Re: 80 users

I'm new to the OpenBSD source, so I welcome correction from someone who knows more. But, I'll put my neck out and attempt to give a basic tour of this aspect of the source. The maxusers entry in the config(8) file is where it all begins. http://man.openbsd.org/config.8 The figure of 80

80 users

As I recall, there is a build configuration of 80 users for some kernel components. What happens if the system exceeds that number?

Do not forget to use (activate) uBlock Origin too, there is in Add-Ons for Firefox. And one more thing, from this thread: > If you want to disable core dump for a program, you could (should ?) > configure your RLIMIT_CORE to 0. > > $ ulimit -c 0 > $ firefox > > Ah, yes. That's a much better

I recently installed -current on a Dell laptop my mother decided she didn’t want. I have the same problems with iwm0 on this machine (with its AC 3160 wireless device) as were reported for the 3165. The dmesg I’m reproducing below includes this error msg at the end: iwm0: hw rev 0x160, fw

Re: pledge for sockets

I think I found a way to configure the redis.conf to connect to redis through a unix socket instead, which will seem to clean up some stuff. If I need to later, I could probably spawn a process to relay commands from a unix socket to an inet socket that is limited to a single port through a

Re: pledge for sockets

I have a program that I believe needs inet to talk to a database(libhiredis). I do pass file descriptors to it. I don't suppose making it run as a different user and limiting the pf config would really lock it down without losing functionality. Maybe I'm too paranoid. On Sat, Apr 29, 2017 at 9:51

I can imagine pledge(2) becoming very complex if individual ports are blocked. It is not just the syscall, it's also the code in the kernel. From what I can gather, pledge is really to restrict processes to a subset of functions available, rather than restricting each individual argument, unless

Hi Jyri, would you mind sharing a dmesg with us, or at least any sort of general info in what environment you're experiencing these kinds of problems? Of course running a current chrome on an old iMac won't yield the same performance as running chrome on a laptop fresh out of the box, but the OS
