dnr | In reply to @netpleb:matrix.org I was thinking of trying it as a native btrfs backup method but where the remote backup server does not ever have access to the data. It simply exposes a block device that the client can setup with luks+btrfs. I have done this! I used a scheme like this for personal backups for a while, using btrfs send/recv over luks over iscsi over tcp over zerotier over slow home internet connections. It took a lot of tuning for reasonable performance, but after that it was actually more stable than I expected. Which is not to say that it was very stable.. I had low expectations :) It never got corrupted or badly wedged, but I decided it was just too risky for the case of backups, which are supposed to de-risk things. Local filesystems just aren't mean to run over high latency links. | 11:39:53 |
dnr | (Looking at the old code again, wow, this was crazy. I had to write an adaptive pipe with a PI control loop to limit the block requests in flight. Also a dm-cache layer so it didn't go back and forth for metadata so much. Fun project but yeah, crazy. I can share the code if anyone wants.) | 12:04:04 |

raitobezarius | Does anyone know of a way to parse IPv6 addresses in textual form with a zone identifier with the C library? | 21:15:44 |
raitobezarius | inet_pton doesn't seem to fit the bill | 21:15:48 |

I have also gotten further in my own testing of it and have been surprised how well it worked, or even that it worked at all (though I am not using it for anything real yet). I may ping you at some point in the near future if I end up pursuing this any further. | 22:46:01 |

woobilicious | anyone familiar with how perf is built on nixos? seems to fail to build on my custom version of kernel 6.10 | 05:38:50 |
| @zzantares:matrix.org changed their display name from zzantares to demo-reset. | 06:00:25 |

Mic92 | It's build from the linux kernel source afaik. | 08:46:08 |
Mic92 | linuxPackages.perf | 08:46:14 |
Mic92 | You should probably use the one matching your kernel. | 08:46:28 |
woobilicious | Mic92: Yeah that's what I meant I was using, i.e.
nix run self\#nixosConfigurations.Purple-Sunrise.config.boot.kernelPackages.perf | 11:09:50 |
woobilicious | I guess linux-testing has some packaging changes. complaining about missing libtraceevent | 11:19:00 |
