OmniOS. Подключаем ИБП и попутно знакомимся с IPS

Задача: Есть "коробка" с работающей 24/7 OmniOS. Со временем в "коробке" накопилось столько всего важного, что стоимость этой информации превысила стоимость самой "коробки". Наиболее вероятная угроза информации - это фатальный сбой файловой системы при сбоях электропитания. Нужно научить OmniOS "слушать" сообщения от ИБП и самостоятельно выключаться пока ИБП выдает напряжение.

Currently watching this video from #FrOSCon which covers "Right To Repair" topics for software to help people keep running on systems that most people have stopped using. A relatively unusual approach particularly the "un-deprecating" of Windows XP by moving to the MinGW compiler and sticking only to C++11 features

"Every deprecation comes with a path forward for the user that already has it working"

A wild #blog post appears!

I discuss a new #research publication: an empirical evaluation of the #OpenBSD -fret-clean flag. We examine the history of the mitigation, measure its costs, and deliberate whether or not it is worth keeping.

Worth the read if you like security and/or compilers.

An alien ocean answers grief with a body instead of a sentence. A dream that never learns to negate. A mystic reaching God by subtracting every word. Solaris, Freudian dream-work, and apophatic theology land on the same collapse of propositional thought, from opposite directions.

Tribblix Milestone 41 for x86 released

Tribblix, the Illumos distribution focused on giving you a classic UNIX-style experience, has been updated with the release of Milestone 41. According to the release notes, it contains the latest security fixes from Illumos, but beyond that it's just a number of small point releases for certain components. Still, it's a new release, and Tribblix rocks, so her

Been playing (and really enjoying) #TheInvincible, so I am on a #StanislawLem reading kick. I'd only read the Kilmartin & Cox version of #Solaris, so now tackling the direct-from-Polish Bill Johnston translation.

I started with #Linux long after #Xenix on a #TRS80, #Irix on an #SGI, and #Solaris on a #Sparc so I guess I had a few pre-starts by the time I got to #SuSE.

Successfully ported the complete #LLVM stack (version 19.1.7, including llvm's binutils, clang, ldd) to #Solaris 11 Express (snv_151a) #SPARC. This build of #Solaris works on #SPARC machines that Solaris 11 GA (and later) do not support (example: sun4u workstations and servers), as well as machines that #Illumos does not support completely. This may allow for #Zig and #Rust to be ported to this version of Solaris on SPARC. Complete source archives, build instructions, and signed binaries in SVR4 package format (and soon, IPS) will be available for download. #Solaris #SPARC #retrocomputing #Illumos #Sunmicrosystems
