backport fix for Pinnacle PCTV DVB-T tunner for Turris-OS official kernela project by sleep_walker I found recently that my DVB-T tunner plugged into Turris Omnia router gets a lot of I2C errors and sometimes divisions by zero. I wasn't able to reproduce it on my openSUSE box with 4.9 kernel so there is good chance that newer kernel contains fix (or it is architecture specific problem). |
Add testcases introduction for kernel testsuitesa project by yosun Since sometime we have limited time to file a bug, especially during daily review of testsuites result. Then some bugs are lake of introduction about what the testsuite are tested, it makes developer take more time to debug this issue.

build 32bit packages for x86_64 with better march/mtunean idea by sleep_walker 32bit packages for x86_64 are generated from i586 packages which are meant to be run on ancient CPUs. But we could have better expectations for 32bit packages as they're installed on x86_64 system. Building 32bit packages with better march/mtune could help with the performance of 32bit only packages like Steam. |

Integrate zeromq into crowbar-openstack as a alternative to rabbitmqa project by StevenK RabbitMQ is, in this hacker's opinion, hard to run, hard to scale, hard to debug, and difficult to run in a HA situation. ZeroMQ takes a different approach from the centralized broker model, and instead runs a daemon on every machine that needs to send or receive message over the bus, and communicates directly between machines. * Package up zeromq. |

kCFI Releasea project by jmoreira kCFI is a tool that enables the compilation of commodity Operating Systems with Control-Flow Integrity protection. kCFI first prototype was developed/implemented during a PhD program held in the University of Campinas, in Brazil. Although fully functional, the tool remains in a very experimental shape, needing to be refactored prior to being released. As kCFI consists in multiple tools, which include compiler plugins, kernel patches and binary analyzers, its deployment is considerably complex. Once code refactoring is finished, the next step consists in setting up proper repositories for the tool and for each submodule, along with scripts and documentation to enable easy configuration and compilation on new environments. |
Btrfs quotas improvementsan idea by winddss The problem with quotas is that the feature itself isn't yet mature. At least until very recently, and possibly still, quotas couldn't be depended upon to work correctly (various not entirely uncommon corner-cases would trigger negative numbers, etc), and even when they do work correctly, they simply don't scale well in combination with balance, check, etc -- that 10X difference isn't uncommon. Understanding the code in Btrfs quotas, give a analysis & improvement. |
GoldenDict popup flagan invention by xiaoguang_wang When GoldenDict enable scan popup functionality, if you want GoldenDict to show popup window, you need to select word by mouse and at same time press ALT or CTRL key.
