...se question has been discussed in 2003 and in 2007, extensively. Back then, the conclusion seem to have been that in-process usage is not possible for most use-cases and that instead, a network layer/IPC mechanism is required to use Xapian with any non-GPL software. I think the project is severely undermining its own potential success. I see that there are even consulting services available, but which commercially-orientated project is supposed to ever use Xapian? Has there ever been a motion to finally relicense Xapian to LGPL to make it easier to adapt in commercial solutions? Or did I just miss s...

Hi everyone, I found that Clang -O0 performs optimizations that undermine dynamic bug-finding tools. First, most bug finding tools such as ASan, Valgrind, Dr. Memory, Mudflap, Purify and Safe Sulong (on which I am working) rely on detecting errors during the execution of the program. They either insert additional checks during compile-time or during run-time which are...

...tures complicating the IR. They prefer to see bitcasts and logical operators over unions and bitfields. An alternative is to introduce these features, but add a target lowering phase that strips them from the IR and replaces them with the target-dependent equivalent. The downside here is that it undermines the "single IR" LLVM approach. OTOH, it's a lot like running mem2reg before doing optimizations. Reid

...nt values from ever spilling from registers to the stack. I've looked for code or documentation on how to do this but haven't found anything, apologies if this has already been done. Recent security research has shown that protection schemes such as CFI (that might otherwise be secure) are undermined by sensitive values spilling to the stack. When security-critical values spill from registers to the stack, they can be read and overwritten by an attacker with arbitrary memory read or write capabilities. See "Losing Control" from CCS 2015 for more details on this sort of attack: https...

...[dd.dd.dd.dd]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: Connection lost to authentication server Jun 3 00:23:02 xxx postfix/smtpd[14930]: lost connection after AUTH from unknown[dd.dd.dd.dd] Is there an obvious way around this? I know I could somehow merge the changes into the running sqlite db but that undermines the simplicity of the design I have. Maybe a patch to reopen the db if it's replaced? Or perhaps I should just switch to a different db format -- that's probably the quickest/easiest solution. Any other ideas? There are about 20k entries to deal with. Thanks, David

...LLVM users. The presentations clearly reveal no confidential Apple information; in fact, they were presented in front of a large number of external participants. While we appreciate Apple's continued support of LLVM and of the Developers' Meeting, the goodwill generated is being undermined by this policy to withhold important technical information from other LLVM users, and for little benefit to Apple. --Vikram Adve ---------------------------------------------------------------------- VIKRAM S.

Dear shorewall users: I am going to implement VPN IPSEC pass through. Got shorewall as the main firewall interfacing the internet. I found Tom''s documentation on how to do it. The question is: there''s an argument that VPN pass through (pass through NAT) will undermine the importance of AH (source: freeswan site). Is it true? ------------------------ Lito Kusnadi

...o think outside your own setup. We know the rules, we know the wiki. I don't know the answer. I try to introduce something which may give a clue as to why we would need to do what the poster asks. Please try to give younger people an opportunity to voice their opinions. We are not trying to undermine anyone's authority. Thanks. B.

...affect the network adapter performance. Is a high frequency going to have bad effects on interrupts handling? Has anybody any suggestions about this issue? I have some warnings about HTB quantums being too big, but as i understand, those should only affect the precision of the shaping without undermining the shaping completely. Thank you a lot. jack

...s, only use one that will never auto-respond to *anything*: Yep, those using different <> null senders should be aware, that there envelope sender rewritings, such as BATV and SRS0, that make the address unique each time by adding hashed timestamps or something like that. Those rewritings undermine the vacation database. I hope that those implementations generate an unique address per day and not per message. :-) > http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3834#section-3.3 > > Specifically: > > The primary purpose of the MAIL FROM address is to serve as the > destination for deli...

Hi, I usually stay away from issues like this, basically because I'm not a lawyer (and don't want to be one), and I don't have a real interest in these issues. Quoting Tatu : > We also have a trademark pending on the Secure Shell mark This seriously undermines the IETF standard draft. It's the same as registering 'milk' as a trademark. Both Secure and Shell are common used words, so this trademark doesn't make sense to me. I personally also find it strange that this trademark issue has been playing for 6 years now, and nobody complaine...

Therefore any time you are ever prompted when ssh'ing somewhere, you are being messed with. Your patch undermines 2). If it became a standard practice to "transparently add a passphrase to the agent the first time a key is used", then people will get used to the behavior that they sometimes have to enter their passphrase when ssh'ing somewhere, and sometimes don't. That will make them mor...

Personally, I am agnostic. I've just read thru Centos documentation that there is a big effort to remove all upstream personalities from Centos. Personally, I don't see why RH is doing this. I would think that it undermines RH. But I'm still new/old to all of this. It used to be the big argument was between Unix from Berkeley(4.? I think) and SysIII/V. Always always battles for turf.

...will just come out in the wash. However another take on the whole code owner thing is that the code owner is the person who has the final say on what goes in and what doesn't, so it is important for the code owner to be the über guru (and having other people override their decisions would just undermine their authority and the whole code owner system). Personally I don't really buy this, but I can understand the concern. Maybe Chris should give his take on the whole code owner thing? Ciao, Duncan.

In my work with a simple localization plugin, i''m running into a lot of places in the Rails core, where text and other localization specific information is hardcoded. I''ve included some examples in the bottom of this post. It''s hard for an outsider to know, if the hardcoded values are a result of inconsistency in code, or "by design". I hope that we can have

Hi, I am working on a security architecture. In this architecture, the application in DomU has to communicate directly with the hypervisor. But as I can see, the xen architecture allows only DomU kernel to raise a hypercall. I am planning to enable application to communicate with xen directly. I am assuming, setting up a trap gate with Ring-3 access should do the trick. I have few questions
