Efficient Green Thread Context-Switching
Sorry, I certainly didn't mean to be dishonest. I was just repeating one of the comparisons given by the research paper. Regardless, even setjmp() uses a structure of 148 bytes in size (on my machine). The main point is that with compiler support, many context switches can be easily reduced to just a few instructions and only 8 byte of memory, and even in the worst case they will outperform

The first time you said “setjmp/longjmp intrinsics” I thought it was a typo, and that you were talking about the C standard library functions. If you’re actually talking about LLVM intrinsics, are they documented? I don’t see any intrinsics with those names in the language reference (https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html <https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html>). > On Mar 27, 2020, at 3:30 PM,

Efficient Green Thread Context-Switching
Hi LLVM devs, I’d like to describe my problem, and then propose new features of LLVM which would solve it efficiently. I'm building a new statically-compiled programming language, and I plan on using LLVM as the backend. The language will have a runtime with cooperatively managed green threads (user-space "mini-threads", each with their own dynamically allocated stack). A single OS

Security problems with CookieStore and CSRF protection
Dear Rails community, As part of a programming languages/security research group at the University of Maryland, we are building some static analysis tools for Rails applications. These tools work by taking formally specified properties of interest, and then analyzing code to verify that those properties indeed hold. Using these tools, we found some security vulnerabilities in Rails, and we would

Status of OpenSSL 1.1 support - Thoughts
As far as I can see, here is a summary of the situation, and there's a point to this, but I only make it in step (4), needing the first three steps to set up a background to keep my own thoughts clear: 1) Fedora (via Jakub) shows it's possible to patch OpenSSH. 2) OpenVPN (via gert) shows it's possible to build a 'shim' of sorts that allows code to work with libreSSL and

I subscribe (pay) for a lot of things personally. Music, Movies, Anti Virus, VPN, Storage, etc. But for my business, I do not want to pay Red Hat, Zimbra, or Google Workspace. Why ? Because the general rule seems to be Oh! You are an individual, we will offer you affordable/free service What! You are a business, we will offer you extremely 'unaffordable' service. Because being a

Both Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux are in a very comfortable position, and they will likely stay that way. my predict is that they will continue as a #rebuilder / #freeloader, writing software is a hard work.

At rest encryption (with protected crypto keys)
Hi, As stated on the Dovecot documentation, at rest encryption is possible [1]. However, these keys are present on the system itself and are unprotected. Therefore, if a system is compromised, the attacker has access to the encrypted mail and the keys. There is no security benefit in that situation, except for hoping that the attacker doesn't understand that this is happening and how.

Steve Jobs about theora
I guess you've all read it already, but here it goes: "All video codecs are covered by patents. A patent pool is being assembled to go after Theora and other ?open source? codecs now. Unfortunately, just because something is open source, it doesn?t mean or guarantee that it doesn?t infringe on others patents. An open standard is different from being royalty free or open source.

I suspect that this is sometimes done dishonestly in order to sell hi-fi enthusiasts DVD-A's made from lower-quality source material. After all, they do sell $35 dollar "high definition" digital coaxial S/PDIF cables at your local Radio Shack. And you lost me on the last paragraph there, but that's okay. Thanks for the clarifica...
