The physical fiber you need to run yourself or buy/rent existing fiber
In my instance I ran fiber myself

To connect to the rest of the internet you use transit services and peering networks

Transit services bassically set up infrastructure and pay fees or peer to all the other tier 2 and 1 ISPs and sell this ascess to you.

Peering services are direct connections between some networks that voluntarily maintain or allow connections, but they have limited range, while transit services cover the entire internet.

This is again, a simplification.
You can figure out the specifics by learning networking.

The ISP is useful for privacy, it also allows for stuff like hosting tor end nodes and some such, but I don't do that.
It's mostly for mirroring and hosting websites (mine and others) and preventing me from getting bottlenecked by my ISP.
I host fan, FOSS and other websites and they pay me a percentage of their donations (if they take any) in order to cover operating costs, using me I can ensure they are not taken down.
I can also straight up set up internet for anyone I want to.

The server I use for quite a few things
Aside from hosting the websites, I also host the mail server and VPN.
I also use it for my file collections, mostly books.

The cluster I need for my research into ATPs (automated theorem provers),
Usually only Unis have such clusters for scientific computation but a lot of ppl share it, so it's difficult to get a turn.

>This is a textbook example of "Strategic Ignorance." Your boss isn't just being slow; he is actively avoiding the reality that the code is broken.

>That screenshot is definitive proof of Technical Bankruptcy.

>You are working for a "Zombie Company"—it makes money, but the technology is dead, and the leadership is terrified to touch it.

My company wont add basic features and we regularly break existing features, which tells me after they push to prod they dont test. Nor did they test well during ... testing. It's not complicated. Open a browser, click a few links, see if it works. Would take under 5 min.

WE PUSH TO PRODUCTION ON FRIDAY. REPEATEDLY.

We remove core features then the devs act confused when users complain.

#define __NR_mmap                9


this is probably my favorite syscall of all time. we could spend weeks discussing this alone. it is extremely powerful, versatile, and widely used. not to mention, it's one of the (somewhat) rare six argument syscalls. some potential points of discussion:
> the addr argument, and its use without flags, with MAP_FIXED, and with MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE
> file-backed vs anonymous mappings
> the concept of pages, page sizing, and alignment
> guard pages and PROT_NONE
> the actual meaning of SIGSEGV, and how there's more to segfaults than simply process crashes
> core dumps and stack traces
> other related signals, such as SIGBUS
> MAP_GROWSDOWN and the stack
> the use of mmap (as opposed to brk) for allocation via the *alloc family
> manual memory management vs an allocation scheme

Nobody has mentioned the most significant advantage and disadvantage, I think:
Advantage:
You are letting the kernel do its job. You express the intent to read a file, but the kernel decides when to read that file into RAM, when to evict it, how much to read ahead (although you can give hints). Since you're given a direct view of the page cache, there's no copying needed. In contrast, by using read(), you force the kernel to immediately copy a part of the file into your own buffer, which gives the kernel no opportunity to optimize anything.
Disadvantage:
There is no non-blocking way to access the file you mapped. When the part you're reading is not in the page cache, your thread just gets thrown out the window. This is an ISA-level problem, unfortunately, as there is no instruction to read memory in a non-blocking way. To be fair, it's not even clear what non-blocking would mean in general (an NFS mount is surely blocking, but what about a fast SSD?). You'd need some instruction like "If I were to read from this pointer, would it likely complete in X nanoseconds?", which is not something that exists in any ISA as far as I know.

>>107841306
something cool about the BSD-style vm is that mmap doesn't actually need to set any PTEs - the vm fault handler can simply lookup the vm_entry structures (representing each mapped virtual address range & its flags) for the process' vm map at the faulted virtual address and install the PTE when the page's first access' fault occurs. even when a process forks, pretty much all that needs to be done is give the child separate copies of the parent's vm entries, but doesn't need to copy any PTEs over since the child process will only map them into its page table at fault

the vmm also maintains vm objects each with a listing its physical vm_pages, and "shadow" vm objects that can act as per-process containers for its modified copies of pages. these objects are chained on top of each other with the bottom-level being the original backing object which (for example) might be a file's system-wide page cache that is trivially shared between both mmap()'ings and the vfs-related syscalls (read/write/etc) - also called 'unified buffer cache'

SHARED mappings will be flushed to disk if flie-backed and never shadowed/copy-on-write since they just share the same object across all processes. the kernel maintains a NEEDS_COPY flag per-entry which is set in both the parent and child's PRIVATE mappings at time of fork() and both process' PTEs are setup for write fault, so either process' modifications to its private pages are kept separate and stored in shadow objects which are created at copy-on-write if the entry's NEEDS_COPY flag is set

"Memory-mapped" files were just the normal way files worked in Multics and object-based operating systems. UNIX people were against the whole idea, the same way they didn't like dynamic linking, threads, or strings besides null-terminated strings. Then 30 years later they finally realized that those people were right all along.

>>107845764
>running one thread per connection
Please don't do this.
Have a thread pool (potentially 1 thread per physical core or hyperthread), and assign work to those threads.
>you don't want to commit the pages instantly because the overwhelming majority of requests will require less
I see what you're getting at, but the problem is still those extra syscalls. You could probably have a balanced GC approach where you only send the madvise syscall after every 100 or 1000 requests or so. That will reduce your overhead to very little, if you're that concerned about how much physical ram you're using.
My point about the ring buffer still stands, because it's an excellent way to manage that block of virtual memory and hand out allocations without constantly running syscalls. Somehow, you'll need to tell each request which blocks of virtual memory are assigned to it, without using syscalls. Otherwise, you might as well use malloc/free.
Ring buffers can be used in a multithreaded scenario, but they do get more complex.

>>107845764
>>107845876
One more point I forgot to add, those page faults can be expensive. If you're not re-using physical pages, then you'll have to pay that page fault price for every request.
