nftables is the project that aims to replace the existing ip,ip6,arp,ebtables framework. Basically, this project provides a new packet filtering framework, a new userspace utility and also a compatibility layer for ip,ip6tables. nftables is built upon the building blocks of the Netfilter infrastructure such as the existing hooks, the connection tracking system, the userspace queueing component and the logging subsystem.

This package provides a library called libpfm4, which is used to develop monitoring tools exploiting the performance monitoring events such as those provided by the Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) of modern processors.

Libpfm4 helps convert from an event name, expressed as a string, to the event encoding that is either the raw event as documented by the hardware vendor or the OS-specific encoding. In the latter case, the library is able to prepare the OS-specific data structures needed by the kernel to setup the event.

libpfm4 provides support for the perf_events interface, which was introduced in Linux 2.6.31.

WirePlumber is a modular session / policy manager for PipeWire and a GObject-based high-level library that wraps PipeWire's API, providing convenience for writing the daemon's modules as well as external tools for managing PipeWire.

This package provides a driver for the XBox One S Wireless controller and some newer models when connected via Bluetooth. In addition to the included Linux kernel module, it also contains a modprobe configuration and udev rules, which need to be installed separately.

Libcxi provides applications with a low-level interface to the Cray/HPE Cassini high-speed NIC, also known as Slingshot.

Utilities for Linux's Ethernet bridging facilities. A bridge is a way to connect two Ethernet segments together in a protocol independent way. Packets are forwarded based on Ethernet address, rather than IP address (like a router). Since forwarding is done at Layer 2, all protocols can go transparently through a bridge.

Tmon is a tool to interact with the complex thermal subsystem of the kernel Linux. It helps visualize thermal relationships and real-time thermal data, tune and test cooling devices and sensors, and collect thermal data for further analysis.

As computers become smaller and more thermally constrained, more sensors are added and new cooling capabilities introduced. Thermal relationships can change dynamically. Their complexity grows exponentially among cooling devices, zones, sensors, and trip points.

Linux exposes this relationship through /sys/class/thermal with a matrix of symbolic links, trip point bindings, and device instances. To traverse it by hand is no trivial task: tmon aims to make it understandable.

LVM2 is the logical volume management tool set for Linux-based systems. This package includes the user-space libraries and tools, including the device mapper. Kernel components are part of Linux-libre.

Libavc1394 is a programming interface to the AV/C specification from the 1394 Trade Association. AV/C stands for Audio/Video Control.

libnetfilter_acct is the userspace library providing interface to extended accounting infrastructure.

1. creating accounting objects

2. retrieving accounting objects (and atomically set to zero)

3. deleting accounting objects

For the nfnetlink_acct subsystem.

nfacct is the command line tool to create/retrieve/delete accounting objects

1. listing the objects of the nfacct table in plain text/XML

2. atomically get and reset objects of the nfacct table

3. adding new objects to the nfacct table

4. deleting objects from the nfacct table

This package is low-level user-level Intel's communications interface. The PSM2 API is a high-performance vendor-specific protocol that provides a low-level communications interface for the Intel Omni-Path family of high-speed networking devices.

The Python scripts in this project generate a GTK-UI to change TLP configuration files easily. It aims to protect users from setting bad configuration and to deliver a basic overview of all the valid configuration values.

SimpleIni provides a simple API to read and write INI-style configuration files. It supports data files in ASCII, MBCS and Unicode.

ipvsadm(8) is used to set up, maintain or inspect the virtual server table in the Linux kernel. The Linux Virtual Server can be used to build scalable network services based on a cluster of two or more nodes.

iotop identifies which processes and threads are most responsible for I/O activity such as disc reads and writes. It sorts them in a live, interactive table overview similar to that of the well-known top.

This information makes it much easier for an administrator to see which tasks are blocking others and adjust their priority (using ionice) or stop or kill them altogether.

This package provides a Linux tool for controlling a PS5 DualSense controller. It has to be already connected via USB or connected via Bluetooth.

GNU Linux-Libre is a free (as in freedom) variant of the Linux kernel. It has been modified to remove all non-free binary blobs.

ryzenadj is an utility to adjust power management settings for AMD Ryzen mobile processors. You will need to ensure it can access /dev/mem, for instance by using the "iomem=relaxed" kernel argument.

This utility can read or write specific registers or all the available registers of the EC supported by the ec_sys Linux driver.

Libraw1394 is the only supported interface to the kernel side raw1394 of the Linux IEEE-1394 subsystem, which provides direct access to the connected 1394 buses to user space. Through libraw1394/raw1394, applications can directly send to and receive from other nodes without requiring a kernel driver for the protocol in question.

F2FS, the Flash-Friendly File System, is a modern file system designed to be fast and durable on flash devices such as solid-state disks and SD cards. This package provides the userland utilities.

The rasdaemon daemon monitors platform RAS reports from Linux kernel trace events. These trace events are logged in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing and reported through standard log mechanisms like syslog.

PowerTOP is a Linux tool to diagnose issues with power consumption and power management. In addition to being a diagnostic tool, PowerTOP also has an interactive mode where the user can experiment various power management settings for cases where the operating system has not enabled these settings.
