Running openATTIC and DeepSea on Multiple Distributions

ABSTRACT

At least a millennia ago, there was this interestingly odd fellow living in a small village in what would one day become the middle of nowhere. No one really knows what this fellow was up to during his days, but we know very well we have zero clue what he was doing during his nights. What is really interesting about this fellow is that he lived in a small village, and the village itself was so remote that it was completely cut-off from the world. The village itself became a self-sustaining cooperative organism, where every single individual contributed some of their to a broader cause: the survival and advancement of their small village.

Even though records found in a given blog's posts points to all the villagers being bound by a single-conscious organism at some point, and eventually being destroyed because one of them got the flu, for most of their existence they were individuals with different (and sometimes very specific) skills who tried to live their lives in the most boring way possible -- why is this relevant? We're not sure, but we are being told we don't need an abstract and we should instead be quite specific on what we add to the projects descriptions, instead of trying to create inspiring (but ultimately pointless) stories about why we need this.

MOTIVATION

In a nutshell, because "this is not nanowrimo", we want to have both openATTIC and DeepSea working on multiple distributions. Some would argue they already work in openSUSE and SLE, so multiple distros amiright??, but come on... -_-'

We need oA and DeepSea to be available in multiple distributions because

  1. we should share the love with the whole wide world; and,
  2. projects without strong, vibrant communities tend to stagnate, and die horrible deaths.

We don't want that. We want every single person in the world to be using openATTIC to manage and monitor Ceph, regardless of their distro affiliation card.

This will necessarily mean making sure oA and DeepSea properly work in at least CentOS and Ubuntu, as most of the Ceph community orbits around those two distributions - which is not a surprise, given Ceph packages were traditionally tested and built for ubuntu, eventually for CentOS.

    A CLI for Harvester by mohamed.belgaied

    [comment]: # Harvester does not officially come with a CLI tool, the user is supposed to interact with Harvester mostly through the UI [comment]: # Though it is theoretically possible to use kubectl to interact with Harvester, the manipulation of Kubevirt YAML objects is absolutely not user friendly. [comment]: # Inspired by tools like multipass from Canonical to easily and rapidly create one of multiple VMs, I began the development of Harvester CLI. Currently, it works but Harvester CLI needs some love to be up-to-date with Harvester v1.0.2 and needs some bug fixes and improvements as well.

    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: harvester vm create my-vm --count 5 to create 5 VMs named my-vm-01 to my-vm-05.

    asciicast

    Harvester CLI is functional but needs a number of improvements: up-to-date functionality with Harvester v1.0.2 (some minor issues right now), modifying the default behaviour to create an opensuse VM instead of an ubuntu VM, solve some bugs, etc.

    Github Repo for Harvester CLI: https://github.com/belgaied2/harvester-cli

    Done in previous Hackweeks

    • Create a Github actions pipeline to automatically integrate Harvester CLI to Homebrew repositories: DONE
    • Automatically package Harvester CLI for OpenSUSE / Redhat RPMs or DEBs: DONE

    Goal for this Hackweek

    The goal for this Hackweek is to bring Harvester CLI up-to-speed with latest Harvester versions (v1.3.X and v1.4.X), and improve the code quality as well as implement some simple features and bug fixes.

    Some nice additions might be: * Improve handling of namespaced objects * Add features, such as network management or Load Balancer creation ? * Add more unit tests and, why not, e2e tests * Improve CI * Improve the overall code quality * Test the program and create issues for it

    Issue list is here: https://github.com/belgaied2/harvester-cli/issues

    Update Haskell ecosystem in Tumbleweed to GHC-9.10.x by psimons

    Description

    We are currently at GHC-9.8.x, which a bit old. So I'd like to take a shot at the latest version of the compiler, GHC-9.10.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.

    Goals

    Have working builds of GHC-9.10.x and the required Haskell packages in 'devel:languages:haskell` so that we can compile:

    • git-annex
    • pandoc
    • xmonad
    • cabal-install

    Framework laptop integration by nkrapp

    Project Description

    Although openSUSE does run on the Framework laptops out-of-the-box, there is still room to improve the experience. The ultimate goal is to get openSUSE on the list of community supported distros

    Goal for this Hackweek

    The goal this year is to at least package all of the soft- and firmware for accessories like the embedded controller, Framework 16 inputmodule and other tools. I already made some progress by packaging the inputmodule control software, but the firmware is still missing

    Resources

    As I only have a Framework laptop 16 and not a 13 I'm looking for people with hardware that can help me test

    Progress:

    Update 1:

    The project lives under my home for now until I can get an independent project on OBS: Framework Laptop project

    Also, the first package is already done, it's the cli for the led-matrix spacer module on the Framework Laptop 16. I am also testing this myself, but any feedback or questions are welcome.

    You can test the package on the Framework 16 by adding this repo and installing the package inputmodule-control

    Update 2:

    I finished packaging the python cli/gui for the inputmodule. It is using a bit of a hack because one of the dependencies (PySimpleGUI) recently switched to a noncommercial license so I cannot ship it. But now you can actually play the games on the led-matrix (the rust package doesn't include controls for the games). I'm also working on the Framework system tools now, which should be more interesting for Framework 13 users.

    You can test the package on the Framework 16 by installing python311-framework16_inputmodule and then running "ledmatrixctl" from the command line.

    Update 3:

    I packaged the framework_tool, a general application for interacting with the system. You can find it some detailed information what it can do here. On my system everything related to the embedded controller functionality doesn't work though, so some help testing and debugging would be appreciated.

    Update 4:

    Today I finished the qmk interface, which gives you a cli (and gui) to configure your Framework 16 keyboard. Sadly the Python gui is broken upstream, but I added the qmk_hid package with the cli and from my testing it works well.

    Final Update:

    All the interesting programs are now done, I decided to exclude the firmware for now since upstream also recommends using fwupd to update it. I will hack on more things related to the Framework Laptops in the future so if there are any ideas to improve the experience (or any bugs to report) feel free to message me about it.

    As a final summary/help for everyone using a Framework Laptop who wants to use this software:

    The source code for all packages can be found in repositories in the Framework organization on Github

    All software can be installed from this repo (Tumbleweed)

    The available packages are:

    • framework-inputmodule-control (FW16) - play with the inputmodules on your Framework 16 (b1-display, led-matrix, c1-minimal)

    • python-framework16_inputmodule (FW16) - same as inputmodule-control but is needed if you want to play and crontrol the built-in games in the led-matrix (call with ledmatrixctl or ledmatrixgui)

    • framework_tool (FW13 and FW 16) - use to see and configure general things on your framework system. Commands using the embedded controller might not work, it looks like there are some problems with the kernel module used by the EC. Fixing this is out of scope for this hackweek but I am working on it

    • qmk_hid (FW16) - a cli to configure the FW16 qmk keyboard. Sadly the gui for this is broken upstream so only the cli is usable for now

    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

    Team Hedgehogs' Data Observability Dashboard by gsamardzhiev

    Description

    This project aims to develop a comprehensive Data Observability Dashboard that provides r insights into key aspects of data quality and reliability. The dashboard will track:

    Data Freshness: Monitor when data was last updated and flag potential delays.

    Data Volume: Track table row counts to detect unexpected surges or drops in data.

    Data Distribution: Analyze data for null values, outliers, and anomalies to ensure accuracy.

    Data Schema: Track schema changes over time to prevent breaking changes.

    The dashboard's aim is to support historical tracking to support proactive data management and enhance data trust across the data function.

    Goals

    Although the final goal is to create a power bi dashboard that we are able to monitor, our goals is to 1. Create the necessary tables that track the relevant metadata about our current data 2. Automate the process so it runs in a timely manner

    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.
