 Hello. Welcome to this session. This is a little bit unusual. I thought I'd be at the conference. Then everyone was told it's going to be from home. And then when I was prepared to do a conference session from home, I got a call from my father that he needed me there. So I'm actually doing this talk from my childhood bedroom, which is kind of unusual. But it's a good room actually related. This is where I met my first computer and it's still around. So this is where I have my current computer and my first computer together for the first time in a long time. I guess most people who are interested should be in by now. So we can get started. This talk is obviously going to be about tool chains and cross compilers and what has changed. Because not everything is the same. It used to be some 20 years ago. So the current situation when it comes down to tool chains, cross compilers and everything is that there's one really well-known, well-documented, slightly complicated way to build it all. Which is, of course, get binutils, get GCC, get G-Lipsy, build them all in the right order and build them again to get all the features. We'll get back to that in a bit. And there's also a couple of alternatives, but not a lot of people are aware of them or not a lot of people have used them. They're certainly not as widely known as the traditional way. And we're going to take a look at what those alternatives are, where it makes sense to use them and where it makes sense to stay with the traditional way of doing things. So the best known way is obviously to grab binutils, then GCC, build a minimal GCC compiler for your target platform that has only seen nose reds, probably no support for shared libraries. Then you build G-Lipsy. And then when you are done with that, you build GCC again, enabling a few more features, including Libre CDC++ if you want C++ support, including threading, and all the other advanced compiler features you may need. LTO is another thing that's usually not in the first stage compiler. And of course, this approach still has some advantages. It's by far the most widespread. Most of the first third-party libraries and applications have been tested in this setup. It's what's at the core of almost every at least desktop distribution or server distribution out there. Some embedded devices have gone another way already, but most of those devices are devices where you don't actually get to look at what they're doing. And of course, along with that, comes the fact that people you are talking to on IRC mailing forms have done this and will be able to help you out with any problems there. You will probably also find people to help out with alternatives, but they may be a bit harder to find. So let's take a look at what some of the alternatives are. First, you will need a compiler, which is GCC and the traditional option. There's one compiler that is equally good, which is Clang, which comes from the LLVM suite. LLVM also has replacements for binutils, so you can skip the binutils step as well. In LLVM, before version 10, that was a bit complicated because the linker that came with it just wasn't good enough and couldn't replace LD, but in LLVM 10 that has changed, you can build pretty much everything with LLVD these days. So if you're opting for Clang, you don't really need binutils anymore. Oh, and before I forget, there is the Q&A session that you can see. In the default setup, it's under the video window. Feel free to type questions there at any time. Interrupt me when you feel like it. I can't guarantee that I'll notice it immediately, but I'll try to answer questions in a timely manner. Okay, back to the topic. Yeah, LLV has become good enough to replace binutils, so instead of compile binutils and then compile GCC, you can opt to just compile LLVM and Clang. One of the interesting things about Clang is that it's a cross compiler by design, so with GCC and a lot of other compilers, you have to build a compiler once for every target you want to support, whereas Clang can be built for any supported platform at the same time. So unless you want to, you don't build all the platforms at the same time. You don't build different compilers for all the platforms. You just build all the targets you want into one Clang compiler and then you specify clang-target with the triplets you want to support and then the same version of Clang will build the binary for whatever architecture you're targeting with the dash-target switch. Another advantage of Clang is that its code is a lot easier to get into than GCCs, so if you are interested in hacking on the compiler itself but you are not already a GCC expert, it is much easier to get started in the Clang world. So we have a question on the channel, which is better with respect to time between GCC and Clang. That is a question that is hard to answer because it kind of depends on the code you are using it on. There used to be the situation that in general Clang would be much faster at compiling things, but GCC would produce faster binaries. That has changed a bit as Clang has been adding more optimizations. It got a lot slower at compiling things, but the binaries got a lot better. So these days I'd say they are roughly the same speed, both at compiling and at running the stuff that was compiled. I hope that answers the question. If not, please post a follow-up. Okay, getting back to what Clang can do. It has a lot of targets, so does GCC, but Clang has some interesting additional things like targets for various GPUs. So that's interesting, especially if you're trying to do anything where you're trying to split workloads between the CPU and the GPU. Yeah, we already covered the next point in the question. There are special cases where one compiler will perform better. On average, the performance is similar. Clang is trying to be a drop-in replacement for GCC, so it implements a lot of GCC extensions. If you have some code that was not developed for standards in mind, that was developed only for GCC, there's a good chance it will work with Clang anyway. Not a 100% chance, but a pretty good one. Clang was initially released in 2012, so it's eight years old. That is pretty much a cause for a lot of differences we are seeing. It doesn't have to care about all the old standards and so that GCC keeps carrying around. It was built on a more modern base, but it also has to catch up on a couple of things GCC has been doing for almost 40 years longer. Another thing that differs between those two compilers is the license. GCC is GPL. Clang is Apache 2.0, which essentially means do whatever you like, except that you wrote it, which has both advantages and drawbacks. I personally prefer the GPL option because it makes people contribute back. But if you're doing something very specific and you just don't want to bother releasing any code, you might opt for the Apache license thing by default. But in terms of the compiler, that really shouldn't be a primary consideration. They are both open, they are both good. Pick whatever works better. Of course, there's a good chance you will need LLVM stuff anyway. It's used by Mesa and other things you will probably want on a system, unless you're building some very specific embedded device. Of course, there's also reasons why you might need GCC anyway. For example, you might want to have the best TDC++ or libGCCS. Whether or not the compiler you are opting for has all the things that you need for the system you are trying to build is another consideration that you should be looking at. One of the pieces of good news is that Clang and GCC are binary compatible. You can link a library built by one compiler to a code built with the other. You can even mix them inside the same project. So you compile one object file with GCC and another with Clang and you link them together and it will work. There's usually not much of a reason to do that. There might be some special cases. For example, if you've observed GCC optimizing one particular function a lot better and Clang optimizing another function a lot better, you might opt for a version where you compile the file that's optimized better with GCC with one compiler and you compile the other file with Clang and then link them together to get the best performance. But usually the performance differences are not big enough for that to matter. If you do want to mix compilers that way you have to use GCC support libraries so libGCC and GIT's version of the CRT object files because Clang can handle GCC's versions but if you want to use Clang's version so if you want to use compiler RT instead of libGCC with GCC it's possible but quite a bit tricky so that's something you probably want to avoid. Another alternative compiler is TinyCC which as the name already tells you is one of the smallest implementations of the full C99 compiler you can get. The compiler source itself is smaller than 4 megabytes compared to multiple hundreds of megabytes for both GCC and Clang and it takes only a few seconds to compile. I managed to compile TinyCC in less than 10 seconds on a relatively fast box but it doesn't optimize as strongly as Clang or GCC and it's also limited to C. It doesn't support any of the other languages supported by the two other compilers so no C++, no Fortran, no whatever else you might want to use but it is certainly another interesting option for small embedded devices and another interesting thing is that you can embed the compiler and essentially make it use C as a scripting language inside your application so even if you don't end up using it as the primary compiler for your project it might be worth a look depending on what you want to do. Another interesting compiler or at least another compiler that might be interesting at some point is OpenARC. So far it's vaporware but it was announced by Huawei last year. It's supposed to become a C, C++ Java, Kotlin and JavaScript compiler that generates native code and they promise it will be fully open at some point but so far they've only released a bit of code that can compile Java to ARC64 assembly and it does that by calling into a binary blob so if you're interested in Open compiler there's not much there yet but if they stick to their promise it could really become an interesting option in the future especially if you have to mix languages but right now it's not there yet so we'll have to see whether or not it goes anywhere. Another option that you will probably have if you're working with embedded devices is using a board support package that comes with the board but usually those board support packages contain a fork of a really outdated version of GCC or Clang and usually both of those compilers have in the meantime already added much better support for the hardware investment and the fork that comes with the board might have so unless you're working on a very special device that is not yet supported by the upstream compilers it's usually the best option to just ignore whatever is in the board support packages maybe pick a couple of libraries also from there but ignore the compilers and just go with the latest version of Clang or GCC sometimes that means you have to add a few kernel patches to make sure whatever outdated kernel comes with the board supports to the current tool chains but those patches are usually already written because they exist in current kernels and they tend to be easy to find so we can just look at the kernel git repository and look at the log for the file that's refusing to compile in general I think it's probably best to avoid any compiler that is not based on GCC or later or on Clang 9 or later earlier versions of those compilers are just not as good so summing it up GCC and Clang are both good options there's no clear winner TinyCC is also interesting to look at depending on what you're doing but just not that great a general purpose compiler both of the big compilers have been used to compile full systems now even including the kernel most clinics distributions that you're using on your desktop or on the server probably have been built with GCC there's a few like OpenMandreva and Android and some of the BSDs that are built mostly with Clang and in some distributions that like to build everything from source you're offered both options so both compilers have had a lot of testing with all the standard open source components so it's really hard to make a choice there Clang makes it a bit easier to add new architectures, new languages generally built as a library so it's easier to embed parts of the compiler in your own code if you want to do that if you're planning to add architectures or a new language in the front end or you want to embed the compiler somewhere chances are you'll be happier with Clang on the other hand if you're using G-Lipsy that currently can't be built with anything but GCC even though there's a couple of patches floating around we'll get back to that a bit later and if you don't need any of the extra other extras offered by Clang you may want to go with GCC for everything as well they're really both good compilers so let's look at the next component which is Lipsy which is basically the core library containing such calls as open, close and everything else that you will end up using in every application out there G-Lipsy is the default option it's what has been around forever it's the most complete Lipsy out there it's the most standard compliant version because it really tries to support all the relevant standards out there including really old ones like C89 it has had a lot of testing because it was for a long time the only option it has the most complete architecture support I'm not going to read off the entire list but if you care just look at the slides or look at the G-Lipsy code but it also has a couple of drawbacks its code is not very readable it can only be compiled with GCC so if you're opting for a different compiler you will have to use GCC for G-Lipsy anyway there is a set of patches that makes it compile with Clang but it's based on an old version of G-Lipsy which is 229 so it might be an interesting project to look at those patches and port them over to current G-Lipsy another drawback of G-Lipsy is that it's not very optimized for small systems it's rather big so roughly 4 megabytes for LDSO, Lipsy, LibM, LibP thread which are the main components you will need anyway of course if you're targeting a high-end desktop or a high-end server 4 megabytes really don't matter so that's not a big deal but if you're targeting an embedded system or a low-end desktop then you really want to save a lot of memory like if you want to get anything to work on my old friend here you probably don't want to use G-Lipsy one alternative that has come up lately is Muzzle which is interesting because it's also very complete it's fast, it's relatively small only 785 kilobytes compared to G-Lipsy's 4 megabytes it was written with C11 and POSIX 2008 compliance in mind instead of also targeting all the older standards but it does support a lot of coming news to G-Lipsy and NXNBSD extensions so most of the code you see out there will compile against Muzzle without problems it also has pretty good architecture support not quite the fullest that G-Lipsy has but pretty much all the interesting architectures are covered in terms of architecture support one really interesting thing in Muzzle is that it's the only Lipsy I've seen that supports open risk I don't know if open risk will ever really go anywhere but it's an interesting architecture and so far if you want to use that architecture you're stuck with Muzzle only another key advantage of Muzzle is that it has readable code so if you want to figure out how your Lipsy works Muzzle is probably the best option to look at G-Lipsy is rather complicated to understand so is your C-Lipsy which is the next option and Muzzle has been around since 2011 so it looks like it's there to stay which is certainly a reason to consider it another option is your C-Lipsy NG which is another relatively complete fast and small Lipsy implementation it's about one megabyte in a full config but the interesting thing in your C-Lipsy is it can be stripped down easily it has a make config target that is just like the kernels config where you get a list of all sorts of optional features optional functions that tend to be quite big you can throw them out easily by just saying this and this and this and I don't want that and then that so if you're building an embedded system and you're not using all the functionality from Lipsy stripping out stuff is acceptable then your C-Lipsy NG might be an interesting project to look at another one is K-Lipsy which was written for early boot up process some distributions must be endeavoured let's use K-Lipsy for their in-it ramfs in early boot up process which is what it was actually written for it's only a subset of Lipsy functions optimized for size over performance it uses kernel structures directly to avoid type conversions so for example the kernel has its own idea of struct stat and most Lipsys have their own idea and when you call stat in a Lipsy there will be some conversion going on whereas in K-Lipsy you just use the kernel struct stat and it gets passed on this type of thing makes K-Lipsy extremely small it's only 75 kilobytes but it's not powerful enough to act as a real work Lipsy it doesn't have all the functions that you will need to compile a full system it might be good enough for some embedded systems one thing to look out there is it uses GPL kernel headers and that results in a kernel license situation that is not completely clear so you might end up putting your entire system under the GPL making it problematic if someone wants to run any non-free applications on top of it which of course if you are trying to push open software heavily might be a good thing but if you are targeting people who might be doing anything that's the reason to avoid it there's another thing much like the OpenARC compiler we've talked about before this is vaporware for now but there's some code there it's the LLVM Lipsy it's in really early stages there's some code you can look at but it doesn't do a lot yet I wouldn't usually have listed this because it's still in early stages but it has some really interesting features like it's designed from the ground up to work with sanitizers and fast testing so you will likely not end up running into all sorts of bugs that have been plaguing other Lipsys for decades it's targeting only C17 and up so you won't have to carry around all the prehistoric craft one design goal of it given that it is just like the Clang compiler a part of LLVM is to use source-based implementations so write everything in the Lipsy in C itself instead of going down to the level of writing assembly that you will find in most other Lipsys and while at it fix the compiler to generate a code that is just as good as the handcrafted assembly code you will find in other Lipsys so if nothing else this Lipsy will help make the compilers better and of course it does come out of a project that has a track record of delivering good options so I'm pretty sure they will get there eventually it's not like it's just some project that is sprung out of nowhere saying okay we are doing this and we will be better than everything else and then it will disappear in a couple of days again there is another option which is Bionic if you've ever looked at Android source code you'll have seen this one it's originally based on the BSD Lipsy it contains some code from free BSD some from open BSD, some from net BSD and some written for Bionic itself it currently only supports the most relevant architectures 32 and 64 bit versions of x86 and ARM it is quite optimized because a lot of vendors put a lot of effort into optimizing Android in the early stages it used to be totally unusable for building a regular Linux system like it didn't have system 5 shared memory which was needed for x11 but it has largely caught up on that and it's by now a fully usable Lipsy but unfortunately at the same time they've added a lot of things to it that are really not existent in stuff outside of Android so there's the APEX stuff which essentially tries to mount any files as directories and look at what's in there which is part of Android's package manager and then there's system properties that last time I checked relied on Android's init implementation to work and the build system is tied to the Android 3 so it is kind of complicated to rip out Bionic and build some non-Android system on top of it but of course doing that gives you a couple of interesting options like using closed drivers that have been written for Android without having to go through hex like the early Piperis and it may be interesting if you're building the Linux Android hybrid system which in some ways makes sense there's one comment in the Q&A which says actually QOS 2.0 can build Bionic so you don't need Android's build system that is really good news I'm definitely going to check that out I must have missed that when it was added and I hope it targets current versions of Bionic that could make things a lot easier so I'll definitely check it out and maybe you talk about that at the next DLC there's a few more options but I'm not going to consider those for full lipsies for a system that's newlyp which is limited to static linking so you might want to look at it if you don't need dynamic linking but pretty much everything except super low and embedded devices will want dynamic linking which pretty much rolls it out and then there's DietLipsy which is another very optimized FOSS-ICE Lipsy but it's not very actively maintained the last release was I think two or three years ago another drawback of this one is that it's GPL licensed which for applications is great but for something as low level as a Lipsy is probably going a bit too extreme because that puts your users into questionable situations if they want to run anything non-free on top of it like trying to build steam or something on top of GPL Lipsy would be problematic so that's probably another one you may want to look at if you have some special needs but it's not as general purpose as the others so what's the best choice to make? again there's no super clear winner if you need maximum compatibility with all the standards if you need binary compatibility with the big distributions out there you pretty much have to go with G-Lipsy if you need something full-fledged but smaller, more memory efficient you probably want to go with muscle if you want to... if all you need is a subset and you can strip out unneeded components if it's clear what you won't be needing G-Lipsy and G-Lipsy might be an interesting choice because that makes stripping out parts easiest and Bionic is obviously interesting if you want to experiment with Android features or if you are looking at a code that has been optimized already by Android guys next up we have C++ support there's a couple of implementations of the standard template library STL which is part of the C++ standard the first option is Lipsy C++ which is part of GCC so that is used by almost all the Linux distributions even the ones that use Clang as their primary compiler the only notable exception is Android and I think the BSDs as well but they are not a Linux distribution so in the context of Linux distribution they don't count and pretty much everything that's being developed in the open world is developed against Lipsy C++ so if you want to avoid tweaking code by adding missing includes or something that happened to be ignored by Lipsy C++ this is what you want to use but there's also Lipsy C++ which is part of LLVM that comes with Clang it's newer and smaller than Lipsy C++ than Lipsy C++ carries less craft that's needed only to support ancient code most benchmarks show it performing better and also show it to be more memory efficient but there's a problem there you can't mix the Lipsy C++ and Lipsy C++ because they export the same symbols but they are not fully binary compatible so you get into an interesting situation when you have for example Qt built against Lipsy C++ then you grab a binary that was built on some other distribution with Qt that was built against Lipsy C++ then that binary wants to call into functions from both STL implementations that's not going to work, that's just going to crash so if you expect running into a situation where your user will end up running third-party binaries built against something else that's the main reason why you don't want to use Lipsy C++ that's why we aren't using it in OpenMount Reaver even though we'd like to one interesting thing is that third-party applications like Chromium increasingly just embed their own copy of Lipsy C++ obviously they can do it because they don't expect anything else to link against their binaries so they make sure that anything that is linked against it is not linked against any system library that would be using a different STL so if you want to go their way of essentially including an entire distribution in your binary Lipsy C++ is certainly also a really good option for the sake of completeness there's UC Lipsy C++ which was an attempt to write an STL implementation to go along with UC Lipsy an interesting feature there is that you can strip out some parts of the STL but the last commit to it was in 2016 so there's a good chance you don't want to use this anymore we have some more questions one is can we use G Lipsy or Muscle with Clang the answer for Muscle is yes it works with either compiler you can probably even build it with TinyCC if you feel like it, I haven't tried it but I don't see why it wouldn't work and for G Lipsy the answer is not at the moment but there's a couple of patches for an older version that make it sort of work so if someone wants to port those patches to account G Lipsy that would make it possible and that would definitely be interesting for the future and I'll probably try to do that at some point but right now I just don't have the time the other one is how Muscle provides better memory efficient Lipsy which I guess is why is Muscle smaller than G Lipsy essentially it's mostly by leaving out the support for older obsolete standards and by having smaller implementations of some of the functions I hope that answers all the questions so far let's go on to the next thing conclusions for C++ support is essentially if binary compatibility with other Linux distributions is a big concern you really want to go with libstdc++ because that's whatever one is using but if you're using Clang and you care about performance and memory efficiency more than compatibility libc++ is something you clearly want to look at okay lastly we want to take a look at what the right thing to do is in a distribution given there's no clear best option for everything a distribution should try to support developers for all options I'm going to talk about some things we've already done in OpenMintRiva and that you can be doing in your favorite distribution as well and a few things that we are planning to do in the next couple of versions that would also be good to be adopted a bit more widely one thing you want to do is keep your cross-compilers up to date with Clang that is something that happens automatically because the cross-compilers are all in the same binary anyway but with GCC you often end up packaging one cross-compiler and then leaving it there, it works, it works and you update the system GCC you update the system GCC again and the cross-compiler remains that the old version is just not the way it should be done so the best way to do it is to build the cross-compilers if you are packaging any from the same source as the main version of GCC that can be done quite easily we figured out how to do it in the OpenMintRiva packages if you want to see how we've done it I've put a link to the package source in the slides this is using RPM but obviously you can do the same thing with other package managers and essentially the idea is simply using a for loop that builds all the cross-compilers at the same time from the same source with the same patches so you will always keep your tool chains in sync next up is file system changes we used to have the situation where there's just user-lib and then some distributions added user-lib 64 some added user-lib 32 to make sure that 64-bit and 32-bit binaries can coexist but that's really no longer sufficient there's multiple ABIs so for example on ARM you have 164-bit ABI but there's multiple 32-bit like you have EABI versus the old ABI you have Neon versus Non-Neon and you might need to have more than two of those on one system of course QEMU BinFMT is coming along really nicely making it possible to run code for different CPUs without the user even noticing it so if only you had all the libraries in the right place you could run x86 windows applications and vine on an ARM box I wouldn't even have to notice so some distributions most of the Debian derivatives have already opted for a solution there they are now creating user-lib triplet so you have for example user-lib x86 Linux GNU and user-lib AX64 Linux GNU which is a step in the right direction but I think there's a way to do it even better which is going for user-triplet-lib instead of user-lib triplet because this allows combining the real file system you have for the cross compiler sysroot so essentially your user AX64 Linux GNU is at the same time the sysroot for your AX64 cross compiler and the place for libraries that will be picked up by QEMU if you try to run an ARM64 binary you can also put includes that are not architecture independent for example headers that hard-code 32 bit or 64 bit references include directory that belongs there and you can overwrite binaries for a couple of places where it's necessary to have different binaries thankfully that's only needed for a few libraries so for example some older libraries don't use PKG config or so to find stuff but they have some whatever library dash config binary that gets all the information and you don't typically want to use the 64 bit version to compile a 32 bit binary or vice versa and this type of file system change also makes it possible to keep all the compatibility with older systems you want because you can just create a same link that links the triplet slash lib directory that you created in this change to the traditional directory name whether that was lib or lib32 or lib64 so that's pretty much what I had to say about toolchain options I'm still going to take questions, feedback and obviously if you have any spare specs of cache so now is a good time to ask or you can email me or find me on the Slack channels in the conference okay it doesn't look like we are getting more questions oh it does something let me see okay there's actually some questions coming in I just didn't spot them because the window was scrolled out so one was what does STL mean it's the standard template library that's just the C++ standard library so standard template library, libstdc++ libc++ all the same so another question was can glibc be built leaving out older legacy functionality not by itself but obviously if you're comfortable tweaking make files editing stuff you can adjust it, the code is open so if you want to do it certainly you can next question, what do you think about function multi-versioning for support of multiple arcs and one binary is this a possible solution that could minimize OS file system size I haven't actually seen an option that would allow multi-versioning for completely different architectures like that would allow a 64-bit ARM and a 32-bit x86 version of the same function in the same library I might be wrong about this I've certainly never seen it but the drawback of that obviously is that it makes it hard to strip out stuff you don't need so for example if you're building the distribution for an ARM system and you want wine to run so you need x86, 32 and 64 there's no way the user could just decide I don't want to use wine anyway so let me just strip out all the x86 crap from the library so for this particular thing I don't think that's really much of an option obviously it is interesting for stuff where you're targeting for example Intel x86 and AMD x86 with slightly different options most of the functions can actually be the same and you just want specific functions optimized for one particular processor okay I think that's all of it there's a couple more so-called questions saying thank you well of course I'm returning that thank you all too and I keep checking for messages for a bit okay unless I've missed anything you've got all the questions covered so thanks for attending and oh wait, the new question just came in which is is Clang supporting new instructions for ARM x86 the answer to that is yes it generally adds support for them quite quickly occasionally ahead of gcc mostly a little bit behind gcc but usually the support is in quite quickly you can use stuff like dashmrg equals send version 2 or dashmrg equals Skylake or whatever okay another one is any idea of my build route doesn't support clang yet unfortunately no I have no idea probably because the maintainer doesn't like it or likes gcc better but I'm pretty sure if someone wants to they would take a patch and there's another one, any word on debuggers essentially we have gdb which has been the default for a long time we also have lldb which is the version that comes with llvm essentially that is getting there as well, I haven't used it a lot yet but it looks promising as well so those two are certainly things to keep in mind and I'm not aware of any options that are not based on either of those but there might be any I just haven't had much of a need to go looking for anything else because gdb and lldb do okay I think I've caught up so let's check for a second longer if there's new questions coming in but I think we are done what would you say is the more stable variant of libc for embedded use that's a good question, they are all pretty good so embedded use obviously can mean anything from a Cortex-M to a relatively high end device like a modern smartphone it really makes sense to look at the exact things you need gdb is obviously the option that has been used on everything for a long time so that is a good default but if you need to save more space it's probably more interesting possibly also you see libc if you want to strip out parts but if you're looking for a full-fledged one I'd go with muscle if you're building a phone then maybe bionic is also an interesting option because thanks to android that has had a lot of testing in that context okay let's see the new stuff is coming in right now so I think we are done oh wait, there's another one it's a comment saying muscle is a nice option because of its MIT license you can build static binaries without the constraints of the lgpl license yeah that's true, obviously being an open source guy I think that regardless of what the license forces you to do you should be releasing your code but if for some reason you can't do that obviously the MIT license is another reason to go with muscle okay so we've had a couple of questions some feedback, no backs of cash yet so you still might want to send those nothing coming in just thanks, well thanks for you too okay and then I guess we are done and hope to see you at the
