia, Canada. There is no celphone coverage in probably 95% of our woods/wilderness. I don't ask for cel towers, I carry a Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) for safety. If it is that important to someone to be connected, let them use satellite. We don't need more cel coverage for narcisists.</p></div>
