Project Description

At SCC, we have a rotating task of COOTW (Commanding Office of the Week). This task involves responding to customer requests from jira and slack help channels, monitoring production systems and doing small chores. Usually, we have documentation to help the COOTW answer questions and quickly find fixes. Most of these are distributed across github, trello and SUSE Support documentation. The aim of this project is to explore the magic of LLMs and create a conversational bot.

Project Description

Currently, much of the async code in the frontend parts of Uyuni suffers from susceptibility to out-of-order request issues, race conditions, etc. There are ways we can sidestep them for specific cases, but since it's created more than one L3 at this point it would be nice to address it in a general way.

Project Description

The goal is to first set-up hyprland on my own Aeon machine and after that creating an image in the OBS for re-use by others, preferably without Gnome in the installed packages.

TO DO

Project Description

The goal is to build a custom PCB and firmware for a smart meteostation with ESP32 at it's core. The board should have PoE available. Sparkfun Weather Meter Kit is used for the anemometer, wind vane and rain gauge.

Project Description

Currently a key rotation via fdectl regenerate-key is used to revoke all released tpm2 sealed keys. However the procedure can be a bit risky as the result to change key slots. Using tpm2 policynv may provide better approach in this regard given a counter or timestamp can be matched to validate tpm keys before using it.

Project Description

The key protector support in GRUB2 is on the way and it currently supports only TPM2. This project is aim to explore the possibility to extend the key protector to support Yubikey to store the LUKS key.

Project Description

After I start to do photography, I created a website as gallery to show my good photos (<https://gallery.alynx.one/&gt;), I don't want to host such a gallery on my own server because it's only some static images, and GitHub pages is perfect for it. But a easy to use way to submit photos and re-generate the webpage is needed. Currently I write a Telegram bot to do this, it is strange but useful, I don't need to write a whole CMS by hand, just listen to Telegram messages and call the render script.

Project Description

Let's write some friendly API that will allow WS2812-controlled LEDs to be addressed via RPC.

Project Description

People need to test operating systems and applications on s390 platform. Solutions include:

Project Description

Valgrind currently lacks support for 80-bit extended precision floating point arithmetic on x86_64 (long double). The current implementation uses 64-bit arithmetic instead, which means that programs running on x86_64 with "long double" give different results when running under Valgrind and natively. People were asking for support for this since like forever, but to date nobody went on implementing it. It's a project for a year, unless somebody has time to work on it full time, but one has to start somewhere. :-)

Project Description

The goal of this project is to create a tool to monitor changes in a log file or any text file between specific events in the system.

Ignition and combustion are the json configuration files used in SLE Micro/Leap Micro/Microos/ALP. These originated in Fedora CoreOS - so it is not distribution-specific.

Project Description

A small group of people has been designing a new programming language, Mangrove, for a while and we're now in process of writing the first iteration(s) of bootstrap compiler(s). Part of our efforts is to research if we could utilize WASM for the first bootstrapping step to make it easier to bootstrap on different platforms. The language won't be using LLVM or any other existing backend to generate the machine code. We're building the whole compiling process ourselves.

Introduction

When issues are found in software (being them security or not), it is not always trivial to find and keep track of all products and versions that could potentially be affected by them.

Project Description

critik8s aims to report critical error events that occur in Kubernetes clusters and therefore require manual user intervention.

My proposal for hack week is to dive into diagramming for the doc(s) team(s) as I've struggled to give it the decent block of time it needs. There are a few iterative parts:

Project Description

The idea is to create and internally host a simple webpage with proper backend code allowing quicker and easier lookup for package maintainers and bug owners from OSC. Nothing fancy, just a page with search box and few radio button parameters to execute the lookup and display the results. Obviously it needs to fulfill security measures when it comes to the access to OSC on the service level and also user access rights to the search page itself (e.g. Okta). Currently the lookup can be done via terminal (which is OK), but there are security measures in place which makes the lookup difficult for some and granting an engineering VPN access just for the sake of this OSC lookup is a bit an overkill for people that do not need it for any other purpose.

Project Description

SLEPerf containerize

Project Description

It is time to resurrect the dreaded green owl of legend, and return to learning some languages.

Project Description

You might recall that the SUSE (BCL) documentation team for HW21 offered a project called "EVERYONE can contribute to documentation – See how YOU can join the party". Even if this year, unfortunately, we are not able to host a live workshop event about documentation and how to interact with us, we would like to continuously push awareness that our invitation to contribute to open source and SUSE documentation NEVER expires :-).

Project Description

A small game in the style of Mini Motorways and Mini Metro but building a Computer Network.

Project Description

QEMU can serve host files using the 9P2000 protocol. Xen can serve host files using the 9P2000 protocol. Even WSL2 can serve files using the 9P2000 protocol. This makes it a perfect choice to make your kernel under development in your host environment available to your testing VM, right? Well, almost. GRUB2 cannot boot from a Plan9 filesystem share.

Since this will be my first real "from the start" publication the goal for me has more to do with the experience of publishing the projects, use of the public hosting site and access tools, particularly git. The projects that will be published are:

Logos Competition: openSUSE, Tumbleweed, Leap, Slowroll and Kalpa

The openSUSE Community is considering a new, distinct openSUSE logo to represent the project as well as four new logos for the following openSUSE distributions; Tumbleweed, Leap, Slowroll and Kalpa. There have been discussions of a new openSUSE logo over the years, but the timing to transition to a new logo wasn’t ideal, until now.

Project Description

When you have solar panels and your home energy consumption is below solar production, you might want to store the energy (or resell it to your energy company).

OBS studio is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. As SUSE Ambassador I do a lot of video creation and editing. As Open Source Ambassador I prefer to work with (F)OSS instead of some proprietary standards in the market.

Project Description

For many many years, OBS uses Cookies for authentication purposes. This is not really web application friendly and kind of insecure. For instance, all applications on *.opensuse.org domain that get a web request when you are logged into OBS, they get your authentication credentials too. Secondly, if you want to write a 3rd party tool, you can't just use another domain and do random API requests due to this legacy authentication method.

Problem

You have too much data and you are a data hoarder.

Project Description

Evaluate the various parental controls options to be used on Tumbleweed / Aeon, pick and choose one or more (depending on the needs) and make sure they are properly packaged on openSUSE Tumbleweed (if not available on Flathub) and can be integrated on a computer for a kid.

Project Description

Currently, Uyuni(SUSE Manager) offers a product migration feature, but it doesn't support migration from SLE to SLES4SAP. Users are required to run a separate script to perform this migration, which may not be ideal, especially if Uyuni is already installed. Additionally, the script's requirements vary with each service pack.

Project Description

It would be nice being able to "rebase" a MicroOS/Aeon/Kalpa installation. This can be useful, for example, to undo changes done manually with transactional-update shell, to try another variant (like replacing Aeon with Kalpa) and so on... but the goal of this project is mostly to get more knowledgeable with the MicroOS/ALP internals (tukit, snapper, et all) while doing something fun.

I have my favorite card game from childhood . Unfortunately description is available only in Russian https://uk.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%94%D0%B5%D0%B1%D0%B5%D1%80%D1%86%D1%8C . Currently my friends spreed across the globe and here in Germany no one except my wife knows the rules . I would like to to have ability to play this game with my friends like I did in school/univercity.

Project Description

Project Description

HAKube UI plugin for Rancher

Project Description

GNU Make has been a popular software tool used for automating simple build, test, and general source code management tasks for a long time. You'll find Makefiles in many software repositories – we use it on many projects as SUSE! For the most part, Make does its job, but often what people want to do with it is not exactly what it was designed for. Specifically, Make users often use Makefiles as a means a means of building out a set of commands that can be applied to their repository. But therein lies the problem: Make was not designed to build quick command line utilities at all, and it quickly becomes a nightmare as soon as the user wants to include arguments or options in their commands. The common alternative is simply to build out a tangled mess of build scripts.

Project Description

Just hook up a webserver framework for rust with things like opentelemetry for tracing, prometheus endpoint for monitoring, structured logging (to systemd) instead of line based logging.

Create a dashboard based on grafana running on raspberry pi3 Decided to scrap all the previous attempt for a dashboard for solar power generation graphs and going for a simpler version running grafana.

Initially, the Agama D-Bus service was written 100% in Ruby. For many things, it relies on YaST, so it makes sense to use the same language. It was great to have something working quickly, but it also had some drawbacks. The main problem is that, as YaST is not thread-safe, we separated the service into different processes (storage, software, localization, etc.). The system became most responsive but at the cost of eating a lot of RAM.

Moving to Rust

Make Rancher and NeuVector AWS QuickStart persistent across Shutdown.

Specifically update this AWS portion of the QuickStart to leverage Amazon Elastic IP Addresses, making the stack persistent across shutdowns startups. Designed to save budget when not using. While Terraform is designed to build and tear-down, sometimes we add additional customizations post-build which we want to be persistent for the next demo, PoC, or development experiment. Not losing the public IP assigned to cluster API, etc. would allow persistency across shutdown.

Project Description

> Tungsten is supposed to be a memory-safe and type-safe language front-end for LLVM which borrows many elements from C and C# syntax.

Kanidm is a identity management system (a store of accounts, groups and more) that supports authentication to opensuse, web sites, networks, and more. The project has a focus on respect of humans, correctness, simplicity and performance. In previous hackweeks we have implemented cryptographic authentication (webauthn), wasm based web UI, replication foundations and more.

Netbox-Sync

Imagine this, you are managing your infrastructure for your lab or server farm using the popular NetBox tool. Everytime you install a new machine you connect to it and collect all the system's information to enter into NetBox. Including stuff like system resources, architecture, vendor, type and all the network interfaces. Tedious isn't it?

Project Description

As Generative AI is everywhere around, we want to research its possibilities, how it can help SUSE, its employees and customers.

Project Description

Implement /rebuy-de/aws-nuke to make sure no resources are left in AWS after automated tests.

Project Description

I find myself often rerunning the same preprocessing tasks on perf captures, like one-liner scripts to merge/split per-cpu data, time-slice them, filter for specific events and finally plot charts (flamegraphs, heat map, ...). Each time one of these tools run perf-script, just loading 30s worth of events from a large machine can consume precious seconds in my modern laptop. The idea is to provide an interactive tool a la GDB and drgn where we can load the events once and manipulate them interactively to generate different visualizations.

Project Description

To put it simple, the goal of this project is to be able to publish any gstreamer input pipeline as a valid and discoverable ONVIF Camera device (i.e implementing profile S and maybe T).

Project Description

I recently used melange and apko to build a from scratch image. The result was a set of auditable and easy to use container and apk repository. The toolkit reduces the work need to make from scratch images with minimal work on the actual docker container(which can be quite painful if you've tried making a from scratch image on your own).

Project Description

Jobs in openQA are usually reviewed via the web UI. Inspecting os-autoinst logs requires significant insight into the inner workings. Tests run in a CI such as GitHub are thus not easy to debug.

Release v2.0 of the gem and dashboards TODO: https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb-rails/issues?q=is%3Aopen%20is%3Aissue%20project%3Ainfluxdata%2F118

Project Description

The openSUSE Project has a problem, not enough people are engaged in the development. In order to fix this, we need a less obscure way to learn about contributing. One of the ways to do that is enabling people to discover various open meetings that happen for planning of various areas of project progress.

Project Description

Device for connecting an electric guitar or bass to a computer via USB-C. It is basically just a glorified A/D converter, although with a twist. It can emulate proprietary commercial devices for use with applications such as Rocksmith. The name comes from the official device for Rocksmith, which is named Realtone Cable.

Project Description

Implement a checksum algorithm for BTRFS that uses and authenticated (keyed) hash. There are 2 cryptographically secure hashes supported by btrfs, sha256 and blake2b.

Project Description

The sar(1) tool, from the openSUSE package "sysstat", provides a comprehensive method for collecting performance data on a running system.

Project Description

We are currently at GHC-9.4.x, which a bit old. So I'd like to take a shot at the latest version of the compiler, GHC-9.6.x. This is gonna be interesting because the new version requires major updates to all kinds of libraries and base packages, which typically means patching lots of packages to make them build again. A significant part of the development effort will be live-streamed on Twitch so that others can collaborate easily.

Project Description

Harvester CLI is a command line interface tool written in Go, designed to simplify interfacing with a Harvester cluster as a user. It is especially useful for testing purposes as you can easily and rapidly create VMs in Harvester by providing a simple command such as:

A viewer for openQA jobs written in Qt.

Project Description

BPF verifier plays a crucial role in securing the system (though less so now that unprivileged BPF is disabled by default in both upstream and SLES), and bugs in the verifier has lead to privilege escalation vulnerabilities in the past (e.g. CVE-2021-3490).

Project Description

The old Cobbler webinterface was built into the server, leading to a huge dependency stack only required for a few people.

Project Description

When we experience a early boot crash, we are not able to analyze the kernel dump, as user-space wasn't able to load the crash system. The idea is to make the crash system compiled into the host kernel (think of initramfs) so that we can create a kernel dump really early in the boot process.

I'm running a simple home mirror, but I managed to get into a situation where I have to use a bunch of custom excludes. I think we should be able to offer what people want nowadays.\

Currently software.opensuse.org search is using the OBS binary search for everything, even for packages inside the openSUSE distributions. Let's switch this to use repomd data from download.opensuse.org

Project Description

SUSE dissolved an old warehouse, containing lots and lots of boxes with old SUSE / SuSE / S.u.S.E software. All of those boxes were originally going to be dumped in March 2021, which could be prevented.

Let's pick some old classic game, reverse engineer the data formats and game rules and write an open source engine for it from scratch. Some games from 1990s are simple enough that we could have a playable prototype by the end of the week. Write which games you'd like to hack on in the comments. Don't forget to check e.g. on Open Source Game Clones, Github and SourceForge whether the game is ported already.

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:

Idea is to have SUSE system with OpenZFS as root FS. Why ZFS
