Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Building a unikernel that runs WebAssembly – part 1
You should also probably check out Unikraft (https://unikraft.org) , supports many languages/apps, x86/ARM64 and QEMU/Firecracker. Is also able to run an ELF built under Linux as a unikernel (see https://unikraft.org/guides/bincompat). Discord is at https://unikraft.org/discord .

What Is a Unikernel?
>"For performance-oriented UDP-based apps, much of the OS networking stack is useless:
the app could simply use the driver API, much like DPDK-style applications already do.
There is currently no way to easily remove just the network stack but not the entire network sub-system from standard OSes."
This page is a great read for any current or future OS developer...

A future without containers? ( thoughts )
Wow, just now seeing this topic. I work for a cloud company hosted in AWS. We started out, Netflix/Spotify style microservices. We were all on ec2 images generate by packer (and later with AWS Image Factory). When Docker hit, we kicked the tires but never did anything with it beyond using it for running unit tests, and later, infrastructure tests. 5 years ago, during a hackathon, our little group began experimenting with Unikernels, or library operating systems. Interestingly enough, these Unikernels were all stripped down BSD kernels. OSv is FreeBSD based, and Rumprun is NetBSD based. Services running in EC2 on Unikernels would spin up and start sending and receiving traffic before the AWS EC2 healthchecks completed. They are blazing fast! Only problem in 2017, was the tooling. It would have taken too much effort to use Unikernals with our infrastructure. As soon as they start making Unikernels that can run Java bytecode like native code, the fate of containerization will be sealed, IMO. We could get basic JVM webservers running on OSv, but not Cassandra, not Kafka, not yet. OSv now runs on Firecracker, but I have not tried it out, yet. Some links if you are interested: OSv: https://osv.io Rumprun: https://github.com/rumpkernel/rumprun We used this tooling during the Hackathon, but doesn't look like it has been touched in 3 years: https://github.com/solo-io/unik Unikraft Unikernel Dev kit: https://unikraft.org/ And don't forget Firecracker running in Kubernetes https://www.weave.works/oss/firekube/ And of course, being a FreeBSD subreddit, let's not forget FreeBSD on Firecracker https://www.daemonology.net/blog/2022-10-18-FreeBSD-Firecracker.html

OpenBSD System-Call Pinning
Well since https://www.openbsd.org/ still says

I'm assuming not, but I could always be mistaken.

From Nand to Tetris: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles
> building a cat from scratch
> That would be an interesting project.
Here is the source code of the OpenBSD implementation of cat:
> https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/bin/cat/cat.c
and here of the GNU coreutils implementation:
> https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/blob/master/src/cat.c
Thus: I don't think building a cat from scratch or creating a tutorial about that topic is particularly hard (even though the HN audience would likely be interested in it). :-)

OpenBSD – pinning all system calls
> I don't know how they define `MAX`, but I'm guessing it's a typical "a>b?a:b"
Indeed: https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/sys/sys/param.h#L...
> Then `SYS_kbind` seems to be a signed int.
It's an untyped #define: https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/sys/sys/syscall.h...
I believe your whole analysis is correct, that running an elf file with an openbsd.syscalls entry with .sysno > INT_MAX will allow an out-of-bounds write.

tmux causing ANSI color-response garbage on attaching?
I can reproduce it. And this is the commit that causes the issue: https://github.com/openbsd/src/commit/d21788ce70be80e9c4ed0c52c149e01147c4a823

Sudo-rs' first security audit
This doesn’t really change your conclusion, but I think that’s the wrong file. This is the real doas afaict: https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/usr.bin/doas/doas...
Still just a tidy 1072 lines in that folder though.
I spent 5 minutes staring at your file trying to understand how on earth it does the things in the man page, but of course it doesn’t.

OpenBSD: Removing syscall(2) from libc and kernel
OpenBSD developers are making serious effort to kill off indirect syscalls, the base system is completely clean, take a look at the work Andrew Fresh did to adapt Perl. He write a complete syscall "dispatcher" or emulator for the Perl syscall function so that it calls the libc stubs.
https://github.com/openbsd/src/commit/312e26c80be876012ae979...
The ports tree is also being cleansed of syscall(2) usage, until they're all gone.
msyscall, pinsyscall, recent mandatory IBT/BTI, xonly. OpenBSD is making waves, but people aren't really seeing them yet.
