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.

Headers of the Linux-Libre kernel.

libnetfilter_cttimeout is the userspace library that provides the programming interface to the fine-grain connection tracking timeout infrastructure. With this library, you can create, update and delete timeout policies that can be attached to traffic flows. This library is used by conntrack-tools.

libnfnetlink is the low-level library for netfilter related kernel/userspace communication. It provides a generic messaging infrastructure for in-kernel netfilter subsystems (such as nfnetlink_log, nfnetlink_queue, nfnetlink_conntrack) and their respective users and/or management tools in userspace.

The i2c-tools package contains a heterogeneous set of I2C tools for Linux: a bus probing tool, a chip dumper, register-level SMBus access helpers, EEPROM decoding scripts, EEPROM programming tools, and a python module for SMBus access.

Hotspot is a standalone GUI for performance data analysis. It aims to be similar to KCachegrind, but for data collected with perf, a profiler for use with the kernel Linux. Its main feature is graphically visualizing a perf.data file.

The primary purpose of Csmith is to find compiler bugs with random programs using differential testing.

Iotop is a Python program with a top like user interface to show the processes currently causing I/O.

Tools for loading and managing Linux kernel modules, such as modprobe, insmod, lsmod, and more.

As a consequence of its monolithic design, file system code for Linux normally goes into the kernel itself---which is not only a robustness issue, but also an impediment to system extensibility. FUSE, for "file systems in user space", is a kernel module and user-space library that tries to address part of this problem by allowing users to run file system implementations as user-space processes.

This package provides a statically linked xfs_repair taken from the xfsprogs package. It is meant to be used in initrds.

iptables is the user-space command line program used to configure the Linux 2.4.x and later IPv4 packet filtering ruleset (firewall), including NAT (Network Address Translation).

This package also includes ip6tables, which is used to configure the IPv6 packet filter.

Both commands are targeted at system administrators.

This package provides a Linux Kernel module that controls battery charging of specific ThinkPad laptops. It also includes an improved version of the HDAPS driver. The underlying hardware interfaces are SMAPI and direct access to the embedded controller.

mdadm is a tool for managing Linux Software RAID arrays. It can create, assemble, report on, and monitor arrays. It can also move spares between raid arrays when needed.

Headers of the Linux-Libre kernel.

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.

This package provides an advanced monitor of critical system resources, supervises the heartbeat of processes, records deadline transgressions, and initiates a controlled reset if needed.

FBGrab is a framebuffer screenshot program that captures the Linux framebuffer and converts it to a PNG image. It can also convert a framebuffer dump file (copy) to a PNG image.

Kmod is a set of tools to handle common tasks with Linux kernel modules like insert, remove, list, check properties, resolve dependencies and aliases.

These tools are designed on top of libkmod, a library that is shipped with kmod. The aim is to be compatible with tools, configurations and indices from the module-init-tools project.

A *Free* project to implement OSF's RFC 86.0. Pluggable authentication modules are small shared object files that can be used through the PAM API to perform tasks, like authenticating a user at login. Local and dynamic reconfiguration are its key features.

This package provides Python bindings for interacting with GPIO devices that avoids the usage of older system-wide /sys interface.

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.

This is a port of the FreeBSD userland for Linux provided by the Chimera Linux distribution. Essentially, it is a collection of UNIX tools such as grep, cp, vi, etc. and can be used as an alternative to the corresponding implementations from the GNU project.

This package provides two Linux kernel drivers, ddcci and ddcci-backlight, that allows the control of DDC/CI monitors through the sysfs interface. The ddcci module creates a character device for each DDC/CI monitors in /dev/bus/ddcci/[I²C busnumber]. While the ddcci-backlight module allows the control of the backlight level or luminance property when supported under /sys/class/backlight/.
