| Keybuk | sadmac2: yeah, I'd thought of having a big table for lookups of nih_alloc contexts | 13:38 |
|---|---|---|
| Keybuk | one advantage to that would be the big table could be "pointer" referenced | 13:38 |
| Keybuk | so nih_alloc could adopt pointers allocated without it | 13:38 |
| Keybuk | jMCg: in fact, you hit the nail right on the head | 13:39 |
| Keybuk | the reason that Upstart doesn't (right now) have "run as user" support is because I want to do something a little more different and clever using capabilities and cgroups | 13:39 |
| Keybuk | the "run as user" feature will actually run things in a full PAM session for that user (as if they logged in and ran it) | 13:39 |
| Keybuk | whereas the "non-root service" feature will be much more useful | 13:39 |
| jMCg | Keybuk: that's very cool -- is there an ETA for that? Or anything I can help with (or code I can steal from you, to use for my long due port of mod_privileges to Linux)? | 13:44 |
| Keybuk | jMCg: sometime in the next 18 months | 13:57 |

| sadmac2 | Keybuk: are you getting to reading the triggers thing I posted on upstart-devel? | 15:58 |
| sadmac2 | Keybuk: I'm sure you're still swamped :) its just taking a lot of code to implement, and I'd hate to do all of it just to have you slap it down :) | 15:59 |
| sadmac2 | With luck it will at least give us something to talk about in Portland | 15:59 |
| Keybuk | sadmac2: I haven't read it yet | 16:00 |
| Keybuk | I'll try and read through it later today :) | 16:00 |
| sadmac2 | cool :) | 16:00 |

| pquerna | hi, i have a question about upstart... does anyone use it more like.. DJB's Daemontools for managing a small set of services? (not the whole os...) | 21:53 |
| sadmac2 | pquerna: upstart doesn't like not being pid 1 unless you compile it specially | 21:54 |
| pquerna | yeah, I'm just looking for something somewhat more.. modern to replace daemontools. upstart seems like the coolest kid on the block though. | 21:54 |
| pquerna | $new_job uses a series of shell scripts spawning things into screen instances.... not exactly what i'd like to use forever :) | 21:56 |
