Hi all, I am trying to figure out how to do this in R and I need your help. My journey started from something like the following: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11365857/real-time-auto-updating-incremental-plot-in-r/1#1 n=1000 df=data.frame(time=1:n,y=runif(n)) window=100 for(i in 1:(n?\window)) { flush.console() plot(df$time,df$y,type='l',xlim=c(i,i+window)) Sys.sleep(.09) }

Hi I noticed in a post that Timo might start work on a LDA Great! If so, here is something I would really like included. Support for PAM There is quite a lengthy reason behind this. In my organisation, user accounts are created on ldap. It is up to the services to create home directories whenever the user first uses them. For instance, Samba will do this the first time they connect to their

This patchset makes a global rename of the kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to highlight the fact buffer clearing is only needed if the data objects contain sensitive information like encrpytion key. The fact that kzfree() uses memset() to do the clearing isn't totally safe either as compiler may compile out the clearing in their optimizer. Instead, the new kfree_sensitive() uses

v5: - Break the btrfs patch out as a separate patch to be processed independently. - Update the commit log of patch 1 to make it less scary. - Add a kzfree backward compatibility macro in patch 2. v4: - Break out the memzero_explicit() change as suggested by Dan Carpenter so that it can be backported to stable. - Drop the "crypto: Remove unnecessary

...the z is meaningful and an important part of what the caller wants. In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_. The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory objects. Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit....

v4: - Break out the memzero_explicit() change as suggested by Dan Carpenter so that it can be backported to stable. - Drop the "crypto: Remove unnecessary memzero_explicit()" patch for now as there can be a bit more discussion on what is best. It will be introduced as a separate patch later on after this one is merged. This patchset makes a global rename of the kzfree()
