I ended up with:

ftrace {
	event.kprobes {
		tpm_transmit {
			filters = "common_pid < 2"
			probes = "tpm_transmit"
			hist {
				keys = stacktrace
			}
		}
	}
}
kernel {
	trace_buf_size = 1M
	trace_options = sym-addr
}

It gives me counts of stack exercised during the boot. I’d like to get latency calculation but I’m not really good at this so this can do for the time being.

The is held in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/tpm_end/hist.

I voted in the Linux Foundation TAB elections.

Since it is politics I can tell that my top three was Dan Williams, Dave Hansen and Kees Cook and for the rest I gave equal vote.

Wondering if there is a reason for not having kernel-command line parameter for passing bootconfig. #linux #kernel

Noticed by accident in aerc. By pressing 's' you get a vertical pane showing the message instead of having to open it by pressing enter. By pressing 'shift-s' you get a horizontal pane.

My pro tip for Amazon: if successful meetings are so important why not just require people to show up to those F2F?

I think staff would be more motivated with that constraint than enforced in-office weeks 🤷

Wow! Fedora Linux 41 beta today, _and_ twelve years at Red Hat for me!

After having MacBook Pro for 1.5 years from Tampere University picking the dev laptop for the new job was a no brainer options to pick being Macbook Pro or x86 Linux laptop.

MacOS is pure garbage a development environment. If you get one there is no other ways to make usable except installing Asahi Linux. Working with toolchains sucks, virtualization sucks and conceptually containers do not in reality exist.

I'm not even joking when I say that if i had picked Macbook Pro as my dev laptop for the new job it would statistically show in the performance reports over period of time as a negative impact. It just is super bad operating system for writing code.

I still love my personal Mac mini which is over-expensive audio plugin host :-) It does deliver in that task tho and works well also for watching Netflix.

Phew, it was nice to let all the hate for Macbook Pro out ;-) Piece of shit laptop tbh.

I was looking for something that would be a bit like Maple and Matlab for working as calculator, plotting and stuff like that but not as involved as those tools. After trying bunch of options I realized https://julialang.org/ is pretty much size-fit of this niche.

I like eBPF because it allows me to set conditions and measurement points so freely. A performance issue that took me some years ago two days to uncover takes now few hours. Improving tools brings so much more productivity than ChatGPT ever could.

I think I move my PR for v6.12 to late this week given that the getting performance improvements for TPM encryption are a priority to fix. Would not make sense to postpone them to v6.13 in my opinion.

First performance fixes for TPM HMAC encryption:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/D4727YOJY8KZ.L6RKMRBKRCSN@kernel.org/T/#m22ed621c65c75c75900fe77c6b963ac98eb1b624

I don't expect this to fully address the performance challenges. It is the first axis here. Other axis is the session creation but these are independent issues.

Two weeks after this left at Tampere University working in https://sochub.fi/. Not that much is going to change to because I'm still happily stuck at my home and working on RISC-V peculiarities. It's a broken CPU architecture still in my opinion but that's why also fun to work with :-)

I switched back to GNU screen from tmux :-) Color issues are gone in 5.0. I was using screen anyway all the time because it can do serial ports.

Cool, GNU Screen 5.0 is out [1].

Screen has its set of perks when compared to tmux:

  1. screen -L -dmS <session name> <command> (I’m aware of tmux pipe-pane but it is not atomic with the session creation).
  2. screen <serial port>
  3. Local layout for a session per client.

When doing kernel CI the first bullet can be sometimes particularly useful.
