Also, use the following flags for full GPU acceleration:

Run an application with dbus and wayland sockets in a rootless podman container
# Install docker or podman package on your distro (podman doesn't need a daemon like dockerd to work). All args are exactly same, just replace ``podman`` with ``docker`` in command if you want to.
sudo pacman -S podman

Firefox about:config privacy and performance configuration snippets.

ABOUT

about:config settings to harden the Firefox browser. Privacy and performance enhancements.
You can use this settings in Tor browser too.
To change these settings type 'about:config' in the url bar. Then search the setting you would like to change and modify the value. Some settings may break certain websites from functioning and rendering normally. Some settings may also make firefox unstable.

I am not liable for any damages/loss of data.

Not all these changes are necessary and will be dependent upon your usage and hardware. Do some research on settings if you don't understand what they do. These settings are best combined with your standard privacy extensions

Read shell options with positional arguments

This example shows how to read options and positional arguments from a bash script (same principle can be applied for other shells).

# some global var we want to overwrite with options
force=false
help=false
log=info
ARGS=() ### this array holds any positional arguments, i.e., arguments not started with dash

while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do

Tracing QEMU-KVM Interactions

Tracing QEMU-KVM Interactions

But default in linux you can figure out how many times and for what reasons there is a VM Exit from a VM into the kvm kernel module. However given the ubiquity of vhost and the ability of kvm to emulate most device models directly in the kernel, most of those VM exits do not result in a transition from host kernel into the QEMU. The transitions from VM -> kvm -> QEMU are typically the most expensive.

Here we try to figure out how many of the VM Exits result in the invocation of QEMU.

Tracking VM-KVM Interactions

This can be done very simply with perf
