IBM System 390 was a 1990s series of models of what used to be called mainframes (though now _way_ smaller than they used to be), with their own chip architure. It was replaced in the 2000s by the IBM zSeries family (which then got other similar names with 'Z' in them, whenever IBM Marketing department got twitchy and decided to rebrand a little). zSeries is 64-bit, and I vaguely recall that being one difference from the related S/390 series that preceded it, but they're closely related. The Linux relevance is that there have for a very long time been ports to S/390 boxen and to zSystems, including an official Debian port that as of Debian 9 'strech' drops the 32-bit 'ESA/390 mode' support and requires support of 'Z/Architecture', which AFAIK is mostly or entirely about that type of 64-bit operation. (I'm vague on the fine details of these, and if someone on Dng really thinks it's worth time gnawing on fine details that I've failed to cover with excruciating exactitude, about which I could not possibly be arsed to research fully, you'll earn a virtual cookie and a vitual pat on your little OCD head.) ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

On the other hand, _every_ use of strncpy() for a C string is a bug. There are three possibilities: A> either the string does overflow B> or it doesn't C> you know the string's length beforehand If A>, then you have a nasty non-terminated string that can't be passed to any function expecting a C string (resulting in a read overflow). Yay a security hole, crash, or at least corrupted data. If B>, you waste time clearing the buffer. As there's a static size (otherwide it'd be C>), there's a good deal of headway. In a typical case (judging from programs I looked at) you have a string of twelve bytes in a buffer of 2K... and a clear every single copy. Yay significant slowdown. If C>, you should have used memcpy() instead. Scanning for a 0 is slower than a blind loop. On the other hand, snprintf(), strlcpy() and so on do what naive intuition says strncpy() would do.

No actually... Pottering is a Microsoft plant set with the mission to destroy Linux as we know it!

Le 29/10/2018 à 03:51, Rick Moen a écrit : Quoting hal (vmli...@charter.net): What are the particulars? The Bloomberg report (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-10-28/ibm-is-said-to-near-deal-to- +acquire-software-maker-red-hat) says this is a _cash_ acquisition, the tender offer being at $190/share, which is a huge premium over the stock's closing market price of $116.68/share on Friday. The Bloomberg reporters claim this is IBM's move to quickly get into cloud computing. This is by far the largest acquisition IBM has ever carried out, and the third largest in USA tech, ever. Not clear what's best, RedHat being bought by IBM, Microsoft, or Google. I was thinking Systemd was made to attract Microsoft or Google; therefore it's a surprise. Maybe IBM moved to beat the two other. Didier ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
