  2. is the latest project that provides continuous snapshots from current git with both source archives and manuals.

    snapshots.sourceware.org

    This helps to make sure the release process always works and that manuals can be produced in various formats.

    Thanks to osuosl.org for hosting the snapshots server.

  3. Sourceware 25 Roadmap

    sourceware.org/sourceware-25-r

    Preparing for the next 25 years.

    In the last couple of years we have started to diversify our hardware partners, setup new services using containers and isolated VMs, investigated secure supply chain issues, added redundant mirrors, created a non-profit home, collected funds, invested in open communication, open office hours and introduced community oversight by a Sourceware Project Leadership Committee with the help from @conservancy

  4. Working on individual tech sovereignty together

    was picked for a futo.org Microgrant, which has been donated to through @conservancy for maintaining and expanding the infrastructure for Valgrind and other core toolchain and developer tool projects.

    If you want to donate to Sourceware please see sfconservancy.org/donate and become a Conservancy Sustainer or give directly by mentioning Sourceware as comment or on the memo line.

  5. Open office hour every second Friday of the month in channel overseers on irc.libera.net at 18:00 UTC. Which is today!

    Please feel free to drop by with any hosting questions. Help with email (archives, spam), secure supply chain, setting up new buildbot CI, producing snapshots, helping write up some POCs, discussing extending services, what the Software Freedom Sourceware Project Leadership Committee should prioritize, or just to say things are working fine.

    * Support for mseal and openat2 on #Linux

    * Additional optimized and correctly rounded mathematical functions have been imported from the CORE-MATH project […]

    * Unicode support has been updated to Unicode 17.0.0.

  12. elfutils 0.195 released

    inbox.sourceware.org/elfutils-

    ELFUTILS 0.195 "Handwritten" - elfutils.org/

    A new release of elfutils is available at:
    ftp://sourceware.org/pub/elfutils/0.195/
    or sourceware.org/elfutils/ftp/0.

    Visit us on the Libera.Chat irc channel #elfutils

  13. Today's bug is in `elfutils`:
    sourceware.org/PR33103

    There `elfutils` build system did something like:

    $ cat stack.cc
    <stack>
    int main(){}

    $ gcc -I. stack.cc -o stack
    $ gcc -I. stack.cc -o stack

    It breaks as:

    $ gcc -I. stack.cc -o stack
    # ok
    $ gcc -I. stack.cc -o stack
    In file included from stack.cc:1:
    ./stack:1:1: error: stray '\177' in program
    1 | <U+007F>ELF<U+0002>...

    Included <stack> is an ELF file now.

  14. Note that someone created various CVEs for #elfutils based on (fixed and closed) bug reports without following our SECURITY policy: sourceware.org/cgit/elfutils/t

    These are NOT security issues according to our policy.

    We request that people who report suspected security vulnerabilities report them through the contacts in our SECURITY policy and not through non-affiliated CNAs.

    Creating random CVEs without coordinating with the upstream project and designated CNA just causes lots of make work.

  15. #elfutils 0.190 "Woke!" released
    inbox.sourceware.org/elfutils-

    Friendlier CONTRIBUTING. RELR support. eu-readelf now supports -D, --use-dynamic and can show version 9 .gdb_index. A new eu-srclines tool that shows all files that were used to create a binary. debuginfod has a new schema for a 60% compression in filename representation.

  16. Anticipating #valgrind 3.27.0.

    Andreas also showed there are still meaningful optimizations to be made on how memcheck tracks undefinedness bits as outlined in the original "Using Valgrind to detect undefined value errors with bit-precision" valgrind.org/docs/memcheck2005 paper.

    His optimization of memcheck instrumenting a bitwise AND/OR with a constant is clever and simplifies the generated code: sourceware.org/cgit/valgrind/c

  17. Valgrind 3.27 RC1 is out

    An RC1 tarball for 3.27.0 is now available at
    sourceware.org/pub/valgrind/va
    (md5sum = bd95111c1a9f81f136c5e4e2c62b493e)
    (sha1sum = 0eefb3a7d86a3bd0154480db3d2173bb8bd6d7c1)
    sourceware.org/pub/valgrind/va
    Public keys can be found at klomp.org/mark/gnupg-pub.txt

    Please give it a try in configurations that are important for you and
    report any problems you have, either on the developer/user mailing list, or
    (preferably) via our bug tracker at
    bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?pro

    An RC2 should be available Fri Apr 17
    The final 3.27.0 release is scheduled for Mon Apr 20.

  18. Today's `binutils-gdb` bug in `ld.bfd` is sourceware.org/PR33530.

    There `ld.bfd` spends a ton of RAM and CPU time on inputs with huge section counts. In the example in initial comment `ld.gold` spends 50ms where `ld.bfd` spends 5s.

    On real examples produced by haskell compiler with `-fsplit-section -optl-Wl,--gc-sections` it translates to extra minutes of link time on larger binaries.

    I think it's an `ld` garbage collection bug.

  19. What I've been doing the last 3 days:
    - Working on a `./bootstrap` for ...

    - ...finished and sent it! sourceware.org/pipermail/binut
    - Finally responding to feedback on other changes I've sent off.
