solrodar the problem with precedent and rule based systems is that you don't know what will happen until it actually happens. i would guess what would happen here would be the bet gets cancelled and so the nos get their btc back too, and perhaps the ability of bet starter to create that clause gets curtailed. |

unsurprise. |

asciilifeform collected five versions of gpg, not in one is the thing actually implemented |
19:07 |
asciilifeform |
ergo the last time anyone could have easily tested the allocator is - at the very latest - 1997 |
19:07 |
asciilifeform |
supposing it were ever tested |
19:08 |
asciilifeform |
and (and i could go on and on) the thing is implemented in a profoundly braindamaged way |
19:08 |
asciilifeform |
as a kind of reimplementation of malloc that... uses malloc internally for the segments ! |
19:08 |
asciilifeform |
how hard would it have been to allot a static buffer at warmup ?!!!!! |
19:09 |
asciilifeform |
how easy it would have been to bitwalk it (like the braindead 'secmem' thing in gpg insists on doing PER SEGMENT !!?!!!) |
19:09 |
mircea_popescu |
you're not trying to argue that gpg is to be replaced are you ? |
19:09 |
asciilifeform |
i'm trying to salvage what is salvageable. |
19:09 |
asciilifeform |
and the answer turns out to be 'precious little' |
19:09 |

19:09 |
mircea_popescu |

someone worked astonishingly hard to make this thing a nearly-incomprehensible morass. |
19:12 |
asciilifeform |
incidentally - there is a very convenient 1-byte flag, that, if 'poked', will instantly cause gpg to use ordinary (paged) memory. |

19:13 |
mircea_popescu |
people tend to use the same exact hdd in raid |
19:14 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: and how is one to conspire with the others ? |

mircea_popescu |
aha. yea. |
19:15 |
asciilifeform |
but yes, if the disks 'know' (somehow) that you have a raid-5 of n disks, using a particular controller, they could, e.g., 'agree' to return a patched boot sector. |
19:16 |
asciilifeform |
but they must know without fail. otherwise the offending disk gets thrown out. |
19:16 |
mircea_popescu |
not like this doesn't happen |
19:16 |
mircea_popescu |
think about it.,.. well, i dunno how much experience you have with it, but |
19:16 |
mircea_popescu |
"fail new disk" error rate seems to be 5 to 10x higher in raid setups than in solo setups. |
19:16 |
mircea_popescu |
.... why ? |
19:17 |
asciilifeform |
because a solo will happily carry on with a rotten disk ? |
19:17 |
asciilifeform |
how's he to know |
19:17 |
asciilifeform |
a solo disk doesn't get thrown out, typically, until it begins to smoke |
19:17 |
mircea_popescu |
perhaps. |
19:18 |
asciilifeform |
raid also tends to be used by folks who run boxes 24/7, and hot |
19:18 |
asciilifeform |
which brings out the duds. |
19:18 |
asciilifeform |
another thing is that the drives usually share power rail and one can cascade-kill the rest |
19:18 |

it does offer a firm guarantee that "always the one you made" |

my thought was to create if it doesn't exist, otherwise die. and delete at the end of execution. however there is a scenario where if for instance a seal exists from a key that is not in the wot and the application exits before main returns. |
21:09 |
mircea_popescu |
gen memory key, keep it in a file keyed thus, delete on finish. |
21:09 |
asciilifeform |
create in such a way that creation fails if dir existed. problem solved. |

in that case you'd better truncate it doing run too, because if that pogo doesn't go down, there's no cap on the log |

actually the rotating tape is not such a bad idea. not just for pogo-log, but in general. wild notion, but, asciilifeform how about memory allocator that simply overwrites the beginning ? |
22:33 |

system message buffer operates that way (i.e. what you get with dmesg) |

Logged on 05-11-2015 03:16:02; phf: mod6: you might be right not wanting to `use`. i decided to look at file::temp to see how they do ffi, but instead it's a custom perl written blob. probably reasonable to use, but.. in any case i recommend at least conforming to the api of mkdtemp("/tmp/fooXXX") => /tmp/fooAj5. i took a stab at a sample code, http://paste.lisp.org/display/158520, but there are some other things to keep in mind, |
22:33 |
mircea_popescu |
phf so it does. |
22:34 |
mircea_popescu |
and for this same exact reason, as alf would say, "cement". |
22:34 |

I suppose given you can fire up networking entirely from within the linux kernel, init=bitcoind may be all that is needed at some point |
22:34 |
phf |
mircea_popescu: i honestly thought it was a thin wrapper around call to unix mkdtemp, glad i checked |
22:34 |
mircea_popescu |
trinque the eventual end goal is to have bitcoinix. as alf says, no userland at all. nor really a kernel in the common sense. |
22:35 |
mircea_popescu |
kinda have a) a nix ; b) a bitcoin and c) an obvious pogo-merge for these two. |

apropos this conversation, emacs as init http://informatimago.com/linux/emacs-on-user-mode-linux.html, prototyped using "user-mode-linux", http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net something that could be used for bitcoind |

back to tape : not to mention that since these these things are virtualized, you could in principle specify how you wish the available mem to be split among the various rotating tapes. |
22:50 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: an allocator that knows that it is acceptable to lose some old bits is called a circular buffer and behaves like a looped tape, yes |
22:50 |
asciilifeform |
e.g., your nic's buffers |
22:50 |
asciilifeform |
everything on your box that can safely behave this way, pretty much already does. |
22:50 |
mircea_popescu |
why not mempool ? |
22:50 |
asciilifeform |
mempool is a great example |
22:50 |
asciilifeform |
of a mechanism which ought to work this way |
22:50 |
mircea_popescu |
but not implemented thus currently. |

'Xv6 is a rewrite of v6 UNIX in modern C that runs on multicore x86 chips. It compiles in a couple of seconds and is trivial to boot up in QEMU. It took me a while to see the genius of Xv6, which is that it is simpler than I would have thought a working multicore OS with shell and filesystem could be. For example, it lacks wait queues and ready queues in Xv6, both wakeup and scheduling are accomplished by looping over the |
23:50 |
asciilifeform |
all-process table. Similarly, theres no malloc() in the kernel, but rather just a page allocator. The pipe implementation copies one byte at a time. Amazingly, even the bootloader is a pleasure to read. Another nice thing about Xv6 is that it comes with a short textbook that explains OS concepts in terms of their implementations in Xv6.' |
