And you know secureboot and TPM exist since far more than 2 years right?
In the fossdem conference?

Yeah, that’s the point of secureboot, go on

Alex 2022-09-14 19:09:22

i won’t be arrogant enough to ask how hard is it to introduce actual secureboot support in grub by default

Alex 2022-09-14 19:09:30

how do you sign kernel and ramdisk

Alex 2022-09-14 19:09:43

let’s put it in application not just theory

Sinit = sin it

“you’ve got sixteen sin points, that’s pretty good.”

There are applications already 🤷‍♂

sinit isn’t capable of doing everything needed. It’s not complete enough for production.

It was never intended to be “feature complete”, its only goal is to be the minimum an init should, the user has to fill in the gaps

Does it reap zombies and all?

yes

qontinuum 2022-09-14 19:11:22

Does it reap zombies and all?

IIRC yes

capezotte 2022-09-14 19:11:47

sinit just doesn’t supervise any programs

qontinuum 2022-09-14 19:11:49

Nice, so real minimal but complete

Well, it isn’t the point of the init

capezotte 2022-09-14 19:12:05

it spawns /etc/rc and reaps zombies
