# This is a skeleton for testing models including examples of validations, callbacks,
# scopes, instance & class methods, associations, and more.
# Pick and choose what you want, as all models don't NEED to be tested at this depth.
#
# I'm always eager to hear new tips & suggestions as I'm still new to testing,
# so if you have any, please share!

# In order for gpg to find gpg-agent, gpg-agent must be running, and there must be an env
# variable pointing GPG to the gpg-agent socket. This little script, which must be sourced
# in your shell's init script (ie, .bash_profile, .zshrc, whatever), will either start
# gpg-agent or set up the GPG_AGENT_INFO variable if it's already running.

# Add the following to your shell init to set up gpg-agent automatically for every shell

Tuning Intel Skylake and beyond for optimal performance and feature level support on Linux:

Note that on Skylake, Kabylake (and the now cancelled "Broxton") SKUs, functionality such as power saving, GPU scheduling and HDMI audio have been moved onto binary-only firmware, and as such, the GuC and the HuC blobs must be loaded at run-time to access this functionality.

Enabling GuC and HuC on Skylake and above requires a few extra parameters be passed to the kernel before boot.

Instructions provided for both Fedora and Ubuntu (including Debian):

Note that the firmware for these GPUs is often packaged by your distributor, and as such, you can confirm the firmware blob's availability by running:

Docker Swarm Mode Ports

Starting with 1.12 in July 2016, Docker Swarm Mode is a built-in solution with built-in key/value store. Easier to get started, and fewer ports to configure.

Inbound Traffic for Swarm Management

• TCP port 2377 for cluster management & raft sync communications
• TCP and UDP port 7946 for "control plane" gossip discovery communication between all nodes
• UDP port 4789 for "data plane" VXLAN overlay network traffic
• IP Protocol 50 (ESP) if you plan on using overlay network with the encryption option
