Jacket not warm enough ...

... in this end of January, finally the coldness has decided to show up :-) hope you are all fine whatever your plans are. First, sorry for the motivated people willing to go through the last meetup but finally most of the other organisers could not make it. Professional life or little health issues had came in our way in the last moment. We will try to make it happen as soon as we can ...

Since the last time, OpenBSD started, carefully, to import LLVM 7 (in base) while backporting fixes for the code generation. The port version is planned too as you can see here. Also, for the non hardcode followers, OpenBSD default terminal font had been changed/updated (depends how you see it :-)), which frankly quite rejuvenate it, it is definitely more modern looking to my tastes at least.

In a more personal level, I have been doing quite a lot of Android (NDK) development professionally but still had time to contribute to some of the projects I usually overwatch. For instance, php 7.4 will give FreeBSD the possibility to support the "huge" page features for FreeBSD for the opcache module (thus different than the super page support I mentioned a couple of months ago since it resided in the general zend engine memory allocation). I ve had proposed a little update for the network interface lookup functions too which seems to be accepted (basically displaying also if an interface is up or not) but not merged yet.

I will push further new features to radare, one is the possibility to display a binary hashes suite from rabin2 (for now only visible from r2).
