Create object oriented API for perl's YAML::XS module, with YAML 1.2 Support by tinita

Description

YAML::XS is a binding to libyaml and already quite old, but the most popular YAML module for perl. There are two main issues:

• It uses global package variables to influence behaviour.
• It didn't implement the loading of types like numbers and booleans according to the YAML spec (neither 1.1 nor 1.2).

Goals

Create a new interface which works object oriented. Currently YAML::XS exports a list of functions.

• The new API will allow to create a YAML::XS object containing configuration influencing the behaviour of loading and dumping.
  • It keeps the libyaml parser and emitter structs in memory, so repeated calls can save the creation of those structs
• It will by default implement the YAML 1.2 Core Schema, so it is compatible to other YAML processors in perl and in other languages
• If I have time, I would like to add the merge << key feature as an option. We could then use it in openQA as a replacement for YAML::PP to be faster.

I already created a proof of concept with a minimal functionality some weeks before this HackWeek.

Symbol Relations by hli

Description

There are tools to build function call graphs based on parsing source code, for example, cscope.

This project aims to achieve a similar goal by directly parsing the disasembly (i.e. objdump) of a compiled binary. The assembly code is what the CPU sees, therefore more "direct". This may be useful in certain scenarios, such as gdb/crash debugging.

Detailed description and Demos can be found in the README file:

Supports x86 for now (because my customers only use x86 machines), but support for other architectures can be added easily.

Tested with python3.6

Goals

Any comments are welcome.

ClusterOps - Easily install and manage your personal kubernetes cluster by andreabenini

Description

ClusterOps is a Kubernetes installer and operator designed to streamline the initial configuration and ongoing maintenance of kubernetes clusters. The focus of this project is primarily on personal or local installations. However, the goal is to expand its use to encompass all installations of Kubernetes for local development purposes.
It simplifies cluster management by automating tasks and providing just one user-friendly YAML-based configuration config.yml.

Overview

• Simplified Configuration: Define your desired cluster state in a simple YAML file, and ClusterOps will handle the rest.
• Automated Setup: Automates initial cluster configuration, including network settings, storage provisioning, special requirements (for example GPUs) and essential components installation.
• Ongoing Maintenance: Performs routine maintenance tasks such as upgrades, security updates, and resource monitoring.
• Extensibility: Easily extend functionality with custom plugins and configurations.
• Self-Healing: Detects and recovers from common cluster issues, ensuring stability, idempotence and reliability. Same operation can be performed multiple times without changing the result.
• Discreet: It works only on what it knows, if you are manually configuring parts of your kubernetes and this configuration does not interfere with it you can happily continue to work on several parts and use this tool only for what is needed.

Features

• distribution and engine independence. Install your favorite kubernetes engine with your package manager, execute one script and you'll have a complete working environment at your disposal.
  
• Basic config approach. One single config.yml file with configuration requirements (add/remove features): human readable, plain and simple. All fancy configs managed automatically (ingress, balancers, services, proxy, ...).
• Local Builtin ContainerHub. The default installation provides a fully configured ContainerHub available locally along with the kubernetes installation. This configuration allows the user to build, upload and deploy custom container images as they were provided from external sources. Internet public sources are still available but local development can be kept in this localhost server. Builtin ClusterOps operator will be fetched from this ContainerHub registry too.
• Kubernetes official dashboard installed as a plugin, others planned too (k9s for example).
• Kubevirt plugin installed and properly configured. Unleash the power of classic virtualization (KVM+QEMU) on top of Kubernetes and manage your entire system from there, libvirtd and virsh libs are required.
• One operator to rule them all. The installation script configures your machine automatically during installation and adds one kubernetes operator to manage your local cluster. From there the operator takes care of the cluster on your behalf.
• Clean installation and removal. Just test it, when you are done just use the same program to uninstall everything without leaving configs (or pods) behind.

Planned features (Wishlist / TODOs)

• Containerized Data Importer (CDI). Persistent storage management add-on for Kubernetes to provide a declarative way of building and importing Virtual Machine Disks on PVCs for

Saline (state deployment control and monitoring tool for SUSE Manager/Uyuni) by vizhestkov

Project Description

Saline is an addition for salt used in SUSE Manager/Uyuni aimed to provide better control and visibility for states deploymend in the large scale environments.

In current state the published version can be used only as a Prometheus exporter and missing some of the key features implemented in PoC (not published). Now it can provide metrics related to salt events and state apply process on the minions. But there is no control on this process implemented yet.

Continue with implementation of the missing features and improve the existing implementation:

• authentication (need to decide how it should be/or not related to salt auth)

• web service providing the control of states deployment

Goal for this Hackweek

• Implement missing key features

• Implement the tool for state deployment control with CLI

Bootstrap openSUSE on LoongArch by glaubitz

Description

LoongArch is a new architecture from China which has its roots in the MIPS architecture. It has been created by Loongson and is already supported by Debian Ports, Gentoo and Loongnix.

Upstream support for LoongArch is already quite complete which includes LLVM, Rust, Golang, GRUB, QEMU, LibreOffice and many more. In Debian Ports, where the port is called "loong64", more than 95% of the whole Debian archive have been successfully built for LoongArch.

QEMU support is rather complete and stable such that packages can be built in emulated environments. Hardware can also be requested by Loongson on request for free. Access to real hardware is also provided through the GCC Compile Farm.

Goals

The initial goal should be to add LoongArch to OBS and build a minimal set of packages.

Resources

• Introduction to LoongArch: https://docs.kernel.org/arch/loongarch/introduction.html
• LoongArch community on Github: https://github.com/loongarchlinux
• Debian Ports repository for loong64: http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-loong64/main/
• Gentoo stage3 for loong: https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/#loong

Results

• An initial set of packages for openSUSE loongarch64 has been successfully bootstrapped
• An OBS project has been set up to build packages for openSUSE loongarch64 with more than 3000 packages being built already
• A work-in-progress guide on how to bootstrap a new openSUSE port from Debian has been created
• A work-in-progress guide on how to add a new target to the openSUSE toolchain has been created

Acknowledgements

• Thanks to Adrian Schröter and Rüdiger Oertl for the help with setting up the FTP space and OBS project
• Thanks to Dirk Müller for the input on how to get started with a new port
• Thanks to Richard Biener for quickly accepting my submit requests to add loongarch64 support to the toolchain
