Encrypting disks on Ubuntu 19.04

Recently, I encrypted my disks using LUKS (The Linux Unified Key Setup) specification and installed Ubuntu 19.04 on encrypted partitions. In my experience, I think that LUKS is currently the best and stable way to encrypt your data on Ubuntu.

Read my medium story on how I enabled LUKS full disk encryption on selected partitions with step by step instructions (including screenshots).

Flame Graphs with Java Flight Recordings

Flame Graphs Brendon D. Gregg , who is a computer performance analyst , has created  Flame Graphs to visualize stack traces in an interactive way. You must watch his talk at USENIX/LISA13 , titled Blazing Performance with Flame Graphs , which explains Flame Graphs in detail. There can be different types of flame graphs and I'm focusing on  CPU Flame Graphs  with Java in this blog post. Please look at the Flame Graphs Description  to understand the Flame Graph visualization. CPU Flame Graphs and Java Stack Traces As  Brendon  mentioned in his talk, understanding why CPUs are busy is very important when analyzing performance.  CPU Flame Graphs  is a good way to identify hot methods from sampled stack traces. In order to generate CPU Flame Graphs for Java Stack Traces , we need a way to get sample stack traces. Brendon has given examples to use jstack  and Google's lightweight-java-profiler . Please r...

Java CPU Flame Graphs

Update (September 14, 2015): Java 8 Update 60 was released on August 18, 2015. There are some recent changes to "perf-map-agent". There is no longer a script named "perf-java" and you should use "bin/create-java-perf-map.sh " Brendan Gregg shared an exciting news in his Monitorama talk: The " JDK-8068945 " is fixed in Java 8 Update 60 Build 19 ! Without this fix, it was not possible to see full stack in Java with Linux perf_events and standard JDK (without any patches). For more information, see Brendan's Java CPU Flame Graphs page. The Problem with Java and Perf First of all, let's see what's the problem with using current latest Java and perf. For this example, I used the same program explained in my previous blog post regarding FlameGraphs . java org.wso2.example.JavaThreadCPUUsage.App Then I sampled on-CPU functions for Java program using perf. (See Brendan's Perf Examples ) sudo perf record -F 99 -g -...

Vacation!

Image
I have been waiting for almost 2 years to create a blog.. and finally my dream came true.. Yes! it's vacation! I had so many plans after I completed the exam in June. I was bit scared about the exam as I couldn't try my best at the exam. I got my results this month and I'm happy about my marks. One of my plans was to create my own blog.. I'm very much inspired by some of my friends' blogs and I wanted my own blog badly. Actually, I'm writing this post after 19 days creating this blog. I didn't get much "free time" as expected. These days I'm very busy with my office work. Sometimes, I fed up with programming, as I'm staring at the monitor 10 hours per day! But I enjoy what I'm doing. These days we're developing a web application using ICEfaces , Spring and Websphere eXtreme Scale . Working with new technology is always very interesting. But I'm exhausted..... Best thing happened in this vacation was our batch trip. We all went ...
