Hi all. Does Clear Linux support running binaries for the x32 ABI? If I look at the following line # CONFIG_X86_X32 is not set in https://github.com/clearlinux-pkgs/linux-lts/blob/master/config , it seems to be disabled. For many applications, x32 clearly outperforms i386 and x86-64, e.g. (for functional programming): https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/chicken-users/2015-09/msg00000.html https://sympa.inria.fr/sympa/arc/bigloo/2016-12/msg00015.html In the long run, also compiling x32 binaries could be an important performance option for Clear Linux. Ciao Sven

Documentation restructure

by Hutchinson, Ianeta

All, Today, a documentation restructure went live on Clearlinux.org (https://clearlinux.org/documentation/clear-linux/clear-linux.html). This change improves navigation throughout our docs and make contributing to CL docs easier. Content is now categorized into five sections: Get Started, Concepts, Guides, Tutorials, and Reference. Descriptions on the sections are as follows: Get Started: Information about installing Clear Linux. Concepts: Detailed technical information about features. Guides: Step-by-step instructions to complete common tasks. Tutorials: Step-by-step instructions to complete the installation and configuration of tools needed for a specific use case. Reference: Information providing additional context or details. With this restructure comes URL changes to many existing documents. To ensure continued access, redirects have been applied to all affected URLs and will remain until further notice. Cheers, Ianeta

Use Clear Container in multi-tenant environment

by Jovi Zhangwei

Just one question about isolation of Clear Container. As we known, Clear Container use vm to provides underlying process isolation, it indeed makes container be more secure, but I'm thinking if this is enough for multi-tenant env, for example, image management, if client A pulls a image, then client B may see the image, actually this is not allowed in multi-tenant environment. I also have some concerns about the isolation of network and storage. So maybe what I'm looking for is an end to end isolation solution to use clear container in multi-tenant environment, includes the isolation of network, storage, image and process. :) Great thanks.

[PATCH postgresql] Specify shell for postgres user

Because the postgres user has a default shell of /usr/bin/nologin, the install ExecStart command will fail.
