IPC standing for Inter Process Communication in this instance.
What else would it stand for?
It's instructions per clock/cycle in a hardware context, because you can't use clock speeds to compare performance between processors.
That is true...
Interastral Peace Corp
What about Intraastral Peace Corps?
Instructions per cycle
Was what I first read anyways
I find it annoying when an article contains ATANE.
Clear case of DOTA.
This could be interesting, a bit worried how this will effect existing binder in distros and DKMS modules since waydroid relies on these
Distros will work a bit at shipping the right toolchain the first time they ship a rust-written module, but otherwise, it can't break userspace. I guess they'll start by merging the close reimplementation to make regressions easy to track.
The C binder driver has been in the mainline kernel for one or two years at this point.
just because its in mainline, doesnt mean distros build them though we are now seeing more and more distros use them, binder/fs being enabled is not a given
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
