alt Hacker NewsRenaming fopen64 to intercept library calls feels like a brittle hack masquerading as "sandboxing." Why not just upstream this hardware support to nvtop instead of fragmenting the ecosystem?

If this logic were pushed into nvtop, wouldn't the codebase become unmaintainable? Each vendor's interception method is going to be different.

sadly, sandboxing is something that can't be upstreamed. this way, sandboxing is kept in zml instead of patching mesa.
as for nvtop, great program, but we missed a few features (such as sandboxing)
