Explanation of the command:

* -i: This specifies the input file. In that case, it is (input.mp4).

* -ss: Used with -i, this seeks in the input file (input.mp4) to position.

* 00:01:00: This is the time your trimmed video will start with.

* -to: This specifies duration from start (00:01:40) to end (00:02:12).

* 00:02:00: This is the time your trimmed video will end with.

* -c copy: This is an option to trim via stream copy. (NB: Very fast)

h2. Fix Chrome Display Glitches

Somewhere around Chrome 86 display glitches started happening on wake. Here is how to fix:

Enabling @enable-vulkan@ in @chrome://flags@ then restarting the browser fixed it. If that does not work, you can also try enabling `ignore-gpu-blacklist` as well.

h2. Setup SSH Public Key

# On host machine generate a key pair. This key can be reused for multiple remote machines so it's not really necessary to change the name unless multiple keys are generated, which is also not really needed.

<pre>

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa

</pre>

 *NOTE:* for NetBeans to use/recognize the ssh key you must use the old PEM format:

<pre>

$ ssh-keygen -m PEM -t rsa

</pre>

# Now use `ssh-copy-id` to copy the key to the remote machine (for example):

<pre>

$ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/phalanx_rsa.pub dsorber@phalanx

</pre>

$ bbe -e 's/\x0a\x0d\x0a/\x0d\x0a/' infile > outfile

</pre>

* binwalk - https://github.com/ReFirmLabs/binwalk

 binwalk can search for hex strings (and do many other things)

<pre>

$ binwalk -R "\x0a\x0d\x0a" infile

WARNING: Signature '0    string    \x0a\x0d\x0a    Raw signature (\x0a\x0d\x0a)' is a self-overlapping signature!

h2. Useful IPMI commands

Power measurement on the SuperMicro (probably won't work on Dell chassis as they have some proprietary version of ipmi):

<pre>

sudo ipmitool -U ADMIN -P ADMIN -H 10.17.136.108 dcmi power reading

</pre>

Check power status (i.e. on/off) of chassis:

<pre>

sudo ipmitool -U ADMIN -P ADMIN -H 10.17.70.45 power status

sudo ipmitool -U ADMIN -P ADMIN -H 10.17.70.45 power off

</pre>

Get IPMI IP address (look for "IP Address"):

<pre>

sudo ipmitool lan print 

</pre>

h2. Restart Cinnamon from TTY

# Cinnamon freezes

# Switch tty. I usually go to tty6, `Ctrl+Alt+F6`

# If you need to login first, do so.

# Type `w` (yes, just the letter) and press enter. This commands does a lot of different things, but you need it to figure out the number of the display you are using. The display number is in the column FROM. Mine is `:0` (yes, including the colon).

# Assuming that cinnamon is already dead (which you would notice by the windows lacking titles and that you can't move different windows around, and perhaps even not being able to use the keyboard), you type `export DISPLAY=:0; cinnamon &`, and don't forget the colon. I add the ampersand (&) only not to keep that tty busy.

h2. cpufrequtils Governor Configuration

These instructions are intended for Ubuntu 16.04 and later (using systemd init).

* Check the available and currently set governors. Ubuntu has an “ondemand” service that sets the governor to ondemand after boot.

<pre>

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors

conservative ondemand userspace powersave performance schedutil

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor 

ondemand

</pre>

* Configure cpufrequtils to set the governor to performance at boot

<pre>

$ echo 'GOVERNOR="performance"' | sudo tee /etc/default/cpufrequtils

GOVERNOR="performance"

</pre>

* Disable the automatic ondemand service. 

<pre>

$ sudo systemctl disable ondemand

</pre>

* Reboot.

* Now check that the governor is set to performance for every CPU:

<pre>

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

performance

performance

performance

performance

…

performance

performance

performance

</pre>

* Check current CPU speeds:

<pre>

$ watch -n 1 bash -c 'cpufreq-info | grep "current CPU frequency"'

h2. Read Performance using AIO

Use this fio command (run from temp directory on disk in question) to measure max disk read performance:

<pre>

$ fio --name TEST --eta-newline=5s --filename=fio-tempfile.dat --rw=read --size=10g --io_size=10g --blocksize=512k --ioengine=libaio --fsync=0 --iodepth=32 --direct=1 --numjobs=1 --runtime=300 --group_reporting

This is handy as it saves on disk space.

<pre>

$ tar --remove-files -cf pictures.tar Pictures/

h2. Linux Find and Remove Files

Find and remove files (even with spaces in the path) using case insensitive matching for the wildcard:

<pre>

$ find . -type f -iname "*.jpg" -print0 | xargs -0 rm

h2. Hex Editor

I had been using [[https://hexinator.com/|Hexinator]] but I've had some minor issues with it. Today I tried [[https://www.wxhexeditor.org/home.php|wxHexEditor]] and I was pleasantly surprised.

Download from here: https://github.com/EUA/wxHexEditor

You'll need the latest version of libwxgtk<version>-dev package.

I had some minor issues with the build (which seems a somewhat bizarre arrangement...) modify the makefile to set `CC` and `CXX` directly, right about line 90.

Finally, to get it installed in the right place:

<pre>

sudo make install DESTDIR=/opt/local BINDIR=bin DATADIR=share

</pre>

h2. Preprocessor Fun

To invoke the preprocessor directly:

<pre>

gcc -E -DSOME_DEFINE=SOME_VALUE somefile.c 

</pre>

See also [[https://linux.die.net/man/1/unifdef|unifdef]]: "The unifdef utility acts on #if, #ifdef, #ifndef, #elif, #else, and #endif lines, and it understands only the commonly-used subset of the expression syntax for #if and #elif lines."

h2. Convert Oversampled .flac to 16 bit 44.1 khz .flac

</pre>

h2. Command line convert .png to .jpg

<pre>

$ for x in *.png; do convert $x $(basename $x .png).jpg; done

</pre>

You can also add the "`-quality 90`" option if needed.

h2. Determine CPU Family Name

<pre>

$ gcc -march=native -Q --help=target|grep march

</pre>

h2. Convert .flac to .m4a (AAC)

Requires `ffmpeg` built with libfdk_aac:

<pre>

$ /opt/bin/ffmpeg -i input.flac -vn -c:a libfdk_aac -vbr 3 output.m4a

</pre>

All together using `find` and `parallel` for magic:

<pre>

$ find . -type f -name "*.flac" | parallel -j16 "/opt/bin/ffmpeg -i {} -vn -c:a libfdk_aac -vbr 4 {/.}.m4a"

</pre>

h2. PyGObject

This is the magic needed to have stuff happen quasi asynchronously using PyGObject (GTK+):

<pre>

# Yield to the main loop temporarily

* From: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/56879/tracking-down-missing-memory-usage-in-linux

  The "memory used by a process" is not a clear cut concept in modern operating systems. What can be measured is the size of the address space of the process (SIZE) and resident set size (RSS, how many of the pages in the address space are currently in memory). Part of RSS is shared (most processes in memory share one copy of glibc, and so for assorted other shared libraries; several processes running the same executable share it, processes forked share read-only data and possibly a chunk of not-yet-modified read-write data with the parent). On the other hand, memory used for the process by the kernel isn't accounted for, like page tables, kernel buffers, and kernel stack. In the overall picture you have to account for the memory reserved for the graphics card, the kernel's use, and assorted "holes" reserved for DOS and other prehistoric systems (that isn't much, anyway).

  The only way of getting an overall picture is what the kernel reports as such. Adding up numbers with unknown overlaps and unknown left outs is a nice exercise in arithmetic, nothing more.

h2. Reinstall grub on UEFI System

Reinstalling grub on a UEFI system is slightly different than on a traditional legacy BIOS system:

<pre>

# Mount the primary drive root partition and the boot EFI partition

sudo mount /dev/sda# /mnt            # Mount root (/) partition

sudo mount /dev/sda# /mnt/boot       # Mount boot (/boot) partition (if separate from root partition; typically not)

sudo mkdir -p /mnt/boot/efi          # Create EFI partition mount point

sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi   # Mount EFI partition

# Mount your virtual filesystems:

for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done

# Chroot

sudo chroot /mnt

</pre>

Now, if you have networking you'll need DNS. If using `resolvconf` (for recent versions of Ubuntu):

# Edit ` /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head` and add the following line (OpenDNS server).  Then save and exit:

<pre>

add nameserver 208.67.222.222

</pre>

# Next enable updates and update:

<pre>

sudo resolvconf --enable-updates

sudo resolvconf -u

</pre>

# Now you should have DNS. Test by pinging something.

Finally, back to fixing grub. Note that the grub install should run smoothly with no errors or warnings. If you see any something is probably wrong.

<pre>

apt-get install grub-efi-amd64  # Install grub EFI bootloader (this should be all you need to do)

# manual steps if you need them for some reason

grub-install --recheck --no-floppy --force /dev/sda1  # Install grub bootloader in EFI partition

#####

echo "configfile (hd0,gpt#)/boot/grub.cfg" > /boot/efi/ubuntu/grub.cfg # Tell grub to load grub.cfg from /boot

update-grub                          # Create grub menu list

#####

exit                                 # Exit chroot

</pre>

Reboot and you should be back in business.

the values, silently re-download the Windows 10 installation files (about 6 GB in total), and

                                      shell=True, stdout=void, stderr=void))

except Exception as e:

    exc_type, exc_value, exc_traceback = sys.exc_info()

    print('\n')

    traceback.print_exception(exc_type, exc_value, exc_traceback)

    print('\n')

</pre>

h2. Generating Random Data Files for Testing

One approach is to use /dev/urandom (non-blocking pseudorandom device):

<pre>

$ dd if=/dev/urandom bs=32M count=32 of=data_1GB.bin

</pre>

Unfortunately /dev/urandom is a bit slow. However, you can alternatively use openssl to generate pseudorandom numbers a bit faster:

<pre>

 $ openssl rand 1073741824 > data_1GB.bin

 $ for run in {1..30}; do echo $run; openssl rand 1073741824 >> data_30GB.bin; done

</pre>

h2. Cloning HDDs

When configuring multiple chassis it is necessary to clone an HDD. There are all sorts of disk imaging tools out there but it's hard to beat the trusty dd command. The pv (pipe viewer) portion isn't strictly necessary but it prints out a very useful textual status bar. The back ticked blockdev command reports the size of the drive in bytes, which pv then uses to determine overall progress. The bs argument to dd should correspond to the cache size of the drive for optimum performance (32MB is a sane default for most drives these days).

To clone a single drive to another identical drive (assuming sda is the source and sdb is the destination):

<pre>

 $ sudo dd if=/dev/sda bs=32M | pv -s `sudo blockdev --getsize64 /dev/sda` | sudo dd of=/dev/sdb bs=32M

</pre>

To clone to multiple drives all at once (assuming sda is the source and sdb, sdc are destinations):

<pre>

 $ sudo dd if=/dev/sda bs=32M | pv -s `sudo blockdev --getsize64 /dev/sda` | tee >(sudo dd of=/dev/sdb bs=32M) | sudo dd of=/dev/sdc bs=32M

</pre>

It is entirely possible to clone more drives by adding additional `>(sudo dd of=/dev/sdX bs=32M)` arguments to the tee command. Note that tee outputs to stdout so it is necessary to pipe the output of tee to the final dd command as shown above. If you don't do this then tee will spew the raw contents of the source HDD to your screen, which will make the clone take forever and look especially ugly!

For some reason RedHat/CentOS do not have the pv command or even a package for it in their repos!!! Therefore, boot from a Debian-based OS in order to clone.

h2. Generating ISOs

<pre>

 $ genisoimage -R -J -o <output.iso> <some directory>
