SompiActually it seems that the laptop does some checks to make sure that the bootable drive contains a MSDOS-compatible partitioning table, before it transfers the control to the bootloaderMar 21 00:03
SompiSo in "legacy" mode it is bootlocked to operating system that use MSDOS-style partitioningMar 21 00:04
XRevan86Sompi: Maybe. How do ye know though?Mar 21 00:04
SompiIt booted iPXE and I changed stuff there with a hex editorMar 21 00:04
Sompihttps://stanislavs.org/helppc/disk_partition_table.htmlMar 21 00:04
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-stanislavs.org | disk partition tableMar 21 00:04
SompiIt seems to check that the boot indicator bytes are all either 00 or 80Mar 21 00:05
SompiIf some of them isn't, the laptop refuses to bootMar 21 00:05
SompiThat's a nonstandard thing and there is absolutely no reason to do thatMar 21 00:05
SompiThe firmware shoud not anything with that partitioning informationMar 21 00:06
Sompishould*Mar 21 00:06
SompiAnd in UEFI mode the laptop can only boot from its internal hard disk. All other boot options vanish when the UEFI mode is selectedMar 21 00:06
XRevan86Sompi: "laptop does some checks to make sure that the bootable drive contains a MSDOS-compatible partitioning table" <- Could it be for VBR?Mar 21 00:08
XRevan86Sompi: Why are ye even messing with MBR though?Mar 21 00:10
SompiWhat is a VBR?Mar 21 00:10
SompiXRevan86: It seems to check for MSDOS-style partitioning (that microsoft calls MBR), for some reasonMar 21 00:13
SompiAnd the firmware refuses to transfer the control to the boot sector code if there isn't a MSDOS-style partition table presentMar 21 00:14
XRevan86Sompi: The boot sector code is part of the MBR.Mar 21 00:15
XRevan86VBR is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_boot_record , a boot sector stored in a partition.Mar 21 00:16
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Volume boot record - WikipediaMar 21 00:16
XRevan86"that microsoft calls MBR" <- Does "MBR" really sound more Microsoft-like than "MSDOS-style partitioning"?Mar 21 00:18
SompiSo with MSDOS-style partitioning, the "VBR" is the first sector of the "active" partitioningMar 21 00:18
SompiXRevan86: Most GNU partitioning tools call it "msdos partitioning" because MBR is so easily confused with the boot sectorMar 21 00:19

XRevan86Sompi: Does fdisk?Mar 21 00:20
SompiyesMar 21 00:21
Sompi"  o   create a new empty DOS partition table"Mar 21 00:21
Sompi(from fdisk menu)Mar 21 00:22
XRevan86Can't easily check, I don't have any MBR in the vicinity.Mar 21 00:22
XRevan86Except for "Protective MBR", of course.Mar 21 00:24
SompiThe behaviour of that laptop's firmware makes no senseMar 21 00:25
MinceRi suspect that TianoCore is just broken and all these firmware developers just put clothes on that broken messMar 21 00:25
XRevan86InsydeH2O specifically.Mar 21 00:26
SompiIs that TianoCore some Intel's thing?Mar 21 00:27
SompiIntel and Microsoft spread that disinformation everywhere that traditional BIOS is locked to MSDOS-style partitioning, so it would make sense that their own BIOS implementation has that limitationMar 21 00:27
XRevan86It's this: https://tianocore.org/Mar 21 00:27
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Failed connect to tianocore.org:443; Connection refused ( status 0 @ https://tianocore.org/ )Mar 21 00:27
SompiBut that limitation is not in the IBM's official BIOS specificationMar 21 00:28
SompiSo Intel (and probably Microsoft) just made it up to make UEFI look better in comparisonMar 21 00:28
XRevan86Sompi: Ye are assuming anyone would notice.Mar 21 00:29
XRevan86When 99.99999999999% of x86 users have MBR, protective or the real thing, on their drives.Mar 21 00:29
SompiProbably most *nix users at least try using something else. GPT or some rarer BSD-specific partitioningMar 21 00:30
SompiSo it is weird if no-one noticesMar 21 00:30
XRevan86Sompi: Protective MBR is even in GPT's specification.Mar 21 00:30
SompiAlso, didn't the root partition just start from the beginning of the drive in the first versions of BSD? Then in the /etc directory there is a file that contains the information of the other partitionsMar 21 00:32
XRevan86Protective MBR is an MBR partition table with one single partition that allocates the whole drive (with a size ceiling of course).Mar 21 00:32
SompiAnd that bullshit that some new firmwares are doing is seriously breaking stuffMar 21 00:33
XRevan86Sompi: I just checked on YouTube a recording of a person disabling Secure Boot on an Acer Aspire E15.Mar 21 00:33
XRevan86Sompi: And the trick I told you worked for them.Mar 21 00:33
XRevan86Set Supervisor password → Disable Secure Boot → Unset Supervisor passwordMar 21 00:34
SompiXRevan86: But that protective MBR is meant for compatibility with operating systems that only support msdos partitioning. It's not for compatibility with firmwares. Non-UEFI don't care about the partitioningMar 21 00:34
SompiXRevan86: I tried it and the secure boot is always enabled again when I clear the passwordMar 21 00:35
SompiSo the firmware versions are not the sameMar 21 00:35
XRevan86I'm already going to acer.comMar 21 00:35
XRevan86The latest for E5-576G is 1.49, the YouTube person had 1.29Mar 21 00:37
XRevan86I suppose it's possible they changed it in between those.Mar 21 00:37
XRevan86But probably not, since I just found a recording of a much newer Acer laptop with InsydeH2O where the same thing is done.Mar 21 00:38
SompiThat laptop has firmware version 1.31Mar 21 00:39
XRevan86Though maybe not, there's no visual confirmation there.Mar 21 00:42
SompiHow many UEFI- and Microsoft-induced security breachs we need until the normies reject this current direction of development?Mar 21 00:45
techuserThey won't. Society is doomed.Mar 21 00:45
SompiThis is already becoming so ridiculous that I cannot run my own made operating system because of "security", and then the only allowed operating system has a privilege escalation bug that injects who-knows-what to the firmwareMar 21 00:46
SompiAnd now anyone can just hijack anyone's Microsoft account and take their files as a hostage and Microsoft doesn't even consider that a bugMar 21 00:47
techuserWith smartphones, it is even worse, and people don't complain. So of course they won't when it gets ported to PCs.Mar 21 00:47
SompiAnd even banking stuff is done by closed source smartphones and because that money gets stolen all the time. The banks just pay the money back to their affected customers and raise the service feesMar 21 00:49
SompiThey don't even try fixing the security stuff anymoreMar 21 00:49
techuserThey say "trusting computing" is the future. When you control as least as possible.Mar 21 00:50
XRevan86Sompi: At least MBR boot is available on it.Mar 21 00:50
SompiBut I don't want to use MBR, I have a better partitioning scheme.Mar 21 00:50
SompiAnd the hard disk is too large that it could be properly used with Microsoft's MBR partitioningMar 21 00:51
XRevan86Sompi: "And the hard disk is too large that it could be properly used with Microsoft's MBR partitioning" <- With GPT it's not.Mar 21 00:51
SompiBut the firmware refuses to transfer the control to the bootsector code if there isn't a MBR partitioning tableMar 21 00:52
SompiAnd I don't want to use GPT either, it's bad design in other waysMar 21 00:52
techuserSpeaking of UEFI, on my laptop manufactured in 2011, it behaves weidly. When making changes to EFI variables, it reboots. Somehow managed to install a bootloader though.Mar 21 00:52
XRevan86Sompi: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table#Protective_MBR_(LBA_0)Mar 21 00:52
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | GUID Partition Table - WikipediaMar 21 00:52
techuserAt least, changing from an operating system. A shell seems to work.Mar 21 00:53
XRevan86Sompi: For GRUB the instruction is https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GRUB#BIOS_systemsMar 21 00:54
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-wiki.archlinux.org | GRUB - ArchWikiMar 21 00:54
SompiXRevan86: But I don't want to use GRUB eitherMar 21 00:55
SompiThe firmware should just load the boot sector to address 7C00 and jump to it. That's what the specification saysMar 21 00:55
SompiThe firmware doesn't care about partitioningMar 21 00:56
XRevan86Sompi: Alright, do that, just make sure your bootloader can find a GPT partition.Mar 21 00:56
SompiOr it shouldn'tMar 21 00:56
XRevan86Or whatever it is ye want to do.Mar 21 00:56
SompiXRevan86: My bootloader doesn't use any partitioning atmMar 21 00:56
XRevan86Sompi: No problem thenMar 21 00:56

SompiI'm interested in what part of TianoCore's source code checks the presence of the msdos partition tableMar 21 01:04
XRevan86None because TianoCore doesn't handle "Legacy Boot" and MinceR didn't think that quip through (:Mar 21 01:05
SompiokMar 21 01:06
SompiIs there a reference implementation of CSM then?Mar 21 01:06
XRevan86Sompi: No, it's all proprietary BIOS' at that point.Mar 21 01:07
XRevan86Sompi: There's SeaBIOS but it has no relation to anything your system uses.Mar 21 01:07
XRevan86But just FYI, it's possible to use SeaBIOS as CSM for EDK-II, which is occasionally done with coreboot.Mar 21 01:09
SompiSo Acer's firmware programmers have just decided so that the computer won't boot if there is no msdos partition tableMar 21 01:09
XRevan86Sompi: I've no idea. Maybe it's a bug or something they failed to account for since everyone has MBR in some shape or form.Mar 21 01:10

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Reddit - Dive into anythingMar 21 01:10
SompiNo larger than 2TB hard disks for Linux users. No more than four partitions for Linux users.Mar 21 01:11
XRevan86"Convert drive from gpt to mbr with gdisk/gparted" <- Don't do that.Mar 21 01:11
MinceRor they thought it would be funny to have a 'legacy' option with no implementationMar 21 01:11
XRevan86Sompi: Again, GPT.Mar 21 01:11
XRevan86It will work.Mar 21 01:11
SompiXRevan86: No, that computer doesn't boot if there isn't msdos prtitioningMar 21 01:12
XRevan86Sompi: Ironically, it will not work with *Windows*, because Windows' Boot Manager does not support GPT through "Legacy Boot" (MBR boot).Mar 21 01:12
t0talistSompi: the safest bet is to boot from read-only.iso; from a CD-ROMMar 21 01:12
Sompit0talist: It also doesn't have an optical drive.Mar 21 01:12
XRevan86Sompi: I will give you this link again: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table#Protective_MBR_(LBA_0)Mar 21 01:13
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | GUID Partition Table - WikipediaMar 21 01:13
XRevan86Sompi: GPT is designed not to conflict with MBR.Mar 21 01:13
SompiThese new computers really are completely in Microsoft's pocketMar 21 01:13
t0talistSompi: isohybrid... can modify a read-only.so to make that bootable as both, hard-disk with MBR and bootsector, and from cdromMar 21 01:13
t0talistthat's what i am doing; booting from read-only.iso _only_; for the reasons mentioned here alreadyMar 21 01:14
t0talistMBRs were prone to viruses spreading... it's nastyMar 21 01:14
XRevan86Sompi: Every drive with GPT will also have MBR just because, except for some fringe cases when the user specifically wanted not to have it.Mar 21 01:14
XRevan86> But that protective MBR is meant for compatibility with operating systems that only support msdos partitioning. It's not for compatibility with firmwares. Non-UEFI don't care about the partitioningMar 21 01:15
SompiBut ST-DOS doesn't use GPT eitherMar 21 01:15
XRevan86Sompi: Ye said that yourself. But it really doesn't matter with what compatibility is.Mar 21 01:15
t0talistbtw; usb-dvd drives exist...Mar 21 01:16
XRevan86Sompi: Are ye booting MS-DOS?Mar 21 01:16
XRevan86Sompi: `# gdisk -l /dev/sda` → Partition table scan: MBR: protective | BSD: not present | APM: not present | GPT: presentMar 21 01:17
XRevan86> Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT.Mar 21 01:18
XRevan86Sompi: If the problem is in that InsydeH2O wants MBR, it will get it even if ye use GPT.Mar 21 01:18
XRevan86Do ye understand that?Mar 21 01:18

t0talist"No larger than 2TB hard disks for Linux users"; that's not entirely true, hard-disks don't need neither a GPT nor MBR, only boot-disks need that, and the limitation of 2TB there often is irelevantMar 21 01:23
XRevan86The limitation is irrelevant when GPT is used.Mar 21 01:23

t0talisti am trying to avoid MBR/GPT wherever possible; hence booting from ISOMar 21 01:34
SompiI could write a simple bootloader with a fake MBR and use it to boot the actual bootloaderMar 21 01:35
XRevan86t0talist: Is the partition table spying on you?Mar 21 01:35
MinceRmaybe it's just poorly engineeredMar 21 01:36
XRevan86Sompi: If ye are making a custom partition table, just do what GPT did and make a protective MBR.Mar 21 01:36
XRevan86MinceR: It's better-engineered that aggi's brain, so doubt it.Mar 21 01:37
SompiActually with modern computers it is possible that some low-level thing like Intel ME is inspecting stuff on the hard drive and it is more likely to fail on doing that if it doesn't understand the partitioningMar 21 01:37
MinceRor, in the case of GPT, seen as a small victory for the monstrosity that is trying to shove UEFI down our throatsMar 21 01:37
MinceRand with it, having our property locked into BackdoorsMar 21 01:37
XRevan86Sompi: That's definitely not what's going on.Mar 21 01:37
MinceRhow can you tell?Mar 21 01:38
SompiGPT and MBR are both almost equally bad partitioning schemes with hard-coded partition structs that limit the maximum amount of partitionsMar 21 01:38
t0talistthe bootsector is dangerousMar 21 01:38
XRevan86Told you partition tables spy on t0talistMar 21 01:39
t0talistnot the partition tables, the bootsector is dangerousMar 21 01:39
XRevan86MinceR: Looks like bad code inside CSM rather than anything else.Mar 21 01:39
XRevan86t0talist: I guess Secure Boot was made for you.Mar 21 01:40
SompiThough with MBR the extended partitions can be nested infinitely, but then there is the 2 TB size limitMar 21 01:40
XRevan86Sompi: The limitation of GPT is 128 partitions.Mar 21 01:40

t0talistnonetheless, it's usefull, and md5summing any floppy.img or cdrom.iso, that's trivial forensicsMar 21 01:53

SompiI think the read-only switch on floppies is purely mechanical and the drive continuously sends +5V to the write-protect line when the write-protect switch is ON. But a mechanical malfunction can always prevent it from working, and the safest option is to just cut the write line from the flat cable.Mar 21 01:55

geerti think that kind of happened basically enabling malicious utilization by a small few who dont care any dev but call shit securityMar 21 05:50
t0talisti think, software was in better shape 20 years ago, simply because, there was less of it to maintainMar 21 05:51

t0talisti see, most kernel-internal interfaces were not prepared for unit32 timestamps, with linux-2.4 :(Mar 21 06:56
t0talisteven when IBM HPFS used a custom time32 type as unsigned integer; kernel-internal APIs didn't support thatMar 21 06:57
t0talistfor this, year 2014, a giant kernel patch was necessary, to support 32bit timestamps on filesystems until year2106 instead of year2038Mar 21 06:57

SompiIt's recommended to use time_t as the datatype for any variables that store unix timeMar 21 07:01
t0talistyes, and HPFS inside linux-2.4 is an exception to this rule, they intentionally chose unsigned instead of signed 32bit integerMar 21 07:02
t0talistthis requires a careful test; if HPFS would work, and can be used as root/boot filesystemMar 21 07:02
t0talistbecause, backporting nilfs2, that's too much work, to stabilize and test this, initially, when other show-stoppers may quit the whole ideaMar 21 07:03
DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], I just thought of another reason the landlord probably doesn't want anyone to know the building is being sold.Mar 21 07:04
DaemonFCThink about it. If they know the place is about to be sold, they can stop paying rent. He won't be able to evict them for non-payment once the new owners take over. They still owe the old landlord, but not the new one, so as long as they're good with the new one, nobody can evict them.Mar 21 07:05
DaemonFCThe old landlord is just an unsecured debt collector now, and if he thought he had troubles before....Mar 21 07:05
t0talisti am not sure yet, if x86_64-tcc will work; i began with i386 testing, as a baseline, to verify if kernel will pass this, because there's many other problems to cope with, long before y2038Mar 21 07:05
DaemonFCschestowitz[TR], My couch broke. I'm going to try to limp by with it until I know if the landlord is selling or keeping and what's going on with our lease in November.Mar 21 07:06
DaemonFCIf it gets renewed, I have them deliver a new couch and take this one off.Mar 21 07:07
DaemonFCIf it doesn't, well, they can have a broken couch.Mar 21 07:07
DaemonFCNow isn't the time to buy a new couch and then maybe have to move with it in 6-7 months.Mar 21 07:07

t0talistit's weird, because i386-tcc assembler can't digest what a code-generate had output from C-to-ASMMar 21 07:33
t0talistnow i remember, susematz said, i386-tcc missed assembler support for 16bit (real mode iirc), which is what bootsector uses... aaarghMar 21 07:34
t0talistthis has some rather weird consequences, which is, to assemble 16bit realmode, for linux-kernel, you need some binutils-as and dozens of millions of lines of code and gnu buildsystem clutter; just for this, instead of the few thousand LoC that tcc isMar 21 07:36
t0talistbootstrappable.org required a similar stunt, to assemble some of their earliest tiny hex-assembly artifacts of a dozen KiB only, they require llvm-assembler of dozens of millions of LoCMar 21 07:37
t0talistsee the irony of this?Mar 21 07:37
t0talistand this raises even more questions, about the whole bootstrapping and boot-sequence of x86, and the software infrastructure required outside legacy DOSMar 21 07:39

t0talistchecking this quickly... $ arm-tcc linux/arch/arm/boot/bootp/init.S -o /tmp/init ... fails too, requires binutils-as, obviouslyMar 21 07:45
t0talistallright... why is this bad?Mar 21 07:46
t0talistit's bad, because, by design, assembly requires a giant software-infrastructure (from GNU or llvm), which contradicts the idea, of assembly language, of small and efficient utilities, and clean bootstrappingMar 21 07:47
t0talistto assemble a few bytes of a bootsector; dozens of millions of lines of code are required (GNU mostly), which itself got no clean bootstrapping path eitherMar 21 07:49
t0talistallright... FASM, seems relatively clean... however this one may not digest the GNU gas assembly syntax inside linux kernel i fearMar 21 07:52

t0talistand even then, i had to re-integrate GNU binutils (like Oasis Linux did, just for that reason; i tell you the oasis linux developer knows what he's doing)Mar 21 16:59
t0talisthowever, oasis linux didn't address various bootstrapping/system-integration issues, which i already solved or was working to solve thoseMar 21 17:00
t0talistand i think, tcc-toolchain is/was a better starting point than cproc/qbe, because tcc implemented an assembler and linker too, which cproc/qbe is missingMar 21 17:01
t0talistthe good thing, with cproc-qbe, it already repaired the whole system-integration of binutils, which is one of the most important issues to solve, for GNU bootstrappingMar 21 17:02
t0talistthat's one reason why, bootstrappable.org, and any other, couldn't solve yet, hence their reliance on llvm to assemble their tiny x86_64.hex bootloading codeMar 21 17:03
t0talistmistake: *the good thing with Oasis linux, it already repaired the whole system-integration of binutilsMar 21 17:04
psydroid2assembly languages are a problem and instruction sets are a problemMar 21 17:05
psydroid2when will this madness ever end??Mar 21 17:05
t0talistwell, that's in fact something, GNU gas and binutils are relevant for, and desireableMar 21 17:06
t0talisthowever, the system-integration of GNU itself is flawed, that's why i blocked itMar 21 17:06
t0talistthat's why, it is such a HUGE task, to practice both, x86(64) asm hacking, AND binutils system-integration (similar to how oasis linux did it)Mar 21 17:07
t0talistbecause, a powerful assembler that binutils got, is useless, if it can't be integrated; and just as said, the GNU build system itself, is a problemMar 21 17:08
t0talistthat's why, i want to avoid much of GNU, not because of it's license - GPL is fine as far as i am concerned - instead because of technical problems with GNU autohellMar 21 17:09
t0talistand i tend to think, for x86(64), i may prefer FASM over binutils/gas; which required a rewrite of the bootsect.S and othersMar 21 17:13
t0talistthat's a task, when a dozen lines of code to study and rewrite, may require weeks of study and workMar 21 17:14
t0talistbesides firmware, assembly programming, is another proprietary coffin nail drilled into "free software"Mar 21 17:17

t0talistand i see, since linux-2.6; the bootcode for x86/64 was re-implemented; linux-2.4 contained a bootsect.S file; and since 2.6 this was re-written completelyMar 21 17:29
t0talistso, just in case, i could repair the bootcode assembly for linux-2.4; and later decided to move forwared with linux-2.6/4.x/5.x; then again i had to rewrite/hack those partsMar 21 17:30
t0talistand there's much assembly inside syslinux bootloader, which i am using (non-UEFI); that's another hackjob, to verify what's going on inside syslinux bootloaderMar 21 17:31
t0talistBellard btw. invested much effort into qemu (to emulate/simulate x86[_64] with) ... no surprise, because hardware supportMar 21 17:35
t0talistand there was other nasty things going on with the transition of linux-2.4 -> 2.6; such as the dependency on gcc -S to emit GNU gas compatible assembly, for a yet unknown reasonMar 21 17:42
t0talistthat's very tricky, because, you couldn't re-implement various asm parts, without removing the code-generator related parts (cmd_cc_s_c), which generated GNU gas specific codeMar 21 17:44
t0talistso both may have to be fixed, assembly, and the code-generator of gcc -S for thisMar 21 17:44
t0talistouchMar 21 17:44
t0talistto avoid this problem... you're stuck with linux-2.4 for a little while, to detangle from GNU; and linux-2.4 isn't year2038 readyMar 21 17:47
t0talistIBM HPFS filesystem, may be tested on x86_64 to see, if this could surpass y2038 to y2106 on linux-2.4... chances are it mayMar 21 17:48
t0talisthowever, then linux-2.4 got other problems (such as the usb-ethernet and usb-host controller problems to assign an IRQ, which is broken, and the usb-ethernet dongles require backporting of drivers, just for this)Mar 21 17:49
t0talistthat's years of work, just to salvage a linux development branch, which is deprecated for almost 20 years already, and for x86(64) _only_;Mar 21 17:50
t0talistfor aarch32 and/or sparc[64] i am not aware of any free/open assembler implementation alternative to GNU gas...; and hardware is even more scarceMar 21 17:50
t0talistsparc[64]; was the Airbus/EADS choice, little while ago... you see, how this ended... even when trillion cash business was involved... Mar 21 17:53
t0talistschestowitz[TR]: GNU/linux had not required to patent a single line of software or any hardware, and it's all locked and blocked stillMar 21 17:54
psydroid2you can write assembly code that doesn't use any of the generated partsMar 21 17:55
psydroid2but you'll have to do it by hand, I supposeMar 21 17:55
psydroid2because I don't know what GNU gcc -S generates and whyMar 21 17:56
t0talistyes; and even then, a whole bunch of blockers remain, to fork at linux-2.4, for x86_64 only(!)Mar 21 17:56
psydroid2and I have no incentive to find outMar 21 17:56
t0talistand i see, linux-2.4 too uses gcc -S at many places; it's just bootsect.S isn't affected by thisMar 21 17:58
t0talistso, they're generating GNU gas specific assembly for *.c source files... aaarrrrghMar 21 18:00
t0talistat bare minimum, binutils system-integration had to be fixed, like Oasis Linux did it; and even then, pre-generated ASM files had to replace those inside linux kernel which are generated by gcc -S there; that's another ouchMar 21 18:02
t0talistpsydroid2: it's somewhat ironic, because C compilers were intended just for this, to abstract vendor-specific asm, to avoid ISA/vendor specific assembler... ludicrousMar 21 18:03
t0talisttcc invested alot, to implement GNU extensions... they didn't implement a gcc -S equivalent, for an unknown reasonMar 21 18:11
t0talistand i don't know, why linux kernel, requires thisMar 21 18:11

t0talistmjg59_: i don't disagree with you, in fact i consider cracking and reveng, alot of work and effort, which requires highly skilled hackers; and there isn't that many of themMar 21 20:07
mjg59_t0talist: But remember that were you to ever publish a Linux kernel binary, you'd be obliged to distribute the source code to it as wellMar 21 20:08
t0talistmjg59_: LZ4 is BSD licensed... isn't it?Mar 21 20:08
mjg59_t0talist: Not when it's part of the kernel binaryMar 21 20:08
mjg59_The kernel, as a whole, is GPLedMar 21 20:08
mjg59_Which is why it can only incorporate code under GPL-compatible licensesMar 21 20:09
t0talistmjg59_: ok, yet GPL; i am not worried to publish sources, if you wished, you would still need the scrambler-seed... and i tend to think revealing passwords isn't subject to GPLMar 21 20:09
mjg59_How is the seed passed to the kernel?Mar 21 20:10

t0talisti even got that hacked into IPsec stack, while ago, however, decided to abandon ipsec for other reasons, and hacked SSH instead, to support high-speed scrambling this wayMar 21 20:11
mjg59_So, firstly, extracting that from the binary would be trivial. And secondly, no, the source code requires you to provide the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable, which is understood to include the configuration required to generate an equivalent binary from the sourceMar 21 20:11
t0talistmjg59_: wrong, it's NOT trivialMar 21 20:12
t0talistand as things are currently, i don't publish nothing, no binaries, no sourcesMar 21 20:12
t0talistotherwise, GPL doesn't abandon labor-market regulations either, for what i am doing... which is another legal aspect to thisMar 21 20:13

t0talistit too was germany, who sponsored GPG, although i lost interest in GPG2Mar 21 20:41
t0talistGPG1 supports 8K RSA, it's a configure swithc only... weird, GPG2 doesn't anymoreMar 21 20:42
t0talistsame with SSHv1... i think could utilize 8K RSA, SSHv2 abandones the support to scale this upMar 21 20:42
t0talistthat's the system-integration perspective of itMar 21 20:42
t0talistso yeah, Telekom, AT&T, in retro-spective, i consider locking-down some parts, crucial, to protect freedom, to prevent some commercial interests, to pick up those partsMar 21 20:45

mjg59_There's no point in 8k RSAMar 21 20:56
mjg59_For all viable known brute force attacks, 4K is more than sufficientMar 21 20:56
mjg59_And if there's an unknown weakness, 8K is not going to save youMar 21 20:56
DaemonFCIncreasing the cipher strength is not always a great idea, if the algorithm itself is full of bugs or backdoors.Mar 21 20:57
DaemonFCIn many cases, you just increase the workload on the system and then you're still gaining nothing past a certain point.Mar 21 20:57
t0talistmjg59_: wrongMar 21 20:58
DaemonFCIf the US federal government wants to break your encryption, I mean, God knows OpenSSL isn't going to help you.Mar 21 20:58
DaemonFCThey're paying people to sabotage it.Mar 21 20:58

DaemonFCThe US dropped its "no export" law on "strong" crypto.Mar 21 21:00

t0talistand the strongest, even in 32bitMar 21 21:01
DaemonFCIt's designed to be insecure but it accomplishes this mostly by being full of dead and insane code that looks like it's just full of bugs and written by some deranged people.Mar 21 21:01
DaemonFCWhich gives them deniability.Mar 21 21:01
t0talisthowever, LFSR, are the symmetric part, and the assymmetric one is related to SSHv1, GPGv1, which were phased outMar 21 21:02
t0talistwith all this: LFSR, RSA, ECB-mode, the trick is, this must be implemented correctlyMar 21 21:06
t0talistTHEN, only then, it's safe and simpleMar 21 21:06
