25: Every 6 months the OpenBSD project has the pleasure to release
26: software on an official CDROM set, with artwork and a matching song.
1.139 deraadt 27: Theo and some other developers mutate a theme (from a classical
28: setting, a movie, or some genre) into the fishy world of Puffy, to
29: describe some advance, event or controversy the project went through
1.108 deraadt 30: over the previous six months. To match the art released with the CD,
1.175 deraadt 31: we join up with some musicians we know to make at least one song.

454: We've done stuff about LibreSSL before, but this particular song just
455: fit with the release theme. While the lyrics can speak for themselves,
456: "A Year In The Life" is representative of more than just LibreSSL. The
457: pattern of LibreSSL development is a pattern that has repeated itself
458: many times in OpenBSD -- a decision is made by a few people to do
459: something, followed by action, and letting the world share it if they
460: like it (such as with OpenSSH). To the developers actually doing the
461: work, reactions to such efforts can often seem surreal, or
462: irrelevant. The juxtaposition of working on the very real with the
463: surreal going on around you can often make working on such projects
464: feel like you're in a bit of an altered reality.. Sort of like the
465: song. A number of us have had many years like this in the last 20.

636: In January of 2038, 32-bit Unix time will overflow and wrap

639: POSIX operating systems have made strong inroads into embedded
640: roles, so this is anticipated to be substantially worse than the Y2K transition.
641: <p>
1.146 guenther 642: In August of 2012, Philip Guenther started the OpenBSD work to
1.157 deraadt 643: solve this.
1.146 guenther 644: After a year of work it was ready enough for merging, and in August 2013
645: the <b>time_t</b> type was changed to int64_t on all
646: platforms and the kernel and userland were adapted to the new
647: situation. The initial work was committed right after OpenBSD 5.4,
648: then polished in tree over the next 6 months.
1.144 deraadt 649: <p>
650: The next part of the process was to drag the "ports" software
1.146 guenther 651: ecosystem along because no one else had paved the way for 32-bit
1.144 deraadt 652: machines to run with 64-bit <b>time_t</b>. This required a fair
653: bit of upstream involvement. Thousands of fixes were required to
654: make both 32-bit and 64-bit time work transparently. There will
655: be more fixing in the future, but the concept is proven.
656: <p>
657: In the past OpenBSD pushed risky theoretical ideas into mainstream
658: software practice by proving the ecosystem was ready to change.
659: No OS wants to make a ABI jump until the case for change is proven.
660: Stack protection, ASLR, and W^X principles are now in common use
661: by mainline operating systems... because things like Firefox
662: and Postgresql don't break anymore. OpenBSD built that route.
663: <p>
664: In the same way, the road is paved for the 64-bit <b>time_t</b>
665: transition. Other operating systems can now make this jump.

1.132 beck 835: Just as the original song professed its love for Brazil, "World,
836: you'll love my Linux" is the passionate call of an idealistic dreamer
837: who can't bear the thought of software that will only run under
838: Windows, and yet loves the situation with software that will only run
839: under particular Linux distributions.
840: <p>
841: This problem has proliferated itself into the standards bodies, with
842: Posix adopting Linuxisms ahead of any other variant of Unix.
843: <p>
844: Posix and Unix have made it where you can write reasonably portable
845: software and have it compile and run across a multitude of platforms.
1.157 deraadt 846: Now this seems to be changing as the love for Linux drives the
847: standards bodies into accepting everything Linux, good and bad.
1.132 beck 848: <p>
849: We also are faced with groups writing software that only works
850: with particular distributions of Linux. From this we get software that
851: not only isn't very portable, but often not particularly stable. Our
852: idealistic dreamer in the song loves running one, or more than one distribution
853: of Linux for a particular purpose. Unfortunately, the rest of us are left
854: with the unattractive choice of doing the same, or relying on
855: herculean efforts to port software that is being actively developed in a
1.157 deraadt 856: way to discourage porting it to other platforms.

1635: Nearly 10 years ago Kirk McKusick wrote a history of
1636: the Berkeley Unix distributions for the
1.121 deraadt 1637: O'Reilly book "Open Sources: Voices from the Open Source Revolution".
1.104 deraadt 1638: We recommend you read his story, entitled
1639: <a href="http://oreilly.com/catalog/opensources/book/kirkmck.html">
1640: "Twenty Years of Berkeley Unix
1641: From AT&T-Owned to Freely Redistributable"</a>
1642: first, to see how Kirk remembers how we got here.
1643: Sadly, since it showed up in book form originally, this text has
1644: probably not been read by enough people.
1645: <br>
1646: <br>
1647: The USL(AT&T) vs BSDI/UCB court case settlement documents were
1648: not public until recently; their disclosure has made the facts more clear.
1649: But the story of how three people decided to free the BSD codebase
1650: of corporate pollution -- and release it freely -- is more interesting
1651: than the lawsuit which followed. Sure, a stupid lawsuit happened which
1652: hindered the acceptance of the BSD code during a critical period.
1653: But how did a bunch of guys go through the effort of replacing so
1654: much AT&T code in the first place? After all, companies had
1655: lots of really evil lawyers back then too -- were they not afraid?
1656: <br>
1657: <br>
1658: After a decade of development, most of the AT&T code had
1659: already been replaced by university researchers and their associates.
1660: So Keith Bostic, Mike Karels and Kirk McKusick (the main UCB CSRG group)
1661: started going through the 4.3BSD codebase to cleanse the rest.
1662: Keith, in particular, built a ragtag team (in those days, USENIX
1663: conferences were a gold mine for such team building) and led these
1664: rebels to rewrite and replace all the Imperial AT&T code, piece by
1665: piece, starting with the libraries and userland programs.
1666: Anyone who helped only got credit as a Contributor -- people like
1667: Chris Torek and a cast of .. hundreds more.
1668: <br>
1669: <br>
1.105 deraadt 1670: Then Mike and Kirk purified the kernel. After a bit more careful
1.104 deraadt 1671: checking, this led to the release of a clean tree called Net/2 which
1672: was given to the world in June 1991 -- the largest dump of free source
1673: code the world had ever received (for those days -- not modern monsters like OpenOffice).
1674: <br>
1675: <br>
1676: Some of these ragtags formed a company (BSDi) to sell a production system
1677: based on this free code base, and a year later Unix System Laboratories
1678: (basically AT&T) sued BSDi and UCB.
1679: Eventually AT&T lost and after a few trifling fixes (described in the
1680: lawsuit documents) the codebase was free. A few newer developments
1681: (and more free code) were added, and released in June 1994 as 4.4BSD-Lite.
1682: Just over 14 years later OpenBSD is releasing its own 4.4 release (and for
1683: a lot less than <a href=orders.html>$1000 per copy</a>).
1684: <br>
1685: <br>
1686: The OpenBSD 4.4 release is dedicated to Keith Bostic, Mike Karels, Kirk McKusick,
1687: and all of those who contributed to making Net/2 and 4.4BSD-Lite free.

1807: In 1998 when a United Airlines plane was waiting in the queue at
1.102 deraadt 1808: Washington Dulles International Airport for take-off to New Orleans
1809: (where a Usenix conference was taking place), one man stood up from
1810: his seat, demanded that they stop waiting in the queue and be permitted
1.95 deraadt 1811: to deplane. Even after orders from the crew and a pilot from
1812: the cockpit he refused to sit down. The plane exited the queue
1.96 deraadt 1813: and returned to the airport gangway. Security personnel ran onto
1.95 deraadt 1814: the plane and removed this man, Richard Stallman, from the plane.
1815: After Richard was removed from the plane, everyone else stayed
1816: onboard and continued their journey to New Orleans. A few
1817: OpenBSD developers were on that same plane, seated very closeby,
1818: so we have an accurate story of the events.
1819: <br>
1820: <br>
1821: This is the man who presumes that he should preach to us
1822: about morality, freedom, and what is best for us. He believes
1823: it is his God-given role to tell us what is best for us, when he
1824: has shown that he takes actions which are not best for everyone.
1825: He prefers actions which he thinks are best for him -- and him
1826: alone -- and then lies to the public. Richard Stallman is no Spock.
1827: <br>
1828: <br>
1829: We release our software in ways that are maximally free. We
1830: remove all restrictions on use and distribution, but leave a
1831: requirement to be known as the authors. We follow a pattern of
1832: free source code distribution that started in the mid-1980's
1833: in Berkeley, from before Richard Stallman had any powerful
1834: influence which he could use so falsely.
1835: <br>
1836: <br>
1837: We have a development sub-tree called "ports". Our "ports" tree
1838: builds software that is 'found on the net' into packages that
1839: OpenBSD users can use more easily. A scaffold of Makefiles and
1840: scripts automatically fetch these pieces of software, apply
1841: patches as required by OpenBSD, and then build them into nice
1842: neat little tarballs. This is provided as a convenience for
1.97 okan 1843: users. The ports tree is maintained by OpenBSD entirely separately
1.95 deraadt 1844: from our main source tree. Some of the software which is fetched
1845: and compiled is not as free as we would like, but what can we do.
1846: All the other operating system projects make exactly the same
1847: decision, and provide these same conveniences to their users.
1848: <br>
1849: <br>
1850: Richard felt that this "ports tree" of ours made OpenBSD non-free.
1851: He came to our mailing lists and lectured to us specifically, yet
1852: he said nothing to the many other vendors who do the same; many of
1853: them donate to the FSF and perhaps that has something to do with it.
1854: Meanwhile, Richard has personally made sure that all the official
1855: GNU software -- including Emacs -- compiles and runs on Windows.
1856: <br>
1857: <br>
1858: That man is a false leader. He is a hypocrite. There may be some
1859: people who listen to him. But we don't listen to people who do not
1860: follow their own stupid rules.

1958: Those of us who work on OpenBSD are often asked why we do what we do.
1.91 merdely 1959: This song's lyrics express the core motivations and goals which have
1.90 deraadt 1960: remained unchanged over the years - secure, free, reliable software,
1961: that can be shared with anyone. Many other projects purport to share
1962: these same goals, and love to wrap themselves in a banner of "Open
1963: Source" and "Free Software". Given how many projects there are one
1964: would think it might be easy to stick to those goals, but it doesn't
1965: seem to work out that way. A variety of desires drag many projects
1966: away from the ideals very quickly.
1967: <p>
1.93 jmc 1968: Much of any operating system's usability depends on device support,
1.91 merdely 1969: and there are some very tempting alternative ways to support devices
1.90 deraadt 1970: available to those who will surrender their moral code. A project
1971: could compromise by entering into NDA agreements with vendors, or
1972: including binary objects in the operating system for which no source
1973: code exists, or tying their users down with contract terms hidden
1974: inside copyright notices. All of these choices surrender some subset
1975: of the ideals, and we simply will not do this. Sure, we care about
1976: getting devices working, but not at the expense of our original goals.
1977: <p>
1978: Of course since "free to share with anyone" is part of our goals,
1979: we've been at the forefront of many licensing and NDA issues,
1.91 merdely 1980: resulting in a good number of successes. This success had led to much
1.90 deraadt 1981: recognition for the advancement of Free Software causes, but has also
1982: led to other issues.
1983: <p>
1984: We fully admit that some BSD licensed software has been taken and used
1985: by many commercial entities, but contributions come back more often
1986: than people seem to know, and when they do, they're always still
1987: properly attributed to the original authors, and given back in the
1988: same spirit that they were given in the first place.
1989: <p>
1990: That's the best we can expect from companies. After all, we make our
1991: stuff so free so that everyone can benefit -- it remains a core goal;
1992: we really have not strayed at all in 10 years. But we can expect more
1993: from projects who talk about sharing -- such as the various Linux
1994: projects.
1995: <p>
1996: Now rather than seeing us as friends who can cooperatively improve all
1997: codebases, we are seen as foes who oppose the GPL. The participants
1998: of "the race" are being manipulated by the FSF and their legal arm, the
1999: SFLC, for the FSF's aims, rather than the goal of getting good source
2000: into Linux (and all other code bases). We don't want this to come off
2001: as some conspiracy theory, but we simply urge those developers caution
2002: -- they should ensure that the path they are being shown by those who
2003: have positioned themselves as leaders is still true. Run for yourself,
2004: not for their agenda.
2005: <p>
2006: The Race is there to be run, for ourselves, not for others. We do
2007: what we do to run our own race, and finish it the best we can. We
2008: don't rush off at every distraction, or worry how this will affect our
2009: image. We are here to have fun doing right.

2110: As developers of a free operating system, one of our prime responsibilities
2111: is device support. No matter how nice an operating system is, it remains
2112: useless and unusable without solid support for a wide percentage of the
2113: hardware that is available on the market. It is therefore rather unsurprising
2114: that more than half of our efforts focus on various aspects relating to
2115: device support.
2116: <p>
1.85 mbalmer 2117: Most parts of the operating system (from low kernel, through to libraries,
1.81 deraadt 2118: all the way up to X, and then even to applications) use fairly obvious
2119: interface layers, where the "communication protocols" or "argument passing"
2120: mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be understood by any developer who takes the
2121: time to read the free code. Device drivers pose an additional and significant
2122: challenge though: because many vendors refuse to document the exact behavior
2123: of their devices. The devices are black boxes. And often they are surprisingly
2124: weird, or even buggy.
2125: <p>
2126: When vendor documentation does not exist, the development process can
2127: become extremely hairy. Groups of developers have found themselves focused
2128: for months at a time, figuring out the most simple steps, simply because
2129: the hardware is a complete mystery. Access to documentation can ease
2130: these difficulties rapidly. However, getting access to the chip documentation
2131: from vendors is ... almost always a negotiation. If we had open access to
1.84 matthieu 2132: documentation, anyone would be able to see how simple all these devices
1.81 deraadt 2133: actually are, and device driver development would flourish (and not just in
2134: OpenBSD, either).
2135: <p>
2136: When we proceed into negotiations with vendors, asking for documentation,
2137: our position is often weak. One would assume that the modern market is fair,
2138: and that selling chips would be the primary focus of these vendors. But
2139: unfortunately a number of behemoth software vendors have spent the last 10 or
2140: 20 years building

2143: <p>
1.82 jsg 2144: A particularly nasty player in this regard has been the Linux vendors and
1.87 tom 2145: some Linux developers, who have played along with an American corporate model
1.81 deraadt 2146: of requiring NDAs for chip documentation. This has effectively put Linux
2147: into the club with Microsoft, but has left all the other operating system
2148: communities -- and their developers -- with much less available clout for
2149: requesting documentation. In a more fair world, the Linux vendors would

2161: Here's an old story ...<br>
2162: <br>
2163: <br>
2164: Puffy Baba and the 40 Vendors<br>
2165: We all know the details<br>
2166: Magic cave, magic words, some thieves,<br>
2167: some serious loot,<br>
2168: and lucky - Mister - Baba<br>
2169: Who got a bad rap if you ask me<br>
2170: The little guy who<br>
2171: did the best with what he had<br>
2172: <br>
2173: <br>
2174: Here are Mr. Baba's lessons<br>
2175: Load one ass, take a few trips and spend<br>
2176: in moderation<br>
2177: Three things the average man can't - get - right<br>
2178: <br>
2179: <br>
2180: If you know your brother is a greedy bastard<br>
2181: never give him the password<br>
2182: If he goes penguin on you,<br>
2183: stop - being - his brother.<br>
2184: When a cave is guarded by magic lawyers<br>
1.86 tom 2185: A sea of blood will be its doormat<br>
1.81 deraadt 2186: So do the best with what you have<br>
2187: <br>
2188: <br>
2189: Beyond the lessons - you must know this<br>
2190: that the Devil is as real as your address<br>
2191: But unlike Vendors,<br>
2192: he at least keeps the door open<br>
2193: <br>
2194: <br>
2195: Vendors of water that should be free<br>
2196: Look upon their words and despair<br>
2197: Their badvertising made a thief of my brother<br>
2198: then made him better off dead<br>
2199: Now he hasn't got shit to do his best with<br>
2200: <br>
2201: <br>
2202: Gratis. Free. Libre. Cuffo.<br>
2203: The companies of thieves stole every good adjective<br>
2204: and left us with open source (sores)<br>
2205: sharing smaller and smaller bandages<br>
2206: for each consecutive cut<br>
2207: But with the salty water of labour<br>
2208: parched desert becomes pregnant black soil<br>
2209: <br>
2210: <br>
2211: It's not whether you're well off<br>
2212: it's where you dig the well<br>
2213: The best the little guy can do is what<br>
2214: the little guy does right<br>

2499: OpenBSD emphasizes security. It also emphasizes openness. All the code
2500: is there for all to see. Blobs are vendor-compiled binary drivers
2501: without any source code. Hardware makers like them because they
2502: obscure the details of how to make their hardware work. They hide bugs

2504: for older hardware and motivate people to buy new hardware.<br>

2508: cheerfully incorporate them; in fact their users demand them.<br>
2509: <br>
2510: <br>
2511: But when you need to trust the system, how do you check the blob for
2512: quality? For adherence to standards? How do you know the blob contains
2513: no malicious code? No incompetent code? Inspection is impossible; you
2514: can only test the black box. And when it breaks, you have no idea why.<br>
2515: <br>
2516: <br>
2517: <ul>
2518: <li>Blobs can be 'de-supported' by vendors<br>

2680: <em>
2681: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
2682: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
2683: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
2684: their devices.
2685: <p>
2686: Take Adaptec for instance. Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
2687: for the
1.168 sthen 2688: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=aac&sektion=4">aac(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 2689: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
2690: They refused to give us documentation. Without documentation, support
2691: for their controller had always been poor. The driver had bugs (which
2692: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
2693: course there was no RAID management support. Apparently most of these
1.59 jolan 2694: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
2695: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
2696: cannot solve these issues.
1.58 deraadt 2697: <p>
2698: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
2699: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee. But no
2700: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
2701: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
2702: development model -- it becomes very hard for the principle of
2703: "quality" to show its head.
2704: <p>
2705: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
2706: <br>
2707: <ul>
1.60 pvalchev 2708: <li>Redundancy
1.58 deraadt 2709: <li>Repair
2710: </ul>
2711: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60 pvalchev 2712: fail, your data is not lost. But once a drive has failed, you require your
2713: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58 deraadt 2714: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
2715: <p>
2716: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
2717: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
2718: so that their devices could support Redundancy. But these vendors have
2719: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
2720: <p>
2721: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
2722: tools. These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67 jolan 2723: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58 deraadt 2724: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
2725: <p>
2726: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
2727: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
2728: the AMI controllers.
2729: <p>
2730: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
2731: rather simple primitives. This is all that we need to implement
2732: basic RAID management:
2733: <ul>
2734: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
2735: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
2736: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
2737: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
2738: </ul>
2739: <p>
2740: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
2741: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
2742: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
2743: <p>
2744: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
2745: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
2746: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
2747: <p>
1.60 pvalchev 2748: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
2749: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58 deraadt 2750: controllers now. And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
2751: may mean we can never get documentation for the
1.168 sthen 2752: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=gdt&sektion=4">gdt(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 2753: controllers.
2754: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
2755: would not get documentation, either.
2756: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
2757: look saintly.
2758: <p>
2759: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
2760: in OpenBSD, please buy
2761: <a href="http://www.lsilogic.com/products/megaraid/index.html">LSI/AMI</a>

2857: For an operating system to get anywhere in "the market" it must have
2858: good device support.<br>
2859: <br>
2860: Ethernet was our first concern. Many vendors refused to supply
2861: programmers with programming documentation for these chipsets. Donald
2862: Becker (Linux) and Bill Paul (FreeBSD) changed the rules of the game
2863: here: They wrote drivers for the chipsets that they could get
2864: documentation for, and as they succeeded in writing more and more
2865: drivers, eventually closed vendors slowly opened up until most
2866: ethernet chipset documentation was available. Today, some vendors
2867: still resist releasing ethernet chipset documentation (ie. Broadcom,
1.62 brad 2868: Intel, Marvell/SysKonnect, NVIDIA) but the driver problem is mostly
1.46 henning 2869: solved in the ethernet market.<br>
1.44 deraadt 2870: <br>
2871: Similar problems have happened in the SCSI, IDE, and RAID markets.
2872: Again, the problem was solved by writing drivers for documented
2873: devices first. If the free software user communities use those drivers
2874: preferentially, it is a market loss for the secretive vendors.
2875: Another approach that has worked is to publish email addresses and
2876: phone numbers for the marketing department managers in these
2877: companies. These email campaigns have worked almost every time.<br>
2878: <br>
2879: The new frontier: 802.11 wireless chipsets.<br>
2880: <br>
2881: Over the last six months, this came to a head in the OpenBSD project.
2882: We asked our users to help us petition numerous vendors so that we
2883: could get chipset documentation or redistributable firmware. Certainly, we did
1.52 deraadt 2884: not succeed for some vendors. But we did influence some vendors, in
1.44 deraadt 2885: particular the Taiwanese (Ralink and Realtek), who have given us
2886: everything we need. We also reverse engineered the Atheros chipsets.<br>
2887: <br>
2888:
2889: Want to help us? Avoid
1.168 sthen 2890: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=ipw">Intel Centrino</a>,
1.44 deraadt 2891: Broadcom, TI, or Connexant PrismGT chipsets.
2892: Heck, avoid buying even regular
1.168 sthen 2893: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=wi">old pre-G Prism products</a>,
1.44 deraadt 2894: to send a message.
1.48 deraadt 2895: If you can, buy 802.11 products using chips by
1.168 sthen 2896: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=rtw">Realtek</a>,

2900: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=ath">Atheros</a>.

1.52 deraadt 2902: which chipsets into which product.
1.44 deraadt 2903: <br>
2904: <br>
2905: Send a message that open support for hardware matters. A vendor in
1.56 cloder 2906: Redmond largely continues their practices because they get
1.44 deraadt 2907: the chipset documentation years before everyone else does.
2908: What really upsets us the most is that some Linux vendors are signing
2909: Non-Disclosure Agreements with vendors, or contracts that let them
2910: distribute firmwares. Meanwhile both Linux and FSF head developers
1.49 nick 2911: are not asking their communities to help us in our efforts to free

3016: What is up with some free software providers?!
3017: They say "Here's something free! Oh wait, I changed my mind."
3018: <p>
3019: While not exactly bait-and-switch, this is something which
3020: has been causing the community continual grief, and therefore
3021: we decided to honour a few of the projects that have decided
1.41 deraadt 3022: to go non-free. After all.. having gone non-free, no one is
1.37 deraadt 3023: going to remember them in the end.
3024: <p>
3025: This song is dedicated to a few worthy groups who
3026: have made this Free-to-Non-Free transition with their
3027: offerings in the last few years:
3028: <ul>
3029: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
3030: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
3031: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
3032: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that
3033: we must give him more credit (ie. advertise his name) or
3034: stop using it. Within about 4 months every project had
3035: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a
3036: replacement effort.
1.41 deraadt 3037: Now his team cannot even keep their web pages up to date...
1.37 deraadt 3038: <p>
3039: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
3040: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
3041: that we chose. But a few years later he told us that we
3042: were not free to make changes to the code. So we deleted ipf,
3043: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
3044: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
3045: <p>
3046: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
3047: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
3048: web server of dubious quality. But the years have changed them,
3049: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40 jolan 3050: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51 jcs 3051: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within. Legal terms
1.37 deraadt 3052: protect. Who are they protecting? Not your freedom.
3053: </ul>
3054: So here's a goodbye to those three groups, and a warning to any
3055: others who will follow them:
3056: Make your stuff non-free, and something else will
3057: replace it.

3179: A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
3180: and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
3181: themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
3182: redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
3183: Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
3184: <p>
3185: We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
1.168 sthen 3186: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
1.30 deraadt 3187: and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
3188: firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
3189: them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
3190: sessions. Our
1.168 sthen 3191: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
1.30 deraadt 3192: protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
3193: it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
3194: network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
3195: firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
3196: the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
3197: <p>
3198: The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
3199: 90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
3200: Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
3201: Redundancy Protocol); on
3202: <a href="http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
3203: March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
3204: "Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
3205: that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
3206: standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
3207: IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
3208: though there was a patent in the space. Why?
1.144 deraadt 3209: <a href="http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/doc/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
1.30 deraadt 3210: There was much deliberation</a>
3211: at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
3212: politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
3213: standards -- as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
3214: (Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
3215: programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
3216: RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
3217: the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
3218: and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
3219: eh?
3220: <p>
3221: Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
3222: (HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
3223: recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
3224: -- a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
3225: claim patent rights.
3226: <p>
3227: On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
3228: lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
3229: its patents for VRRP implementations -- meaning basically that it was
3230: impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
3231: implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
3232: Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
3233: small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
3234: against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
3235: members took note of our complaints,
1.122 deraadt 3236: <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20061109082106/http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
1.30 deraadt 3237: however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
3238: patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
3239: <p>
3240: A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
3241: to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
3242: and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
3243: backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
3244: avoid it -- the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
1.55 tom 3245: participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
1.30 deraadt 3246: Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
3247: is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
3248: like all others, except against the community.
3249: <p>
3250: Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
3251: benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
3252: <p>
3253: Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
3254: correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
3255: designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
3256: problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
3257: same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
3258: document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
3259: We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
3260: lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
3261: it to use cryptography.
3262: <p>
3263: The combination of
1.168 sthen 3264: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
3265: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
3266: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
1.30 deraadt 3267: has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
3268: have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
3269: running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
3270: group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
3271: our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
3272: to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
3273: this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
3274: <p>
3275: As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
3276: regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
3277: for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
3278: to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
3279: were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
3280: anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
3281: We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
3282: these decisions, but they declined to reply.
3283: <p>
3284: This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
3285: this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

3573: Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
1.26 deraadt 3574: the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
1.20 deraadt 3575: forces of the draconian government!
3576: <p>
3577: <br>
3578: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
3579: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
3580: of recent happenings.
3581: <p>
3582: Two years ago we became involved with the University
3583: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
3584: security research and development .. on things that
3585: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
3586: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
3587: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
3588: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
3589: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
3590: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
3591: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21 deraadt 3592: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 3593: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
3594: <p>
3595: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
3596: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
3597: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
3598: obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
1.67 jolan 3599: this sudden maneuver. Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20 deraadt 3600: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55 tom 3601: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20 deraadt 3602: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
3603: theft of oil.
3604: <p>
3605: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
3606: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
3607: <p>
3608: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
3609: project, and due to world events and the evolving
3610: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
3611: the Government on April 21 advised the University
3612: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
3613: the project."
3614: <p>
3615: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
3616: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
3617: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
3618: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
3619: <p>
3620: Since the termination came near natural contract
3621: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
3622: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
3623: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
3624: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61 grunk 3625: proceeded as planned. We even had T-shirts made with
1.20 deraadt 3626: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
3627: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
3628: <p>
3629: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
3630: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
3631: of Robin Hood.
