No + matter how nice an operating system is, it remains + useless and unusable without solid support for a + wide percentage of the hardware that is available + on the market. It is therefore rather unsurprising + that more than half of our efforts focus on various + aspects relating to device support. + </p> + <p> + Most parts of the operating system (from low kernel, + through to libraries, all the way up to X, and then + even to applications) use fairly obvious interface + layers, where the "communication protocols" or + "argument passing" mechanisms (ie. APIs) can be + understood by any developer who takes the time to + read the free code. Device drivers pose an additional + and significant challenge though: because many + vendors refuse to document the exact behavior of + their devices. The devices are black boxes. And + often they are surprisingly weird, or even buggy. + </p> + <p> + When vendor documentation does not exist, the + development process can become extremely hairy. + Groups of developers have found themselves focused + for months at a time, figuring out the most simple + steps, simply because the hardware is a complete + mystery. Access to documentation can ease these + difficulties rapidly. However, getting access to + the chip documentation from vendors is ... almost + always a negotiation. If we had open access to + documentation, anyone would be able to see how + simple all these devices actually are, and device + driver development would flourish (and not just in + OpenBSD, either). + </p> + <p> + When we proceed into negotiations with vendors, + asking for documentation, our position is often + weak. One would assume that the modern market is + fair, and that selling chips would be the primary + focus of these vendors. But unfortunately a number + of behemoth software vendors have spent the last + 10 or 20 years building <a + href="http://www.openbsd.org/papers/brhard2007/mgp00024.html">political + hurdles against the smaller players</a>. + </p> + <p> + A particularly nasty player in this regard has been + the Linux vendors and some Linux developers, who + have played along with an American corporate model + of requiring NDAs for chip documentation. This has + effectively put Linux into the club with Microsoft, + but has left all the other operating system communities + -- and their developers -- with much less available + clout for requesting documentation. In a more fair + world, the Linux vendors would work with us, and + the device driver support in all free operating + systems would be fantastic by now. + </p> + <p> + We only ask that <a + href="http://www.openbsd.org/papers/brhard2007/mgp00027.html">users + help</a> us in changing the political landscape. + </p> + ]]> + </desc> + <overview>http://www.openbsd.org/lyrics.html#41</overview>; + <tags>openbsd,artwork</tags> + <files> + <prefix>ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/songs/</prefix>; + <file> + <url>song41.mp3</url> + <size>4.1 Mb</size> + <length>4 minutes 19 seconds</length> + <desc>MP3 version</desc> + <tags>mp3</tags> + </file> + <file> + <url>song41.ogg</url> + <size>8.3 Mb</size> + <length>4 minutes 19 seconds</length> + <desc>OGG version</desc> + <tags>ogg</tags> + </file> + </files> + </item> + <item source="openbsd" added="20061010"> <title>OpenBSD 4.0 Release Song - Humppa negala</title> <desc><![CDATA[ @@ -2688,6 +2902,7 @@ </files> </item> + <!-- Source: EuroBSDCon --> <item source="eurobsdcon" added="20061114"> @@ -2786,6 +3001,74 @@ </files> </item> + <!-- Source: Linux and FreeBSD video tutorials.
