sched_ext is a Linux kernel feature which enables implementing kernel thread schedulers in BPF and dynamically loading them. This repository contains various scheduler implementations and support utilities.
bpftune aims to provide lightweight, always-on auto-tuning of system behaviour. The key benefit it provides are
- by using BPF observability features, we can continuously monitor and adjust system behaviour.
- because we can observe system behaviour at a fine grain (rather than using coarse system-wide stats), we can tune at a finer grain too (individual socket policies, individual device policies etc).

Linpmem is a linux memory acquisition tool. Linpmem is a Linux x64-only tool for reading physical memory.
Like its Windows counterpart, Winpmem, this is not a traditional memory dumper. Linpmem offers an API for reading from any physical address, including reserved memory and memory holes, but it can also be used for normal memory dumping. Furthermore, the driver offers a variety of access modes to read physical memory, such as byte, word, dword, qword, and buffer access mode, where buffer access mode is appropriate in most standard cases. If reading requires an aligned byte/word/dword/qword read, Linpmem will do precisely that.

EasyOS was born in January 2017, and since then there have been bits and pieces written here and there about how and why it is different from other Linux distributions. This includes some rather technical descriptions. What is needed is a simple plain-English list, so that anyone can get a quick idea of what EasyOS is all about.
EasyOS is designed from scratch to support containers. Any app can run in a container, in fact an entire desktop can run in a container. Container management is by a simple GUI, no messing around on the commandline. The container mechanism is named Easy Containers, and is designed from scratch (Docker, LXC, etc are not used).
