What is Strict Aliasing and Why do we Care?

What is the Strict Aliasing Rule and Why do we care?

(OR Type Punning, Undefined Behavior and Alignment, Oh My!)

What is strict aliasing? First we will describe what is aliasing and then we can learn what being strict about it means.

In C and C++ aliasing has to do with what expression types we are allowed to access stored values through. In both C and C++ the standard specifies which expression types are allowed to alias which types. The compiler and optimizer are allowed to assume we follow the aliasing rules strictly, hence the term strict aliasing rule. If we attempt to access a value using a type not allowed it is classified as undefined behavior(UB). Once we have undefined behavior all bets are off, the results of our program are no longer reliable.

Unfortunately with strict aliasing violations, we will often obtain the results we expect, leaving the possibility the a future version of a compiler with a new optimization will break code we th

Resource Allocation in Docker

#Container Resource Allocation Options in docker-run

now see: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#runtime-constraints-on-resources

You have various options for controlling resources (cpu, memory, disk) in docker. These are principally via the docker-run command options.

##Dynamic CPU Allocation -c, --cpu-shares=0
CPU shares (relative weight, specify some numeric value which is used to allocate relative cpu share)
