I just updated 8 libraries I maintain to run on PHP 8.5.

Public #libraries should have datasheets, reference manuals and schematics. Would be great for #rightToRepair and keeping #knowledge in general - a library's main purpose.

Some tips for debugging #Windows applications that do not start:
1. Run them via #wine. It can give you a useful error message (such as "this library is missing this symbol" rather than completely useless generic error code).
2. Wine has winedump tool that can be used to get information from DLLs and static libraries.
3. https://github.com/lucasg/Dependencies is a good replacement for Dependency Walker that runs on Wine.

Another post on #Quansight PBC blog: "BLAS/LAPACK #packaging"
#BLAS and #LAPACK are the standard libraries for linear algebra. The original implementation, often called Netlib LAPACK, developed since the 1980s, nowadays serves primarily as the origin of the standard interface, the reference implementation and a conformance test suite. The end users usually use optimized implementations of the same interfaces. The choice ranges from generically tuned libraries such as OpenBLAS and BLIS, through libraries focused on specific hardware such as Intel® oneMKL, Arm Performance Libraries or the Accelerate framework on macOS, to ATLAS that aims to automatically optimize for a specific system.
The diversity of available libraries, developed in parallel with the standard interfaces, along with vendor-specific extensions and further downstream changes, adds quite a bit of complexity around using these libraries in software, and distributing such software afterwards. This problem entangles implementation authors, consumer software authors, build system maintainers and distribution maintainers. Software authors generally wish to distribute their packages built against a generically optimized BLAS/LAPACK implementation. Advanced users often wish to be able to use a different implementation, more suited to their particular needs. Distributions wish to be able to consistently build software against their system libraries, and ideally provide users the ability to switch between different implementations. Then, build systems need to provide the scaffolding for all of that.
I have recently taken up the work to provide such a scaffolding for the Meson build system; to add support for BLAS and LAPACK dependencies to Meson. While working on it, I had to learn a lot about BLAS/LAPACK packaging: not only how the different implementations differ from one another, but also what is changed by their respective downstream packaging. In this blog post, I would like to organize and share what I have learned.

Recently, a new class of tools, called speculative constant-time (SCT) tools, has also been used for detecting potential Spectre vulnerabilities.

However, the process is fundamentally limited by the "identification bottleneck," where only a small fraction of detected features can be annotated using existing spectral libraries, leaving the majority of data uncharacterized and unused. In addition, the inherently low reproducibility of LC-MS/MS instruments introduces alignment errors between runs, making featu…

The use of intrinsic functions to exploit hardware-specific capabilities is an important approach for optimizing library performance. Many mainstream libraries implement a large number of vectorized algorithms on Arm or x86 SIMD intrinsic functions. With the rapid expansion of the RISC-V hardware-software ecosystem, there is a growing demand for support of the RISC-V Vector (RVV) extension. Translating existing vectorized intrinsic code onto RVV intrinsics is a practical and effective approach.…
