DaemonFCI used Solaris on actual hardware, which is one of the few non-GNU/Linux systems I've actually done that with.Oct 03 00:36
DaemonFCWith OpenSolaris, I had some hopes that there'd be another good option for operating systems.Oct 03 00:37
DaemonFCThere's actually a criticism of "Linux" page on Wikipedia.Oct 03 00:37

DaemonFCWell, the OS source was Free and Open Source, but you'd have to modify it to build with a Free compiler.Oct 03 00:55
DaemonFCOtherwise, you needed a proprietary one from Sun. Which Oracle no longer updates.Oct 03 00:55
DaemonFCThat forced the OpenIndiana/IllumOS people to get it building with a recent copy of GCC.Oct 03 00:55
DaemonFCIf you need a Solaris system, I'd definitely recommend an IllumOS distribution over dealing with Oracle though.Oct 03 00:56

DaemonFCIt should be reasonably compatible with where Solaris diverged from it, and Oracle has mostly mothballed things except to merge in GNOME 3 and a few other bits.Oct 03 00:56
DaemonFCThe version of ZFS is different between IllumOS, ZFS on Linux, and Oracle Solaris 11.Oct 03 00:57
DaemonFCIf you try mounting the file system as anything but read only, you're probably looking at data corruption if you try sharing between them.Oct 03 00:58

DaemonFCYou wouldn't want to use it.Oct 03 13:01
DaemonFCUnless it's some el cheapo card, and I don't think Nvidia does too much of that anymore. Used to shove some integrated graphics in cheap Walmart computers back when there was no processor graphics section on the CPU.Oct 03 13:02
DaemonFCBack then, the Nvidia blob didn't even always work correctly.Oct 03 13:02
DaemonFCI had this one, an eMachines system, and the Nvidia blob _kind_ of worked. It detected it as the wrong model number and it was glitchy. I ended up buying an entry level Nvidia card off Newegg and plugging it into the PCI port.Oct 03 13:03
DaemonFCA while later, Newegg was dumping a bunch of obsolete processors at fire sale prices and I managed to step up to a CPU that was about 40% faster than that wimpy Sempron, and it only set me back $15 including shipping.Oct 03 13:04

DaemonFCI think that languages that change in a way where older valid code doesn't even compile anymore are not worth looking at.Oct 03 13:36
DaemonFCC code may break in a new compiler if there are bugs in the new compiler or because the old compiler was letting you get away with something it shouldn't have. Those are usually why C can break.Oct 03 13:36
DaemonFCIf you were writing valid C, and barring compiler bugs, it shouldn't just break.Oct 03 13:37

schestowitz-TRnot the same as something breaking for "innovation"Oct 03 13:37
DaemonFCRight, it does, and GCC has been pretty forgiving of C bugs. Too forgiving.Oct 03 13:37
DaemonFCThe fact that Xorg even compiles is proof of that.Oct 03 13:38
schestowitz-TRcatching more bugs is a featureOct 03 13:38
schestowitz-TRbut that feature is not a bugOct 03 13:38
DaemonFCInstead of fixing the bugs that GCC warns on, many people just silence the warnings.Oct 03 13:38
DaemonFCAnd that's what happened with over 1,000 bugs in X11 a few years back.Oct 03 13:38
DaemonFCThe only thing that catches some people's attention is if you just go ahead and refuse to compile their program.Oct 03 13:39

DaemonFCThe GCC project roasted Red Hat over that one time they released a broken beta version of GCC. That was funny.Oct 03 13:43
DaemonFCAnd it was just as much the fault of the GCC project as Red Hat's, honestly.Oct 03 13:43
schestowitz-TRSUSE is also involved heavilyOct 03 13:44
DaemonFCThey were taking forever to get the release out and so Red Hat just goes fuck this, and built a development copy.Oct 03 13:44
DaemonFCschestowitz-TR, I tried FlightGear.Oct 03 13:44
DaemonFCThe Flatpak was a problem, actually.Oct 03 13:45
DaemonFCThere's no way as far as I can tell, to get the correct files for the XBOX 360 controller into the installation path if you install FlightGear system-wide.Oct 03 13:45
DaemonFCMaybe if I reinstall it later into my user account. I'm the only user on this computer anyway.Oct 03 13:45
DaemonFCI noticed Debian's file system layout is basically everything under /, like Ubuntu's used to be.Oct 03 13:46
DaemonFCThere's arguments for every which way you want to do file system partitioning.Oct 03 13:46
DaemonFCAnd you'll run into problems and benefits any way you do it.Oct 03 13:46
DaemonFCFor a desktop, this method of partitioning is _probably_ okay, unless GRUB corrupts something, and Ext4 has been the default Linux file system for long enough that it probably won't.Oct 03 13:47
DaemonFCschestowitz-TR, Eric Sandeen was one of the people at Fedora (Red Hat) who actually held back being able to install without a separate /boot on Ext2 or Ext3 when Ext4 was new.Oct 03 13:50
DaemonFCHe said they had just been burned by GRUB too many times in the past, especially when /boot was on XFS, because GRUB used its own file system code and in GRUB Legacy, that code wasn't always especially very good.Oct 03 13:51

DaemonFC<schestowitz> ack in the days?Oct 03 13:52
schestowitz(fisrt setence)Oct 03 13:52
DaemonFCYeah. Fedora was still not transitioned over to GRUB 2 at the time, and Sandeen was one of the people who wrote Ext4, and he didn't trust GRUB Legacy with it.Oct 03 13:53
DaemonFCGRUB Legacy was a complete mess. Abandoned upstream for years and hundreds of distribution patches floating around to keep it working.Oct 03 13:53
DaemonFCDistributions applied random patch jobs to it. It was terrible.Oct 03 13:54
DaemonFCSo, if there actually is a uEFI feature I think Linux should use, it's probably just appearing to be a Portable Executable to the firmware, which it does already anyway, and telling the firmware that it is a bootloader.Oct 03 13:56
DaemonFCEssentially, just let it start itself up. That's a big win for avoiding boot delays and possible file system corruption, because obviously the Linux kernel using its own file system drivers is no more likely to corrupt itself than running the kernel under normal usage.Oct 03 13:57
DaemonFCBut GRUB is still using different file system code, which may have errors.Oct 03 13:57
DaemonFCWe've used all sorts of things to boot Linux in the past, like LILO.Oct 03 13:58
DaemonFCIn fact, I refused to even touch GRUB Legacy under Mandrive.Oct 03 13:59
DaemonFCI always chose LILO instead, because I felt it was better designed, and the configuration was dead simple, and there was one guy maintaining it and he accepted patches, and it was better, I felt, than a dead project like GRUB "0.97" that distributions were essentially turning into Weekend at Bernies.Oct 03 14:01

DaemonFCTo be honest, there are some ways where GRUB 2 is a bigger disaster, in usability, than GRUB Legacy.Oct 03 14:02
DaemonFCIt's confusing to configure. It's very easy to accidentally make a mistake and render your system unbootable, and it's easier to use a GRUB Repair program in a live environment than to figure out what you actually did to it.Oct 03 14:03
DaemonFCAnd I think, technically, we need to move on from GRUB.Oct 03 14:03
DaemonFCI'm not so convinced that Ext4 needs to go anywhere after seeing what's been proposed or put out there to replace it.Oct 03 14:05
DaemonFCDebian is super conservative and is still pushing Ext4, and they're probably right.Oct 03 14:06
DaemonFCI always laugh when people tell me you need the file system to support snapshots or something, inside the driver or in the on disk format itself.Oct 03 14:06
DaemonFCObviously, these people never heard of xfsdump.Oct 03 14:07

DaemonFCIt seems lz4 with z3fold makes the most sense because z3fold can hold more compressed pages than zbud can, while lz4 has only very slightly worse compression ratios than lzo (default on Debian for god only knows what reason), but MUCH higher throughput in compressing and decompressng.Oct 03 16:28
DaemonFCzstd appears to be too slow, even though it can compress at much higher ratios than lz4.Oct 03 16:28
DaemonFCBy stuffing this in between my main physical memory pool and my SWAP partition, most of the SWAP activity can be avoided entirely, thus avoiding SSD write activity unless there's simply no other choice.Oct 03 16:30

activelowfor zswap, lz4 is fast, and 50% compression ratioOct 03 19:42
DaemonFCThat's why I picked it.Oct 03 19:42
DaemonFCDebian defaults to lzo for some reason. Same ratio, pretty much, but slower.Oct 03 19:43
DaemonFCIt also falls back to zbud allocator instead of z3fold.Oct 03 19:44
activelowthe reason i digged into this was the idea to implement some scrambling, because a data stream which is compressed and scrambled has some interesting cryptographic propertiesOct 03 19:44
DaemonFCSo you have to put z3fold in initramfs modules.Oct 03 19:44
activelowi chose lz4, patched a tiny linear-feedback-shift-register into it, and made kernel/squashfstools/etc... to support itOct 03 19:45
activelowthe header formats and variants with lz4 are confusing tooOct 03 19:45
activelowthat's why, i didn't continue integrating this with u-boot loader, because debugging and testing weren't trivial, and u-boot required some specific header-format to handle compressionOct 03 19:46
activelowmy idea of "secure boot"... which i already have, without kernel image compression currentlyOct 03 19:47
DaemonFCI might tweak this again a bit.Oct 03 19:47
activelowif i integrated this compression into u-boot, then breaking my "secure boot" would require jtag debuggingOct 03 19:48

DaemonFCI might as well check out kyber and cfqOct 03 23:53
DaemonFCNo CFQ...Heh.Oct 03 23:54
DaemonFCKyber does better than "None" on writes, but worse on reads.Oct 03 23:55
activelowsceptical, if this isn't any side-effect of different sync() timing, if a scheduler involved is faster than none without any concurrencyOct 03 23:59
activelowDaemonFC: does your benchmarking do concurrent reads/writes?Oct 03 23:59
