Native Secure Enclave backed ssh keys on MacOS

It turns out that MacOS Tahoe can generate and use secure-enclave backed SSH keys! This replaces projects like https://github.com/maxgoedjen/secretive

There is a shared library /usr/lib/ssh-keychain.dylib that traditionally has been used to add smartcard support to ssh by implementing PKCS11Provider interface. However since recently it also implements SecurityKeyProivder which supports loading keys directly from the secure enclave! SecurityKeyProvider is what is normally used to talk to FIDO2 devices (e.g. libfido2 can be used to talk to your Yubikey). However you can now use it to talk to your Secure Enclave instead!

Warnings

What you do with this information is your own responsibility. If you brick your TV trying this, it's not my fault. You should probably have some electronics experience if you want to attempt this.

This is going to involve opening your TV and attaching wires to the pins of an integrated circuit. If you're not comfortable with that, this is not for you.

This document is a work in progress.

debugstatus

LG TVs since at least the era of NetCast and "Global Platform" (webOS predecessors) have had the notion of a debug level, generally called "debugstatus". There are three modes: DEBUG, EVENT, and RELEASE. TVs normally operate in RELEASE mode. DEBUG mode enables a variety of logging and other debugging features in webOS, including access to the bootloader console and debug menus via serial. EVENT is similar to DEBUG, although it may not enable as much logging and has other relatively minor differences.

Exposing zfs snapshot to windows previous version using samba vfs_shadow_copy2

This was much trickier than I had originally anticipated and have spent a few hours testing.

The config from samba wiki absolutely works, but it wasn't ranked higher in search engine and it's not general enough. https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs-auto-snapshot/wiki/Samba

Tested on ubuntu 22.04LTS, samba 4.15.9 and windows 11.

Media Workflow for Jellyfin

I thought that it would be nice to share this not only because it would save others a lot of time figuring out this mess. So if you find something that could be improved or is just wrong, I will happily update this post.
