Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

- Poked mail, filed e-d-s valgrind trace. Back to iogrind, started
the groundwork for multi-process trace recording; managed to get the internal
structures sorted.
- Lunch, begun working on a scheduler & splitting out the I/O
accounting per-process. Decided to use threads to more closely model the
kernel behavior, and let one thread be blocked in the middle of reading
indirect inode 2 while another reads some directory block, without requiring
excessively asyncronous code. Got it to work for the pseudo-I/O 'test'
operation.
- More hacking, completely re-worked the simulator core, starting
to look nicely. Drove to Hove to see the parents. Up late talking to them
& Robert, fun.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
