First, I want to tell you how exactly I got to this point and why I started researching different options for handling asynchronous I/O on Linux… Last year, my students and I built a reverse proxy server called TinyGate. It was super simple, worker-based, and it basically worked well. Of course, I didn’t expect it to be very fast, but it was an educational project, and since we’d made a real, kind of production-ready tool, I was really proud of it. But my students weren’t as happy as I was - ... Read more ›

Recently I have worked on cases where it is observed that data sync fails with deadlock error. Error: Database re-provisioning failed with the exception 'Transaction (Process ID ##) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction. To investigate deadlocks, you can enable Extended Events by following the guidance provided here: A Sample deadlock graph looks below: Running the Data Sync Health Checker report also results in...

The most serious issue we fixed is an upstream memory corruption bug in the Broadcom Wi-Fi driver memory corruption bug for the Pixel 10, 10 Pro, 10 Pro XL and 10 Pro Fold. The invalid memory access is caught by our use of hardware memory tagging which causes a kernel panic instead of allowing it. Read more ›
Performance bottlenecks in widely used genomics and bioinformatics software present a substantial and growing burden as biological datasets continue to increase in size and number. Relieving these bottlenecks relies largely on expert manual optimization and therefore remains difficult to scale. Here we present AutoZyme, an agentic framework for scientific software optimization. Given a target function, AutoZyme builds benchmarks, identifies bottlenecks, and iteratively tests code changes, ret... Read more ›

Side-channel vulnerabilities, particularly timing and access-pattern-based attacks, have become critical issues for confidential data processing in trusted environments. Oblivious programming is an effective approach to alleviate these attacks by making program execution not leak any secret through execution time and data access traces. To facilitate oblivious programming in practice, we propose a compilation-time checking tool, obliv-clang, whi... Read more ›
