This package provides a FUSE-based file system that provides read and write access to exFAT devices.

This simple daemon feeds entropy from the CPU Jitter RNG core to the kernel Linux's entropy estimator. This prevents the /dev/random device from blocking and should benefit users of the preferred /dev/urandom and getrandom() interfaces too.

The CPU Jitter RNG itself is part of the kernel and claims to provide good entropy by collecting and magnifying differences in CPU execution time as measured by the high-resolution timer built into modern CPUs. It requires no additional hardware or external entropy source.

The random bit stream generated by jitterentropy-rngd is not processed by a cryptographically secure whitening function. Nonetheless, its authors believe it to be a suitable source of cryptographically secure key material or other cryptographically sensitive data.

If you agree with them, start this daemon as early as possible to provide properly seeded random numbers to services like SSH or those using TLS during early boot when entropy may be low, especially in virtualised environments.

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

Libbpf supports building BPF CO-RE-enabled applications, which, in contrast to BCC, do not require the Clang/LLVM runtime or linux kernel headers.

Headers of the Linux-Libre kernel.

This package provides small event loop that wraps the epoll family of APIs.

This package provides a C port of NoteBook FanControl (NBFC), a fan control service for notebooks. It provides the same utilities with the same interfaces as the original NBFC, although the implementation differs.

This package provides userspace components for the InfiniBand subsystem of the Linux kernel. Specifically it contains userspace libraries for the following device nodes:

1. /dev/infiniband/uverbsX (libibverbs)

2. /dev/infiniband/rdma_cm (librdmacm)

3. /dev/infiniband/umadX (libibumad)

The following service daemons are also provided:

1. srp_daemon (for the ib_srp kernel module)

2. iwpmd (for iWARP kernel providers)

3. ibacm (for InfiniBand communication management assistant)

OpenFabrics Interfaces (OFI) is a framework focused on exporting fabric communication services to applications. OFI is best described as a collection of libraries and applications used to export fabric services. The key components of OFI are: application interfaces, provider libraries, kernel services, daemons, and test applications.

Libfabric is a core component of OFI. It is the library that defines and exports the user-space API of OFI, and is typically the only software that applications deal with directly. It works in conjunction with provider libraries, which are often integrated directly into libfabric.

This package provides the kexec program and ancillary utilities. Using kexec, it is possible to boot directly into a new kernel from the context of an already-running kernel, bypassing the normal system boot process.

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.

jmtpfs uses FUSE to provide access to data over MTP. Unprivileged users can mount the MTP device as a file system.

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. Configuration options and patches have been applied for use with MNT/Reform systems.

The bbswitch module provides a way to toggle the Nvidia graphics card on Optimus laptops.

Blktrace is a block layer IO tracing mechanism which provides detailed information about request queue operations to user space. It extracts event traces from the kernel (via the relaying through the debug file system).

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.

NUMA stands for Non-Uniform Memory Access, in other words a system whose memory is not all in one place. The numactl program allows you to run your application program on specific CPUs and memory nodes. It does this by supplying a NUMA memory policy to the operating system before running your program.

The package contains other commands, such as numastat, memhog, and numademo which provides a quick overview of NUMA performance on your system.

Libcap2 provides a programming interface to POSIX capabilities on Linux-based operating systems.

Early OOM is a minimalist out of memory (OOM) daemon that runs in user space and provides a more responsive and configurable alternative to the in-kernel OOM killer.

This package provides the following binaries to drive the Linux Device Mapper multipathing driver:

1. multipath - Device mapper target autoconfig.

2. multipathd - Multipath daemon.

3. mpathpersist - Manages SCSI persistent reservations on dm multipath devices.

4. kpartx - Create device maps from partition tables.

The libiec61883 library provides a higher level API for streaming DV, MPEG-2 and audio over Linux IEEE 1394.

iw is a new nl80211 based CLI configuration utility for wireless devices. It replaces iwconfig, which is deprecated.

python-spython is a Python library to interact with Singularity containers.

archivemount is a FUSE-based file system for Unix variants, including Linux. Its purpose is to mount archives (i.e. tar, tar.gz, etc.) to a mount point where it can be read from or written to as with any other file system. This makes accessing the contents of the archive, which may be compressed, transparent to other programs, without decompressing them.
