Tbh I am using /e/OS as my daily driver and I fully agree, it just works. Bonus points for the Nextcloud integration which I can tie to my self-hosted Nextcloud instance. I do not understand all the negativity, I think it is a sol

Anyone can propose a devroom for FOSDEM, I hope you'll do it next year :)

My experience was good: on my way in Paris -> Brussels arrived 10min early, and on my way out Brussels -> Paris I had ~15min delay (apparently because Police had to board the train before Brussels).

I'm self-hosting for 17 years and counting. In my opinion, the pragmatic solution I use is: 1) use a specialized distribution (I use yunohost but there are others). This makes configuring SPF, DKIM, TLS and more a breeze 2) use a reput

Yep, AI scrapers have been breaking our open-source project gerrit instance hosted at Linux Network Foundation. Why this is the case while web-crawlers have been scrapping the web for the last 30 years is a mystery to me. This should be a s

I still use my Thinkpad x61 as my daily driver (typing on it right now) and I don't feel most of the "severe limitations" you are listing. I think some are wrong (eg. I use Dual-band AC wifi and BT4.0 wifi card in mine, and h

In a similar vein, the "Confrérie des Charitables de Saint-Éloi" was founded in Béthune (France) in 1188 during a plague epidemy and is still active today. Edit: spelling

VPP dev here. Yes, we had support for OpenSuse and RHEL/CentOS in the past, but distro support vanished. We're a small team so we need to focus (note: for OpenSuse it's still maintained by a volunteer, just not in CI/CD)

VPP dev here. Our perf tests for Intel run in CSIT lab consistently shows a perf benefit of 10%-20% since Haswell I believe, so in our typical VPP deployment we usually map 2 VPP workers (dataplane threads) to both hyperthreads of the same

My guess is kernel needs to know the current directory of a process so that when said process tries to open a file without an absolute path (eg. just "file.txt" and not "/tmp/file.txt"), it can open "$CWD&

Also, the claims they make in the paper is inaccurate relative to VPP: they claim VPP uses "overlay/convert" method, which is true for DPDK drivers, but we also maintain native drivers for NIC we care about (eg. Intel's)

The approach is interesting but I'm afraid that the benchmarking is bogus, as it's usually the case is in this kind of papers. Part of the problem I think is that they have to compare to other existing solutions (click, VPP etc) o

Most packets follows the same nodes in the graph. You have some divergence (eg. ARP packets vs IP packets to forward), but the bulk of the traffic does not. So typically the initial batch of packets might be split in 2 with a small "co

Batching packets bring several benefits: - amortizing cache misses are you mentioned - better use of out-of-order, superscalar processors: by processing multiple independent packets in parallel, the processor can fill more execution

Not that surprising, given this was already extensively documented in the 2000's (so already widely known by then) with iSCSI and such, see https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3385 for example.

Looking at RFC1812, Martian packets [1] seems to be reserved addresses only. What you're talking about is referred to as source address validation [2] also known as strict reverse path forwarding (RPF) [3]. [1] https://datat

Very good idea! And I love bloom filter too (and their more modern successor cuckoo filter) but I'd challenge the usecase you mention though: 1 million IPv4 is 4MB, and 16MB for IPv6. That's tiny, you're better off using some
