If you want this, it's easy enough to allocate your own stack, and write
functions that allocate from it and release the allocation. If you were
writing in C++, you could make releasing the allocation automatic.
I think this illustrates why the kernel developers are taking Rust
seriously.
On Fri,
Unfortunately there isn't really a good display solution for Linux
that does not make use of "direct rendering", in which user-mode code
talks directly to the display hardware - especially where 3D and video
are concerned. It is simply not possible to construct a reliable
system in which user-mode
Busybox is GNU. The fact that FSF doesn't own it is immaterial. I developed
it for Debian GNU/Linux.

Isn't this one of the things the "dracut" alternative to initramfs-tools
was intended to fix?

Florian,
I'm glad that worked. What I found with initramfs-tools was that kernels I
built on my workstation were not working on my laptop because they ended up
having hardcoded device references built into the initramfs. Thus must be

They are the old-fashioned processes. Generally much heavier-weight than
threads, but it doesn't matter for this application. If there are enough

Speed tests on cached filesystems don't do what is expected. The kernel
will write into RAM as much as it can, and leave the actual I/O for later.

I came to the conclusion a while back that systemd was symptomatic of the
fact that we had gone as far as the fundamental assumptions of the Unix API
could take us. It is 50 years old, after all.
There is room for replacement of systemd and continuation of Linux and BSD.
But we should be looking fo

This goes way back. Mach did lightweight messaging and more (and survives
in MacOS, I think), Plan 9 did the graphics API == window

RISC-V is changing a lot of things. PowerPC doesn't have much value any
longer. IBM will be fine without it. I wouldn't capitalize ARM right now.

Copy the block partition (not the mounted files) to a same size or larger
blank block partition using ddrescue or gddrescue. Try to mount that read

The problem for me is that I would rather work on new stuff. Systemd and so
on are symptoms of the Unix design not really being a good fit for modern
demands. That doesn't mean that you band-aid them with systemd, it's time
for a different architecture. It is also time for what comes after Open
