Here's what you get for free: https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Catalogue... As you can see, it takes flags and compiler from the environment.

The comparable makefile: exe: file.cpp Default rules take care of the rest. And if you argue that the barebones example is insufficient for a real project: absolutely true. The same applies to your cmake example.

Still WIP. We're not yet at a million useful procs.

> They only suffer the performance consequences of userspace having to use the synchronous syscalls. And the need to implement all the functionality twice. Who is going to do that?

by ori_b 4y ago
Does this matter when you have shared libraries? ld.so will be doing hundreds of syscalls at start regardless.

This is roughly how I work too; I develop Go, glue in some Linux for doing builds. The biggest weakness is web browsing, and there's a lot that could be done to glue in the hardware virtualization support better into the system, in the

The first commit containing the packfile docs is from 2006.

Yes. The wire format docs, especially for HTTP, are atrocious. The pack format is well documented enough. ( https://github.com/git/git/tree/maint/Documentation/technica... ) I wrote the 9front impleme

If we're plugging implementations, I tend to use the single-file implementation that ships with 9front. I wrote the first cut, but it's been improved heavily by others: http://man.9front.org/8/acmed http:&#x

The same thing I do if the vulnerability is in the binary itself, and not in a library. Surely, if you care, you have a mitigation plan for this?

by ori_b 4y ago
Sure. Networks are fast enough.

The code is readable and maintainable, and can be used in the Linux distro that the author maintains without pulling in a huge number of dependencies to build a C++ compiler. https://github.com/oasislinux/oasis https:

It's something borrowed directly from email, at least in traditional clients, and it works.

I poke around code that candidates have written. Simplicity is a virtue.

That rapidly converges on "you can't buy a computer and use it", because economic interests favor trusted computing devices.

You're right -- the traceable transaction ledger that most cryptocurrencies generate is exactly what this law is intended to force people towards, to ease the burden on law enforcement. Combined with basic know-your-customer laws, they

You can maintain it, and get the associated glory and fame! (it honestly seems relatively finished, so I don't think there's all that much work, either.)

VMs are also full of side channels. Depending on how much isolation is a concern, you need to own the host. I don't trust VMs particularly more than containers in this respect: Containers have a lot of attack surface, but VMs also have

You could run it in a very simple container, unshare(1) style. This adds no measurable overhead to binary startup time. https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/unshare.1.html
