21: Every 6 months the OpenBSD project has the pleasure to release
22: software on an official CDROM set, with artwork and a matching song.
23: Ty Semaka (our artist) and Theo borrow and mutate some theme (from a
1.108 deraadt 24: classical setting, a movie, or some genre) into the fishy world of
25: Puffy, to describe some event or controversy the project went through
26: over the previous six months. To match the art released with the CD,
27: Ty and his friend Jonathan Lewis build the song and bring in
28: additional hired musicians from around Calgary. Theo then gets the
29: pleasure (and responsibility) to write a commentary explaining it all.

1.132 beck 157: Just as the original song professed its love for Brazil, "World,
158: you'll love my Linux" is the passionate call of an idealistic dreamer
159: who can't bear the thought of software that will only run under
160: Windows, and yet loves the situation with software that will only run
161: under particular Linux distributions.
162: <p>
163: This problem has proliferated itself into the standards bodies, with
164: Posix adopting Linuxisms ahead of any other variant of Unix.
165: <p>
166: Posix and Unix have made it where you can write reasonably portable
167: software and have it compile and run across a multitude of platforms.
168: Now this seems to be changing as the love for Linux drives the
169: standards bodies into accepting everything Linux, good and bad.
170: <p>
171: We also are faced with groups writing software that only works
172: with particular distributions of Linux. From this we get software that
173: not only isn't very portable, but often not particularly stable. Our
174: idealistic dreamer in the song loves running one, or more than one distribution
175: of Linux for a particular purpose. Unfortunately, the rest of us are left
176: with the unattractive choice of doing the same, or relying on
177: herculean efforts to port software that is being actively developed in a
178: way to discourage porting it to other platforms.

540: This release is OpenBSD 4.9. Then why is
541: the song about 4.2? Huh?<br>
542: <br>
543: The <a href="#44">OpenBSD 4.4 release artwork</a> honoured
544: the (Berkeley) CSRG guys for their efforts with the BSD 4.4
545: release -- they fought and managed to free the code.<br>
546: <br>
547: This release the artwork is based on the stories of Douglas Adams,
548: including his favorite number -- 42. Therefore we can remember
549: the previous major achievement of CSRG - BSD 4.2.<br>
550: <br>
551: BSD 4.2 was
552: not free, but it created and integrated so many new
553: technologies that we all depend on today. Take a moment
554: to consider how many things first available in BSD 4.2 you are using
555: at this moment, to read this page -- sockets, AF_INET,
556: virtual memory, etc.<br>
557: <br>
558: Today, new releases of operating systems from well-known vendors
559: contain less new features than BSD 4.2 did.<br>
560: <br>
561: If only we could stop slacking and make a release like that!

982: Nearly 10 years ago Kirk McKusick wrote a history of
983: the Berkeley Unix distributions for the
1.121 deraadt 984: O'Reilly book "Open Sources: Voices from the Open Source Revolution".
1.104 deraadt 985: We recommend you read his story, entitled
986: <a href="http://oreilly.com/catalog/opensources/book/kirkmck.html">
987: "Twenty Years of Berkeley Unix
988: From AT&T-Owned to Freely Redistributable"</a>
989: first, to see how Kirk remembers how we got here.
990: Sadly, since it showed up in book form originally, this text has
991: probably not been read by enough people.
992: <br>
993: <br>
994: The USL(AT&T) vs BSDI/UCB court case settlement documents were
995: not public until recently; their disclosure has made the facts more clear.
996: But the story of how three people decided to free the BSD codebase
997: of corporate pollution -- and release it freely -- is more interesting
998: than the lawsuit which followed. Sure, a stupid lawsuit happened which
999: hindered the acceptance of the BSD code during a critical period.
1000: But how did a bunch of guys go through the effort of replacing so
1001: much AT&T code in the first place? After all, companies had
1002: lots of really evil lawyers back then too -- were they not afraid?
1003: <br>
1004: <br>
1005: After a decade of development, most of the AT&T code had
1006: already been replaced by university researchers and their associates.
1007: So Keith Bostic, Mike Karels and Kirk McKusick (the main UCB CSRG group)
1008: started going through the 4.3BSD codebase to cleanse the rest.
1009: Keith, in particular, built a ragtag team (in those days, USENIX
1010: conferences were a gold mine for such team building) and led these
1011: rebels to rewrite and replace all the Imperial AT&T code, piece by
1012: piece, starting with the libraries and userland programs.
1013: Anyone who helped only got credit as a Contributor -- people like
1014: Chris Torek and a cast of .. hundreds more.
1015: <br>
1016: <br>
1.105 deraadt 1017: Then Mike and Kirk purified the kernel. After a bit more careful
1.104 deraadt 1018: checking, this led to the release of a clean tree called Net/2 which
1019: was given to the world in June 1991 -- the largest dump of free source
1020: code the world had ever received (for those days -- not modern monsters like OpenOffice).
1021: <br>
1022: <br>
1023: Some of these ragtags formed a company (BSDi) to sell a production system
1024: based on this free code base, and a year later Unix System Laboratories
1025: (basically AT&T) sued BSDi and UCB.
1026: Eventually AT&T lost and after a few trifling fixes (described in the
1027: lawsuit documents) the codebase was free. A few newer developments
1028: (and more free code) were added, and released in June 1994 as 4.4BSD-Lite.
1029: Just over 14 years later OpenBSD is releasing its own 4.4 release (and for
1030: a lot less than <a href=orders.html>$1000 per copy</a>).
1031: <br>
1032: <br>
1033: The OpenBSD 4.4 release is dedicated to Keith Bostic, Mike Karels, Kirk McKusick,
1034: and all of those who contributed to making Net/2 and 4.4BSD-Lite free.

1156: In 1998 when a United Airlines plane was waiting in the queue at
1.102 deraadt 1157: Washington Dulles International Airport for take-off to New Orleans
1158: (where a Usenix conference was taking place), one man stood up from
1159: his seat, demanded that they stop waiting in the queue and be permitted
1.95 deraadt 1160: to deplane. Even after orders from the crew and a pilot from
1161: the cockpit he refused to sit down. The plane exited the queue
1.96 deraadt 1162: and returned to the airport gangway. Security personnel ran onto
1.95 deraadt 1163: the plane and removed this man, Richard Stallman, from the plane.
1164: After Richard was removed from the plane, everyone else stayed
1165: onboard and continued their journey to New Orleans. A few
1166: OpenBSD developers were on that same plane, seated very closeby,
1167: so we have an accurate story of the events.
1168: <br>
1169: <br>
1170: This is the man who presumes that he should preach to us
1171: about morality, freedom, and what is best for us. He believes
1172: it is his God-given role to tell us what is best for us, when he
1173: has shown that he takes actions which are not best for everyone.
1174: He prefers actions which he thinks are best for him -- and him
1175: alone -- and then lies to the public. Richard Stallman is no Spock.
1176: <br>
1177: <br>
1178: We release our software in ways that are maximally free. We
1179: remove all restrictions on use and distribution, but leave a
1180: requirement to be known as the authors. We follow a pattern of
1181: free source code distribution that started in the mid-1980's
1182: in Berkeley, from before Richard Stallman had any powerful
1183: influence which he could use so falsely.
1184: <br>
1185: <br>
1186: We have a development sub-tree called "ports". Our "ports" tree
1187: builds software that is 'found on the net' into packages that
1188: OpenBSD users can use more easily. A scaffold of Makefiles and
1189: scripts automatically fetch these pieces of software, apply
1190: patches as required by OpenBSD, and then build them into nice
1191: neat little tarballs. This is provided as a convenience for
1.97 okan 1192: users. The ports tree is maintained by OpenBSD entirely separately
1.95 deraadt 1193: from our main source tree. Some of the software which is fetched
1194: and compiled is not as free as we would like, but what can we do.
1195: All the other operating system projects make exactly the same
1196: decision, and provide these same conveniences to their users.
1197: <br>
1198: <br>
1199: Richard felt that this "ports tree" of ours made OpenBSD non-free.
1200: He came to our mailing lists and lectured to us specifically, yet
1201: he said nothing to the many other vendors who do the same; many of
1202: them donate to the FSF and perhaps that has something to do with it.
1203: Meanwhile, Richard has personally made sure that all the official
1204: GNU software -- including Emacs -- compiles and runs on Windows.
1205: <br>
1206: <br>
1207: That man is a false leader. He is a hypocrite. There may be some
1208: people who listen to him. But we don't listen to people who do not
1209: follow their own stupid rules.

1309: Those of us who work on OpenBSD are often asked why we do what we do.
1.91 merdely 1310: This song's lyrics express the core motivations and goals which have
1.90 deraadt 1311: remained unchanged over the years - secure, free, reliable software,
1312: that can be shared with anyone. Many other projects purport to share
1313: these same goals, and love to wrap themselves in a banner of "Open
1314: Source" and "Free Software". Given how many projects there are one
1315: would think it might be easy to stick to those goals, but it doesn't
1316: seem to work out that way. A variety of desires drag many projects
1317: away from the ideals very quickly.
1318: <p>
1.93 jmc 1319: Much of any operating system's usability depends on device support,
1.91 merdely 1320: and there are some very tempting alternative ways to support devices
1.90 deraadt 1321: available to those who will surrender their moral code. A project
1322: could compromise by entering into NDA agreements with vendors, or
1323: including binary objects in the operating system for which no source
1324: code exists, or tying their users down with contract terms hidden
1325: inside copyright notices. All of these choices surrender some subset
1326: of the ideals, and we simply will not do this. Sure, we care about
1327: getting devices working, but not at the expense of our original goals.
1328: <p>
1329: Of course since "free to share with anyone" is part of our goals,
1330: we've been at the forefront of many licensing and NDA issues,
1.91 merdely 1331: resulting in a good number of successes. This success had led to much
1.90 deraadt 1332: recognition for the advancement of Free Software causes, but has also
1333: led to other issues.
1334: <p>
1335: We fully admit that some BSD licensed software has been taken and used
1336: by many commercial entities, but contributions come back more often
1337: than people seem to know, and when they do, they're always still
1338: properly attributed to the original authors, and given back in the
1339: same spirit that they were given in the first place.
1340: <p>
1341: That's the best we can expect from companies. After all, we make our
1342: stuff so free so that everyone can benefit -- it remains a core goal;
1343: we really have not strayed at all in 10 years. But we can expect more
1344: from projects who talk about sharing -- such as the various Linux
1345: projects.
1346: <p>
1347: Now rather than seeing us as friends who can cooperatively improve all
1348: codebases, we are seen as foes who oppose the GPL. The participants
1349: of "the race" are being manipulated by the FSF and their legal arm, the
1350: SFLC, for the FSF's aims, rather than the goal of getting good source
1351: into Linux (and all other code bases). We don't want this to come off
1352: as some conspiracy theory, but we simply urge those developers caution
1353: -- they should ensure that the path they are being shown by those who
1354: have positioned themselves as leaders is still true. Run for yourself,
1355: not for their agenda.
1356: <p>
1357: The Race is there to be run, for ourselves, not for others. We do
1358: what we do to run our own race, and finish it the best we can. We
1359: don't rush off at every distraction, or worry how this will affect our
1360: image. We are here to have fun doing right.

1463: As developers of a free operating system, one of our prime responsibilities
1464: is device support. No matter how nice an operating system is, it remains
1465: useless and unusable without solid support for a wide percentage of the
1466: hardware that is available on the market. It is therefore rather unsurprising
1467: that more than half of our efforts focus on various aspects relating to
1468: device support.
1469: <p>
1.85 mbalmer 1470: Most parts of the operating system (from low kernel, through to libraries,
1.81 deraadt 1471: all the way up to X, and then even to applications) use fairly obvious
1472: interface layers, where the "communication protocols" or "argument passing"
1473: mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be understood by any developer who takes the
1474: time to read the free code. Device drivers pose an additional and significant
1475: challenge though: because many vendors refuse to document the exact behavior
1476: of their devices. The devices are black boxes. And often they are surprisingly
1477: weird, or even buggy.
1478: <p>
1479: When vendor documentation does not exist, the development process can
1480: become extremely hairy. Groups of developers have found themselves focused
1481: for months at a time, figuring out the most simple steps, simply because
1482: the hardware is a complete mystery. Access to documentation can ease
1483: these difficulties rapidly. However, getting access to the chip documentation
1484: from vendors is ... almost always a negotiation. If we had open access to
1.84 matthieu 1485: documentation, anyone would be able to see how simple all these devices
1.81 deraadt 1486: actually are, and device driver development would flourish (and not just in
1487: OpenBSD, either).
1488: <p>
1489: When we proceed into negotiations with vendors, asking for documentation,
1490: our position is often weak. One would assume that the modern market is fair,
1491: and that selling chips would be the primary focus of these vendors. But
1492: unfortunately a number of behemoth software vendors have spent the last 10 or
1493: 20 years building

1496: <p>
1.82 jsg 1497: A particularly nasty player in this regard has been the Linux vendors and
1.87 tom 1498: some Linux developers, who have played along with an American corporate model
1.81 deraadt 1499: of requiring NDAs for chip documentation. This has effectively put Linux
1500: into the club with Microsoft, but has left all the other operating system
1501: communities -- and their developers -- with much less available clout for
1502: requesting documentation. In a more fair world, the Linux vendors would
1503: work with us, and the device driver support in all free operating systems
1504: would be fantastic by now.

1858: OpenBSD emphasizes security. It also emphasizes openness. All the code
1859: is there for all to see. Blobs are vendor-compiled binary drivers
1860: without any source code. Hardware makers like them because they
1861: obscure the details of how to make their hardware work. They hide bugs
1862: and workarounds for bugs. Newer versions of blobs can weaken support
1863: for older hardware and motivate people to buy new hardware.<br>
1864: <br>
1865: <br>
1866: Blobs are expedient. Many other open source operating systems
1867: cheerfully incorporate them; in fact their users demand them.<br>
1868: <br>
1869: <br>
1870: But when you need to trust the system, how do you check the blob for
1871: quality? For adherence to standards? How do you know the blob contains
1872: no malicious code? No incompetent code? Inspection is impossible; you
1873: can only test the black box. And when it breaks, you have no idea why.<br>
1874: <br>
1875: <br>
1876: <ul>
1877: <li>Blobs can be 'de-supported' by vendors<br>
1878: at any time.<br>
1879: <br>
1880: <li>Blobs cannot be supported by developers.<br>
1881: <br>
1882: <li>Blobs cannot be fixed by developers.<br>
1883: <br>
1884: <li>Blobs cannot be improved.<br>
1885: <br>
1886: <li>Blobs cannot be audited.<br>
1887: <br>
1888: <li>
1889: Blobs are specific to an architecture, thus<br>
1890: less portable.<br>
1891: <br>
1892: <li>Blobs are quite often massively bloated.<br>
1893: </ul>
1894: <br>

1896: This release, like every OpenBSD release, contains OpenBSD and its
1897: source code. It runs on a wide variety of hardware. It contains many
1898: new features and improvements. OpenBSD does attempt to convince
1899: vendors to release documentation, and often reverse-engineers around
1900: the need for blobs. OpenBSD remains blob-free. Anyone can look at it,
1901: assess it, improve it. If it breaks, it can be fixed.

2042: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
2043: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
2044: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
2045: their devices.
2046: <p>
2047: Take Adaptec for instance. Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
2048: for the
1.70 steven 2049: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=aac&sektion=4">aac(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 2050: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
2051: They refused to give us documentation. Without documentation, support
2052: for their controller had always been poor. The driver had bugs (which
2053: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
2054: course there was no RAID management support. Apparently most of these
1.59 jolan 2055: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
2056: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
2057: cannot solve these issues.
1.58 deraadt 2058: <p>
2059: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
2060: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee. But no
2061: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
2062: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
2063: development model -- it becomes very hard for the principle of
2064: "quality" to show its head.
2065: <p>
2066: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
2067: <br>
2068: <ul>
1.60 pvalchev 2069: <li>Redundancy
1.58 deraadt 2070: <li>Repair
2071: </ul>
2072: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60 pvalchev 2073: fail, your data is not lost. But once a drive has failed, you require your
2074: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58 deraadt 2075: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
2076: <p>
2077: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
2078: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
2079: so that their devices could support Redundancy. But these vendors have
2080: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
2081: <p>
2082: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
2083: tools. These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67 jolan 2084: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58 deraadt 2085: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
2086: <p>
2087: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
2088: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
2089: the AMI controllers.
2090: <p>
2091: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
2092: rather simple primitives. This is all that we need to implement
2093: basic RAID management:
2094: <ul>
2095: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
2096: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
2097: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
2098: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
2099: </ul>
2100: <p>
2101: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
2102: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
2103: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
2104: <p>
2105: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
2106: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
2107: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
2108: <p>
1.60 pvalchev 2109: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
2110: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58 deraadt 2111: controllers now. And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
2112: may mean we can never get documentation for the
1.70 steven 2113: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=gdt&sektion=4">gdt(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 2114: controllers.
2115: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
2116: would not get documentation, either.
2117: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
2118: look saintly.
2119: <p>
2120: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
2121: in OpenBSD, please buy
2122: <a href="http://www.lsilogic.com/products/megaraid/index.html">LSI/AMI</a>

2220: For an operating system to get anywhere in "the market" it must have
2221: good device support.<br>
2222: <br>
2223: Ethernet was our first concern. Many vendors refused to supply
2224: programmers with programming documentation for these chipsets. Donald
2225: Becker (Linux) and Bill Paul (FreeBSD) changed the rules of the game
2226: here: They wrote drivers for the chipsets that they could get
2227: documentation for, and as they succeeded in writing more and more
2228: drivers, eventually closed vendors slowly opened up until most
2229: ethernet chipset documentation was available. Today, some vendors
2230: still resist releasing ethernet chipset documentation (ie. Broadcom,
1.62 brad 2231: Intel, Marvell/SysKonnect, NVIDIA) but the driver problem is mostly
1.46 henning 2232: solved in the ethernet market.<br>
1.44 deraadt 2233: <br>
2234: Similar problems have happened in the SCSI, IDE, and RAID markets.
2235: Again, the problem was solved by writing drivers for documented
2236: devices first. If the free software user communities use those drivers
2237: preferentially, it is a market loss for the secretive vendors.
2238: Another approach that has worked is to publish email addresses and

2241: <br>
2242: The new frontier: 802.11 wireless chipsets.<br>
2243: <br>
2244: Over the last six months, this came to a head in the OpenBSD project.
2245: We asked our users to help us petition numerous vendors so that we
2246: could get chipset documentation or redistributable firmware. Certainly, we did
1.52 deraadt 2247: not succeed for some vendors. But we did influence some vendors, in
1.44 deraadt 2248: particular the Taiwanese (Ralink and Realtek), who have given us
2249: everything we need. We also reverse engineered the Atheros chipsets.<br>
2250: <br>
2251:
2252: Want to help us? Avoid
2253: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ipw">Intel Centrino</a>,
2254: Broadcom, TI, or Connexant PrismGT chipsets.
2255: Heck, avoid buying even regular
1.48 deraadt 2256: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=wi">old pre-G Prism products</a>,
1.44 deraadt 2257: to send a message.
1.48 deraadt 2258: If you can, buy 802.11 products using chips by
1.44 deraadt 2259: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=rtw">Realtek</a>,
2260: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ral">Ralink</a>,
2261: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=atu">Atmel</a>,

2263: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ath">Atheros</a>.
2264: Our manual pages attempt to explain which vendors (ie. D-Link) box
1.52 deraadt 2265: which chipsets into which product.
1.44 deraadt 2266: <br>
2267: <br>
2268: Send a message that open support for hardware matters. A vendor in
1.56 cloder 2269: Redmond largely continues their practices because they get
1.44 deraadt 2270: the chipset documentation years before everyone else does.
2271: What really upsets us the most is that some Linux vendors are signing
2272: Non-Disclosure Agreements with vendors, or contracts that let them
2273: distribute firmwares. Meanwhile both Linux and FSF head developers
1.49 nick 2274: are not asking their communities to help us in our efforts to free
1.44 deraadt 2275: development information for all, but are even going further and
2276: telling their development communities to not work with us at
2277: pressuring vendors. It is ridiculous.

2381: What is up with some free software providers?!
2382: They say "Here's something free! Oh wait, I changed my mind."
2383: <p>
2384: While not exactly bait-and-switch, this is something which
2385: has been causing the community continual grief, and therefore
2386: we decided to honour a few of the projects that have decided
1.41 deraadt 2387: to go non-free. After all.. having gone non-free, no one is
1.37 deraadt 2388: going to remember them in the end.
2389: <p>
2390: This song is dedicated to a few worthy groups who
2391: have made this Free-to-Non-Free transition with their
2392: offerings in the last few years:
2393: <ul>
2394: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
2395: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
2396: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
2397: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that
2398: we must give him more credit (ie. advertise his name) or
2399: stop using it. Within about 4 months every project had
2400: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a
2401: replacement effort.
1.41 deraadt 2402: Now his team cannot even keep their web pages up to date...
1.37 deraadt 2403: <p>
2404: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
2405: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
2406: that we chose. But a few years later he told us that we
2407: were not free to make changes to the code. So we deleted ipf,
2408: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
2409: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
2410: <p>
2411: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
2412: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
2413: web server of dubious quality. But the years have changed them,
2414: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40 jolan 2415: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51 jcs 2416: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within. Legal terms
1.37 deraadt 2417: protect. Who are they protecting? Not your freedom.
2418: </ul>
2419: So here's a goodbye to those three groups, and a warning to any
2420: others who will follow them:
2421: Make your stuff non-free, and something else will
2422: replace it.

2546: A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
2547: and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
2548: themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
2549: redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
2550: Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
2551: <p>
2552: We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
2553: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
2554: and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
2555: firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
2556: them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
2557: sessions. Our
2558: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
2559: protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
2560: it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
2561: network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
2562: firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
2563: the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
2564: <p>
2565: The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
2566: 90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
2567: Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
2568: Redundancy Protocol); on
2569: <a href="http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
2570: March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
2571: "Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
2572: that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
2573: standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
2574: IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
2575: though there was a patent in the space. Why?
1.122 deraadt 2576: <a href="http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/doc/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
1.30 deraadt 2577: There was much deliberation</a>
2578: at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
2579: politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
2580: standards -- as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
2581: (Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
2582: programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
2583: RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
2584: the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
2585: and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
2586: eh?
2587: <p>
2588: Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
2589: (HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
2590: recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
2591: -- a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
2592: claim patent rights.
2593: <p>
2594: On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
2595: lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
2596: its patents for VRRP implementations -- meaning basically that it was
2597: impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
2598: implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
2599: Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
2600: small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
2601: against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
2602: members took note of our complaints,
1.122 deraadt 2603: <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20061109082106/http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
1.30 deraadt 2604: however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
2605: patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
2606: <p>
2607: A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
2608: to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
2609: and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
2610: backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
2611: avoid it -- the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
1.55 tom 2612: participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
1.30 deraadt 2613: Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
2614: is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
2615: like all others, except against the community.
2616: <p>
2617: Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
2618: benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
2619: <p>
2620: Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
2621: correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
2622: designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
2623: problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
2624: same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
2625: document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
2626: We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
2627: lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
2628: it to use cryptography.
2629: <p>
2630: The combination of
2631: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
2632: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
2633: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
2634: has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
2635: have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
2636: running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
2637: group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
2638: our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
2639: to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
2640: this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
2641: <p>
2642: As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
2643: regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
2644: for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
2645: to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
2646: were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
2647: anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
2648: We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
2649: these decisions, but they declined to reply.
2650: <p>
2651: This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
2652: this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

1.26 deraadt 2944: the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
1.20 deraadt 2945: forces of the draconian government!
2946: <p>
2947: <br>
2948: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
2949: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
2950: of recent happenings.
2951: <p>
2952: Two years ago we became involved with the University
2953: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
2954: security research and development .. on things that
2955: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
2956: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
2957: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
2958: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
2959: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
2960: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
2961: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21 deraadt 2962: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 2963: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
2964: <p>
2965: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
2966: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
2967: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
2968: obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
1.67 jolan 2969: this sudden maneuver. Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20 deraadt 2970: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55 tom 2971: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20 deraadt 2972: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
2973: theft of oil.
2974: <p>
2975: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
2976: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
2977: <p>
2978: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
2979: project, and due to world events and the evolving
2980: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
2981: the Government on April 21 advised the University
2982: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
2983: the project."
2984: <p>
2985: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
2986: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
2987: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
2988: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
2989: <p>
2990: Since the termination came near natural contract
2991: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
2992: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
2993: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
2994: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61 grunk 2995: proceeded as planned. We even had T-shirts made with
1.20 deraadt 2996: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
2997: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
2998: <p>
2999: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
3000: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
3001: of Robin Hood.
