Here' a longer recording of me surviving in Road to Vostok running on #OpenBSD:

It's in early access, but has been very stable. You need a decent CPU/GPU able to run Vulkan for this.

@jeanmimi not sure what happened, it's up again now
@xhr The link was only for the livestream. The videos are on the channel. Framerate is NOT representative, as there is a severe dip compared to running it without streaming it.
Also some fauxstream "broken pipe" issues, which meant restarting the stream in multiple small video increments.
First one (launching the game) here:

You can see the beginnings of a new game here:

Mark Kettenis has added #OpenBSD/arm64 support for the new hw.blockcpu sysctl, classifying CPU types based on device-tree and ACPI CPPC information.
kettenis@ modified src/sys/arch/arm64/*: Add hw.blockcpu support for arm64. Here we classify CPU cores based on their "capacity". This a concept borrowed from the device tree standard that indicates the nominal performance of a CPU core. For ACPI machines we use similar information from ACPI's Collaborative Processor Performance Control (CPPC). If performance is less than 30% of the fastest cores in the same we classify them as L. Between 30% and 80% we classify them as E.
And above 80% we classify them as P. The CPU capacity is communicated to userland though kstat(4).
ok deraadt@, jca@
In addition to using kstat(1) on your machines, kettenis@ tested the following machines:
- Lenovo x13s (Snapdragon 8c): Cortex-A78C -> E + Cortex-X1C -> P
- Rock 5B (Rockchip RK3588): Cortex-A55 -> E + Cortex-A76 -> P
- Apple Mac mini (M2 Pro): Blizzard -> E + Avalanche -> P
- Radxa Orion O6 (Cix CD8180): Cortex-A520 -> L + Cortex-A720 -> P

Will stream Western- and Lovecraftian-themed soulsborne demake Tombwater from OpenBSD at 23:00 UTC:
