Support for the SMBus ARP protocol
a project by jdelvare
The SMBus standard specifies an address resolution protocol (SMBus ARP.) It has two key features :
crashsite
a project by alnovak
Examining vmcore with crash (very) often means to look at multiple outputs at once, which in console enviroment simply is not easily achievable. Since last hackweek, there is a
Implement BREAK for pseudo-terminals
a project by ptesarik
This will greatly enhance the usefulness of QEMU virtual serial ports, because the Linux kernel interprets a break on the serial console as a SysRq, but there is currently no way to pass this signal over a pseudo-terminal.
SUSE Bug Query Engine

In short, give second breath to http://hall.suse.de/bugs/defects.cgi.
Get the new SUSE Floor ready to use!

gdb-kdump
a project by alnovak
The goal of the project is making the gdb able to open compressed kernel dump - access its memory contents at the very least.

sysvinit-base
a project by wiederda
Package a basic, stripped down version of sysvinit for emergency cases, so you can repair a failed system without interference. My goal is not to replace systemd with sysvinit again, but to provide a sysvinit-base package that does not have any dependencies at all and can just be installed on any system. sysvinit will only be used in exception situations by specifying the kernel parameter "init=/sbin/init" or something like that. The package will come with the binary, a minimal inittab and a basic boot script that does only the really needed stuff.
Shell script merging for crash use on L3 Europe and NTS USA core dump servers
a project by dmair
Each of the core dump upload servers in Europe and USA could be improved if the shell scripts were combined so that the same tasks can be performed on each site, e.g. downloading of all packages needed for crash usage with a specified core dump by allowing for configurable (or even automated) selection of locations to obtain data packages from.
libkdumpfile/gdb-kdump improvements
a project by alnovak
gdb-kdump (and libkdumpfile) needs a plenty of improvements and tasks to be done. For HackWeek 13, Vlastimil chose to work on SLAB memory support, Petr, amongst other things, reorganized the libkdumpfile code and alnovak begun with libkdumpfile's ppc64 support. Our status in 4/5 of HackWeek 13:

Upstreaming of mediatek helios board
an idea by mbrugger
The only Mediatek "hacker" board available is from 96 Boards [1]. Unfortunately up to now there is nearly no mainline support. Idea would be to improve this situation. The idea would be to get the pin-controller merged first and then hopefully most of the other stuff can be just added (fingers crossed...)
Add u-boot support for banana-pi r2
a project by mbrugger
Banana-pi R2 has quite a good upstream support in the kernel, but lacks a u-boot support.

New office decoration
a project by mdeniz
As we have grown in our remote and non official office at Gran Canaria we had to rent another space. This new office is almost empty and we need a little bit of love to improve the sensation of relax and commodity while we do what we love most.
strace: add support for ioctl structure layouts
a project by mkoutny
strace can parse syscall arg structures and print them in user-friendly way. For ioctl
syscalls there is greater variety of the structures and not all are supported. Let's start with covering autofs data.
Simulate SD card in software
a project by algraf
To make OpenQA work with real ARM devices, we need to control
DRM driver for USB-based SiS graphics cards
a project by tdz
Back in the late 90s to early 2000s, SiS graphics chips were fairly common and found in many low-end devices. Today, the chips are still capable enough for simple graphics needs, but the graphics cards were on PCI and AGP buses. They are not usable in modern computers.
gfxboot for grub2
a project by snwint
Make a final attempt to implement a graphical user interface for grub2 (gfxboot2).
