Setting (only) VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PASSTHROUGH indicates to the guest that its own operating system's IOMMU code is expected to be broken, and that the virtio driver should eschew the DMA API? And that the guest OS cannot further assign the affected device to any of *its* nested guests? Not that the broken IOMMU code in said guest OS will know the latter, of course. With VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM set, VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PASSTHROUGH is just a *hint*, suggesting that the guest OS s...

I’m not saying that the linker should eschew fine grained control, I’m saying it should dump linker scripts (and replace them with something better). Are you going to argue that linker scripts are great, or that they are what we would end up with if we weren’t driven by backwards compatibility goals? -Chris

No - it tells guest that e.g. the ACPI tables (or whatever the equivalent is) do not match reality with respect to this device since IOMMU is ignored by hypervisor. Hypervisor has no idea what does guest IOMMU code do - hopefully it is not actually broken. > And that the guest OS...

Greetings, Have been looking at the specs of Boston Venom T4000. Boston Venom T4000 http://www.bostonindia.in/products/bos-t4000.aspx I could not figure out the lowest base price points, HA features and KVM support Yet to work out the storage part of say 8TB storage (with HA features, of course) for this beast. and accessability issues from devices. I am in the middle of trying to find out

...be terminated with semicolon. I don't really like the attitude that *I* have to follow *their* coding guidelines in my own code! If I'm contributing code to their project then I agree it's reasonable to expect adherence to their coding standards, but not just to use their library. By eschewing the standard idiom for wrapping multiline macro calls, they're forcing the risk of silent miscompilation on their users. Finally, they use UTF-16 as their internal representation whereas we want to use UTF-8. For the queryparser, this isn't an issue as there are macros for decoding UTF...

Using ntlm_auth with a non-Squid application
...Symfony php framework, which would provide SSO capabilities to browsers that are logged in an MS AD domain and support the NTLMv2 protocol. Ideally this module would run on linux servers, and be portable, i.e. require as few non-php tools and network/firewall settings as possible (that's why I eschewed the existing Apache modules which do Kerberos) So far I have working code which can generate, send, receive and decode the NTLMv2 messages. The only catch is that I cannot easily verify the autentication messages sent by the browser in response to the challenge messages that my app has sent, as...

[PATCH net-next] vhost_net: do not stall on zerocopy depletion
..._stream throughput tests from a sender in the guest to a receiver in the host. To answer the other benchmark question first, I did not see anything noteworthy when increasing vq->num from 256 to 1024. With 1 and 10 flows without this patch all packets use zerocopy. With the patch, less than 1% eschews zerocopy. With 100 flows, even without this patch, 90+% of packets are copied. Some zerocopy packets from vhost_net fail this test in tun.c if (iov_iter_npages(&i, INT_MAX) <= MAX_SKB_FRAGS) Generating packets with up to 21 frags. I'm not sure yet why or what the fraction of thes...
