81: We are just plain tired of being lectured to by a man
82: who is a lot like
83: <a href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/04/08/campbell_grounded/">Naomi Campbell</a>.
84: <br>
85: <br>
86: In 1998 when a United Airlines plane was waiting in the queue at
87: Chicago Airport for take-off to New Orleans (where a Usenix
88: conference was taking place), one man stood up from his seat,
89: demanded that they stop waiting in the queue and be permitted
90: to deplane. Even after orders from the crew and a pilot from
91: the cockpit he refused to sit down. The plane exited the queue
1.96 deraadt 92: and returned to the airport gangway. Security personnel ran onto
1.95 deraadt 93: the plane and removed this man, Richard Stallman, from the plane.
94: After Richard was removed from the plane, everyone else stayed
95: onboard and continued their journey to New Orleans. A few
96: OpenBSD developers were on that same plane, seated very closeby,
97: so we have an accurate story of the events.
98: <br>
99: <br>
100: This is the man who presumes that he should preach to us
101: about morality, freedom, and what is best for us. He believes
102: it is his God-given role to tell us what is best for us, when he
103: has shown that he takes actions which are not best for everyone.
104: He prefers actions which he thinks are best for him -- and him
105: alone -- and then lies to the public. Richard Stallman is no Spock.
106: <br>
107: <br>
108: We release our software in ways that are maximally free. We
109: remove all restrictions on use and distribution, but leave a
110: requirement to be known as the authors. We follow a pattern of
111: free source code distribution that started in the mid-1980's
112: in Berkeley, from before Richard Stallman had any powerful
113: influence which he could use so falsely.
114: <br>
115: <br>
116: We have a development sub-tree called "ports". Our "ports" tree
117: builds software that is 'found on the net' into packages that
118: OpenBSD users can use more easily. A scaffold of Makefiles and
119: scripts automatically fetch these pieces of software, apply
120: patches as required by OpenBSD, and then build them into nice
121: neat little tarballs. This is provided as a convenience for
1.97 okan 122: users. The ports tree is maintained by OpenBSD entirely separately
1.95 deraadt 123: from our main source tree. Some of the software which is fetched
124: and compiled is not as free as we would like, but what can we do.
125: All the other operating system projects make exactly the same
126: decision, and provide these same conveniences to their users.
127: <br>
128: <br>
129: Richard felt that this "ports tree" of ours made OpenBSD non-free.
130: He came to our mailing lists and lectured to us specifically, yet
131: he said nothing to the many other vendors who do the same; many of
132: them donate to the FSF and perhaps that has something to do with it.
133: Meanwhile, Richard has personally made sure that all the official
134: GNU software -- including Emacs -- compiles and runs on Windows.
135: <br>
136: <br>
137: That man is a false leader. He is a hypocrite. There may be some
138: people who listen to him. But we don't listen to people who do not
139: follow their own stupid rules.

239: Those of us who work on OpenBSD are often asked why we do what we do.
1.91 merdely 240: This song's lyrics express the core motivations and goals which have
1.90 deraadt 241: remained unchanged over the years - secure, free, reliable software,
242: that can be shared with anyone. Many other projects purport to share
243: these same goals, and love to wrap themselves in a banner of "Open
244: Source" and "Free Software". Given how many projects there are one
245: would think it might be easy to stick to those goals, but it doesn't
246: seem to work out that way. A variety of desires drag many projects
247: away from the ideals very quickly.
248: <p>
1.93 jmc 249: Much of any operating system's usability depends on device support,
1.91 merdely 250: and there are some very tempting alternative ways to support devices
1.90 deraadt 251: available to those who will surrender their moral code. A project
252: could compromise by entering into NDA agreements with vendors, or
253: including binary objects in the operating system for which no source
254: code exists, or tying their users down with contract terms hidden
255: inside copyright notices. All of these choices surrender some subset
256: of the ideals, and we simply will not do this. Sure, we care about
257: getting devices working, but not at the expense of our original goals.
258: <p>
259: Of course since "free to share with anyone" is part of our goals,
260: we've been at the forefront of many licensing and NDA issues,
1.91 merdely 261: resulting in a good number of successes. This success had led to much
1.90 deraadt 262: recognition for the advancement of Free Software causes, but has also
263: led to other issues.
264: <p>
265: We fully admit that some BSD licensed software has been taken and used
266: by many commercial entities, but contributions come back more often
267: than people seem to know, and when they do, they're always still
268: properly attributed to the original authors, and given back in the
269: same spirit that they were given in the first place.
270: <p>
271: That's the best we can expect from companies. After all, we make our
272: stuff so free so that everyone can benefit -- it remains a core goal;
273: we really have not strayed at all in 10 years. But we can expect more
274: from projects who talk about sharing -- such as the various Linux
275: projects.
276: <p>
277: Now rather than seeing us as friends who can cooperatively improve all
278: codebases, we are seen as foes who oppose the GPL. The participants
279: of "the race" are being manipulated by the FSF and their legal arm, the
280: SFLC, for the FSF's aims, rather than the goal of getting good source
281: into Linux (and all other code bases). We don't want this to come off
282: as some conspiracy theory, but we simply urge those developers caution
283: -- they should ensure that the path they are being shown by those who
284: have positioned themselves as leaders is still true. Run for yourself,
285: not for their agenda.
286: <p>
287: The Race is there to be run, for ourselves, not for others. We do
288: what we do to run our own race, and finish it the best we can. We
289: don't rush off at every distraction, or worry how this will affect our
290: image. We are here to have fun doing right.

393: As developers of a free operating system, one of our prime responsibilities
394: is device support. No matter how nice an operating system is, it remains
395: useless and unusable without solid support for a wide percentage of the
396: hardware that is available on the market. It is therefore rather unsurprising
397: that more than half of our efforts focus on various aspects relating to
398: device support.
399: <p>
1.85 mbalmer 400: Most parts of the operating system (from low kernel, through to libraries,
1.81 deraadt 401: all the way up to X, and then even to applications) use fairly obvious
402: interface layers, where the "communication protocols" or "argument passing"
403: mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be understood by any developer who takes the
404: time to read the free code. Device drivers pose an additional and significant
405: challenge though: because many vendors refuse to document the exact behavior
406: of their devices. The devices are black boxes. And often they are surprisingly
407: weird, or even buggy.
408: <p>
409: When vendor documentation does not exist, the development process can
410: become extremely hairy. Groups of developers have found themselves focused
411: for months at a time, figuring out the most simple steps, simply because
412: the hardware is a complete mystery. Access to documentation can ease
413: these difficulties rapidly. However, getting access to the chip documentation
414: from vendors is ... almost always a negotiation. If we had open access to
1.84 matthieu 415: documentation, anyone would be able to see how simple all these devices
1.81 deraadt 416: actually are, and device driver development would flourish (and not just in
417: OpenBSD, either).
418: <p>
419: When we proceed into negotiations with vendors, asking for documentation,
420: our position is often weak. One would assume that the modern market is fair,
421: and that selling chips would be the primary focus of these vendors. But
422: unfortunately a number of behemoth software vendors have spent the last 10 or
423: 20 years building
1.83 wvdputte 424: <a href="papers/brhard2007/mgp00024.html">
1.81 deraadt 425: political hurdles against the smaller players</a>.
426: <p>
1.82 jsg 427: A particularly nasty player in this regard has been the Linux vendors and
1.87 tom 428: some Linux developers, who have played along with an American corporate model
1.81 deraadt 429: of requiring NDAs for chip documentation. This has effectively put Linux
430: into the club with Microsoft, but has left all the other operating system
431: communities -- and their developers -- with much less available clout for
432: requesting documentation. In a more fair world, the Linux vendors would
433: work with us, and the device driver support in all free operating systems

444: Here's an old story ...<br>
445: <br>
446: <br>
447: Puffy Baba and the 40 Vendors<br>
448: We all know the details<br>
449: Magic cave, magic words, some thieves,<br>
450: some serious loot,<br>
451: and lucky - Mister - Baba<br>
452: Who got a bad rap if you ask me<br>
453: The little guy who<br>
454: did the best with what he had<br>
455: <br>
456: <br>
457: Here are Mr. Baba's lessons<br>
458: Load one ass, take a few trips and spend<br>
459: in moderation<br>
460: Three things the average man can't - get - right<br>
461: <br>
462: <br>
463: If you know your brother is a greedy bastard<br>
464: never give him the password<br>
465: If he goes penguin on you,<br>
466: stop - being - his brother.<br>
467: When a cave is guarded by magic lawyers<br>
1.86 tom 468: A sea of blood will be its doormat<br>
1.81 deraadt 469: So do the best with what you have<br>
470: <br>
471: <br>
472: Beyond the lessons - you must know this<br>
473: that the Devil is as real as your address<br>
474: But unlike Vendors,<br>
475: he at least keeps the door open<br>
476: <br>
477: <br>
478: Vendors of water that should be free<br>
479: Look upon their words and despair<br>
480: Their badvertising made a thief of my brother<br>
481: then made him better off dead<br>
482: Now he hasn't got shit to do his best with<br>
483: <br>
484: <br>
485: Gratis. Free. Libre. Cuffo.<br>
486: The companies of thieves stole every good adjective<br>
487: and left us with open source (sores)<br>
488: sharing smaller and smaller bandages<br>
489: for each consecutive cut<br>
490: But with the salty water of labour<br>
491: parched desert becomes pregnant black soil<br>
492: <br>
493: <br>
494: It's not whether you're well off<br>
495: it's where you dig the well<br>
496: The best the little guy can do is what<br>
497: the little guy does right<br>

777: OpenBSD emphasizes security. It also emphasizes openness. All the code
778: is there for all to see. Blobs are vendor-compiled binary drivers
779: without any source code. Hardware makers like them because they
780: obscure the details of how to make their hardware work. They hide bugs
781: and workarounds for bugs. Newer versions of blobs can weaken support
782: for older hardware and motivate people to buy new hardware.<br>
783: <br>
784: <br>
785: Blobs are expedient. Many other open source operating systems
786: cheerfully incorporate them; in fact their users demand them.<br>
787: <br>
788: <br>
789: But when you need to trust the system, how do you check the blob for
790: quality? For adherence to standards? How do you know the blob contains
791: no malicious code? No incompetent code? Inspection is impossible; you
792: can only test the black box. And when it breaks, you have no idea why.<br>
793: <br>
794: <br>
795: <ul>
796: <li>Blobs can be 'de-supported' by vendors<br>
797: at any time.<br>
798: <br>
799: <li>Blobs cannot be supported by developers.<br>

803: <li>Blobs cannot be improved.<br>
804: <br>
805: <li>Blobs cannot be audited.<br>
806: <br>
807: <li>
808: Blobs are specific to an architecture, thus<br>
809: less portable.<br>

811: <li>Blobs are quite often massively bloated.<br>

813: <br>
814: <br>
815: This release, like every OpenBSD release, contains OpenBSD and its
816: source code. It runs on a wide variety of hardware. It contains many
817: new features and improvements. OpenBSD does attempt to convince
818: vendors to release documentation, and often reverse-engineers around
819: the need for blobs. OpenBSD remains blob-free. Anyone can look at it,
820: assess it, improve it. If it breaks, it can be fixed.

961: For a multitude of (stupid) reasons, vendors often attempt to lock
962: out our participation with their customers by refusing to give our
963: programmers sufficient documentation so that we can properly support
964: their devices.
965: <p>
966: Take Adaptec for instance. Before the 3.7 release we disabled support
967: for the
1.70 steven 968: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=aac&sektion=4">aac(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 969: Adaptec RAID driver because negotiations with the Adaptec had failed.
970: They refused to give us documentation. Without documentation, support
971: for their controller had always been poor. The driver had bugs (which
972: affected some users more than others) which caused crashes, and of
973: course there was no RAID management support. Apparently most of these
1.59 jolan 974: bugs are because the Adaptec controllers have numerous buggy firmware
975: issues which require careful workarounds; without documentation we
976: cannot solve these issues.
1.58 deraadt 977: <p>
978: The driver was written by an OpenBSD developer, who cribbed parts
979: of it from a FreeBSD driver written by an ex-Adaptec employee. But no
980: public documentation exists, and Adaptec has dozens of cards with
981: different firmware issues. All of this adds up to a very desperate
982: development model -- it becomes very hard for the principle of
983: "quality" to show its head.
984: <p>
985: RAID devices have two main qualities that people buy them for:
986: <br>
987: <ul>
1.60 pvalchev 988: <li>Redundancy
1.58 deraadt 989: <li>Repair
990: </ul>
991: You want a RAID unit to provide you with redundancy, so that if some drives
1.60 pvalchev 992: fail, your data is not lost. But once a drive has failed, you require your
993: array to (automatically, most likely) perform the operations to repair
1.58 deraadt 994: itself, so that it is functioning perfectly again.
995: <p>
996: Some vendors (or like the above Adaptec case, ex-employee) have
997: sometimes given us some documentation so that we could write drivers,
998: so that their devices could support Redundancy. But these vendors have
999: never given us any documentation for performing Repairs.
1000: <p>
1001: Instead these vendors have tried to pass out non-free RAID management
1002: tools. These are typically gigantic Linux binaries, or some crazy thing, that
1.67 jolan 1003: is supposed to work through a bizarre interface in the device driver, which
1.58 deraadt 1004: we are apparently supposed to write code for without any documentation.
1005: <p>
1006: And since we refuse to accept our users being forced into depending on
1007: vendor binaries, we have reverse engineered the management interface for
1008: the AMI controllers.
1009: <p>
1010: There is no great "intellectual property" in this stuff, it is all
1011: rather simple primitives. This is all that we need to implement
1012: basic RAID management:
1013: <ul>
1014: <li>SCSI transactions on the back-side busses
1015: <li>Discovering which drives are in which volumes
1016: <li>Being able to silence the buzzer
1017: <li>Marking a new drive as a Hot-Spare
1018: </ul>
1019: <p>
1020: The AMI driver needed to support these small primitive operations.
1021: And once we had that, we rely on something else which we know: Almost
1022: all the RAID controllers would need the same primitives.
1023: <p>
1024: Thus armed, we were able to write a generic framework which would later
1025: work on other vendors' RAID cards, that is, once we get documentation
1026: or do some reverse engineering for their products.
1027: <p>
1.60 pvalchev 1028: But having been ignored for so long by these vendors, it is not clear when (if
1029: ever) we will get around to writing that support for Adaptec RAID
1.58 deraadt 1030: controllers now. And Adaptec has gone and bought ICP Vortex, which
1031: may mean we can never get documentation for the
1.70 steven 1032: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=gdt&sektion=4">gdt(4)</a>
1.58 deraadt 1033: controllers.
1034: The "Open Source Friendly liar" IBM owns Mylex, and Mylex has told us we
1035: would not get documentation, either.
1036: 3Ware has lied to us and our users so many times they make politicians
1037: look saintly.
1038: <p>
1039: Until other vendors give us documentation, if you want reliable RAID
1040: in OpenBSD, please buy
1041: <a href="http://www.lsilogic.com/products/megaraid/index.html">LSI/AMI</a>

1140: For an operating system to get anywhere in "the market" it must have
1141: good device support.<br>
1142: <br>
1143: Ethernet was our first concern. Many vendors refused to supply
1144: programmers with programming documentation for these chipsets. Donald
1145: Becker (Linux) and Bill Paul (FreeBSD) changed the rules of the game
1146: here: They wrote drivers for the chipsets that they could get
1147: documentation for, and as they succeeded in writing more and more
1148: drivers, eventually closed vendors slowly opened up until most
1149: ethernet chipset documentation was available. Today, some vendors
1150: still resist releasing ethernet chipset documentation (ie. Broadcom,
1.62 brad 1151: Intel, Marvell/SysKonnect, NVIDIA) but the driver problem is mostly
1.46 henning 1152: solved in the ethernet market.<br>
1.44 deraadt 1153: <br>
1154: Similar problems have happened in the SCSI, IDE, and RAID markets.
1155: Again, the problem was solved by writing drivers for documented
1156: devices first. If the free software user communities use those drivers
1157: preferentially, it is a market loss for the secretive vendors.
1158: Another approach that has worked is to publish email addresses and
1159: phone numbers for the marketing department managers in these
1160: companies. These email campaigns have worked almost every time.<br>
1161: <br>
1162: The new frontier: 802.11 wireless chipsets.<br>
1163: <br>
1164: Over the last six months, this came to a head in the OpenBSD project.
1165: We asked our users to help us petition numerous vendors so that we
1166: could get chipset documentation or redistributable firmware. Certainly, we did
1.52 deraadt 1167: not succeed for some vendors. But we did influence some vendors, in
1.44 deraadt 1168: particular the Taiwanese (Ralink and Realtek), who have given us
1169: everything we need. We also reverse engineered the Atheros chipsets.<br>
1170: <br>
1171:
1172: Want to help us? Avoid
1173: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ipw">Intel Centrino</a>,
1174: Broadcom, TI, or Connexant PrismGT chipsets.
1175: Heck, avoid buying even regular

1.44 deraadt 1177: to send a message.

1183: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ath">Atheros</a>.
1184: Our manual pages attempt to explain which vendors (ie. D-Link) box
1.52 deraadt 1185: which chipsets into which product.
1.44 deraadt 1186: <br>

1188: Send a message that open support for hardware matters. A vendor in
1.56 cloder 1189: Redmond largely continues their practices because they get
1.44 deraadt 1190: the chipset documentation years before everyone else does.
1191: What really upsets us the most is that some Linux vendors are signing
1192: Non-Disclosure Agreements with vendors, or contracts that let them
1193: distribute firmwares. Meanwhile both Linux and FSF head developers
1.49 nick 1194: are not asking their communities to help us in our efforts to free

1304: <p>
1305: While not exactly bait-and-switch, this is something which

1.37 deraadt 1309: going to remember them in the end.
1310: <p>
1311: This song is dedicated to a few worthy groups who
1312: have made this Free-to-Non-Free transition with their
1313: offerings in the last few years:
1314: <ul>
1315: <li>David Dawes worked for years with a team of
1316: developers to make a free X11 distribution for us to use,
1317: called XFree86, 98% of which was based on entirely free
1318: code from MIT. Suddenly, one day, he decided that
1319: we must give him more credit (ie. advertise his name) or
1320: stop using it. Within about 4 months every project had
1321: told him to get stuffed, and the community has created a
1322: replacement effort.
1.41 deraadt 1323: Now his team cannot even keep their web pages up to date...
1.37 deraadt 1324: <p>
1325: <li>OpenBSD was the first operating system to integrate a
1326: packet filter, and it was the ipf codebase from Darren Reed
1327: that we chose. But a few years later he told us that we
1328: were not free to make changes to the code. So we deleted ipf,
1329: and our new packet filter far exceeds the capabilities of the
1330: one he wrote. And other projects are switching too...
1331: <p>
1332: <li>The Apache group started from the humble beginnings
1333: of just being 'a patchy' set of changes to a completely free
1334: web server of dubious quality. But the years have changed them,
1335: and what they supply is now quite non-free... released under
1.40 jolan 1336: a license so entangled in legalese that we have absolutely no
1.51 jcs 1337: doubt that there are encumbrances hidden within. Legal terms
1.37 deraadt 1338: protect. Who are they protecting? Not your freedom.
1339: </ul>
1340: So here's a goodbye to those three groups, and a warning to any
1341: others who will follow them:
1342: Make your stuff non-free, and something else will
1343: replace it.

1468: A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
1469: and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
1470: themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
1471: redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
1472: Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
1473: <p>
1474: We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
1475: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
1476: and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
1477: firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
1478: them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
1479: sessions. Our
1480: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
1481: protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
1482: it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
1483: network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
1484: firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
1485: the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
1486: <p>
1487: The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
1488: 90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
1489: Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
1490: Redundancy Protocol); on
1491: <a href="http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
1492: March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
1493: "Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
1494: that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
1495: standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
1496: IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
1497: though there was a patent in the space. Why?
1498: <a href="http://www.cs-ipv6.lancs.ac.uk/ipv6/documents/standards/general-comms/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
1499: There was much deliberation</a>
1500: at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
1501: politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
1502: standards -- as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
1503: (Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
1504: programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
1505: RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
1506: the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
1507: and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
1508: eh?
1509: <p>
1510: Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
1511: (HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
1512: recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
1513: -- a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
1514: claim patent rights.
1515: <p>
1516: On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
1517: lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
1518: its patents for VRRP implementations -- meaning basically that it was
1519: impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
1520: implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
1521: Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
1522: small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
1523: against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
1524: members took note of our complaints,
1525: <a href="http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
1526: however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
1527: patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
1528: <p>
1529: A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
1530: to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
1531: and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
1532: backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
1533: avoid it -- the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
1.55 tom 1534: participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
1.30 deraadt 1535: Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
1536: is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
1537: like all others, except against the community.
1538: <p>
1539: Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
1540: benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
1541: <p>
1542: Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
1543: correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
1544: designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
1545: problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
1546: same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
1547: document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
1548: We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
1549: lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
1550: it to use cryptography.
1551: <p>
1552: The combination of
1553: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
1554: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
1555: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
1556: has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
1557: have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
1558: running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
1559: group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
1560: our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
1561: to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
1562: this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
1563: <p>
1564: As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
1565: regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
1566: for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
1567: to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
1568: were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
1569: anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
1570: We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
1571: these decisions, but they declined to reply.
1572: <p>
1573: This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
1574: this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

1866: Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
1.26 deraadt 1867: the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
1.20 deraadt 1868: forces of the draconian government!
1869: <p>
1870: <br>
1871: As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
1872: making release artwork and music which are allegorical
1873: of recent happenings.
1874: <p>
1875: Two years ago we became involved with the University
1876: of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
1877: security research and development .. on things that
1878: we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
1879: wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
1880: DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
1881: credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
1882: a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
1883: promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
1884: was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
1.21 deraadt 1885: than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
1.20 deraadt 1886: forces of government, and needed to be careful.
1887: <p>
1888: A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
1889: and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
1890: they also aggressively backed out of contractual
1891: obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
1.67 jolan 1892: this sudden maneuver. Apparently this hoopla happened
1.20 deraadt 1893: because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
1.55 tom 1894: newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
1.20 deraadt 1895: making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
1896: theft of oil.
1897: <p>
1898: The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
1899: DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
1900: <p>
1901: "As a result of the DARPA review of the
1902: project, and due to world events and the evolving
1903: threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
1904: the Government on April 21 advised the University
1905: to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
1906: the project."
1907: <p>
1908: That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
1909: We had lost financial support, but the release of the
1910: statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
1911: of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
1912: <p>
1913: Since the termination came near natural contract
1914: termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
1915: than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
1916: stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
1917: we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
1.61 grunk 1918: proceeded as planned. We even had T-shirts made with
1.20 deraadt 1919: "Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
1920: developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
1921: <p>
1922: We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
1923: we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
1924: of Robin Hood.
