Work on FPGA Acceleration for Cloud infrastructurean idea by lyan As we know, hardware accelerator is more and more important to AI/Machine Learning today, FPGA also comes to the front line beside with GPU. It is really helpful to understand its mechanism before deploying in a cloud environment. I will go back to on my AC620 board, A Cyclone IV FPGA, and It has been a while since last time. As part of my FPGA virtualization Project, I will continue work on some simulation, refresh my verilog skill. |

Uyuni (property based testing (with (lisp) ))an idea by dmaiocchi I will not have the time for bootstrapping this project but I think given the JVM platform of Uyuni, it would be coherent to setup a property-based testing with clojure, from which developers could call JAVA code easy without problem, (for using some classes) but also people could learn new programming models like clojure |
libpathrsa project by cyphar The plan is to implement a safe path resolution library for Linux to avoid the plentiful numbers of security vulnerabilities that have been seen in the wild related to path resolution race conditions and various other attacks. I've been working on kernel-space solutions but even if they were merged, it is difficult to use them safely directly. So this library intends to provide simple wrappers that everyone can use. https://github.com/openSUSE/libpathrs |
Enable opensuse on Jetson Nano and learn how DL frameworks work on itan idea by lyan Current Jetson Nano image is based on Ubuntu distro, This project will try to deploy a opensuse version. Furthermore, I will take a closer look on deep learning framework, and learn how they use hardware accelerator. First, boot up Jeston nano with Ubuntu, and deploy Tensorflow(Keras), Pytorch(Caffee2), MXNet, the most popular DL framework today, on it. Understand how those frameworks take advantage of hardware accelerator. |
Differentiate Microsoft virtualization types (WSL1/WSL2/Azure/Hyper-V) in SUSEConnecta project by wstephenson People are interested in Linux on Windows via WSL, especially given the new fully virtualized Linux kernel in WSL 2. It's interesting to know whether registered SUSE installations might be running in WSL as opposed to other Microsoft virtualization platforms, but the current approach taken by SUSEConnect (the client for SUSE Customer Center) does not permit this. |
Write "advanced" tagging engine for Djangoa project by gniebler This is a side project I started a while ago. The idea is to implement a tagging engine with some "advanced" features for the Django web framework (in what Django calls a "reusable app").

Integrate edk2 code better into our qemu packagean idea by bfrogers Upstream qemu has decided to include the edk2 based efi firmware support code directly into the qemu project (as it has long done for seabios, for example.) Work on including the types of tweaks we would want to also include so that we also provide the equivalent of what is currently delivered in the existing edk2 packages. |
Improve git workflow for qemu packagingan idea by bfrogers For some time I've wanted to improve our git based patch workflow for qemu to be more friendly toward "generic joe" contributing fixes, and for handling patching the code in git submodules just as easily as we handle patching for the main qemu code. Once again, I'll try to make some progress here. This time, hopefully it will stick. |

Learn Vim scriptingan idea by npower I use vim (yes one of those people) but I am a real non power user, I'd like something like Aurelien's smbmode for Emacs to be available when I open samba log files in vim. I have no idea how possible or not this is. I came across this tutorial/book some time ago but didn't find the time to look at it. I'd like to go through the book and hopefully have a crack at starting a samba log reader plugin for vim (duplicating the features from smbmode) |
Phylogen: an iterative approach to evolutionary tree analysisa project by dmulder https://github.com/dmulder/phylogen As part of a graduate project I created the phylogen script, which combines the ASTRAL and IQTREE analysis tools into one iterative approach to finding the highest bootstrap score tree for various species of Mayflies. At the completion of the project, there was some work left undone, and I had a few ideas on how to improve the average bootstrap score of the final tree. |

Azure File Service compatible REST frontend for CephFSan idea by dmdiss The Azure File Service protocol offers a RESTful interface for files and directories which are simultaneously exported via SMB. Ceph already provides separate (S3 compatible) REST and SMB (Samba) gateways, but they expose storage object via different layers and as a result don't allow for cross protocol access to the same data. |

Clustered Samba with Ceph omap as a replacement for CTDB key-value storagea project by dmdiss Ceph offers a highly scalable and fault-tolerant storage system. Samba is already capable of sharing data located on the Ceph Filesystem, however scale-out sharing (the same data exposed by multiple Samba nodes) currently requires the use of CTDB for consistent and coherent state across Samba cluster nodes. In such a setup CTDB provides a clustered database with persistent key-value data storage and locking. Database usage is abstracted out via a generic dbwrap interface. Ceph's librados library provides an API for the storage and retrieval of arbitrary key-value data via the omap functions. A watch/notify protocol is also provided as a mechanism for synchronising client state (locking). Key-value data stored in the RADOS back-end inherits the same redundancy features as regular objects, making it a potentially good candidate as a replacement for CTDB in scale-out Samba clusters. |
Integrate Bard with MusicBrainz and implement a proper web interfacea project by alarrosa My music manager, Bard, was improved in the last hackweek with a very simple React-based web interface but I didn't like the result at all (basically, after learning React I noticed I didn't like it and all the dependencies and the complexity it added) so since then, I've reimplemented the web interface using just jQuery. Also, in the last months I've added musicbrainz data structures to the database (which was also ported to use Postgresql) to prepare bard to use MusicBrainz's data. I also stopped using other python libraries to read audio files and use the ffmpeg libraries directly instead with a c++ wrapper implemented inside Bard which is much much faster. In this hackweek I'll try to finish the integration of Bard with MusicBrainz (basically, import the needed MB data to the database) and use it to generate a web interface that shows and uses that information to organize music. This would allow to show information and for example perform searches for songs not only on the main artist but also on performers or even mixer (see for an example all information available on this Queen album) |
Geekos x Externaltoolsa project by farahschueller The day has come to finally merge more and more apps into one single place, and this time it shall be externaltools.

SUSE Manager for Retail Instructional Video Tutoriala project by lkotek The goal of this project is to create video tutorial describing configuration of SUSE Manager for Retail.

ethtool ops for netdevsima project by mkubecek This can be seen as a subproject of ethtool netlink interface but from the technical view it's independent. Every new piece of software is going to be buggy and with frequent changes and rewrites, new regressions are introduced. Automated selftests can help a lot but as ethtool deals with hardware devices, we do not want these tests to depend on a specific hardware. The netdevsim driver was created as a virtual device which (unlike e.g. dummy) cannot be used for actual network traffic but implements various configuration interfaces so that it can be used for their (automated) testing. |

Graph Visualization of a Cloud Environmentan idea by joadavis This is actually stealing an idea from Mark Harvey - see https://etherpad.nue.suse.com/p/SOC-Community-Of-Practice_2019_06_19 Our SUSE OpenStack Clouds can have complex topologies and settings, so a visualization could help greatly when starting to work on an unfamiliar cloud (like in a support call). |
Worst 3D Printer version 2a project by joadavis A few years ago I wrote the "worst 3D Printer". Basically, it takes a 3D model (VRML) and slices it to bitmaps, which can be arranged on paper and printed, then manually cut out and glued together. As you can imagine, just doing a small print could take 500 layers, so it could take a day to assemble (hence "worst"). [1] To be more useful, I want to rewrite the old code to properly support STL format. I attempted this once, but had trouble with the normals and getting the lines to connect correctly. So a rewrite would be good. |
Knative vs CFan idea by bisingh Knative is a relatively new framework built on top of Kubernetes and Istio which provides a serverless container-based application runtime.

UEFI Capsule Update Channel for Minnowboarda project by gary_lin Minnowboard is the platform for UEFI development and supports UEFI capsule update since 0.99, and we are supposed to be able to test the feature with fwupd. However, there is no capsule file in fwupd.org or the official firmware download site. Besides, the Minnowboard firmware source in the current edk2/edk2-platforms git couldn't build due to the recent change of directories. My goal is to rebase the Minnowboard build system to the current git master and create a working up-to-date firmware. Signing the firmware properly would be a plus so that we can apply a private repo in fwupd.org for the development or QA testing. |

Improved mhvtl package: fix the out-of-stream kernel driveran idea by lee_duncan The mhvtl tape library emulation package was originally based on the scsi_debug kernel driver, but has long since grown more complicated, with the mhvtl,ko kernel module now passing almost all SCSI commands to user-level daemons via a clunky device interface. It does this with an out-of-band driver, since the design is so bad it would never be accepted upstream. And with the 4.20 kernel release, it has broken yet again, which is par for the course with out of band drivers. |
Sphero Agmew: a Robotic Cat Toyan idea by epromislow The Sphero SPRK+ is a semi-low-priced, spherical robotic toy that can be driven from a phone app. But it also has a rich javascript API that can be used to drive parameters such as velocity, lights, sounds.

work on sunxi a64 cpufreq driver (for teres-1, pine64)an idea by mbrugger With the teres-1 [1] laptop we have a first arm64 device we could use as end-users. Much work to run mainline kernel + u-boot was done already. But power consumption of the laptop is not optimal (~2 hours of battery life time). The idea is to support cpufreq for the A64 SoC upstream, which would enable the teres-1, pine64 and pinebook to run more power efficient. up to now it seems nobody is working on the driver [2]. |

Remote access to Viessmann Trimatik MCa project by tsbogend Trimatik MC is an older heating control from Viessmann. It has no supported digital interface for remote access, but I found at least two ways to get access to sensor data like various temperatures and state of relay contacts. One way is to use the so called remote control the other use the clock timer. This project will use the latter way, because the hardware adaption is much easier and and all four timer channels could be controlled as well. Remote access will be done via an ESP32, which emulates the clock timer and gets/pushes data via WIFI. Current prototype is able is able to monitor traffic between the original clock timer and the heating control. |

Rewrite Jangouts using React/Reduxa project by IGonzalezSosa We already tried to improve the Jangouts data model in the past and, although we made quite some progress, we did not finish it. I've been playing a bit with React and Redux lately, and I would like now to try a different approach replacing Angular with that combo. Using Vue.js might be another option too. Of course, we are not going to rewrite Jangouts in just one week, but let's see how far we can go. By the way, the redesign branch contains some interesting stuff from one of the GSoC that we should consider. |

From matrix to openqa test suite, only need one clicka project by tinawang123 Currently, As QA, we design matrix for the test cases, then use matrix to generate test cases' name, then according the test cases' name to add related settings, then add those cases' name and settings to the openQA test suite. I hope, we can design matrix first, then other steps will be generated by automatically. |
Take a look at Metal³ (Kubernetes Bare metal management)a project by ykornilov Metal³ is the idea to support a declarative bare metal cluster management for Kubernates by employing a simplified stand alone version of Ironic.We should explore if |
ssh key management in QAMa project by pluskalm Currently, way we distribute ssh keys within QAM on our testing infrustructure is a bit cumbersome - maybe we should try to (ab)use existing salt used by our internal infra team. |
PXE improvements for QAMa project by pluskalm We kinda need more flexible PXE in Prague office, UEFI would also not hurt - so lets check what we can do to make it better. EDIT (ggherdovich): |

File system block allocation algorithms comparison and analysisa project by ganghe In the past, some customers ever complained that OCFS2 file system performance went down when listing a big directory (e.g. include 400k files). According to my preliminary investigation, this performance problem is related to file system block allocation algorithm. Then, I want to look at the current mainstream file systems (e.g. EXT4, XFS, etc) block allocation algorithms in this hack week, compare and analysis these algorithms advantages/disadvantages. |
Building a cross-browser extensionan idea by jloehel I'd like to get familiar with the different browser extension APIs (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Edge) and learn how to develop, test, package and publish a cross-browser extension. Goal(s): |
Explore RISC-Va project by clin RISC-V is an open ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) based on RISC architecture. It's originated from UC Berkeley and it's attracting more attention in recent years because of its full open architecture so every developer has opportunities to get involved in application processor design or apply it into different applications, such as IoT, Robotics, ... etc. Any topic about RISC-V is welcome, here are some topics you might be interested in: |

Python Romset Management Tools (pyros)a project by jjolly The primary arcade machine emulator is MAME, and it has a very specific format for romset compression. I have previously started a project call pyros that allows the creation and update of MAME romsets. The project consists of the following tools: * pyrex: Tool to create an executable Bash script that will take unorganized files and put them into an organized MAME romset. |
DPHAT: Data Plane Health Assessment Tool For Cloud Networking Technologya project by rtidwell A common challenge for OpenStack and K8S deployments is debugging the network when things go awry. The aim of DPHAT is to provide operators of cloud infrastructure with tooling that can analyze the environment and supply the following: - Feedback that the environment is in a healthy operational state |
Refresh my reverse engineering skillsa project by ematsumiya It's been a little while since I last needed to do some binary reverse engineering, so I want to up my game. Goals |
YES Certification Video Tutorials for SESCK and SOCCKa project by lovance This is to provide partners with video tutorials to help with the certification of their SES and SOC cluster solutions. The goal is to simplify the setup process in order to provide a better experience for the partner. If we can alleviate some of the stress of setting up a cluster more partners will certify their solutions. |
Try rebuilding openSUSE/SLE with maintenance updates includedan idea by pluskalm It was already tried in past, but lets revive this. Currently released distro is locked, and while maintenance updates (active incidents get build against updated packages), lets also try to rebuild everything. What is expected - discover issues/failures due to changes in underlying packages that were otherwise hidden. |
CISSP and Ghidraa project by jsegitz I'll spend half of hackweek preparing for the CISSP certification, in the other half I want to learn Ghidra (https://ghidra-sre.org/) and solve some reverse engineering quests with it |
Demo project for HA using Raspberry pi-sa project by xarbulu I have noticed that explaining HA cluster concepts to non technical people is not easy (my parents for example hehe). In order to improve that I would like to create a more visual project using raspberry pi-s. |
Evaluate mirrormanager (or mirrormanager2) for download.opensuse.org mirror managementa project by lrupp As there is no progress around MIrrorPinky since 5 years now, let's say the project is dead and look for something different, which allows Mirror administrators to edit the settings of their own mirrors. The Fedora people developed a WebUI named mirrormanager for their admins - let's see if we can get it somehow connected to our MIrrorBrain database and use this as frontend instead. |
Add tests shuffling functionality to paracukean idea by e_bischoff Paracuke is a toy project whose first use was to make it easy to run tests in parallel from coroutines. It's an implementation of Cucumber in Go. Now I would like to see if I can add random tests sequence shuffling and, in case of a failure, reduction to minimal sequence: John Hughes - Don't Write Tests, Generate Them - YouTube. |
Write a simple ESMTP mail server in Haskella project by psimons Hackweek 21?Postmaster desperately needs a mail spool. I need to come up with a good way to store meta information about queued messages. An sqlite database seems like a natural fit because I might want to do some nontrivial queries in there to figure out which messages to deliver (and where). On the other hand, interfacing with sqlite is a bit unpleasant, so instead I might want to write one big JSON file that contains all relevant information. That would certainly suffice for the first version ... |
Collectl turbostat modulea project by joeyli Currently the CPU subsystem of Collectl can get the CPU loading but no CPU power state. My idea is that tracing turbostat then developing a collectl module to get the CPU power state. It can be used to monitor C-state or frequency. Reference: Collectl's HelloWorld module, turbostat |
Neutron driver for Ciliuma project by mrostecki It's clear that in Kubernetes world, SUSE and openSUSE chose Cilium as the main network provider, which also means choosing BPF and XDP as underlying technologies for implementing datapath and packet filtering. That's different from what we are doing in OpenStack. SUSE OpenStack Cloud provides mostly Open vSwitch DPDK as a network solution. |

perf-bench ipca project by dbueso The state of the art of sysv/posix ipc benchmarking is a combination of ad-hoc programs scattered over the internet. While some mechanisms, such as sysv semaphores, have a lot of coverage, others really lack (message queues), and some are simply non-existent; albeit some of the legacy flavors we aren't too concerned with, other than them being functionally correct. Consolidate all this by taking the good benchmarks and implement new ones where needed, such as message queues, everything around the 'perf bench' framework. This will both improve the lives of us who hack on kenrel ipc as well as improve coverage overall. Eventually mmtests should be updated as well. |

Add cgroups support to crash-pythona project by mkoutny To ease debugging cgroup relates issues this suggests to: - list cgroup hierarchy tree(s), |
Kernel live dumpan idea by mkoutny There is possibility to run crash on live system, this has some drawbacks though: - not all its features are available (e.g. inspecting stacks of tasks), |
Distribution source code repository/browseran idea by mkoutny Motivation: You know a particular function name and would like to know which package(s) it comes from. Approximation: It is possible to search in code on Github hoping for a match in upstream repo not being too far from our distro. |
Porting Askbot to Python 3a project by rbueker During the last year Askbot, a question and answer oriented internet tool, similar to stack overflow has been tested for internal usage. The testing went well and it was decided to use the tool in a larger scope. |

next-generation email synchronization programa project by dancermak There are various email synchronization programs like offlineimap or mbsync, which have some inherent limitations: - mbsync does not support IMAP IDLE |
ML and AI for code static analysisa project by mvarlese The idea is to explore the technologies and the various components to realize some AI to predict pitfalls in source code which can potentially generate run-time misbehaviours. The potential area where this idea could have positive implications are: |
Suse Manager - SPAa project by LuNeves The experience while navigating throughout the UI of Suse Manager it's not that nice. Whenever we navigate to a new page, the whole page gets refreshed and recreated, even when half of it didn't change a thing, for instance, the menu, topbar, and the notifications WebSocket connection, which in my opinion doesn't provide a smooth experience. This project has the goal to test out an automatic way to transform the Suse Manager UI into a Single Page Application. |

Mottainai - what a waste!a project by EDiGiacinto Mottainai - Task/Job/Build Server for everyone!Written in Golang. You can find the source code on GitHub and docs here. |
My own picture gallery using Flickr APIa project by mvancura Flickr provides not only a large space for photos but also nice features around, including tags and other metadata allowing sorting of photos by different criteria - but one is very limited in the design of something like "frontpage" of such galleries. The solution is to use 3rd party JS solutions using Flickr API, like nanogallery. The purpose of this project is to learn to create such galleries, the best would be to add social features of flickr directly there, like comments or faves. |
online DB of L3 supported productsa project by mvancura The goal is to create a set of YAML files describing L3 supported products with all metadata we need to store there - and a JS presentation layer automatically showing this data in several forms, one of them will be a part of our L3 documentation. Technology: HandleBars.js or similar, plus some YAML technology |

netlink interface for ethtoola project by mkubecek There seems to be an overall consensus that the ioctl interface used by ethtool is a poor design as it's inflexible, error prone and notoriously hard to extend. It should clearly be replaced by netlink and obsoleted. Unfortunately not much actual work has been done in that direction until this project started. The project started in Hackweek 16 (fall 2017) and has been worked on since, both in Hackweek 17-19 and outside. First two parts of kernel implementation are in mainline since 5.6-rc1, first part of userspace implementation (ethtool utility) has been submitted to upstream at the end of Hackweek 19 (2020-02-16). |

Another try on minimalistic C widget librarya project by metan I've attempted this several times already and each attempt had different shortcomings. I'm kind of curious about how exactly will I fail this time. And it looks like I haven't failed this time. |
Easy openSUSE Upgradea project by maverick74 The idea is about an easy way to allow users to make upgrades (e.g.: changing from one major version like 15.0 to version 15.1) using a GUI and as easy as they can in Ubuntu. Something like a notification with a button to perform the upgrade with just one-click, instead of having to deal with the terminal, that frights some new users and gives them the sensation of an outdated system. |

PXEAT - A PXE management toola project by whdu PXEAT (stand for PXE Administration Tool) is a tool to easily deploy and manage PXE service. It's NOT a tool for automatic deployment. It can enable user to add their own PXE items by themselves, but of course, very limited for security reasons. The tool will be developed with the light-weight framework - flask, as well as a sqlite database. |
gfxboot for grub2a project by snwint Make a final attempt to implement a graphical user interface for grub2 (gfxboot2).It's quite some work, unfortunately. Here's what's done so far: |

crash-pythona project by jeff_mahoney New Development In previous hack weeks, the first few days ended up being wasted on just getting it working. I'm pleased to share that the code quality has improved dramatically since the last hack week and there are now extensive test cases for both unit testing and testing against real vmcores, and we'll use both mypy and pylint (if installed) to perform static analysis. Packages for those are available in openSUSE or as part of the crash-python OBS repo for SLE15. It has been tested with kernels from 3.0 to 5.1. |
