 7c6f434c | Sounds good… | 19:00:06 |
| 7c6f434c | (but significant work adapting to the BeOS APIs, of course) | 19:00:33 |
 Anderson Torres | Well, there are some messages on their board about POSIX support on Haiku (basically they say: yes, Haiku is POSIX-compliant):
https://discuss.haiku-os.org/t/is-haiku-a-unix-like-os/8801/3
| 19:09:45 |
| Anderson Torres | If the POSIX API can be used, maybe the BeOS will not be a huge problem... | 19:12:34 |

 Alexandra | How do you get the avr-gcc cross-compiling chain for AVR microcontrollers in Nixpkgs? I've tried crossSystem = { config = "avr-unknown-unknown"; }; and some variations of that | 23:32:38 |

I want those more riscv cores How come? | 21:04:43 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Can you do something meaningful with an increased core count? | 21:04:58 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Let's say I have a really powerful x86 processor, that has 4 cores 8 threads. Can I be more effective by making a risv64 QEMU VM with more than 4 cores? | 21:05:34 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Can I lie and get more performance out of the VM, and make more use of the host processor? | 21:05:45 |
 Zhaofeng Li | You don't, it's mostly for when you have a 5950X with 32 threads for example | 22:07:25 |

You don't, it's mostly for when you have a 5950X with 32 threads for example I do actually have that :D | 17:37:07 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | but would I not get more performance out of the vm if I lied and said I had 64 threads? | 17:37:48 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | or is qemu smart enough to completely saturate each thread? | 17:38:10 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I'm basically asking if it works like this https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/advanced-topics/cores-vs-jobs.html where there is a tradeoff. I don't expect it to, but it's worth asking. | 17:39:11 |

 ius | Zhaofeng Li: Thanks for mentioning me on that VisionFive kernel PR. Been a bit busy lately, but otherwise I would've missed it. Kicked off a fresh qemu-user build as well to see where things stand. | 20:13:09 |

 samueldr | Zhaofeng Li: looks like someone started working on some level of support for the VisifonFive in Tow-Boot, if it matters for you
