im 99% sure this is either (a) bogus (this isn't an inherent limitation of any of the UNIX timing APIs that coreutils timeout can use – timer_create, setitimer, alarm – they're all deltas from Now, sure, but the limit lands elsewhere),
Replying to @nabijaczleweli
or (b) idiotic because this is not remotely the place for this sort of note (and the platforms in question, if they at all exist, use i32s as the global time du jour, meaning this is a systematic problem, not that of timeout)
Replying to @mycoliza
the most reliable (defined as "widely-supported") API is alarm(2), which takes an (unsigned) int, from Now; coreutils doesn't support int=i16/long=i32 platforms (i don't think anyone has since SysIII and 3BSD, it's A Special Hell™); either way – relatively unlikely?
Replying to @mycoliza
lmaooo this is the origin of the message: it *is* an obscure variant of UNIX and i think it qualifies as (b): Linux/HPPA (!?), reported 2012(!), overflows a kernel-side i32
Replying to @mycoliza
i don't have PA-RISC hardware (and who knows how well qemu would emulate this), but considering it's in mainline since pre-git and still sees updates, it's 2020, and an explicit 2038-conscious timer patch touched it in 2019 (apparently?), I'd be, uh, surprised if it still held?

the best bootloader installation experience ive had in years (i was gonna go with sd-boot to actually verify that klapki Just Worked but i forgot the insane magic you had to do to get sd-boot to actually install, and, well it did Just Work)
Replying to @nabijaczleweli
am i shining my proverbial boots here? yes. but IME EFI bootloaders are either fussy (sd-boot), dumb (incl. this includes "too smart for their own good") (grub), insane, or all three.
none of them rival apt install klapki -> Yes on "Add all kernels?" -> C-A-D -> It Comes Up
Replying to @nabijaczleweli
my secret? https://git.sr.ht/~nabijaczleweli/klapki – it's not a boot-loader, because you don't need (or want, usually!) a boot-loader
Replying to @nabijaczleweli
that being said, falling over to EFI is an Experience™ with hard-minimum three-minute boot times and no EFI shell (in the firmware or otherwise, running the EDK2 shell binary just seemed to loop forever and not do anything)
Replying to @nabijaczleweli
also, it's wild to me that this system has EFI (of course) and a TPM (1.x) but does NOT have SecureBoot. debian-installer, which loads grub through shim, printed some sort of error that contained a *_mok_*()/ENOTSUP error message before the GRUB early init, and there's no config

what exactly is the point of an in-platform KVM when the video mode can somehow be intransmissible
Replying to @nabijaczleweli
so, uh, updated to 5.10.0-9-amd64, and (a) there's MokListXRT{1..113}-605dab50-e046-4300-abb6-3dd810dd8b23 variables that return EINVAL on unlink (??), and/so(?) (b) literally any write(2) under /sys/firmware/efi/efivars returns ENOSPC, including, like the boot order
Replying to @nabijaczleweli
plus, (c) I've lost 1.6G of RAM (94.4, but the full 96 under BIOS boot, is there really 1.6G reserved for runtime services!?), and (d) under EFI, kexecing destroys the platform /so severely/, that the iDRAC goes down too. no packets. the /only/ control is 4s of power button
Replying to @leftpaddotpy
i had keylocation=file:///root/key set for the root dataset, which meant that the / mount unit transitively depended on /root being mounted (to load the key), which, trivially, requires / to be mounted, which you can see the problem. I moved the key file to the root dataset
Replying to @nabijaczleweli
so, EFI on the R710: no. just not usable. that's discounting the square fucking two-plus (sometimes five!) minutes spent on UEFI init, /after/ the already-lengthy boot.

fun fact: in very early unix, the kernel actually, literally, forked pid 1 off pid 0 (kernel), so for a short bit before it execs init, userspace does actually share a stack (well, the whole kernel (well, a copy of the whole kernel, this is pre-virtual-memory, but point stands))
