184: The last 10 years, every 6 month period has (without fail)
1.77 deraadt 185: resulted in an official OpenBSD release making it to the FTP

192: or Edmonton (such as Peter Valchev or Bob Beck) test that
1.76 deraadt 193: the discs are full of (only) correct code. Ty Semaka works for
194: approximately two months to design and draw artwork that will fit
195: the designated theme, and coordinates with his music buddies to
196: write and record a song that also matches the theme.
197: <br>
198: <br>
199: Then the discs and all the artwork gets delivered to the plant,
200: so that they can be pressed in time for an official release date.

202: <br>
203: This release, instead of bemoaning vendors or organizations that
204: try to make our task of writing free software more difficult, we
205: instead celebrate the 10 years that we have been given (so far) to
206: write free software, express our themes in art, and the 5 years
207: that we have made music with a group of talented musicians.

1.76 deraadt 210: OpenBSD developers have been torturing each other for years now
211: with Humppa-style music, so this release our users get a taste
1.77 deraadt 212: of this too. Sometimes at hackathons you will hear the same
213: songs being played on multiple laptops, out of sync. It is
214: under such duress that much of our code gets written.

217: We feel like Pufferix and Bobilix delivering The Three Discs of
218: Freedom to those who want them whenever the need arises, then

326: OpenBSD emphasizes security. It also emphasizes openness. All the code
327: is there for all to see. Blobs are vendor-compiled binary drivers
328: without any source code. Hardware makers like them because they
329: obscure the details of how to make their hardware work. They hide bugs
330: and workarounds for bugs. Newer versions of blobs can weaken support
331: for older hardware and motivate people to buy new hardware.<br>
332: <br>
333: <br>
334: Blobs are expedient. Many other open source operating systems
335: cheerfully incorporate them; in fact their users demand them.<br>
336: <br>
337: <br>
338: But when you need to trust the system, how do you check the blob for
339: quality? For adherence to standards? How do you know the blob contains
340: no malicious code? No incompetent code? Inspection is impossible; you
341: can only test the black box. And when it breaks, you have no idea why.<br>
342: <br>
343: <br>
344: <ul>
345: <li>Blobs can be 'de-supported' by vendors<br>
346: at any time.<br>
347: <br>
348: <li>Blobs cannot be supported by developers.<br>
349: <br>
350: <li>Blobs cannot be fixed by developers.<br>
351: <br>
352: <li>Blobs cannot be improved.<br>
353: <br>
354: <li>Blobs cannot be audited.<br>
355: <br>
356: <li>
357: Blobs are specific to an architecture, thus<br>
358: less portable.<br>
359: <br>
360: <li>Blobs are quite often massively bloated.<br>
361: </ul>
362: <br>
363: <br>
364: This release, like every OpenBSD release, contains OpenBSD and its
365: source code. It runs on a wide variety of hardware. It contains many
366: new features and improvements. OpenBSD does attempt to convince
367: vendors to release documentation, and often reverse-engineers around
368: the need for blobs. OpenBSD remains blob-free. Anyone can look at it,
369: assess it, improve it. If it breaks, it can be fixed.

511: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
512: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
513: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
514: their devices.
515: <p>
516: Take Adaptec for instance. Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
517: for the
1.70 steven 518: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=aac&sektion=4">aac(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 519: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
520: They refused to give us documentation. Without documentation, support
521: for their controller had always been poor. The driver had bugs (which
522: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
523: course there was no RAID management support. Apparently most of these
1.59 jolan 524: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
525: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
526: cannot solve these issues.
1.58 deraadt 527: <p>
528: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
529: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee. But no
530: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
531: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
532: development model -- it becomes very hard for the principle of
533: "quality" to show its head.
534: <p>
535: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
536: <br>
537: <ul>
1.60 pvalchev 538: <li>Redundancy
1.58 deraadt 539: <li>Repair
540: </ul>
541: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60 pvalchev 542: fail, your data is not lost. But once a drive has failed, you require your
543: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58 deraadt 544: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
545: <p>
546: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
547: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
548: so that their devices could support Redundancy. But these vendors have
549: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
550: <p>
551: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
552: tools. These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67 jolan 553: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58 deraadt 554: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
555: <p>
556: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
557: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
558: the AMI controllers.
559: <p>
560: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
561: rather simple primitives. This is all that we need to implement
562: basic RAID management:
563: <ul>
564: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
565: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
566: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
567: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
568: </ul>
569: <p>
570: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
571: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
572: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
573: <p>
574: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
575: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
576: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
577: <p>
1.60 pvalchev 578: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
579: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58 deraadt 580: controllers now. And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
581: may mean we can never get documentation for the
1.70 steven 582: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=gdt&sektion=4">gdt(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 583: controllers.
584: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
585: would not get documentation, either.
586: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
587: look saintly.
588: <p>
589: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
590: in OpenBSD, please buy
591: <a href="http://www.lsilogic.com/products/megaraid/index.html">LSI/AMI</a>

691: For an operating system to get anywhere in "the market" it must have
692: good device support.<br>
693: <br>
694: Ethernet was our first concern. Many vendors refused to supply
695: programmers with programming documentation for these chipsets. Donald
696: Becker (Linux) and Bill Paul (FreeBSD) changed the rules of the game
697: here: They wrote drivers for the chipsets that they could get
698: documentation for, and as they succeeded in writing more and more
699: drivers, eventually closed vendors slowly opened up until most
700: ethernet chipset documentation was available. Today, some vendors
701: still resist releasing ethernet chipset documentation (ie. Broadcom,
1.62 brad 702: Intel, Marvell/SysKonnect, NVIDIA) but the driver problem is mostly
1.46 henning 703: solved in the ethernet market.<br>
1.44 deraadt 704: <br>
705: Similar problems have happened in the SCSI, IDE, and RAID markets.
706: Again, the problem was solved by writing drivers for documented
707: devices first. If the free software user communities use those drivers
708: preferentially, it is a market loss for the secretive vendors.
709: Another approach that has worked is to publish email addresses and
710: phone numbers for the marketing department managers in these
711: companies. These email campaigns have worked almost every time.<br>
712: <br>
713: The new frontier: 802.11 wireless chipsets.<br>
714: <br>
715: Over the last six months, this came to a head in the OpenBSD project.
716: We asked our users to help us petition numerous vendors so that we
717: could get chipset documentation or redistributable firmware. Certainly, we did
1.52 deraadt 718: not succeed for some vendors. But we did influence some vendors, in
1.44 deraadt 719: particular the Taiwanese (Ralink and Realtek), who have given us
720: everything we need. We also reverse engineered the Atheros chipsets.<br>
721: <br>
722:
723: Want to help us? Avoid
724: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ipw">Intel Centrino</a>,
725: Broadcom, TI, or Connexant PrismGT chipsets.
726: Heck, avoid buying even regular
1.48 deraadt 727: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=wi">old pre-G Prism products</a>,
1.44 deraadt 728: to send a message.
1.48 deraadt 729: If you can, buy 802.11 products using chips by
1.44 deraadt 730: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=rtw">Realtek</a>,
731: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ral">Ralink</a>,

734: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ath">Atheros</a>.
735: Our manual pages attempt to explain which vendors (ie. D-Link) box
1.52 deraadt 736: which chipsets into which product.
1.44 deraadt 737: <br>
738: <br>
739: Send a message that open support for hardware matters. A vendor in
1.56 cloder 740: Redmond largely continues their practices because they get
1.44 deraadt 741: the chipset documentation years before everyone else does.
742: What really upsets us the most is that some Linux vendors are signing
743: Non-Disclosure Agreements with vendors, or contracts that let them
744: distribute firmwares. Meanwhile both Linux and FSF head developers
1.49 nick 745: are not asking their communities to help us in our efforts to free
1.44 deraadt 746: development information for all, but are even going further and
747: telling their development communities to not work with us at
748: pressuring vendors. It is ridiculous.

855: <p>
856: While not exactly bait-and-switch, this is something which

861: <p>
862: This song is dedicated to a few worthy groups who
863: have made this Free-to-Non-Free transition with their
864: offerings in the last few years:
865: <ul>
866: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
867: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
868: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
869: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that
870: we must give him more credit (ie. advertise his name) or
871: stop using it. Within about 4 months every project had
872: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a
873: replacement effort.
1.41 deraadt 874: Now his team cannot even keep their web pages up to date...
1.37 deraadt 875: <p>
876: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
877: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
878: that we chose. But a few years later he told us that we
879: were not free to make changes to the code. So we deleted ipf,
880: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
881: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
882: <p>
883: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
884: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
885: web server of dubious quality. But the years have changed them,
886: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40 jolan 887: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51 jcs 888: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within. Legal terms
1.37 deraadt 889: protect. Who are they protecting? Not your freedom.
890: </ul>
891: So here's a goodbye to those three groups, and a warning to any
892: others who will follow them:
893: Make your stuff non-free, and something else will
894: replace it.

1019: A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
1020: and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
1021: themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
1022: redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
1023: Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
1024: <p>
1025: We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
1026: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
1027: and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
1028: firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
1029: them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
1030: sessions. Our
1031: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
1032: protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
1033: it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
1034: network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
1035: firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
1036: the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
1037: <p>
1038: The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
1039: 90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
1040: Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
1041: Redundancy Protocol); on
1042: <a href="http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
1043: March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
1044: "Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
1045: that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
1046: standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
1047: IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
1048: though there was a patent in the space. Why?
1049: <a href="http://www.cs-ipv6.lancs.ac.uk/ipv6/documents/standards/general-comms/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
1050: There was much deliberation</a>
1051: at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
1052: politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
1053: standards -- as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
1054: (Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
1055: programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
1056: RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
1057: the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
1058: and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
1059: eh?
1060: <p>
1061: Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
1062: (HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
1063: recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
1064: -- a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
1065: claim patent rights.
1066: <p>
1067: On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
1068: lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
1069: its patents for VRRP implementations -- meaning basically that it was
1070: impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
1071: implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
1072: Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
1073: small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
1074: against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
1075: members took note of our complaints,
1076: <a href="http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
1077: however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
1078: patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
1079: <p>
1080: A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
1081: to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
1082: and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
1083: backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
1084: avoid it -- the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
1.55 tom 1085: participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
1.30 deraadt 1086: Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
1087: is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
1088: like all others, except against the community.
1089: <p>
1090: Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
1091: benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
1092: <p>
1093: Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
1094: correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
1095: designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
1096: problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
1097: same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
1098: document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
1099: We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
1100: lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
1101: it to use cryptography.
1102: <p>
1103: The combination of
1104: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
1105: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
1106: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
1107: has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
1108: have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
1109: running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
1110: group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
1111: our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
1112: to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
1113: this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
1114: <p>
1115: As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
1116: regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
1117: for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
1118: to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
1119: were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
1120: anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
1121: We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
1122: these decisions, but they declined to reply.
1123: <p>
1124: This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
1125: this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

1417: Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
1.26 deraadt 1418: the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
1.20 deraadt 1419: forces of the draconian government!
1420: <p>
1421: <br>
1422: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
1423: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
1424: of recent happenings.
1425: <p>
1426: Two years ago we became involved with the University
1427: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
1428: security research and development .. on things that
1429: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
1430: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
1431: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
1432: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
1433: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
1434: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
1435: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21 deraadt 1436: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 1437: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
1438: <p>
1439: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
1440: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
1441: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
1442: obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
1.67 jolan 1443: this sudden maneuver. Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20 deraadt 1444: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55 tom 1445: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20 deraadt 1446: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
1447: theft of oil.
1448: <p>
1449: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
1450: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
1451: <p>
1452: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
1453: project, and due to world events and the evolving
1454: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
1455: the Government on April 21 advised the University
1456: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
1457: the project."
1458: <p>
1459: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
1460: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
1461: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
1462: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
1463: <p>
1464: Since the termination came near natural contract
1465: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
1466: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
1467: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
1468: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61 grunk 1469: proceeded as planned. We even had T-shirts made with
1.20 deraadt 1470: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
1471: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
1472: <p>
1473: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
1474: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
1475: of Robin Hood.
