Want to help me implement next-gen TCP/IP stack on Linux ?
Hi All, Recently I have developed a next-gen TCP/IP stack called IP-FF. It solves a bunch of problems with scalability, user-friendliness, mobility, improves checksum strength and more. I have written presentation of it: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1XbqWOwv0GASmSjYZimfK64QKQQ-0yK9xQ1_spRhlf8Y/edit#slide=id.gc6f80d1ff_0_0 Plus RFC drafts of the specification: It now consists of 10 parts: 1. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff/ 2. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: Addressing Architecture https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-addressing/ 3. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: Address Resolution Protocol https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-arp/ 4. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: Babysitter (new NAT) https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-babysitter/ 5. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: DHCP https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-dhcp/ 6. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: DNS extensions https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-dns/ 7. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: ICMP https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-icmp/ 8. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: Mobile TCP (Mobile IP replacement) https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-mops/ 9. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: TCP.64-bit extensions https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-tcp64/ 10. Internet Protocol - Five Fields: UDP https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eromenko-ipff-udp/ The Linux kernel has so many IPv4 modules, that I don't know even where to start... But the general idea is to take existing IPv4 code and modify it according to IP-FF specification. Would you like to help me implement it on Linux ? -- -Alexey Eromenko "Technologov"
Bug#783995: [feature-request] Please allow to view kernel config via /proc/config.gz in all Debian kernels
Why would it be good for this to be exposed inside a container? So that applications know, if they can use advanced features such as AppArmor or not. And to give more complete environment for the admins. Plus, to debug problems inside debian-installer. (it lacks /boot/config), like bug # 783982, where normal Debian 8 kernel supports floppy /dev/fd0, but d-I kernel doesn't. Why it can't be changed in stable releases? I mean if the change is small and beneficial, why not ? (Assuming it doesn't require major kernel source code changes, but only kernel config)
Bug#783995: [feature-request] Please allow to view kernel config via /proc/config.gz in all Debian kernels
Package: linux-image-amd64 Version: 3.16.7-ckt7-1 Hi, It would help me very much, if Debian kernel provided a quick ability to see it's own configuration in /proc/config.gz. Reason: in some cases viewing current kernel configuration via # /boot/config-$(uname -r) is not available; For example when working with Debian-installer (booting from DVD), or working inside an OpenVZ (or LXC) container. For those reasons I ask you to enable /proc/config.gz in all supported Debian kernels (Debian 6, 7 and 8), if possible. As far as I'm aware it's stable feature, and there is no downside from enabling it. +General setup [*] Kernel .config support [*] Enable access to .config through /proc/config.gz Original article: http://superuser.com/questions/287371/obtain-kernel-config-from-currently-running-linux-system Thanks in advance, -- -Alexey Eromenko Technologov, 01.May.2015. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#767130: Suspend/sleep causes my laptop to never wake up, lose data
Package: linux-image-amd64 Version: 3.16-2-amd64 Severity: critical When I close the lid on my laptop, it goes to sleep (suspend). When I open it up, the system never wakes up, which equals to system crash and data loss. Hardware: Toshiba Portege Z30 Ultrabook, Intel Core i7 4600U DMI decode: http://pastebin.com/30Jhfr77 lspci -v: http://pastebin.com/sBWXCGjM The problem could be upower, or kernel itself. This bug makes Debian a non-functional on this laptop. Sadly I can't use Debian 7.0 Wheezy on it, due to lack of Ethernet drivers. I am using Debian GNU/Linux 8.0 Jessie BETA, kernel Linux version 3.16-2-amd64 Debian 3.16.3-2 (2014-09-20) -- -Alexey Eromenko Technologov, 28.Oct.2014. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
