I''m trying to figure out how I can pin the CPU affinity for individual domU''s in their configuration file. I allocated 3 CPUs to a particular domU, and the CPU affinity is floating between those three. I want to pin them to specific cores in the config file. I can do it on bootup by doing vcpu-pin on the command-line, but I want this to be set int he config file itself. Right

If you compile this with optimizations, then the 'canary()' function should be totally inlined into the 'main()' function. In that case, the cost of the stack protectors will be very small compared to the loop. -bw On Mar 9, 2012, at 2:52 AM, Job Noorman <jobnoorman at gmail.com> wrote: > I have a question about the performance of the implementation of the stack >

Anyone on the asterisk list have any thoughts about the new Open Moko linux mobile? http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=35590 http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS2986976174.html http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/06/11/08/004230.shtml Is there any integration into Asterisk that we can look at? Anyone want to through some application ideas they'd like to see developed

I have a question about the performance of the implementation of the stack protector in LLVM. Consider the following C program: ===== void canary() { char buf[20]; buf[0]++; } int main() { int i; for (i = 0; i < 1000000000; ++i) canary(); return 0; } ===== This should definately run slower when stack protection is enabled, right? I have measured the runtime of

Hi all, I am master student in Edinburgh, UK. I am doing my MSc project with LLVM compiler and I have to modify LLVM to implement the StackGuard with a XOR random Canary. However, I am not familiar with LLVM. My problem is that I want to XOR the random canary word with the return address which are both 32 bits. I found a method called SimplifyXorInst(Value *, Value *, const TargetData

All, I just noticed this in my logs, and am rather lost as to what module it pertains to. I would assume pseudo-realtime priority for the process, but I am looking for a little confirmation from the group: [Apr 28 12:28:36] WARNING[20773] asterisk.c: The canary is no more.

Hi all, I want to implement the Xor random canary, so I have to get the return address in the prologue and epilogue of the function. In the prologue of the function, before I insert into the canary on the stack, I can get the return address by: ConstantInt* ci = llvm::ConstantInt::get(Type::getInt32Ty(RI->getContext()), 0); Value* Args1[] = {ci}; CallInst* callInst =

People, Anybody knows what mean this message in my CLI: [Apr 1 16:58:34] WARNING[3845]: asterisk.c:3050 canary_thread: The canary is no more. He has ceased to be!

Dear R users: i try to use package "reldist" to measure wage distribution. In package "reldist" : y mean sample from comparison distribution yo mean sample from reference distribution but I would like to compare more than two years ( total of fifteen years, from 1979, 1981, 1983..........to 2007) how should i correct my programs, then i could compare fifteen year's

Dear all users, I read all R programs and texts in "Relative Distribution Methods" website, but I encounter two problems when I used it. then I used "Google" to try to find any solutions about the two problems,but I got no useful hints. 1、 In package "reldist" y mean sample from comparison distribution yo mean sample from reference distribution but I
