Machine Learning Training

an idea by johnvickyy

Intellipaat offers Machine learning training that mainly focuses on key modules such as Python, Algorithms, Statistics & Probability, Supervised & Unsupervised Learning, Decision Trees, Random Forests, Linear & Logistic regression, etc. Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides systems the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning focuses on the development of computer programs that can access data and use it learn for themselves.Machine Learning, as the name suggests, provides machines with the ability to learn autonomously based on experiences, observations and analysing patterns within a given data set without explicitly programming.

Investigate whether Kimchi server works on SLES

an idea by waynechen55

Kimchi is an HTML5 based management tool for KVM. It is designed to make it as easy as possible to get started with KVM and create your first guest. Kimchi manages KVM guests through libvirt. The management interface is accessed over the web using a browser that supports HTML5. Its installation and configuration does not adapt to work very well with SLES, although it fully supports openSUSE Leap.

Virtualization CI/Testing Work

There are a number of items related to doing Virtualization CI and testing which I have a hard time getting to during my day job. I'll take Hackweek as an opportunity to get at least a little out of my normal space and improve our methods. This mainly focuses on QEMU/KVM and some of the efforts and infrastructure I've already got in various states of development, or at least investigation. Part of this effort is to try to leverage what is available in this space upstream, and to focus on watching the state of CI as it exists upstream, not just in our shipping products.

Embellishment of Solid Ground's Web User Interface (WUI) via Bootstrap v4

a project by vstsironis

Solid Ground[1] is a powerful software tool, essential for the daily tasks of an L3 agent. Built upon Django framework[2], it greatly simplifies the storing and management of the needed information for orchestrating the various, tedious and sometimes quite complicated actions (steps) of the L3 process[3]. And although Solid Ground is significantly benefited by the utilization of Django's ORM (and other components such as Rest, views, etc.) and has very strong command line interfaces (l3t and Django admin's shell), it lacks a modern, user friendly, clean and with nice user experience (i.e. engaging) WUI! The purpose of the current project is to leverage Bootstrap - the world’s most popular framework for building responsive, mobile-first sites[4] - in order to enhance Solid Ground's WUI without disrupting its operational capability! In other words to apply a cleaner, more engaging look and feel that will not break Solid Ground's functions.

I've been playing 26 since I was very young, especially in the winter months, when it was too cold to go play outside. 26 is played by 2 players. Each player has a stack of 20 cards (all face-down, except for the top card), and 6 cards in their hand. The goal of the game is to get rid of all your cards by building flushes on the board. The first player to get rid of all their cards wins.

More significant HA cluster node wins fencing match under 2-node split-brain

a project by yan_gao

In a 2-node HA cluster without quorum server, since neither of the cluster nodes (partitions) has more than 50% votes in case of split-brain, we should configure corosync.conf to enable two_ndoe: 1, so that both nodes (partitions) will be granted "quorum". But there'll be potential fencing matches which could introduce double-fencing by chances. The current solution is using random/static fencing delays by configuring pcmk_delay_max/base parameters for stonith resources to prevent double-fencing.

The objective is to learn and setup LTSP server/service via our KIWI-ltsp and look a bit into container technology to have the process automated in a (presumably) docker container. That will help a lot in migrating the LTSP server to a different PC or creating new instance almost effortlessly.

make "predictable network interface names" more predictable

an idea by mkubecek

Since the so-called "predictable names" for network interfaces were introduced, the concept and mainly its implementation has been a target of a lot of critique and sometimes even hate. On the other hand, similar idea works reasonably well for block devices. In my opinion, the main reason why "predictable names" reception was not nearly as good as for block devices is the difference in how the implementation works. For block devices, the device name provided by kernel is preserved and other names based on multiple naming schemes (by path, by UUID, by various device identifiers) are created as symlinks so that all of them (including the original kernel one) can be used simultaneously. On the other hand, network interface has only one name and as it is not represented by a file, symlinks cannot be used for aliases. Therefore even if there are multiple naming schemes (e.g. based on BIOS enumeration, bus address etc.), only one of them can be used for each network device and it's rather unpredictable which one is it going to be. Moreover, some of the generated names are rather long, ugly and inconveninent and unlike with block devices, one cannot just ignore them and use a different name (e.g. one provided by kernel).

Golan no vendor

a project by rjschwei

At present it is our practice to "vendor" all dependencies for a Golang package. This has the advantage that everything is in one nice package and self contained but it has the disadvantage that dependencies are hidden and therefore security issues may slip through the cracks. The idea is to investigate and create automation "go2rpm" that generates a spec file with the necessary "BuildRequires:" such that the dependencies can be broken into golang- packages and we get rid of the implicit dependency inclusion via "vendor". The potential problem is scale, with some golang applications having thousands of dependencies.

Modernize Mash deployment

a project by seanmarlow

Mash is a Python based CI/CD pipeline for automated testing and publishing of public cloud images. Currently the production and development deployment for the package is inconsistent, slow and manual. This is a barrier to rapid development, deployment and testing. It also means the development workflow is different than production. This can lead to production issues which were not seen during development. In order to modernize the Mash workflow I plan to spend the week digging into a plethora of tools to first learn then build out a new workflow. The goal is to simplify deployment by choosing tools that provide consistency, modularity and repeatability. By leveraging the best tools available we can harden the code and accelerate the release cycle.

Try to write simple rope-base Python language-server for LSP protocol

a project by mcepl

Future of tools supporting editors in dealing with particular languages is in my opinion in the LSP protocol. Therefore I look with a bit of worry on the fact that there is no good LSP server based on the top of rope. python-language-server uses it a bit internally, the Microsoft Language Server for Python is in C#, so it is completely something different. The goal of this project is to write a very simple nucleus of the LSP server based solely on rope for the language analysis and actions, which would be at least able to do “jump to the definition of a symbol”.

Home assistant that doesn't spy on you - developer's edition

a project by DKarakasilis

There are various home assistant solutions out there but all of them transfer your voice to some server for processing. This is a no-go for sane people although the technology is interesting and could be useful. There are various open source tools out there to achieve the same result but there is no turn key open source self hosted solution. The goal of this project is to implement a way to have a home assistant running locally - ideally with one command. The project that is closer to the desired result is Mycroft (https://mycroft.ai/). It is very easy to run the client side components using one docker command but their backend is running remotely. All the tools they use though are open source so it only needs one to do the work and package them in a nice little docker-compose file (https://mycroft-ai.gitbook.io/docs/about-mycroft-ai/faq#can-mycroft-run-completely-offline-can-i-self-host-everything).

Default web camera selector for GNOME

an idea by lkotek

There is no possibility to select default web camera at GNOME settings, but we can easily run into an environment with multiple cameras (integrated and the external one). As a result we can only select web camera if certain application allows us to do so via menu provided by the same application. This could be a problem, because not all applications do so - for example Firefox automatically selects first available camera on the system. This project aims to find suitable way for adding this functionality at GNOME level. For example via contribution to Tweaks tool (formerly known as a Gnome Tweak Tool) or other tool if necessary.

Lioncast RGB Keyboard user software, protocol reverse engineering

a project by rsimai

I recently bought a Lioncast LK200 RGB keyboard which is a nice piece of hardware and has exactly the look and feel I want. All basic functions work well under Linux. Unfortunately the manufacturer only provides user software to upload/download profiles and control the LEDs for Windows. The device can be configured and operates autonomously from any OS but color setup is a PITA and it's very easy to factory-reset, and lose all config. I approached them but Lioncast seems neither interested to support native Linux nor to provide protocol specs so one can implement it. I thought to take this as an example to learn about reading and reverse-engineering USB device software.

Add support for the new lockless printk ringbuffer into crash-python

an idea by pmladek

printk() is function that is used to print messages in the kernel code. The messages are stored into an internal buffer and show on the registered consoles. They could be read and stored by userspace when the system is running. The messages might not reach the console or userpace when the system crashes. One way to see them is reading them from a kernel crashump. crash-python is a semantic debugger for the Linux kernel. It is a very powerful tool for analyzing kernel crashdumps.

pacrunner for SUSE, and other proxy-related ideas

an idea by mwilck

I've got a small filtering proxy in our home LAN, used as a web filter for my kids. One most annoying mis-feature is that every time a Linux computer with a "modern" UI such as GNOME connects to the network, a popup window asks the user to enter "tickets" for my Fritz! box, although NM correctly sets up the proxy and net surfing is possible just fine. Currently the only workaround for this is to deactivate NM's "connectivity check" altogether. IMO that's not the right solution - if NM is able to detect and configure proxies for the system, it should also be able to use these proxy settings for its connectivity check. This touches on the fact that proxy configuration support is generally in a miserable state (not only) on Linux.

Modular maintenance and packaging of drivers

an idea by mwilck

We currently maintain all drivers in the SUSE kernel tree. While this is a well-established procedure, it also has a number of drawbacks in my opinion. I've been experimenting with a different model, tracking (so far, only one) driver in a separate git repository, and packaging it as kernel module package (KMP). This way of working fits my own mental model of code development better than the quilt style we employ in day-to-day driver maintenance.

Bluetooth audio

I'm hearing impaired. Where others have no issues following talks or dicussions, I often fail even grasp the bottom line what it's about. I've got hearing aids, but they help only so much. I also have an add-on device for my hearing aids that acts like a bluetooth headset. Unfortunately, making this thing work under my Linux desktop has been an ongoing, frustrating struggle. On the contrary, it works flawlessly with Android devices of different generations, and even with my lowly Gigaset phone. Actually, the thing works better with older kernels/Linux versions than with current TW. While I've little hope to solve the bluetooth audio issues on Linux for good, I hope at least to be able to understand better what's going wrong, and be able to slow down or even stop the deterioration I've observed lately.

Tool to help diagnosing stalling system

a project by jankara

Diagnosing issues with stalling desktop application (or a whole desktop environment) is difficult these days as the application often requires multiple processes interconnected with sockets, pipes, futexes, etc. to work and often it is not clear which process is the one responsible for blocking the whole ecosystem. The idea of this project is to write a tool that gathers information about processes in the system and for each process that is sleeping display the resource (file, socket, futex) it is waiting on as well as the process that is likely responsible for unblocking (feeding pipe, sending data to socket, unlock futex, ...). Once the information is gathered, we can also plot it for graphical displaying with tools like graphviz.

This has been working really well in the past, but is gradually reaching its limits, especially when thinking about supporting additional file systems or ports to other Linux distributions - yes, we have a huge interest in other distributions adopting our technology. A C++ version would simplify those abstractions, but would it also make maintenance of the complete application easier? Check that as part of a POC and refresh C++ knowledge on the way there.

Smart tool to show current K8s network performance

an idea by mosquetero

How cool would be it if a Sales Engineer could run a tool in the customer's site that measures the network performance to demonstrate how fast our K8s platform is? What if the customer could do that herself/himself to provide useful information to our support team in order to find the source of a bug? What about using such tool for our CI to discover potential performance regressions? What if the tool was smart enough to change configurations on the fly and run optional tests based on the measurements it collects? It is obvious there is a wide variety of use cases where we could benefit from such tool. I have been learning Kubernetes and go for a few months and now it is time to combine both! This tool will use a K8s controller that will create pods to do the measurements and then fetch the results. Based on those, it will decide to just return those values or change config and run extra tests.

Testing GUIs is hard: unit tests require a tremendous amount of mocking and often don't capture the exact user input anyway, integration tests on the other hand are difficult to setup as they often require a dedicated infrastructure with virtual machines. libuitest should become something like the image recognition part of openQA: it receives a video or image stream from some source and searches for matches (e.g. button found, sound played). It should also be able to send clicks, key presses, strings, etc. back via an abstract API to a backend.

"Physical" notifications with Raspberry Pi and addressable LEDs

a project by dannysauer

I'd like a way to have a device on my desk which lights up to indicate that I have something I should be paying attention to. Initially, I'd like this to be for Office365 calendar events and GitHub mentions, but ideally it should support arbitrary messages. The plan is to assign specific colors (ideally "patterns" consisting of a sequence of colors and time) to specific message types. I have a handful of raspberry Pi Zeroes, a couple of OLEDs, a strand of individually-addressable RGB LEDs, a power supply, and some misc electronics (like the 3.3-5v logic level shifter necessary for the 5v LED strand). I'm thinking Python is probably the way to go for the software. I'm hoping OpenSUSE actually works on the Pi zero. :D If not, there's an ESP32 with a built-in display and a few Pi 3s laying around barely used, maybe one of them will work.

Fix order of use co-operation between vlc and camsource applications

a project by dmair

Using the camsource and vlc packages as an example. If camsource is configured to use a given dev/video[n] device with a choice of resolution in the width and height fields of a camsource conf file then if camsource is the first application to access the device captured images are as-expected. However, if an application like vlc is used for the same device (and exited) before starting camsource (e.g. to check the view from the camera before starting camsource) and if the camera supports higher resolutions than used in the camsource configuration what occurs is that camsource will not setup the camera to use the configured resolution and has a broken view of the camera output based on the vlc chosen resolution chopped to the camsource configuration. For example, with camsource configuration set to use 640x480 on a camera that supports 720x480 and vlc is used and exited before camsource is started then the captured camsource images contain two non-continuous partial image blocks with a horizontal border dividing them. I assume either vlc fails to fully reset the device configuration when exiting or camsource fails to initialize the device "from scratch" when starting. The two applications use different video device APIs but the setup and cleanup for the camera in each case is a very limited part of the application's functionality.

Advanced online payment app for desktop

an idea by MDoucha

There are mobile payment apps which allow you to pay via QR code. But I couldn't find any app that would work on desktop e.g. via special URI. So here's my idea: Create a universal URI scheme for payments that can launch a handler app (just like mailto: URIs can open your e-mail client). This app could then send wire transfer instructions to your bank account via public internet banking API (if your bank has one). The app would also have a server-side e-shop module for payment processing which would allow instant checkout (if you bank supports instant wire transfers to the e-shop's bank account).

dmidecode: no more open-coded printfs

a project by jdelvare

There's a long standing request to extend the output of dmidecode to something that would be machine-readable. Something like an XML or JSON-based format. Unfortunately this can't be implemented right now because the output of dmidecode is generated by open-coded printfs as the DMI table is being parsed, with no intermediate structures nor temporary buffers. While implementing a machine-parseable output is out of scope for a single hack week, let's remember that even the longest journey starts with a single footstep. I would like to try and rewrite the 5200 lines of code of dmidecode in such a way that printing the output would be somewhat separated from parsing the DMI table and done by a limited set of dedicated functions. Alternative output formats could later hook into such functions.

Focus Friendly Desktop Adaptations

a project by wstephenson

Background

Given the number of different demands on our time and attention, it becomes increasing hard to focus and find the 'flow state' where a developer can be most productive. Interruptions due to chat notifications, email, and updater applets all break focus. Additionally, the desktop metaphor has in most cases failed to evolve as the browser and other MDI interfaces have become the focus for many users, and increased performance has allowed us to keep more tasks running and present on the desktop at once, presenting a higher cognitive load to the user.

HelenOS: <filesystem> of a down

a project by jjindrak

During the previous Hackweek [0], I have successfully implemented, tested and merged [1] an implementation of the entire C++ standard header <future>. This time, my aim is to modernize the C++14-esque standard library [2] of HelenOS [3][4] with a C++17 feature - the <filesystem> header. The <filesystem> header is much larger than the <future> header which I barely managed to implement and test in the allocated time for the previous Hackweek, but <future> was mostly OS-independent as it relied only on previously implemented features of the standard library. The <filesystem> header, however, is limited by the filesystem API of the OS and as such implementing of the entirety of it might not be possible, limiting the scope of the project (which is a good thing due to the time constraints). The primary features of the header [5] that should be implemented:

ethtool ops for netdevsim

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.

The project started in Hackweek 16 (fall 2017) and has been worked on since, both in Hackweek 17-19 and outside.

a 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.
