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.

Firejail is a SUID sandbox program that reduces the risk of security breaches by restricting the running environment of untrusted applications using Linux namespaces, seccomp-bpf and Linux capabilities. The software includes sandbox profiles for a number of common Linux programs. Firejail should be added to the list of setuid programs in the system configuration to work properly.

Tpacpi-bat is a command-line interface to control battery charging on Lenovo ThinkPad models released after 2011, starting with the xx20 series. It can query and set the thresholds at which one or both batteries will start and stop charging, inhibit charging batteries for a set period of time, or force them to discharge when they otherwise would not.

This tool merely exposes ACPI calls provided by the acpi_call Linux kernel module provided by the acpi-call-linux-module package, which must be installed and loaded separately. Only the original vendor firmware is supported.

Nvme-cli is a utility to provide standards compliant tooling for NVM-Express drives. It was made specifically for Linux as it relies on the IOCTLs defined by the mainline kernel driver.

This package provides commands to create and check XFS file systems.

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.

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).

BCC is a toolkit for creating efficient kernel tracing and manipulation programs, and includes several useful tools and examples. It makes use of extended BPF (Berkeley Packet Filters), formally known as eBPF, a new feature that was first added to Linux 3.15. Much of what BCC uses requires Linux 4.1 and above.

The Falco security libraries include libsinsp and libscap. libscap manages the data capture process, while libsinsp is a system inspection library that enriches events from libscap with machine state. libsinsp also performs events filtering with rule evaluation through its internal rule engine. These libraries are used by the sysdig command-line utility.

The inotify-tools packages provides a C library and command-line tools to use Linux' inotify mechanism, which allows file accesses to be monitored.

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.

A suite of tools for manipulating the metadata of the dm-thin, dm-cache and dm-era device-mapper targets.

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.

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 includes the important tools for controlling the network subsystem of the Linux kernel. This includes arp, ifconfig, netstat, rarp and route. Additionally, this package contains utilities relating to particular network hardware types (plipconfig, slattach) and advanced aspects of IP configuration (iptunnel, ipmaddr).

bpftrace is a high-level tracing language for Linux enhanced Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) available in recent Linux kernels (4.x). bpftrace uses LLVM as a backend to compile scripts to BPF-bytecode and makes use of BCC for interacting with the Linux BPF system, as well as existing Linux tracing capabilities: kernel dynamic tracing (kprobes), user-level dynamic tracing (uprobes), and tracepoints. The bpftrace language is inspired by awk and C, and predecessor tracers such as DTrace and SystemTap. bpftrace was created by Alastair Robertson.

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.

These are a set of utilities built upon sysfs, a virtual file system in Linux kernel versions 2.5+ that exposes a system's device tree. The package also contains the libsysfs library.

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.

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

This package provides a statically linked ntfsfix taken from the ntfs-3g 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.

cpupower is a set of user-space tools that use the cpufreq feature of the Linux kernel to retrieve and control processor features related to power saving, such as frequency and voltage scaling.

This is a collection of tests written over uverbs intended for use as a performance micro-benchmark. The tests may be used for hardware or software tuning as well as for functional testing.

The collection contains a set of bandwidth and latency benchmark such as:

1. Send - ib_send_bw and ib_send_lat

2. RDMA Read - ib_read_bw and ib_read_lat

3. RDMA Write - ib_write_bw and ib_wriet_lat

4. RDMA Atomic - ib_atomic_bw and ib_atomic_lat

5. Native Ethernet (when working with MOFED2) - raw_ethernet_bw, raw_ethernet_lat
