1.146     guenther  508: In August of 2012, Philip Guenther started the OpenBSD work to
1.157     deraadt   509: solve this.
1.146     guenther  510: After a year of work it was ready enough for merging, and in August 2013
                    511: the <b>time_t</b> type was changed to int64_t on all
                    512: platforms and the kernel and userland were adapted to the new
                    513: situation. The initial work was committed right after OpenBSD 5.4,

                    516: The next part of the process was to drag the "ports" software

1.144     deraadt   518: machines to run with 64-bit <b>time_t</b>.  This required a fair
                    519: bit of upstream involvement. Thousands of fixes were required to
                    520: make both 32-bit and 64-bit time work transparently.  There will
                    521: be more fixing in the future, but the concept is proven.
                    522: <p>
                    523: In the past OpenBSD pushed risky theoretical ideas into mainstream

                    525: No OS wants to make a ABI jump until the case for change is proven.

                    527: by mainline operating systems... because things like Firefox
                    528: and Postgresql don't break anymore.  OpenBSD built that route.

                   1530: of corporate pollution -- and release it freely -- is more interesting
                   1531: than the lawsuit which followed.  Sure, a stupid lawsuit happened which
                   1532: hindered the acceptance of the BSD code during a critical period.
                   1533: But how did a bunch of guys go through the effort of replacing so
                   1534: much AT&T code in the first place? After all, companies had
                   1535: lots of really evil lawyers back then too -- were they not afraid?

                   1540: So Keith Bostic, Mike Karels and Kirk McKusick (the main UCB CSRG group)
                   1541: started going through the 4.3BSD codebase to cleanse the rest.
                   1542: Keith, in particular, built a ragtag team (in those days, USENIX
                   1543: conferences were a gold mine for such team building) and led these
                   1544: rebels to rewrite and replace all the Imperial AT&T code, piece by
                   1545: piece, starting with the libraries and userland programs.

1.104     deraadt  1551: checking, this led to the release of a clean tree called Net/2 which
                   1552: was given to the world in June 1991 -- the largest dump of free source
                   1553: code the world had ever received (for those days -- not modern monsters like OpenOffice).

                   1556: Some of these ragtags formed a company (BSDi) to sell a production system
                   1557: based on this free code base, and a year later Unix System Laboratories
                   1558: (basically AT&T) sued BSDi and UCB.
                   1559: Eventually AT&T lost and after a few trifling fixes (described in the
                   1560: lawsuit documents) the codebase was free.  A few newer developments
                   1561: (and more free code) were added, and released in June 1994 as 4.4BSD-Lite.
                   1562: Just over 14 years later OpenBSD is releasing its own 4.4 release (and for

1.91      merdely  1862: resulting in a good number of successes.  This success had led to much

                   1868: than people seem to know, and when they do, they're always still

                   1874: we really have not strayed at all in 10 years.  But we can expect more
                   1875: from projects who talk about sharing -- such as the various Linux
                   1876: projects.
                   1877: <p>
                   1878: Now rather than seeing us as friends who can cooperatively improve all
                   1879: codebases, we are seen as foes who oppose the GPL.  The participants
                   1880: of "the race" are being manipulated by the FSF and their legal arm, the
                   1881: SFLC, for the FSF's aims, rather than the goal of getting good source
                   1882: into Linux (and all other code bases).  We don't want this to come off
                   1883: as some conspiracy theory, but we simply urge those developers caution
                   1884: -- they should ensure that the path they are being shown by those who
                   1885: have positioned themselves as leaders is still true.  Run for yourself,
                   1886: not for their agenda.
                   1887: <p>
                   1888: The Race is there to be run, for ourselves, not for others.  We do
                   1889: what we do to run our own race, and finish it the best we can.  We
                   1890: don't rush off at every distraction, or worry how this will affect our
                   1891: image.  We are here to have fun doing right.

                   1994: is device support.  No matter how nice an operating system is, it remains
                   1995: useless and unusable without solid support for a wide percentage of the
                   1996: hardware that is available on the market.  It is therefore rather unsurprising
                   1997: that more than half of our efforts focus on various aspects relating to
                   1998: device support.

                   2002: interface layers, where the "communication protocols" or "argument passing"
                   2003: mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be understood by any developer who takes the
                   2004: time to read the free code.  Device drivers pose an additional and significant
                   2005: challenge though: because many vendors refuse to document the exact behavior
                   2006: of their devices.  The devices are black boxes.  And often they are surprisingly

                   2012: the hardware is a complete mystery.  Access to documentation can ease
                   2013: these difficulties rapidly.  However, getting access to the chip documentation
                   2014: from vendors is ... almost always a negotiation.  If we had open access to
1.84      matthieu 2015: documentation, anyone would be able to see how simple all these devices
1.81      deraadt  2016: actually are, and device driver development would flourish (and not just in

                   2568: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
                   2569: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
                   2570: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
                   2571: their devices.
                   2572: <p>
                   2573: Take Adaptec for instance.  Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
                   2574: for the

1.58      deraadt  2576: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
                   2577: They refused to give us documentation.  Without documentation, support
                   2578: for their controller had always been poor.  The driver had bugs (which
                   2579: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
                   2580: course there was no RAID management support.  Apparently most of these
1.59      jolan    2581: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
                   2582: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
                   2583: cannot solve these issues.
1.58      deraadt  2584: <p>
                   2585: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
                   2586: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee.  But no
                   2587: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
                   2588: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
                   2589: development model -- it becomes very hard for the principle of
                   2590: "quality" to show its head.
                   2591: <p>
                   2592: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
                   2593: <br>
                   2594: <ul>
1.60      pvalchev 2595: <li>Redundancy
1.58      deraadt  2596: <li>Repair
                   2597: </ul>
                   2598: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60      pvalchev 2599: fail, your data is not lost.  But once a drive has failed, you require your
                   2600: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58      deraadt  2601: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
                   2602: <p>
                   2603: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
                   2604: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
                   2605: so that their devices could support Redundancy.  But these vendors have
                   2606: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
                   2607: <p>
                   2608: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
                   2609: tools.  These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67      jolan    2610: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58      deraadt  2611: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
                   2612: <p>
                   2613: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
                   2614: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
                   2615: the AMI controllers.
                   2616: <p>
                   2617: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
                   2618: rather simple primitives.  This is all that we need to implement
                   2619: basic RAID management:
                   2620: <ul>
                   2621: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
                   2622: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
                   2623: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
                   2624: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
                   2625: </ul>
                   2626: <p>
                   2627: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
                   2628: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
                   2629: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
                   2630: <p>
                   2631: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
                   2632: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
                   2633: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
                   2634: <p>
1.60      pvalchev 2635: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
                   2636: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58      deraadt  2637: controllers now.  And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
                   2638: may mean we can never get documentation for the

                   2641: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
                   2642: would not get documentation, either.
                   2643: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
                   2644: look saintly.
                   2645: <p>
                   2646: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
                   2647: in OpenBSD, please buy

                   2917: <ul>
                   2918: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
                   2919: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
                   2920: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
                   2921: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that

                   2923: stop using it.  Within about 4 months every project had
                   2924: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a

1.37      deraadt  2927: <p>
                   2928: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
                   2929: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
                   2930: that we chose.  But a few years later he told us that we
                   2931: were not free to make changes to the code.  So we deleted ipf,
                   2932: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
                   2933: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
                   2934: <p>
                   2935: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
                   2936: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
                   2937: web server of dubious quality.  But the years have changed them,
                   2938: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40      jolan    2939: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51      jcs      2940: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within.  Legal terms

                   3472: <p>
                   3473: Two years ago we became involved with the University
                   3474: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
                   3475: security research and development .. on things that
                   3476: we were already intending to do.  We provided ideas,
                   3477: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
                   3478: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
                   3479: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
                   3480: a middle-man.  We accepted funding based on the
                   3481: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
                   3482: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21      deraadt  3483: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20      deraadt  3484: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
                   3485: <p>
                   3486: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
                   3487: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
                   3488: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
                   3489: obligations.  Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
1.67      jolan    3490: this sudden maneuver.  Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20      deraadt  3491: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55      tom      3492: newspaper The Globe &amp; Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20      deraadt  3493: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
                   3494: theft of oil.
                   3495: <p>
                   3496: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
                   3497: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
                   3498: <p>
                   3499: &quot;As a result of the DARPA review of the
                   3500: project, and due to world events and the evolving
                   3501: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
                   3502: the Government on April 21 advised the University
                   3503: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
                   3504: the project.&quot;
                   3505: <p>
                   3506: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
                   3507: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
                   3508: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
                   3509: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
                   3510: <p>
                   3511: Since the termination came near natural contract
                   3512: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
                   3513: than expected was sustained by the project.  Sponsors
                   3514: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
                   3515: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61      grunk    3516: proceeded as planned.  We even had T-shirts made with
1.20      deraadt  3517: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
                   3518: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
                   3519: <p>
                   3520: We could not make stories like this up.  So instead,
                   3521: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
                   3522: of Robin Hood.
