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.

Libnftnl is a userspace library providing a low-level netlink programming interface to the in-kernel nf_tables subsystem. The library libnftnl has been previously known as libnftables. This library is currently used by nftables.

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.

lshw (Hardware Lister) is a small tool to provide detailed information on the hardware configuration of the machine. It can report exact memory configuration, firmware version, mainboard configuration, CPU version and speed, cache configuration, bus speed, and more on DMI-capable x86 or EFI (IA-64) systems and on some PowerPC machines (PowerMac G4 is known to work).

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.

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.

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.

This simple tool injects fake MCEs into a running Linux kernel, to debug or test the kernel's EDAC-handling code specific to x86 and x86_64 platforms.

Real MCEs are internal CPU errors. Handling them correctly can be important to system stability and even prevent physical damage. In contrast, simulated MCEs produced by mce-inject are purely synthetic: injection happens only at the software level, inside the kernel, and is not visible to the platform hardware or firmware.

A convenient feature of mce-inject is that the input language used to describe MCEs is similar to the format used in Linux panic messages, with a few extensions. In general, you should be able to pipe in any logged MCE panic to simulate that same MCE.

The target kernel must have the CONFIG_X86_MCE_INJECT option enabled and the mce-inject module loaded if it exists.

Linux kernel patches and device-trees used for the MNT Reform systems

The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) provides audio and MIDI functionality to the Linux-based operating 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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

compsize takes a list of files (given as arguments) on a Btrfs file system and measures used compression types and effective compression ratio, producing a report.

A directory has no extents but has a (recursive) list of files. A non-regular file is silently ignored.

As it makes no sense to talk about compression ratio of a partial extent, every referenced extent is counted whole, exactly once -- no matter if you use only a few bytes of a 1GB extent or reflink it a thousand times. Thus, the uncompressed size will not match the number given by tar or du. On the other hand, the space used should be accurate (although obviously it can be shared with files outside our set).

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

This package provides a PAM module that hands over your login password to gpg-agent. This can be useful if you are using a GnuPG-based password manager like pass.

Headers of the Linux-Libre kernel.

This is the Linux driver for the Cray/HPE Cassini 1 and 2 high-speed network interconnect (aka. Slingshot), and its Ethernet driver. It includes the uapi/misc/cxi.h C header file for use by user-land software.

Currently the Linux driver itself is missing from this package.

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.

The libseccomp library provides an easy to use, platform independent, interface to the Linux Kernel's syscall filtering mechanism. The libseccomp API is designed to abstract away the underlying BPF based syscall filter language and present a more conventional function-call based filtering interface that should be familiar to, and easily adopted by, application developers.

This is the io_uring library, liburing. liburing provides helpers to setup and teardown io_uring instances, and also a simplified interface for applications that don't need (or want) to deal with the full kernel side implementation.
