Unlike Windows and Mac OS, which are rigidly defined by the companies that control them, Linux has an open source license that makes it easy to combine it with a custom set of applications and adapt it for different purposes. Compa- nies, nonprofit organizations, and even some individuals, maintain their own Linux dis- tros, each with slightly different goals and slightly different approaches. Linux distros are designed to work on servers, desktop sys- tems, mobile devices, and even embedded devices.

    Michal Srb OPTIMIZATION OF FONTCONFIG LIBRARY OPTIMIZATION OF FONTCONFIG LIBRARY Michal Srb Bachelor's Thesis Spring 2017 Information Technology Oulu University of Applied Sciences ABSTRACT Oulu University of Applied Sciences Degree Programme in Information Technology, Internet Services Author: Michal Srb Title of the bachelor’s thesis: Optimization of Fontconfig Library Supervisor: Teemu Korpela Term and year of completion: Spring 2017 Number of pages: 39 + 1 appendix Fontconfig is a library that manages a database of fonts on Linux systems. The aim of this Bachelor's thesis was to explore options for making it respond faster to application's queries. The library was identified as a bottleneck during the startup of graphical applications. The typical usage of the library by applications was analyzed and a set of standalone benchmarks were created. The library was profiled to identify hot spots and multiple optimizations were applied to it. It was determined that to achieve an optimal performance, a complete rewrite would be necessary. However, that could not be done while staying backward compatible. Nevertheless, the optimizations applied to the existing fontconfig yielded significant performance improvements, up to 98% speedups in benchmarks based on the real-world usage. Keywords: fontconfig, optimization, benchmarking, profiling 3 CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION 6 2 BACKGROUND 7 1.1 Motivation 7 1.2 Fontconfig 8 1.2.1 Function 9 1.2.2 Configuration 11 2 ANALYSIS 12 2.1 Main entry functions 12 2.1.1 FcFontMatch 12 2.1.2 FcFontSort 14 2.1.3

Librem 14 Features BIOS and EC Write Protection [3] We have been focused on BIOS security at Purism since the beginning, starting with our initiative to replace the proprietary BIOS on our first generation laptops with the open source coreboot project. This was a great first step as it not only meant customers could avoid proprietary code in line with Purism?s social purpose, it also meant the BIOS on Purism laptops could be audited for security bugs and possible backdoors to help avoid problems like the privilege escalation bug in Lenovo?s AMI firmware. Our next goal in BIOS security was to eliminate, replace or otherwise bypass the proprietary Intel Management Engine (ME) in our firmware. We have made massive progress on this front and our Librem laptops, Librem Mini, and Librem Server all ship with an ME that?s been disabled and neutralized. After that we shifted focus to protecting the BIOS against tampering.
  • KDE Plasma 5

    KDE Plasma 5

    Arvo Mägi KDE Plasma 5 Tallinn, 2017 1 Sissejuhatus KDE töökeskkonnale pani aluse saksa programmeerija Matthias Ettrich 14.10.1996. 2016. a oktoobris sai populaarne KDE seega 20. aastaseks. Hea ülevaate KDE ajaloost annab artikkel „19 Years of KDE History: Step by Step.” KDE 4.14 ilmumisega oli KDE saavutanud kasutusküpsuse, kuid edasine areng kippus takerduma – vaja oli põhimõttelisi uuendusi. Otsustati võtta kasutusele iseseisvatel moodulitel põhinev KDE 5 arhitektuur – Qt/Frameworks. Kõik KDE rakendusprogrammid, sh Plasma 5 töölaud, kasutavad ainult konkreetse rakenduse jaoks vajalikke mooduleid. Varem kasutati kõigi rakenduste jaoks ühist suurt teeki, mis raskendas muudatuste tegemist ja pidurdas arendustööd. Qt on C++ programmeerimiskeskkond. Pikaajalise toega Qt 5.9 LTS ilmus 31. mail 2017. KDE Frameworks on 70 moodulist koosnev komplekt, mis lihtsustab Qt keskkonnas KDE programmide koostamist. Frameworks veaparandused ja täiendused ilmuvad iga kuu. KDE Plasma 5 töölaud põhineb KDE Frameworksil (KF5). Töölaua veaparandused ilmuvad iga kuu, vajadusel mitu korda kuus, uued versioonid kord kvartalis. Plasma 5.8 LTS, mis on pikaajalise toega (18 kuud), ilmus 4.10.2016, veidi enne KDE 20. aastaseks saamist. Plasma 5.10 ilmus 30.05.2017. Järgmine pikaajalise toega Plasma 5.12 ilmub 2018. a jaanuaris. Plasma 5 töölaud on pälvinud palju kiitvaid hinnanguid ja sobib igapäevaseks tööks. Eeldab kaasaegset, mitme tuumaga protsessori ja piisava mäluga (vähemalt 4 GB) arvutit. SSD kettalt töötab välkkiirelt. Töölaud on keskkond rakendusprogrammide käivitamiseks ja kasutamiseks. KF5-le on üle viidud kõik KDE põhirakendused (failihaldur Dolphin, pildinäitaja Gwenview, konsool Konsole, teksti- redaktor Kate, ekraanitõmmise võtja Spectacle, videoredaktor Kdenlive, plaadikirjutaja K3b jt). Need on KDE Applications koosseisus, mille uued versioonid ilmuvad kolm korda aastas, veaparandused kord kuus.
