openQA framework studying and improvement.an idea by bchou openQA is a set of utilities designed to test operative systems in an fully automated way. I would like to get started from the Tutorial and get familiar the whole process (openQA of webUI, auto-inst test modules, specific cases writing ) and detail framework. It would be accelerating the test cases creation in the future. |
Network team/libteam driver on openSUSEan idea by david_chang The NetworkManager has supported the team driver recently. Also Fedora had supported the network team driver in Fedora 18. |
Studying/playing around Cloud !!!an idea by Jeffreycheung I have 2 tasks would like to do at Hackweek 10. One is to study and then take the CompTIA Cloud Essentials certification. The other is to try install SUSE Cloud 2.0. |
UEFI on ARMan idea by gary_lin Aarch64 was added into UEFI spec recently, and the patches already landed into edk2. The goal of this project is to make an UEFI image to run on the Foundation Model and package Aarch64 edk2 in OBS, so that everyone can just download the latest image and play it. |
Enable python in crash and use it for most functionsan idea by jeff_mahoney Crash originated in a older version of gdb. Since then, gdb has added python to its scripting options. By converting much of the crash functionality to python, we can make it easier to extend existing functionality and allow our customers to do the same. |
Add MOKx for blacklisting any specific hash of kernel module (Hackweek 10 in Taipei)a project by joeyli Add MOKx for blacklisting any specific hash of kernel module. For kernel module sign function, similar to dbx in UEFI, we need a MOKx for blacklisting kernel module that can avoid direct revoke the modsign key in MOK or kernel. |
ohai plugin for querying details like serial numbers from hard drives in chef-client nodesa project by bigironman Gathering detailed information about hardware in an automated way with chef using an ohai plugin enhances transparency about the hardware being used in a datacenter. The idea is to write a plugin for ohai that gatheres information from hard drives used in a node that runs chef-client. |
Optimize packing of objects required for migration to new containera project by vuntz Moving objects to a new container is a problem everyone in R&D has faced at least once in his life. It requires a very advanced algorithm to pack the many different objects (which are generally heterogeneous, with different uses, types, weights and sizes), before the packs can then be transferred to the new container, generally through a dedicated bus. We can identify some usual cases: * In the worst case, the new container can be smaller than the old one, and a garbage collector is generally used to help find a solution that satisfies the problem (a SAT solver can be used to determine which objects should be destroyed). |
SUSE Manager/Spacewalk client debug/test shellan idea by dmacvicar When developing for SUSE Manager, it gets tiresome to setup clients in order to debug and test with clients. The idea is to create a nice shell (with history, command completion, colors) that allows to simulate being a client. |
Booting to btrfs snapshots with grub2a project by michael-chang The bootloader menu has to be able to list snapshots created with tagged attribute by snapper or other tools. These attributes control how snapshots are displayed and organized in the boot menu. All the changes are reflected in real time, that is when a snapshot is created it's ready to boot without the hassle to call grub2-mkconfig to refresh menu. The operation and navigating to the snapshot is intuitive and out of box and booting is even more easy to hit the button. The hackweek is based on current implementation to improve the code structure and testing, like code clean up and make it in better shape get upstreamed, improving the menu to use extended attribute to organize the boot menu with defined attributes which can be tagged by snapshot tools like snapper etc. |
