So that you know, this is the correct path to export AAVMF (counter-intuitively when comparing to x86-64):

https://gitlab.com/jarkkojs/linux-tpmdd-nixos/-/commit/f24224f0065df3376649e21492a1475f225d95e0

Took a while to figure this out :-)

Also figured out the appropriate options on macOS (with Apple Silicon) how to launch my build with QEMU:

# After doing docker compose up --build:
qemu-system-aarch64 -machine virt -cpu host -accel hvf -m 2G -nographic -bios output/firmware.fd -hda output/tpmdd-nixos.qcow2

I think I've now substituted my legacy BuildRoot environment with this NixOS based system, and gained some new benefits, such as being able to do aarch64 kernel development on macOS and test Rust kernel code.

Next up: send MAINTAINERS update (BuildRoot -> NixOS).

I guess my last week of holiday has been spent well :-)

@vbabka @ljs apparently i'm bad at interpreting numbers and bad at web forms. Here's the final truth ;-)

The bugs:

1. I forgot to add the second coupon. So we never know the truth.
2. PREZDAY25 was discounted from the full order not from the most expensive book.

Well.. Umh... Hmm... lol.

Well, in the end of the day this did not go so badly. I still got -30% instead -25%.

This is sometimes useful feature that is not very common but evolution has it :-)

I even have one inbox that requires it (infradead.org).

Got some books. The bottom one: I'm familiar with it just did not have my personal copy. Made sense to order it now as I pre-ordered Randal Hyde's (aka a living legend) new ARM edition: https://nostarch.com/art-arm-assembly-volume-1

I remember 2024 from this figure rather than economy figures ;-)

Noteworthy and exciting is the fact that 2024 bar is significantly higher than 2018 bar. Probably by the end of this year it is at minimum two times 2018 metrics.

I salute to this one (not Musk salute tho).

Attached to NT kernel ;-)

Preparatory steps:

  1. winget install microsoft.windbg
  2. Reboot and disable secure boot.
  3. bcdedit -debug on
  4. Reboot.

#windows #nt #kernel #debug

Maybe I'm a fool but personally I think that this thing called "integrity" is at the core of open source. Do as you say. LITERALLY.
