BtrFS -- Scrub free spacean idea by winddss Currently only those disk blocks are checked that are allocated by the filesystem and in use. To check for read errors on unallocated blocks can be beneficial to identify hardware that is going to fail in the near future. As my first project in BtrFS, I'll also learn some development skill on BtrFS. |

investigate how kernel live patching worksa project by herbert0890 kGraft is SUSE Labs answer to the rising need for being able to patch the running kernel without rebooting the system. I think this kind of tool is very cool, so by this hackweek chance, I want to investigate it how it works and how it was implemented. And also by this chance, I hope I can improve my ability of kernel hacking. If you are also interested in kernel live patching, please join this project together. |

Say Hi!an idea by aplank Imagine you are sitting in the subway and suddenly the woman of your dreams sits down next to you. You are thinking hard about what to say to her, but since you are too shy she gets out three stops later and you never see her again. What if you both would have had an application running on your phones, to help you come over that awkward situation of just saying "Hi!"? How does it work? |
add IP camera to new kicker room to reduce collisionsa project by sleep_walker From time to time we face collisions when two teams would like to play at the same time. As our kicker table moved back to our building, it should be possible to reach the space with WiFi. There is also power plug available so installing IP web camera should be easy enough. |
Add "update" option to py2packan idea by tbechtold py2pack (https://github.com/saschpe/py2pack) is used to create rpm packages from python modules. Would be great if py2pack can also update an existing package (download new version, update spec file, check requirements, ...) |
Automatic performance analytical framework and dashboardan idea by mgorman My last hackweek project was "melbot", a server-side automated system for running performance tests. This went from being a project to something the performance team now uses heavily. The volume of data it now produces is excessive and problems are easily missed. It's a short hackweek for me due to being on holiday for two of the days but there are three objectives to the hackweek project 1. Rename melbot to marvin. The melbot name was a joke that has outlived its usefulness |

Disk operations should not stale the systeman idea by pmladek It happens from time to time that my system is less responsible. It is usually caused by extensive disk operations, e.g. searching disk for something, moving a lot of data. A solution would be to run these problematic tasks with ionice. But I think that desktop user should not need to take care of this. Also some of the operations are even caused by system tools and normal user has problems to affect it. I wonder if we could somehow improve the desktop setting or it it would even need some hacks into the scheduler. I have just heard that this should be fined in the last kernels. But I also heard that it still does not work well, for example when copying from/to USB memory stick. |
Grub2: make it easy to select the default boot targetan idea by pmladek "grub2-once" allows to print a numbered list of available targets using --list option. It allows to select the boot target using the number. It would be great to add this functionality to the "grub2-set-default" command as well. |

Secure zero-trust P2P barter protocolan idea by KGronlund The use of the bitcoin testnet for trading cards for Hackweek got me thinking about a protocol more adapted for the tit-for-tat trade of virtual goods: the transaction only completed once both sides have contributed their share to the transaction. It would need some way for each side to verify that the goods traded are those agreed on. It would be an interesting problem to work on (or find some existing solution). |
arbs - Mirror an ArchLinux package repository in a Build Servicea project by rneuhauser > [arbs] is a tool for keeping an OBS project in sync with an ArchLinux package repository. More specifically, I use it to sync [home:roman-neuhauser:arch-community][h:rn:ac] with [community.git][c.git], a mirror of the actual svn repository underlying community. arbs already exists but has many rough edges. the goal of this hackweek project is to make it resilient in the various failure scenarios so it can be used in a truly unattended fashion. |
CalDAV/CardDAV client in PHPa project by holgisms CalDAV [1] and CardDAV [2] are client/server protocols designed to allow users to access and share calendar and contact data on a server. There are many CalDAV and CardDAV clients around, e.a. Thunderbird/Lightning and also free CalDAV and CardDAV servers like Baïkal. With that project I want to create a client in PHP to be able to create and modify data in calendars and addressbooks from websites. |

Play with CoreOSa project by wanghaisu CoreOS is a new Linux distribution that has been rearchitected to provide features needed to run modern infrastructure stacks. CoreOS is popular on most cloud providers (EC2, Rackspace, GCE), virtualization platforms (Vagrant, VMware, OpenStack, QEMU/KVM) and bare metal servers (PXE, iPXE, ISO, Installer). Play with CoreOS during hackweek and see how and why it works well for HA. |

Look at using the boost graph library as main container for devices in libstoragea project by aschnell Storing the devices in libstorage as a graph looks like a natural approach. The boost graph library (BGL) could be used here instead of the selfmade iterator over iterator (not a graph) concept currently used. Together with a redesign of the current objects several features would be simple, e.g. using disks for filesystems, renaming LVM volume groups and logical volumes, switching to and from partitioned MD RAID. |
detect and visualise git commits' patch-based dependenciesa project by aspiers It is well-known that two git commits within a single repo can be independent from each other, by changing separate files to each other, or changing separate parts of the same file(s). Conversely when a commit changes a line, it is "dependent" on not only the commit which last changed that line, but also any commits which were responsible for providing the surrounding lines of context, because without those previous versions of the line and its context, the commit's diff would not cleanly apply.
As with most dependency relationships, these form a directed acyclic graph. Sometimes it is useful to understand the nature of parts of this graph; for example when porting a commit "A" between git branches via |

Rebirth Guile-Luaa project by NalaGinrut GNU Guile-2.2 will be based on brand new backend, CPS(continuation passing style) as the most significant IR, and a RegisterVM. These are the prerequisite for the final AOT compiler. The old Guile-Lua is old for compatible with the brand new RegisterVM, moreover, it uses LL(1) which is painful for hacking. I've rewritten the parser with LALR and all the intermediate part before transfer it to Tree-IL which is another iR before CPS. Besides, I'm trying to add type-inferencing and partial-evaluation for Lua specific optimizing. Although there's partial-evaluator in Guile backend, it's a generic one for all the front-end languages. |
Build a sharable local virtualization testing environmenta project by cyliu Currently whenever there is a test, we need to find or build environment on our own machine or borrow some one else's machine temparorily. I hope we can collect all testing machines in our local team and build a sharable testing environment. Every one can reserve and use the machine, add machine, check machine info to find proper one (hardware and software) for test, share vm images, share other testing related resources, etc. |

Warp speed for virtualization CI testinga project by jfehlig The virtualization team's automated testing has a long history. It was born in the old Novell Integration Test framework. The virtualization lab ran an instance of this framework for many years. Over time, those who knew the framework left the company, taking their knowledge and leaving little documentation behind. As our testing needs increased, we found the old framework insufficient, but saw little value in improving it given the available open source CI frameworks. Before burying ourselves in SLE12 development, we took some time to move our automated tests under control of a Jenkins instance running in our lab. Tests were configured to run when new packages landed in our SLE12 devel project, ensuring our queued SLE12 submissions were continuously tested. But more is needed. |
Look into Intel SGX (Software Guard Extensions) for KVM Virtualizationan idea by bfrogers Learn more about SGX and how that might get used with KVM Virtualization. |
kvmctx - a tool similar to xenctx, but for KVMa project by bfrogers I just learned about xenctx, which is used to help debug Xen issues. I am wondering if it would be easily ported to KVM. If not, perhaps at least creating the equivalent for KVM may be useful for handling problems with KVM guests. |
Shell script merging for crash use on L3 Europe and NTS USA core dump serversa project by dmair Each of the core dump upload servers in Europe and USA could be improved if the shell scripts were combined so that the same tasks can be performed on each site, e.g. downloading of all packages needed for crash usage with a specified core dump by allowing for configurable (or even automated) selection of locations to obtain data packages from. |

pxe boot oncean idea by osynge pxe + autoyast is awesome but when multiple people share a pxe server is a pain. I understand foreman / chef provide a solution for this, but they are linked to puppet / chef. What I want is a simple modular tool to make life easy. pxe boot would allows you to send a simple http request and the next reboot of the server / VM will boot a non interactive fresh install. users |
