October was pretty quiet. This status may seem a bit more random.

I spent more time learning llvm's compiler toolchain, focusing specifically on llvm-readobj. For those following along, here's FreeBSD's exp-run of enabling WITH_LLVM_TOOLCHAIN in base: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=258872

I followed a few FreeBSD commits that affected HardenedBSD. Some of those commits deal with the signal trampoline code. Please let me know if you experience any oddities around signal delivery.

I've ordered a second ThunderX server for better arm64 support. The two SoftIron OverDrive 1000 systems the HardenedBSD Project has just don't deliver enough performance for doing operating systems development on.

Though it's not a part of the HardenedBSD project per se, I wrote a living article on my setup at home. Included are how I use HardenedBSD in several capacities, one being a PiHole alternative. I normally wouldn't include things of a personal nature in a HardenedBSD status update, but this article provides a decent peek into HardenedBSD's infrastructure.
