20: Every 6 months the OpenBSD project has the pleasure to release
21: software on an official CDROM set, with artwork and a matching song.
1.139 deraadt 22: Theo and some other developers mutate a theme (from a classical
23: setting, a movie, or some genre) into the fishy world of Puffy, to
24: describe some advance, event or controversy the project went through
1.108 deraadt 25: over the previous six months. To match the art released with the CD,
1.139 deraadt 26: we join up with some musicians we know to make a song. Theo then gets
27: the pleasure (and responsibility) to write a commentary explaining it all.

259: In January of 2038, 32-bit Unix time will overflow and wrap
260: back to 1901. This is known as the
261: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem">Year 2038 problem</a>.
262: POSIX operating systems have made strong inroads into embedded
263: roles, so this is anticipated to be substantially worse than the Y2K transition.
264: <p>
1.146 guenther 265: In August of 2012, Philip Guenther started the OpenBSD work to
266: solve this.
267: After a year of work it was ready enough for merging, and in August 2013
268: the <b>time_t</b> type was changed to int64_t on all
269: platforms and the kernel and userland were adapted to the new
270: situation. The initial work was committed right after OpenBSD 5.4,
271: then polished in tree over the next 6 months.
1.144 deraadt 272: <p>
273: The next part of the process was to drag the "ports" software
1.146 guenther 274: ecosystem along because no one else had paved the way for 32-bit
1.144 deraadt 275: machines to run with 64-bit <b>time_t</b>. This required a fair
276: bit of upstream involvement. Thousands of fixes were required to
277: make both 32-bit and 64-bit time work transparently. There will
278: be more fixing in the future, but the concept is proven.
279: <p>
280: In the past OpenBSD pushed risky theoretical ideas into mainstream
281: software practice by proving the ecosystem was ready to change.
282: No OS wants to make a ABI jump until the case for change is proven.
283: Stack protection, ASLR, and W^X principles are now in common use
284: by mainline operating systems... because things like Firefox
285: and Postgresql don't break anymore. OpenBSD built that route.
286: <p>
287: In the same way, the road is paved for the 64-bit <b>time_t</b>
288: transition. Other operating systems can now make this jump.

1.132 beck 461: Just as the original song professed its love for Brazil, "World,
462: you'll love my Linux" is the passionate call of an idealistic dreamer
463: who can't bear the thought of software that will only run under
464: Windows, and yet loves the situation with software that will only run
465: under particular Linux distributions.
466: <p>
467: This problem has proliferated itself into the standards bodies, with
468: Posix adopting Linuxisms ahead of any other variant of Unix.
469: <p>
470: Posix and Unix have made it where you can write reasonably portable
471: software and have it compile and run across a multitude of platforms.
472: Now this seems to be changing as the love for Linux drives the
473: standards bodies into accepting everything Linux, good and bad.
474: <p>
475: We also are faced with groups writing software that only works
476: with particular distributions of Linux. From this we get software that
477: not only isn't very portable, but often not particularly stable. Our
478: idealistic dreamer in the song loves running one, or more than one distribution
479: of Linux for a particular purpose. Unfortunately, the rest of us are left
480: with the unattractive choice of doing the same, or relying on
481: herculean efforts to port software that is being actively developed in a
482: way to discourage porting it to other platforms.

1276: Nearly 10 years ago Kirk McKusick wrote a history of
1277: the Berkeley Unix distributions for the
1.121 deraadt 1278: O'Reilly book "Open Sources: Voices from the Open Source Revolution".
1.104 deraadt 1279: We recommend you read his story, entitled
1280: <a href="http://oreilly.com/catalog/opensources/book/kirkmck.html">
1281: "Twenty Years of Berkeley Unix
1282: From AT&T-Owned to Freely Redistributable"</a>
1283: first, to see how Kirk remembers how we got here.
1284: Sadly, since it showed up in book form originally, this text has
1285: probably not been read by enough people.
1286: <br>
1287: <br>
1288: The USL(AT&T) vs BSDI/UCB court case settlement documents were
1289: not public until recently; their disclosure has made the facts more clear.
1290: But the story of how three people decided to free the BSD codebase
1291: of corporate pollution -- and release it freely -- is more interesting
1292: than the lawsuit which followed. Sure, a stupid lawsuit happened which
1293: hindered the acceptance of the BSD code during a critical period.
1294: But how did a bunch of guys go through the effort of replacing so
1295: much AT&T code in the first place? After all, companies had
1296: lots of really evil lawyers back then too -- were they not afraid?
1297: <br>
1298: <br>
1299: After a decade of development, most of the AT&T code had
1300: already been replaced by university researchers and their associates.
1301: So Keith Bostic, Mike Karels and Kirk McKusick (the main UCB CSRG group)
1302: started going through the 4.3BSD codebase to cleanse the rest.
1303: Keith, in particular, built a ragtag team (in those days, USENIX
1304: conferences were a gold mine for such team building) and led these
1305: rebels to rewrite and replace all the Imperial AT&T code, piece by
1306: piece, starting with the libraries and userland programs.
1307: Anyone who helped only got credit as a Contributor -- people like
1308: Chris Torek and a cast of .. hundreds more.
1309: <br>
1310: <br>
1.105 deraadt 1311: Then Mike and Kirk purified the kernel. After a bit more careful
1.104 deraadt 1312: checking, this led to the release of a clean tree called Net/2 which
1313: was given to the world in June 1991 -- the largest dump of free source
1314: code the world had ever received (for those days -- not modern monsters like OpenOffice).
1315: <br>
1316: <br>
1317: Some of these ragtags formed a company (BSDi) to sell a production system
1318: based on this free code base, and a year later Unix System Laboratories
1319: (basically AT&T) sued BSDi and UCB.
1320: Eventually AT&T lost and after a few trifling fixes (described in the
1321: lawsuit documents) the codebase was free. A few newer developments
1322: (and more free code) were added, and released in June 1994 as 4.4BSD-Lite.
1323: Just over 14 years later OpenBSD is releasing its own 4.4 release (and for
1324: a lot less than <a href=orders.html>$1000 per copy</a>).
1325: <br>
1326: <br>
1327: The OpenBSD 4.4 release is dedicated to Keith Bostic, Mike Karels, Kirk McKusick,
1328: and all of those who contributed to making Net/2 and 4.4BSD-Lite free.

1449: In 1998 when a United Airlines plane was waiting in the queue at
1.102 deraadt 1450: Washington Dulles International Airport for take-off to New Orleans
1451: (where a Usenix conference was taking place), one man stood up from
1452: his seat, demanded that they stop waiting in the queue and be permitted
1.95 deraadt 1453: to deplane. Even after orders from the crew and a pilot from
1454: the cockpit he refused to sit down. The plane exited the queue
1.96 deraadt 1455: and returned to the airport gangway. Security personnel ran onto
1.95 deraadt 1456: the plane and removed this man, Richard Stallman, from the plane.
1457: After Richard was removed from the plane, everyone else stayed
1458: onboard and continued their journey to New Orleans. A few
1459: OpenBSD developers were on that same plane, seated very closeby,
1460: so we have an accurate story of the events.
1461: <br>
1462: <br>
1463: This is the man who presumes that he should preach to us
1464: about morality, freedom, and what is best for us. He believes
1465: it is his God-given role to tell us what is best for us, when he
1466: has shown that he takes actions which are not best for everyone.
1467: He prefers actions which he thinks are best for him -- and him
1468: alone -- and then lies to the public. Richard Stallman is no Spock.
1469: <br>
1470: <br>
1471: We release our software in ways that are maximally free. We
1472: remove all restrictions on use and distribution, but leave a
1473: requirement to be known as the authors. We follow a pattern of
1474: free source code distribution that started in the mid-1980's
1475: in Berkeley, from before Richard Stallman had any powerful
1476: influence which he could use so falsely.
1477: <br>
1478: <br>
1479: We have a development sub-tree called "ports". Our "ports" tree
1480: builds software that is 'found on the net' into packages that
1481: OpenBSD users can use more easily. A scaffold of Makefiles and
1482: scripts automatically fetch these pieces of software, apply
1483: patches as required by OpenBSD, and then build them into nice
1484: neat little tarballs. This is provided as a convenience for
1.97 okan 1485: users. The ports tree is maintained by OpenBSD entirely separately
1.95 deraadt 1486: from our main source tree. Some of the software which is fetched
1487: and compiled is not as free as we would like, but what can we do.
1488: All the other operating system projects make exactly the same
1489: decision, and provide these same conveniences to their users.
1490: <br>
1491: <br>
1492: Richard felt that this "ports tree" of ours made OpenBSD non-free.
1493: He came to our mailing lists and lectured to us specifically, yet
1494: he said nothing to the many other vendors who do the same; many of
1495: them donate to the FSF and perhaps that has something to do with it.
1496: Meanwhile, Richard has personally made sure that all the official
1497: GNU software -- including Emacs -- compiles and runs on Windows.
1498: <br>
1499: <br>
1500: That man is a false leader. He is a hypocrite. There may be some
1501: people who listen to him. But we don't listen to people who do not
1502: follow their own stupid rules.

1601: Those of us who work on OpenBSD are often asked why we do what we do.
1.91 merdely 1602: This song's lyrics express the core motivations and goals which have
1.90 deraadt 1603: remained unchanged over the years - secure, free, reliable software,
1604: that can be shared with anyone. Many other projects purport to share
1605: these same goals, and love to wrap themselves in a banner of "Open
1606: Source" and "Free Software". Given how many projects there are one
1607: would think it might be easy to stick to those goals, but it doesn't
1608: seem to work out that way. A variety of desires drag many projects
1609: away from the ideals very quickly.
1610: <p>
1.93 jmc 1611: Much of any operating system's usability depends on device support,
1.91 merdely 1612: and there are some very tempting alternative ways to support devices
1.90 deraadt 1613: available to those who will surrender their moral code. A project
1614: could compromise by entering into NDA agreements with vendors, or
1615: including binary objects in the operating system for which no source
1616: code exists, or tying their users down with contract terms hidden
1617: inside copyright notices. All of these choices surrender some subset
1618: of the ideals, and we simply will not do this. Sure, we care about
1619: getting devices working, but not at the expense of our original goals.
1620: <p>
1621: Of course since "free to share with anyone" is part of our goals,
1622: we've been at the forefront of many licensing and NDA issues,
1.91 merdely 1623: resulting in a good number of successes. This success had led to much
1.90 deraadt 1624: recognition for the advancement of Free Software causes, but has also
1625: led to other issues.
1626: <p>
1627: We fully admit that some BSD licensed software has been taken and used
1628: by many commercial entities, but contributions come back more often
1629: than people seem to know, and when they do, they're always still
1630: properly attributed to the original authors, and given back in the
1631: same spirit that they were given in the first place.
1632: <p>
1633: That's the best we can expect from companies. After all, we make our
1634: stuff so free so that everyone can benefit -- it remains a core goal;
1635: we really have not strayed at all in 10 years. But we can expect more
1636: from projects who talk about sharing -- such as the various Linux
1637: projects.
1638: <p>
1639: Now rather than seeing us as friends who can cooperatively improve all
1640: codebases, we are seen as foes who oppose the GPL. The participants
1641: of "the race" are being manipulated by the FSF and their legal arm, the
1642: SFLC, for the FSF's aims, rather than the goal of getting good source
1643: into Linux (and all other code bases). We don't want this to come off
1644: as some conspiracy theory, but we simply urge those developers caution
1645: -- they should ensure that the path they are being shown by those who
1646: have positioned themselves as leaders is still true. Run for yourself,
1647: not for their agenda.
1648: <p>
1649: The Race is there to be run, for ourselves, not for others. We do
1650: what we do to run our own race, and finish it the best we can. We
1651: don't rush off at every distraction, or worry how this will affect our
1652: image. We are here to have fun doing right.

1754: As developers of a free operating system, one of our prime responsibilities
1755: is device support. No matter how nice an operating system is, it remains
1756: useless and unusable without solid support for a wide percentage of the
1757: hardware that is available on the market. It is therefore rather unsurprising
1758: that more than half of our efforts focus on various aspects relating to
1759: device support.
1760: <p>
1.85 mbalmer 1761: Most parts of the operating system (from low kernel, through to libraries,
1.81 deraadt 1762: all the way up to X, and then even to applications) use fairly obvious
1763: interface layers, where the "communication protocols" or "argument passing"
1764: mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be understood by any developer who takes the
1765: time to read the free code. Device drivers pose an additional and significant
1766: challenge though: because many vendors refuse to document the exact behavior
1767: of their devices. The devices are black boxes. And often they are surprisingly
1768: weird, or even buggy.
1769: <p>
1770: When vendor documentation does not exist, the development process can
1771: become extremely hairy. Groups of developers have found themselves focused
1772: for months at a time, figuring out the most simple steps, simply because
1773: the hardware is a complete mystery. Access to documentation can ease
1774: these difficulties rapidly. However, getting access to the chip documentation
1775: from vendors is ... almost always a negotiation. If we had open access to
1.84 matthieu 1776: documentation, anyone would be able to see how simple all these devices
1.81 deraadt 1777: actually are, and device driver development would flourish (and not just in
1778: OpenBSD, either).
1779: <p>
1780: When we proceed into negotiations with vendors, asking for documentation,
1781: our position is often weak. One would assume that the modern market is fair,
1782: and that selling chips would be the primary focus of these vendors. But
1783: unfortunately a number of behemoth software vendors have spent the last 10 or
1784: 20 years building

1787: <p>
1.82 jsg 1788: A particularly nasty player in this regard has been the Linux vendors and
1.87 tom 1789: some Linux developers, who have played along with an American corporate model

1806: <br>
1807: <br>
1808: Puffy Baba and the 40 Vendors<br>
1809: We all know the details<br>
1810: Magic cave, magic words, some thieves,<br>
1811: some serious loot,<br>
1812: and lucky - Mister - Baba<br>
1813: Who got a bad rap if you ask me<br>
1814: The little guy who<br>
1815: did the best with what he had<br>
1816: <br>
1817: <br>
1818: Here are Mr. Baba's lessons<br>
1819: Load one ass, take a few trips and spend<br>
1820: in moderation<br>
1821: Three things the average man can't - get - right<br>
1822: <br>
1823: <br>
1824: If you know your brother is a greedy bastard<br>
1825: never give him the password<br>
1826: If he goes penguin on you,<br>
1827: stop - being - his brother.<br>
1828: When a cave is guarded by magic lawyers<br>

1.81 deraadt 1830: So do the best with what you have<br>

1832: <br>
1833: Beyond the lessons - you must know this<br>
1834: that the Devil is as real as your address<br>
1835: But unlike Vendors,<br>
1836: he at least keeps the door open<br>
1837: <br>
1838: <br>
1839: Vendors of water that should be free<br>

1844: <br>
1845: <br>
1846: Gratis. Free. Libre. Cuffo.<br>
1847: The companies of thieves stole every good adjective<br>
1848: and left us with open source (sores)<br>
1849: sharing smaller and smaller bandages<br>
1850: for each consecutive cut<br>
1851: But with the salty water of labour<br>
1852: parched desert becomes pregnant black soil<br>

2146: OpenBSD emphasizes security. It also emphasizes openness. All the code

2148: without any source code. Hardware makers like them because they
2149: obscure the details of how to make their hardware work. They hide bugs

2158: But when you need to trust the system, how do you check the blob for
2159: quality? For adherence to standards? How do you know the blob contains
2160: no malicious code? No incompetent code? Inspection is impossible; you
2161: can only test the black box. And when it breaks, you have no idea why.<br>
2162: <br>
2163: <br>
2164: <ul>

2187: vendors to release documentation, and often reverse-engineers around
2188: the need for blobs. OpenBSD remains blob-free. Anyone can look at it,
2189: assess it, improve it. If it breaks, it can be fixed.

2329: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
2330: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
2331: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
2332: their devices.
2333: <p>
2334: Take Adaptec for instance. Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
2335: for the
1.70 steven 2336: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=aac&sektion=4">aac(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 2337: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
2338: They refused to give us documentation. Without documentation, support
2339: for their controller had always been poor. The driver had bugs (which
2340: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
2341: course there was no RAID management support. Apparently most of these
1.59 jolan 2342: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
2343: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
2344: cannot solve these issues.
1.58 deraadt 2345: <p>
2346: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
2347: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee. But no
2348: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
2349: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
2350: development model -- it becomes very hard for the principle of
2351: "quality" to show its head.
2352: <p>
2353: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
2354: <br>
2355: <ul>
1.60 pvalchev 2356: <li>Redundancy
1.58 deraadt 2357: <li>Repair
2358: </ul>
2359: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60 pvalchev 2360: fail, your data is not lost. But once a drive has failed, you require your
2361: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58 deraadt 2362: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
2363: <p>
2364: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
2365: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
2366: so that their devices could support Redundancy. But these vendors have
2367: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
2368: <p>
2369: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
2370: tools. These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67 jolan 2371: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58 deraadt 2372: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
2373: <p>
2374: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
2375: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
2376: the AMI controllers.
2377: <p>
2378: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
2379: rather simple primitives. This is all that we need to implement
2380: basic RAID management:
2381: <ul>
2382: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
2383: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
2384: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
2385: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
2386: </ul>
2387: <p>
2388: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
2389: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
2390: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
2391: <p>
2392: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
2393: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
2394: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
2395: <p>
1.60 pvalchev 2396: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
2397: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58 deraadt 2398: controllers now. And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
2399: may mean we can never get documentation for the
1.70 steven 2400: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=gdt&sektion=4">gdt(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 2401: controllers.
2402: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
2403: would not get documentation, either.
2404: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
2405: look saintly.
2406: <p>
2407: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
2408: in OpenBSD, please buy
2409: <a href="http://www.lsilogic.com/products/megaraid/index.html">LSI/AMI</a>

2506: For an operating system to get anywhere in "the market" it must have
2507: good device support.<br>
2508: <br>
2509: Ethernet was our first concern. Many vendors refused to supply
2510: programmers with programming documentation for these chipsets. Donald
2511: Becker (Linux) and Bill Paul (FreeBSD) changed the rules of the game
2512: here: They wrote drivers for the chipsets that they could get
2513: documentation for, and as they succeeded in writing more and more
2514: drivers, eventually closed vendors slowly opened up until most
2515: ethernet chipset documentation was available. Today, some vendors
2516: still resist releasing ethernet chipset documentation (ie. Broadcom,
1.62 brad 2517: Intel, Marvell/SysKonnect, NVIDIA) but the driver problem is mostly
1.46 henning 2518: solved in the ethernet market.<br>
1.44 deraadt 2519: <br>
2520: Similar problems have happened in the SCSI, IDE, and RAID markets.
2521: Again, the problem was solved by writing drivers for documented
2522: devices first. If the free software user communities use those drivers
2523: preferentially, it is a market loss for the secretive vendors.
2524: Another approach that has worked is to publish email addresses and
2525: phone numbers for the marketing department managers in these
2526: companies. These email campaigns have worked almost every time.<br>
2527: <br>
2528: The new frontier: 802.11 wireless chipsets.<br>
2529: <br>
2530: Over the last six months, this came to a head in the OpenBSD project.
2531: We asked our users to help us petition numerous vendors so that we
2532: could get chipset documentation or redistributable firmware. Certainly, we did
1.52 deraadt 2533: not succeed for some vendors. But we did influence some vendors, in
1.44 deraadt 2534: particular the Taiwanese (Ralink and Realtek), who have given us
2535: everything we need. We also reverse engineered the Atheros chipsets.<br>
2536: <br>
2537:
2538: Want to help us? Avoid
2539: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ipw">Intel Centrino</a>,
2540: Broadcom, TI, or Connexant PrismGT chipsets.
2541: Heck, avoid buying even regular
1.48 deraadt 2542: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=wi">old pre-G Prism products</a>,
1.44 deraadt 2543: to send a message.
1.48 deraadt 2544: If you can, buy 802.11 products using chips by
1.44 deraadt 2545: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=rtw">Realtek</a>,

2549: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ath">Atheros</a>.
2550: Our manual pages attempt to explain which vendors (ie. D-Link) box
1.52 deraadt 2551: which chipsets into which product.
1.44 deraadt 2552: <br>
2553: <br>
2554: Send a message that open support for hardware matters. A vendor in
1.56 cloder 2555: Redmond largely continues their practices because they get
1.44 deraadt 2556: the chipset documentation years before everyone else does.
2557: What really upsets us the most is that some Linux vendors are signing
2558: Non-Disclosure Agreements with vendors, or contracts that let them
2559: distribute firmwares. Meanwhile both Linux and FSF head developers
1.49 nick 2560: are not asking their communities to help us in our efforts to free

2666: What is up with some free software providers?!
2667: They say "Here's something free! Oh wait, I changed my mind."
2668: <p>
2669: While not exactly bait-and-switch, this is something which
2670: has been causing the community continual grief, and therefore
2671: we decided to honour a few of the projects that have decided
1.41 deraadt 2672: to go non-free. After all.. having gone non-free, no one is
1.37 deraadt 2673: going to remember them in the end.
2674: <p>
2675: This song is dedicated to a few worthy groups who
2676: have made this Free-to-Non-Free transition with their
2677: offerings in the last few years:
2678: <ul>
2679: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
2680: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
2681: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
2682: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that
2683: we must give him more credit (ie. advertise his name) or
2684: stop using it. Within about 4 months every project had
2685: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a
2686: replacement effort.
1.41 deraadt 2687: Now his team cannot even keep their web pages up to date...
1.37 deraadt 2688: <p>
2689: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
2690: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
2691: that we chose. But a few years later he told us that we
2692: were not free to make changes to the code. So we deleted ipf,
2693: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
2694: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
2695: <p>
2696: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
2697: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
2698: web server of dubious quality. But the years have changed them,
2699: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40 jolan 2700: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51 jcs 2701: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within. Legal terms
1.37 deraadt 2702: protect. Who are they protecting? Not your freedom.
2703: </ul>
2704: So here's a goodbye to those three groups, and a warning to any
2705: others who will follow them:
2706: Make your stuff non-free, and something else will
2707: replace it.

2830: A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
2831: and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
2832: themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
2833: redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
2834: Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
2835: <p>
2836: We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
2837: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
2838: and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
2839: firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
2840: them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
2841: sessions. Our
2842: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
2843: protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
2844: it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
2845: network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
2846: firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
2847: the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
2848: <p>
2849: The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
2850: 90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
2851: Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
2852: Redundancy Protocol); on
2853: <a href="http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
2854: March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
2855: "Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
2856: that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
2857: standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
2858: IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
2859: though there was a patent in the space. Why?
1.144 deraadt 2860: <a href="http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/doc/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
1.30 deraadt 2861: There was much deliberation</a>
2862: at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
2863: politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
2864: standards -- as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
2865: (Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
2866: programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
2867: RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
2868: the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
2869: and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
2870: eh?
2871: <p>
2872: Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
2873: (HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
2874: recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
2875: -- a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
2876: claim patent rights.
2877: <p>
2878: On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
2879: lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
2880: its patents for VRRP implementations -- meaning basically that it was
2881: impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
2882: implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
2883: Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
2884: small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
2885: against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
2886: members took note of our complaints,
1.122 deraadt 2887: <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20061109082106/http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
1.30 deraadt 2888: however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
2889: patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
2890: <p>
2891: A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
2892: to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
2893: and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
2894: backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
2895: avoid it -- the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
1.55 tom 2896: participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
1.30 deraadt 2897: Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
2898: is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
2899: like all others, except against the community.
2900: <p>
2901: Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
2902: benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
2903: <p>
2904: Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
2905: correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
2906: designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
2907: problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
2908: same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
2909: document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
2910: We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
2911: lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
2912: it to use cryptography.
2913: <p>
2914: The combination of
2915: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
2916: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
2917: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
2918: has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
2919: have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
2920: running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
2921: group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
2922: our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
2923: to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
2924: this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
2925: <p>
2926: As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
2927: regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
2928: for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
2929: to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
2930: were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
2931: anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
2932: We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
2933: these decisions, but they declined to reply.
2934: <p>
2935: This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
2936: this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

3225: Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
1.26 deraadt 3226: the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
1.20 deraadt 3227: forces of the draconian government!
3228: <p>
3229: <br>
3230: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
3231: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
3232: of recent happenings.
3233: <p>
3234: Two years ago we became involved with the University
3235: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
3236: security research and development .. on things that
3237: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
3238: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
3239: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
3240: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
3241: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
3242: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
3243: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21 deraadt 3244: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 3245: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
3246: <p>
3247: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
3248: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
3249: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
3250: obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
1.67 jolan 3251: this sudden maneuver. Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20 deraadt 3252: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55 tom 3253: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20 deraadt 3254: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
3255: theft of oil.
3256: <p>
3257: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
3258: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
3259: <p>
3260: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
3261: project, and due to world events and the evolving
3262: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
3263: the Government on April 21 advised the University
3264: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
3265: the project."
3266: <p>
3267: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
3268: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
3269: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
3270: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
3271: <p>
3272: Since the termination came near natural contract
3273: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
3274: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
3275: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
3276: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61 grunk 3277: proceeded as planned. We even had T-shirts made with
1.20 deraadt 3278: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
3279: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
3280: <p>
3281: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
3282: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
3283: of Robin Hood.
