Round table
-----------

JJ
  - came to listen

MC
  - ext4 - worked on allowing larget blocksize for testing software RAID
performance
     - Linux does not support block size larger than page size

JZr
  - upgrade GCC version
  - worked a bit on IPC B (but now getting into new semsetre)
  - currently trying to come up with new VFS protocol
  - JJ: looked at your changes on Gitnhub and overall seems okay

MV
  - TLS fixes
  - continuing work on Rust thesis
  - now trying to come up with some Rust component that
    could be completely ported to HelenOS
  - compiler and standard library support done
  - the problem: many packages (dependencies) have platform-specific parts
  - e.g. something like Rust vesion of ImageMagick
  - or Rust compiler
  - this work does not contain anything arch-specific per se
  - did develop on amd64, now on ia32

JS
==
  - looked into Clang analyzer support
    - if your Clang build works, just add -fanalyzer and you are mostly
there
    - but if you configure HelenOS for Clang build, it still uses GCC (since
Meson switch)
       - fix is not trivial
  - Finished Shutdown dialog (shutdown confirmation)
  - Developed ACPI power off prototype using 'quick hack'
    - does not work (in Qemu) for reason not determined
    - need to read more ACPI spec to understand how much of ACPI must be
implemented to make the shutdown truly clean and reliable
