279: Like the movie "Hackers", the OpenBSD project is now 25 years old.
280: Though the movie played no part in our focus on security.
281: <p>
282: What a ride it's been.
283: <p>
284: My little hobby project took itself both too seriously, and not
285: seriously at all. Then somewhere along the way the project started
286: collecting many seriously skilled developers who found it a
287: "fertile ground" to play and experiment. (To counter that, maybe they
288: didn't find other places as interesting, or didn't want to write
289: independent software which wasn't being adopted).
290: <p>
291: The "fertile ground" I'm talking about is our willingness to throw away
292: the old and replace it, or try to adopt or build security protections,
293: or integrate pieces normally not part of a unix system (such as the
294: extensive network components). The OpenSSH story comes from the same
295: approach.
296: <p>
297: In doing so, we didn't annoy too many people because we stayed true to
298: the spirit of old BSD unix. It <i>feels</i> like modernized SunOS 4.0,
1.219 tj 299: trying to be a highly cohesive complete system where all the parts are
1.223 jsg 300: supposed to work similarly, and if they don't, we consider changing them.
1.218 job 301: The ifconfig command has been extended greatly, but it remains :-)
302: <p>
303: Strangely, along the way our work started influencing the whole
304: software industry. The packet filter pf is included in some systems.
305: Our libc work is in other places. OpenSSH, privsep, and W^X and
306: address space randomization and other hardenings are either ubiquitous
307: now or inching that way. Pieces of our work are in nooks and crannies
308: everywhere, while the cohesive whole OpenBSD continues to be developed
309: apace.

1.212 deraadt 383: In OpenBSD developer circles few memes carry as strongly as "The 3
384: line diff". This is a humorous warning, but also a true story. More
385: than half the developers ("the new kids") don't know this story but
1.214 bentley 386: still repeat the meme — it has nearly become apocrypha.
1.212 deraadt 387: <p>
388: Unfortunately, in software development not all problems are as trivial
389: as we think.
390: <p>
391: The event happened at a hackathon in Portugal more than a decade ago.
392: <p>
393: In a eureka moment Art declared he had found a stunningly simple
1.214 bentley 394: solution for a problem long pondered, and he could fix it in 2 — no
395: — 3 lines. In the following weeks his change grew larger and larger,
1.212 deraadt 396: introducing (or exposing) other problems. We stood and stared. It
397: was far from a 3 line diff, and was eventually discarded.
398: <p>
1.215 fcambus 399: I am not writing words of mockery here. This is a common occurrence in
1.212 deraadt 400: complex software development. To do great things, we must reach for
401: the sky. Sometimes we fail, and quite often it is messy.
402: <p>
403: There is of course a danger we'll believe we are invincible, and push
404: a change which is too disruptive to others. For that reason, we
405: operate as a team. We can try to avoid hubris.
406: <p>
407: Therefore to this day posing a question like "And you can fix the
408: problem in 3 lines?" is a humorous way of keeping each other honest.

1.202 deraadt 485: OpenBSD was only a few months old when
486: we realized that read-only repository access
487: for everyone was a critical concept.
488: <p>
489: Previously, open source projects would make
490: occasional releases accompanied by tarballs of
491: final source files and Changelogs files, but would
492: not expose the step-by-step changes of the
493: development process. Unwittingly all open source
494: projects were operating with a walled garden
495: approach.
496: <p>
497: Chuck Cranor and I worked on the anoncvs feature, and
498: Bob Beck soon became involved in moving the anoncvs
499: mirror off my overloaded ISDN network to the
500: University of Alberta, thereby increasing our capacity
501: to deliver. Nowadays there are many anoncvs mirrors.
502: <p>
503: The introduction of anoncvs meant people without commit
504: access could read the commit logs, as well as each
505: committed diff. They could reason about the past as
506: they proposed new changes.
507: <p>
508: Anoncvs had an immediate impact expanding our development
509: group. We were inundated with high quality diffs. These
510: outsider developers wrote excellent changes because they had
511: sufficient context to reason upon. Those who overwhelmed us
512: with good changes became developers with commit access. We
513: were forced to hand out commit accounts like candy.
514: <p>
515: Some people said we would never last. Their cynicism
516: could almost be thanked for the increase in openness
517: we embraced, and then our openness probably led others
518: to embrace it also.

864: <p>
865: One of the things that we're passionate about is making changes to the
866: software ecosystem that make things safer for all of us - not just
867: OpenBSD. Very often we try techniques, and adopt practices on OpenBSD
868: to make things better across the ecosystem, and hope to encourage
869: others to follow our lead.
870: <p>
871: We've had a lot of great success upstreaming changes and ideas to
872: individual projects, often through the diligent work of the OpenBSD
873: ports developers. We've had less success promoting things up through
874: standards bodies and other projects. Too often the world seems caught
875: up in a seemingly suicidal "backward compatibility forever" fervor,
1.215 fcambus 876: exacerbated by standards bodies populated by corporate representation
1.188 deraadt 877: that does not want to make any kinds of disruptive changes that might
878: cause expense.
879: <p>
880: This time, once Theo put the bug in my ear, it didn't take me very
881: long. I pondered our recent efforts to fix random functions via
882: standards bodies, and considered the real possibility of my being

1381: We've done stuff about LibreSSL before, but this particular song just
1382: fit with the release theme. While the lyrics can speak for themselves,
1383: "A Year In The Life" is representative of more than just LibreSSL. The
1384: pattern of LibreSSL development is a pattern that has repeated itself
1.214 bentley 1385: many times in OpenBSD — a decision is made by a few people to do
1.159 deraadt 1386: something, followed by action, and letting the world share it if they
1387: like it (such as with OpenSSH). To the developers actually doing the
1388: work, reactions to such efforts can often seem surreal, or
1389: irrelevant. The juxtaposition of working on the very real with the
1390: surreal going on around you can often make working on such projects
1391: feel like you're in a bit of an altered reality.. Sort of like the
1392: song. A number of us have had many years like this in the last 20.

1502: No one <em>wants</em> to fork an open source project: it's a huge

1509: <p>
1510: The bigger questions remain for the open source development community

1.144 deraadt 1582: In January of 2038, 32-bit Unix time will overflow and wrap
1583: back to 1901. This is known as the
1584: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem">Year 2038 problem</a>.
1585: POSIX operating systems have made strong inroads into embedded
1586: roles, so this is anticipated to be substantially worse than the Y2K transition.
1587: <p>
1.146 guenther 1588: In August of 2012, Philip Guenther started the OpenBSD work to
1.157 deraadt 1589: solve this.
1.146 guenther 1590: After a year of work it was ready enough for merging, and in August 2013
1591: the <b>time_t</b> type was changed to int64_t on all
1592: platforms and the kernel and userland were adapted to the new
1593: situation. The initial work was committed right after OpenBSD 5.4,
1594: then polished in tree over the next 6 months.
1.144 deraadt 1595: <p>
1596: The next part of the process was to drag the "ports" software
1.146 guenther 1597: ecosystem along because no one else had paved the way for 32-bit
1.144 deraadt 1598: machines to run with 64-bit <b>time_t</b>. This required a fair
1599: bit of upstream involvement. Thousands of fixes were required to
1600: make both 32-bit and 64-bit time work transparently. There will
1601: be more fixing in the future, but the concept is proven.
1602: <p>
1603: In the past OpenBSD pushed risky theoretical ideas into mainstream
1604: software practice by proving the ecosystem was ready to change.
1605: No OS wants to make a ABI jump until the case for change is proven.
1606: Stack protection, ASLR, and W^X principles are now in common use
1607: by mainline operating systems... because things like Firefox
1608: and Postgresql don't break anymore. OpenBSD built that route.
1609: <p>
1610: In the same way, the road is paved for the 64-bit <b>time_t</b>
1611: transition. Other operating systems can now make this jump.

1.132 beck 1779: Just as the original song professed its love for Brazil, "World,
1780: you'll love my Linux" is the passionate call of an idealistic dreamer
1781: who can't bear the thought of software that will only run under
1782: Windows, and yet loves the situation with software that will only run
1783: under particular Linux distributions.
1784: <p>
1785: This problem has proliferated itself into the standards bodies, with
1786: Posix adopting Linuxisms ahead of any other variant of Unix.
1787: <p>
1788: Posix and Unix have made it where you can write reasonably portable
1789: software and have it compile and run across a multitude of platforms.
1.157 deraadt 1790: Now this seems to be changing as the love for Linux drives the
1791: standards bodies into accepting everything Linux, good and bad.
1.132 beck 1792: <p>
1793: We also are faced with groups writing software that only works
1794: with particular distributions of Linux. From this we get software that
1795: not only isn't very portable, but often not particularly stable. Our
1796: idealistic dreamer in the song loves running one, or more than one distribution
1797: of Linux for a particular purpose. Unfortunately, the rest of us are left
1798: with the unattractive choice of doing the same, or relying on
1799: herculean efforts to port software that is being actively developed in a
1.157 deraadt 1800: way to discourage porting it to other platforms.

2570: hindered the acceptance of the BSD code during a critical period.
2571: But how did a bunch of guys go through the effort of replacing so
2572: much AT&T code in the first place? After all, companies had
1.214 bentley 2573: lots of really evil lawyers back then too — were they not afraid?
1.216 bentley 2574: <p>
1.104 deraadt 2575: After a decade of development, most of the AT&T code had
2576: already been replaced by university researchers and their associates.
2577: So Keith Bostic, Mike Karels and Kirk McKusick (the main UCB CSRG group)
2578: started going through the 4.3BSD codebase to cleanse the rest.
2579: Keith, in particular, built a ragtag team (in those days, USENIX
2580: conferences were a gold mine for such team building) and led these
2581: rebels to rewrite and replace all the Imperial AT&T code, piece by
2582: piece, starting with the libraries and userland programs.
1.214 bentley 2583: Anyone who helped only got credit as a Contributor — people like
1.104 deraadt 2584: Chris Torek and a cast of .. hundreds more.
1.216 bentley 2585: <p>
1.105 deraadt 2586: Then Mike and Kirk purified the kernel. After a bit more careful
1.104 deraadt 2587: checking, this led to the release of a clean tree called Net/2 which
1.214 bentley 2588: was given to the world in June 1991 — the largest dump of free source
2589: code the world had ever received (for those days — not modern monsters like OpenOffice).
1.216 bentley 2590: <p>
1.104 deraadt 2591: Some of these ragtags formed a company (BSDi) to sell a production system
2592: based on this free code base, and a year later Unix System Laboratories
2593: (basically AT&T) sued BSDi and UCB.
2594: Eventually AT&T lost and after a few trifling fixes (described in the
2595: lawsuit documents) the codebase was free. A few newer developments
2596: (and more free code) were added, and released in June 1994 as 4.4BSD-Lite.
2597: Just over 14 years later OpenBSD is releasing its own 4.4 release (and for
1.207 deraadt 2598: a lot less than $1000 per copy).
1.216 bentley 2599: <p>
1.104 deraadt 2600: The OpenBSD 4.4 release is dedicated to Keith Bostic, Mike Karels, Kirk McKusick,
2601: and all of those who contributed to making Net/2 and 4.4BSD-Lite free.

1.216 bentley 2714: <p>
1.95 deraadt 2715: In 1998 when a United Airlines plane was waiting in the queue at
1.102 deraadt 2716: Washington Dulles International Airport for take-off to New Orleans
2717: (where a Usenix conference was taking place), one man stood up from
2718: his seat, demanded that they stop waiting in the queue and be permitted
1.95 deraadt 2719: to deplane. Even after orders from the crew and a pilot from
2720: the cockpit he refused to sit down. The plane exited the queue
1.96 deraadt 2721: and returned to the airport gangway. Security personnel ran onto
1.95 deraadt 2722: the plane and removed this man, Richard Stallman, from the plane.
2723: After Richard was removed from the plane, everyone else stayed
2724: onboard and continued their journey to New Orleans. A few
1.216 bentley 2725: OpenBSD developers were on that same plane, seated very close by,
1.95 deraadt 2726: so we have an accurate story of the events.
1.216 bentley 2727: <p>
1.95 deraadt 2728: This is the man who presumes that he should preach to us
2729: about morality, freedom, and what is best for us. He believes
2730: it is his God-given role to tell us what is best for us, when he
2731: has shown that he takes actions which are not best for everyone.
1.214 bentley 2732: He prefers actions which he thinks are best for him — and him
2733: alone — and then lies to the public. Richard Stallman is no Spock.
1.216 bentley 2734: <p>
1.95 deraadt 2735: We release our software in ways that are maximally free. We
2736: remove all restrictions on use and distribution, but leave a
2737: requirement to be known as the authors. We follow a pattern of
2738: free source code distribution that started in the mid-1980's
2739: in Berkeley, from before Richard Stallman had any powerful
2740: influence which he could use so falsely.
1.216 bentley 2741: <p>
1.95 deraadt 2742: We have a development sub-tree called "ports". Our "ports" tree
2743: builds software that is 'found on the net' into packages that
2744: OpenBSD users can use more easily. A scaffold of Makefiles and
2745: scripts automatically fetch these pieces of software, apply
2746: patches as required by OpenBSD, and then build them into nice
2747: neat little tarballs. This is provided as a convenience for
1.97 okan 2748: users. The ports tree is maintained by OpenBSD entirely separately
1.95 deraadt 2749: from our main source tree. Some of the software which is fetched
2750: and compiled is not as free as we would like, but what can we do.
2751: All the other operating system projects make exactly the same
2752: decision, and provide these same conveniences to their users.
1.216 bentley 2753: <p>
1.95 deraadt 2754: Richard felt that this "ports tree" of ours made OpenBSD non-free.
2755: He came to our mailing lists and lectured to us specifically, yet
2756: he said nothing to the many other vendors who do the same; many of
2757: them donate to the FSF and perhaps that has something to do with it.
2758: Meanwhile, Richard has personally made sure that all the official
1.214 bentley 2759: GNU software — including Emacs — compiles and runs on Windows.
1.216 bentley 2760: <p>
1.95 deraadt 2761: That man is a false leader. He is a hypocrite. There may be some
2762: people who listen to him. But we don't listen to people who do not
2763: follow their own stupid rules.

1.90 deraadt 2858: Those of us who work on OpenBSD are often asked why we do what we do.
1.91 merdely 2859: This song's lyrics express the core motivations and goals which have
1.214 bentley 2860: remained unchanged over the years — secure, free, reliable software,
1.90 deraadt 2861: that can be shared with anyone. Many other projects purport to share
2862: these same goals, and love to wrap themselves in a banner of "Open
2863: Source" and "Free Software". Given how many projects there are one
2864: would think it might be easy to stick to those goals, but it doesn't
2865: seem to work out that way. A variety of desires drag many projects
2866: away from the ideals very quickly.
2867: <p>
1.93 jmc 2868: Much of any operating system's usability depends on device support,
1.91 merdely 2869: and there are some very tempting alternative ways to support devices
1.90 deraadt 2870: available to those who will surrender their moral code. A project
2871: could compromise by entering into NDA agreements with vendors, or
2872: including binary objects in the operating system for which no source
2873: code exists, or tying their users down with contract terms hidden
2874: inside copyright notices. All of these choices surrender some subset
2875: of the ideals, and we simply will not do this. Sure, we care about
2876: getting devices working, but not at the expense of our original goals.
2877: <p>
2878: Of course since "free to share with anyone" is part of our goals,
2879: we've been at the forefront of many licensing and NDA issues,
1.91 merdely 2880: resulting in a good number of successes. This success had led to much
1.90 deraadt 2881: recognition for the advancement of Free Software causes, but has also
2882: led to other issues.
2883: <p>
2884: We fully admit that some BSD licensed software has been taken and used
2885: by many commercial entities, but contributions come back more often
2886: than people seem to know, and when they do, they're always still
2887: properly attributed to the original authors, and given back in the
2888: same spirit that they were given in the first place.
2889: <p>
2890: That's the best we can expect from companies. After all, we make our
1.214 bentley 2891: stuff so free so that everyone can benefit — it remains a core goal;
1.90 deraadt 2892: we really have not strayed at all in 10 years. But we can expect more
1.214 bentley 2893: from projects who talk about sharing — such as the various Linux
1.90 deraadt 2894: projects.
2895: <p>
2896: Now rather than seeing us as friends who can cooperatively improve all
2897: codebases, we are seen as foes who oppose the GPL. The participants
2898: of "the race" are being manipulated by the FSF and their legal arm, the
2899: SFLC, for the FSF's aims, rather than the goal of getting good source
2900: into Linux (and all other code bases). We don't want this to come off
2901: as some conspiracy theory, but we simply urge those developers caution
1.214 bentley 2902: — they should ensure that the path they are being shown by those who
1.90 deraadt 2903: have positioned themselves as leaders is still true. Run for yourself,
2904: not for their agenda.
2905: <p>
2906: The Race is there to be run, for ourselves, not for others. We do
2907: what we do to run our own race, and finish it the best we can. We
2908: don't rush off at every distraction, or worry how this will affect our
2909: image. We are here to have fun doing right.

3007: <p>
1.81 deraadt 3008: As developers of a free operating system, one of our prime responsibilities
3009: is device support. No matter how nice an operating system is, it remains
3010: useless and unusable without solid support for a wide percentage of the
3011: hardware that is available on the market. It is therefore rather unsurprising
3012: that more than half of our efforts focus on various aspects relating to
3013: device support.
3014: <p>
1.85 mbalmer 3015: Most parts of the operating system (from low kernel, through to libraries,
1.81 deraadt 3016: all the way up to X, and then even to applications) use fairly obvious
3017: interface layers, where the "communication protocols" or "argument passing"
3018: mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be understood by any developer who takes the
3019: time to read the free code. Device drivers pose an additional and significant
3020: challenge though: because many vendors refuse to document the exact behavior
3021: of their devices. The devices are black boxes. And often they are surprisingly
3022: weird, or even buggy.
3023: <p>
3024: When vendor documentation does not exist, the development process can
3025: become extremely hairy. Groups of developers have found themselves focused
3026: for months at a time, figuring out the most simple steps, simply because
3027: the hardware is a complete mystery. Access to documentation can ease
3028: these difficulties rapidly. However, getting access to the chip documentation
3029: from vendors is ... almost always a negotiation. If we had open access to
1.84 matthieu 3030: documentation, anyone would be able to see how simple all these devices
1.81 deraadt 3031: actually are, and device driver development would flourish (and not just in
3032: OpenBSD, either).
3033: <p>
3034: When we proceed into negotiations with vendors, asking for documentation,
3035: our position is often weak. One would assume that the modern market is fair,
3036: and that selling chips would be the primary focus of these vendors. But
3037: unfortunately a number of behemoth software vendors have spent the last 10 or
3038: 20 years building
1.83 wvdputte 3039: <a href="papers/brhard2007/mgp00024.html">
1.81 deraadt 3040: political hurdles against the smaller players</a>.
3041: <p>
1.82 jsg 3042: A particularly nasty player in this regard has been the Linux vendors and
1.87 tom 3043: some Linux developers, who have played along with an American corporate model
1.81 deraadt 3044: of requiring NDAs for chip documentation. This has effectively put Linux
3045: into the club with Microsoft, but has left all the other operating system
1.214 bentley 3046: communities — and their developers — with much less available clout for
1.81 deraadt 3047: requesting documentation. In a more fair world, the Linux vendors would
3048: work with us, and the device driver support in all free operating systems
3049: would be fantastic by now.

1.63 deraadt 3381: OpenBSD emphasizes security. It also emphasizes openness. All the code
3382: is there for all to see. Blobs are vendor-compiled binary drivers
3383: without any source code. Hardware makers like them because they
3384: obscure the details of how to make their hardware work. They hide bugs
3385: and workarounds for bugs. Newer versions of blobs can weaken support
1.216 bentley 3386: for older hardware and motivate people to buy new hardware.
3387: <p>
1.63 deraadt 3388: Blobs are expedient. Many other open source operating systems
1.216 bentley 3389: cheerfully incorporate them; in fact their users demand them.
3390: <p>
1.63 deraadt 3391: But when you need to trust the system, how do you check the blob for
3392: quality? For adherence to standards? How do you know the blob contains
3393: no malicious code? No incompetent code? Inspection is impossible; you
1.216 bentley 3394: can only test the black box. And when it breaks, you have no idea why.
1.63 deraadt 3395: <ul>
1.216 bentley 3396: <li>Blobs can be 'de-supported' by vendors at any time.
3397: <li>Blobs cannot be supported by developers.
3398: <li>Blobs cannot be fixed by developers.
3399: <li>Blobs cannot be improved.
3400: <li>Blobs cannot be audited.
3401: <li>Blobs are specific to an architecture, thus less portable.
3402: <li>Blobs are quite often massively bloated.
1.63 deraadt 3403: </ul>
1.216 bentley 3404: <p>
1.63 deraadt 3405: This release, like every OpenBSD release, contains OpenBSD and its
3406: source code. It runs on a wide variety of hardware. It contains many
3407: new features and improvements. OpenBSD does attempt to convince
3408: vendors to release documentation, and often reverse-engineers around
3409: the need for blobs. OpenBSD remains blob-free. Anyone can look at it,
1.157 deraadt 3410: assess it, improve it. If it breaks, it can be fixed.

3547: <div class=commentary>
3548: <p>
1.58 deraadt 3549: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
3550: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
3551: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
3552: their devices.
3553: <p>
3554: Take Adaptec for instance. Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
3555: for the
1.204 tb 3556: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=aac&sektion=4">aac(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 3557: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
3558: They refused to give us documentation. Without documentation, support
3559: for their controller had always been poor. The driver had bugs (which
3560: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
3561: course there was no RAID management support. Apparently most of these
1.59 jolan 3562: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
3563: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
3564: cannot solve these issues.
1.58 deraadt 3565: <p>
3566: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
3567: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee. But no
3568: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
3569: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
1.214 bentley 3570: development model — it becomes very hard for the principle of
1.58 deraadt 3571: "quality" to show its head.
3572: <p>
3573: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
3574: <ul>
1.60 pvalchev 3575: <li>Redundancy
1.58 deraadt 3576: <li>Repair
3577: </ul>
1.216 bentley 3578: <p>
1.58 deraadt 3579: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60 pvalchev 3580: fail, your data is not lost. But once a drive has failed, you require your
3581: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58 deraadt 3582: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
3583: <p>
3584: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
3585: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
3586: so that their devices could support Redundancy. But these vendors have
3587: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
3588: <p>
3589: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
3590: tools. These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67 jolan 3591: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58 deraadt 3592: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
3593: <p>
3594: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
3595: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
3596: the AMI controllers.
3597: <p>
3598: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
3599: rather simple primitives. This is all that we need to implement
3600: basic RAID management:
3601: <ul>
3602: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
3603: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
3604: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
3605: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
3606: </ul>
3607: <p>
3608: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
3609: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
3610: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
3611: <p>
3612: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
3613: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
3614: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
3615: <p>
1.60 pvalchev 3616: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
3617: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58 deraadt 3618: controllers now. And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
3619: may mean we can never get documentation for the
1.204 tb 3620: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=gdt&sektion=4">gdt(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 3621: controllers.
3622: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
3623: would not get documentation, either.
3624: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
3625: look saintly.
3626: <p>
3627: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
3628: in OpenBSD, please buy
1.216 bentley 3629: LSI/AMI RAID cards. And everything

3736: <p>
1.44 deraadt 3737: For an operating system to get anywhere in "the market" it must have
1.216 bentley 3738: good device support.
3739: <p>
1.44 deraadt 3740: Ethernet was our first concern. Many vendors refused to supply
3741: programmers with programming documentation for these chipsets. Donald
3742: Becker (Linux) and Bill Paul (FreeBSD) changed the rules of the game
3743: here: They wrote drivers for the chipsets that they could get
3744: documentation for, and as they succeeded in writing more and more
3745: drivers, eventually closed vendors slowly opened up until most
3746: ethernet chipset documentation was available. Today, some vendors
3747: still resist releasing ethernet chipset documentation (ie. Broadcom,
1.62 brad 3748: Intel, Marvell/SysKonnect, NVIDIA) but the driver problem is mostly
1.216 bentley 3749: solved in the ethernet market.
3750: <p>
1.44 deraadt 3751: Similar problems have happened in the SCSI, IDE, and RAID markets.
3752: Again, the problem was solved by writing drivers for documented
3753: devices first. If the free software user communities use those drivers
3754: preferentially, it is a market loss for the secretive vendors.
3755: Another approach that has worked is to publish email addresses and
3756: phone numbers for the marketing department managers in these
1.216 bentley 3757: companies. These email campaigns have worked almost every time.
3758: <p>
3759: The new frontier: 802.11 wireless chipsets.
3760: <p>
1.44 deraadt 3761: Over the last six months, this came to a head in the OpenBSD project.
3762: We asked our users to help us petition numerous vendors so that we
3763: could get chipset documentation or redistributable firmware. Certainly, we did
1.52 deraadt 3764: not succeed for some vendors. But we did influence some vendors, in
1.44 deraadt 3765: particular the Taiwanese (Ralink and Realtek), who have given us
1.216 bentley 3766: everything we need. We also reverse engineered the Atheros chipsets.
3767: <p>
1.44 deraadt 3768: Want to help us? Avoid
1.204 tb 3769: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=ipw">Intel Centrino</a>,
1.44 deraadt 3770: Broadcom, TI, or Connexant PrismGT chipsets.
3771: Heck, avoid buying even regular
1.204 tb 3772: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=wi">old pre-G Prism products</a>,
1.44 deraadt 3773: to send a message.
1.48 deraadt 3774: If you can, buy 802.11 products using chips by
1.204 tb 3775: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=rtw">Realtek</a>,

3778: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=awi">ADMTek</a>,
3779: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=ath">Atheros</a>.
1.44 deraadt 3780: Our manual pages attempt to explain which vendors (ie. D-Link) box
1.52 deraadt 3781: which chipsets into which product.
1.216 bentley 3782: <p>
1.44 deraadt 3783: Send a message that open support for hardware matters. A vendor in
1.56 cloder 3784: Redmond largely continues their practices because they get
1.44 deraadt 3785: the chipset documentation years before everyone else does.
3786: What really upsets us the most is that some Linux vendors are signing

1.37 deraadt 3894: What is up with some free software providers?!
3895: They say "Here's something free! Oh wait, I changed my mind."
3896: <p>
3897: While not exactly bait-and-switch, this is something which
3898: has been causing the community continual grief, and therefore
3899: we decided to honour a few of the projects that have decided
1.41 deraadt 3900: to go non-free. After all.. having gone non-free, no one is
1.37 deraadt 3901: going to remember them in the end.
3902: <p>
3903: This song is dedicated to a few worthy groups who
3904: have made this Free-to-Non-Free transition with their
3905: offerings in the last few years:
3906: <ul>
3907: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
3908: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
3909: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
3910: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that
3911: we must give him more credit (ie. advertise his name) or
3912: stop using it. Within about 4 months every project had
3913: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a
3914: replacement effort.
1.41 deraadt 3915: Now his team cannot even keep their web pages up to date...
1.37 deraadt 3916: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
3917: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
3918: that we chose. But a few years later he told us that we
3919: were not free to make changes to the code. So we deleted ipf,
3920: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
3921: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
3922: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
3923: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
3924: web server of dubious quality. But the years have changed them,
3925: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40 jolan 3926: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51 jcs 3927: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within. Legal terms
1.37 deraadt 3928: protect. Who are they protecting? Not your freedom.
3929: </ul>
1.216 bentley 3930: <p>
1.37 deraadt 3931: So here's a goodbye to those three groups, and a warning to any
3932: others who will follow them:
3933: Make your stuff non-free, and something else will
3934: replace it.

1.30 deraadt 4054: A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
4055: and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
4056: themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
4057: redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
4058: Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
4059: <p>
4060: We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
1.204 tb 4061: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
1.30 deraadt 4062: and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
4063: firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
4064: them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
4065: sessions. Our
1.204 tb 4066: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
1.30 deraadt 4067: protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
4068: it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
4069: network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
4070: firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
4071: the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
4072: <p>
4073: The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
4074: 90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
4075: Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
4076: Redundancy Protocol); on
1.205 tb 4077: <a href="https://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
1.30 deraadt 4078: March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
4079: "Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
4080: that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
4081: standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
4082: IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
4083: though there was a patent in the space. Why?
1.144 deraadt 4084: <a href="http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/doc/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
1.30 deraadt 4085: There was much deliberation</a>
4086: at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
4087: politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
1.214 bentley 4088: standards — as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
1.30 deraadt 4089: (Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
4090: programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
4091: RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
4092: the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
4093: and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
4094: eh?
4095: <p>
4096: Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
4097: (HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
4098: recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
1.214 bentley 4099: — a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
1.30 deraadt 4100: claim patent rights.
4101: <p>
4102: On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
4103: lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
1.214 bentley 4104: its patents for VRRP implementations — meaning basically that it was
1.30 deraadt 4105: impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
4106: implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
4107: Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
4108: small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
4109: against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
4110: members took note of our complaints,
1.122 deraadt 4111: <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20061109082106/http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
1.30 deraadt 4112: however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
4113: patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
4114: <p>
4115: A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
4116: to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
4117: and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
4118: backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
1.214 bentley 4119: avoid it — the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
1.55 tom 4120: participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
1.30 deraadt 4121: Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
4122: is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
4123: like all others, except against the community.
4124: <p>
4125: Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
4126: benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
4127: <p>
4128: Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
4129: correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
4130: designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
4131: problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
4132: same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
4133: document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
4134: We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
4135: lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
4136: it to use cryptography.
4137: <p>
4138: The combination of
1.204 tb 4139: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
4140: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
4141: <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
1.30 deraadt 4142: has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
4143: have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
4144: running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
4145: group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
4146: our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
4147: to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
4148: this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
4149: <p>
4150: As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
4151: regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
4152: for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
4153: to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
4154: were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
4155: anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
4156: We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
4157: these decisions, but they declined to reply.
4158: <p>
4159: This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
4160: this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

1.20 deraadt 4448: Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
1.26 deraadt 4449: the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
1.20 deraadt 4450: forces of the draconian government!
4451: <p>
4452: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
4453: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
4454: of recent happenings.
4455: <p>
4456: Two years ago we became involved with the University
4457: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
4458: security research and development .. on things that
4459: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
4460: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
4461: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
4462: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
4463: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
4464: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
4465: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.214 bentley 4466: than funding — heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 4467: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
4468: <p>
4469: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
4470: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
4471: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
1.185 tj 4472: obligations. Many articles in the press followed regarding
1.67 jolan 4473: this sudden maneuver. Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20 deraadt 4474: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55 tom 4475: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20 deraadt 4476: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
4477: theft of oil.
4478: <p>
4479: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
4480: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
4481: <p>
4482: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
4483: project, and due to world events and the evolving
4484: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
4485: the Government on April 21 advised the University
4486: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
4487: the project."
4488: <p>
4489: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
4490: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
4491: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
4492: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
4493: <p>
4494: Since the termination came near natural contract
4495: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
4496: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
4497: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
4498: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61 grunk 4499: proceeded as planned. We even had T-shirts made with
1.20 deraadt 4500: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
4501: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
4502: <p>
4503: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
4504: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
4505: of Robin Hood.
