Try to model check gfp_flags with cbmc

a project by vbabka

Paul McKenney's blog article inspired me to try apply his approach to kernel's memory allocation flags (gfp_flags) and how their combinations affect the decisions and actions taken during page allocation. Recent upstream development around these flags leads me to believe that the complexity is too high for me to reason about them and change the code without unintended changes in semantics. So it might be worth to let the computer do the hard work.

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.

Set up a PXEboot service for installation in Developlent Networks in the SUSE Nuernberg Office

a project by eeich

PXE boot is a quick and easy way to install any SUSE/openSUSE product on a machine. It doesn't require any boot media and today virtually any system is capable of booting using PXE.

The architecture team maintains a tftp server with boot loaders, boot loader configurations and installation images for a variety of architectures and products. Currently in the Nuernberg office this PXE boot service is only available in the network of the architecture team. Since tftp is unicast, the server should be reachable from anywhere in the internal network. What is missing is the information about the address of the tftp server and the image to boot from this server.

OCFS2 optimization on hybrid storage investigation

an idea by ganghe

Nowadays, SSD (fast hard disk) is very popular, but still expensive. Some users want to use some SSD hard disks and some common hard disks to set up a hybrid storage infrastructure, in this case, how does OCFS2 file system utilize these SSD hard disks effectively? so far, we have not any particular optimization, OCFS2 considers these hard disks as one kind of hard disk. So, I want to investigate what we can do in improving OCFS2 under a hybrid storage infrastructure, let OCFS2 be able to aware fast hard disks, and use them more effectively.
