Arch Linux: Recent news updates
mkinitcpio hook migration and early microcode

With the release of mkinitcpio v38, several hooks previously provided by Arch packages have been moved to the mkinitcpio upstream project. The hooks are: systemd, udev, encrypt, sd-encrypt, lvm2 and mdadm_udev.

To ensure no breakage of users' setup occurs, temporary conflicts have been introduced into the respective packages to prevent installing packages that are no longer compatible.

The following packages needs to be upgraded together:

● mkinitcpio 38-2
● systemd 255.4-2
● lvm2 2.03.23-3
● mdadm 4.3-2
● cryptsetup 2.7.0-3

Please note that the mkinitcpio flag --microcode, and the microcode option in the preset files, has been deprecated in favour of a new microcode hook. This also allows you to drop the microcode initrd lines from your boot configuration as they are now packed together with the main initramfs image.

When I was young, science fiction was the genre of choice for many engineers and scientists. But the genre declined significantly in recent years. Part of the problem is the rise dystopian fiction. In the imagined future, we are no longer conquering space…

SCC 23 回顾

四年前的我怎么也不会想到，2023 年我还会来到丹佛熟悉的会场参与一次 SCC。回国已经一周有余，我在回想这一周的异国生活时，还是偶尔会混入四年前的记忆片段。从各种意义来上来说，这四年过得就像做梦一般，世界经历了巨大的停止和割裂。但当地球再次恢复转动，跨过大洋的我发现，很多东西又都没有变，比如 Colorado Convention Center 门口的那只大蓝熊。 缘由 在经历了 SC’20、SC’21 的两年线上比赛，和 SC’22 在 proposal 阶段的铩羽而归后，清华大学超算队重又回到了 SC’23…
