Your executable is a SQLite database
AI summary
Tác giả đã lâu nghiên cứu Nix như công cụ để tái tạo toàn bộ hệ thống và đồng thời suy nghĩ thay thế định dạng ELF bằng SQLite cho file thực thi. Anh ta nhận thấy SQLite là một cơ sở dữ liệu nhẹ, hỗ trợ lưu trữ blob và metadata có thể được truy cập trực tiếp mà không cần bước giải nén hay liên kết truyền thống. Khi đóng gói mã máy và các tài nguyên vào các bảng SQLite, file thực thi trở thành một đơn vị tự chứa, dễ dàng sao chép, phiên bản và kiểm tra tính toàn vẹn bằng các truy vấn SQL. Điều này cho thấy lợi ích của việc sử dụng định dạng dữ liệu phổ biến làm carrier cho code, mở đường cho các hệ thống xây dựng tái tạo như Nix có thể xử lý thực thi như bất kỳ artifact khác. Nó cũng gợi ý rằng các công cụ quản lý gói và môi trường có thể được đơn giản hóa khi định dạng thực thi tương thích với các công cụ truy vấn và sao chép hiện có.

What is malloc doing, anyway?
malloc has a very nice and simple interface: you ask for a certain amount of memory, and you’re given a void pointer to your block of contiguous bytes that’s been magicked into existence. Once you’re done with it, you call free with the same pointer and the memory disappears into the ether.

Linux 7.4-rc2 Released With FAT32 Optimization, AMDGPU HDMI 2.2 Improvement
Linus Torvalds released Linux 7.4-rc2, calling it a big rc2 following the largest ever rc1. The release includes a notable FAT32 performance improvement, especially for synchronous mounts, AMDGPU driver fixes for HDMI 2.2 FRL, and numerous fixes for long-standing core memory management bugs. Torvalds noted the diffstat looks benign and is largely driven by automated coccinelle script updates that add noise, and that AI-generated fixes and bug reports continue to pour in. He said Alexei claims fixes on the bpf side are now coming in faster than new reports. Linux 7.4 is aiming for a stable release around the end of December.
