HackAthon on the 23C3, 27th - 30th December, Berlin.

 **This is a coordination page of the participating developers.  Do not add topics unless you are prepared to join us and actually do the work.** 

## Tasks we will work on 


* 1:1 Threading LwpUserland

* import sound infrastructure changes

* use new installer


## Possible tasks 

All this seems very much like the ProjectsPage.  This needs to be merged.

infrastructure:


* bring in PCI bridging code from FreeBSD

* Linuxulator update

* Xen Support

* Sync our PCI code as much as possible with FreeBSD's to take advantage of power saving stuff.

* Import NetBSD's kauth implementation.

* amd64 support

* fix gcc4.1

* fix APIC_IO on SMP

* import FreeBSD's cpufreq and powerd

* import nsswitch code and maybe nssldap -- import is the wrong word. we don't do dynamic binaries in /bin, so we need to have a nssd and libc communicating.

* integrate the new (lua-based) installer


Performance:


* Automated benchmark scripts so we can track performance over time.

* What values do we want to benchmark?

* As much as we can. I guess that we could use http://bulk.fefe.de/scalability/ as basis and create some macro benchmarks from there.

* SYSENTER/SYSEXIT

* HPET

* anticipatory disk scheduler

* NetBSD's relcache -- NIH.  We have resident(1), which is supposed to be better.

* Kernel profiling and performance optimizations
Networking:


* bring in RSTP support changes to if_bridge.c from FreeBSD

FS:


* LFS

* XFS

* tmpfs

* userland filesystem support (possibly using caps?) (puffs from NetBSD?) (FUSE from FreeBSD/Csaba Henk?)

* v9fs support, i have read somewhere that the people that did the linux implementation could agree on licensing it as BSD if needed. Not sure this still applies.

* ZFS

* squashfs
