@ariadne I took it later in the day, and it's crazy the things we take for granted. Leaving in the future is dope.

@elly that's actually an EU regulation above 50kw. Should already be in effect for any new installation. Otherwise they have until Jan 2027 to comply.

@elly in France, starting soon (don't know exactly), stations above a certain power will be required to accept card payment.

All aboard the #FOSDEM #train!

Picture from the train window. Still inside the train station.

@vaurora I imagine a conversation between graffitists:
— What's your name?
— Courage.
— Courage? Your tag is courage?
— I am Courage. And you can be too.

@jarkko It's not only DRM documentation, but all kernel documentation. We were just spearheading the whole thing originally.

Add this to path/to/source.c:

/**
* DOC: My cool overview
*
* (rst formatted documentation)
*/

And this to some .rst file under Documentation:

.. kernel-doc:: path/to/source.c
:doc: My cool overview

It'll slurp in the documentation from the source. Obvously you can also document functions etc. See the link below for more.

@ariadne welcome !

RE: https://mastodon.social/@amutable/115967747219090945

Today I'm super excited to announce Amutable, our new company together with @pid_eins and @blixtra.
I couldn't be happier to have @cyphar, @daandemeyer, @zbyszek, @pothos, @michaelvogt,
@rodrigo_rata, @davidstrauss as part of our team.
I've known them for a very long time and I'm very happy they are on board for the ride.
I can't wait to show everyone what we're building.
Made with ❤️ in Berlin.

>A fully functional sched_ext scheduler that makes real CPU scheduling decisions based on real-time planetary positions, zodiac signs, and astrological principles. This actually loads into the Linux kernel and schedules your system tasks. Because if the universe can influence our lives, why not our CPU scheduling too?

@jpetazzo @sturmsucht I dug into that a bit more, and the reason is the biggest shareholder belonging to an American billionaire of Russian origin, Len Blavatnik

@jarkko I know it's work in progress, and you have test programs, etc. What I see missing for somewhere in the next 777 rounds: a small doc of the API, and maybe a minimal test program creating an ultra simple video stream.

Let me present v4l2-vcam:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jarkko/linux-tpmdd.git/log/?h=vcam

Vcam user driver is created by opening /dev/vcam and then issuing V4L2_VCAM_IOC_NEW. This will emit /dev/videoX for readers. Reader semantics enforces single reader limitation.

In addition:

1. Supports zero-copy operation for a shared capture and output buffer (enabled automatically when possible).
2. Uses DMA contig allocator automatically when possible (falls back to vmalloc).
3. VB2 framework used for the pipeline.

These all are BTW unresolved in the OOT driver, and should help with getting better picture and frame rates over what we can do outside of kernel.

The code will code about 777 rounds of cleanups and tweaks and then I'll send the RFC patch ;-)

@englishroses_ je suis désolé mais en entendant cette nouvelle (les formations) je me suis plié de rire sous la douche. Sacré blague, j'aurai pas pu trouver mieux pour ne rien faire.

@ljs @sven I'd love to join! Keep me posted :-)
