EPEL 10 Overview

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

Carl George

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) is a yum repository of community

Shaun McCance 31af06
      maintained packages for use on CentOS Stream and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
Shaun McCance 31af06
      In EPEL 9, package maintainers were able to build against CentOS Stream 9 early
Shaun McCance 31af06
      to have packages ready before the RHEL 9.0 launch. For EPEL 10, the EPEL Steering
Shaun McCance 31af06
      Committee is planning on expanding that strategy to all minor versions of RHEL 10.

AlmaLinux: How we automated testing without inventing the wheel and instead improving it

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

Elkhan Mammadli

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

As the AlmaLinux OS Foundation, we take the testing seriously while pioneering

Shaun McCance 31af06
      on the speed of the delivery. When you have multiple major versions with the
Shaun McCance 31af06
      support of multiple architecutes, testing of a GNU/Linux distribution can be
Shaun McCance 31af06
      exhausting. One of the phase on our journey of testing was the automation. We
Shaun McCance 31af06
      will talk about the openQA and Testinfra as the technologies choice of us, the
Shaun McCance 31af06
      challenges we faced while adopting them and how we handled them with contributing
Shaun McCance 31af06
      back to upstream and Enterprise Linux ecosystem.

Briging the Gap: Packit automation for CentOS and upstream projects

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

František Lachman

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

Are you a package maintainer striving for a seamless integration with upstream

Shaun McCance 31af06
      projects? Are you an upstream project developer aiming to ensure your software
Shaun McCance 31af06
      functions flawlessly on CentOS Stream? Look no further – Packit is your solution!

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

Since the beginning of CentOS Stream, Packit has allowed developers to execute

Shaun McCance 31af06
      CentOS Stream RPM builds directly from their upstream changes. But that's just
Shaun McCance 31af06
      the beginning – delve into the possibilities of running tmt-based tests on a
Shaun McCance 31af06
      pristine virtual machine with the newly-built RPMs installed. This approach
Shaun McCance 31af06
      enables you to identify and address potential issues as they are introduced
Shaun McCance 31af06
      to the codebase, ensuring robust and reliable software when the new code
Shaun McCance 31af06
      reaches the user.

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

More and more projects are using Packit to automatically synchronise upstream

Shaun McCance 31af06
      releases to Fedora. And we are pleased to announce that the very same is now
Shaun McCance 31af06
      available for CentOS Stream as well!

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

In this talk, we will guide you through the functionalities Packit brings

Shaun McCance 31af06
      to the table specifically tailored for CentOS Stream. Discover how you can
Shaun McCance 31af06
      effortlessly enhance collaboration between upstream projects and CentOS
Shaun McCance 31af06
      Stream, fostering a more efficient and reliable development process.

It is time to gather a feedback!

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

CentOS Stream upstream and downstream communities rely on infrastructure bits

Shaun McCance 31af06
      provided by FreeIPA project. Fedora uses FreeIPA since 2017, providing the shared
Shaun McCance 31af06
      infrastructure together with the CentOS project.

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

FreeIPA team would like to hear a community feedback! At this session let us dive

Fabian Arrotin

Shaun McCance 6ce647
    

CentOS Infrastructure is heavily relying on Ansible for automation. Let's

Shaun McCance 6ce647
      summarize how we use it, where to find the roles, describe the modular
Shaun McCance 6ce647
      approach with multiple inventories (why and how) and how we maintain these.
Shaun McCance 6ce647
      Also how we use ARA to browse the ansible logs/reports.

Building And Utilizing Purpose-Built GNU/Linux Distribution Images Using Mkosi

Shaun McCance dd9d47
    

Akashdeep Dhar

Shaun McCance dd9d47
    

Mkosi is a tool in the Systemd software suite, facilitating the creation of

Shaun McCance dd9d47
      customized distribution images for various Linux bases like Fedora, Debian,
Shaun McCance dd9d47
      Ubuntu, Arch, Red Hat, Rocky, Alma, Gentoo, etc. It supports multiple system
Shaun McCance dd9d47
      architectures and deployment methods, offering finer control than alternatives
Shaun McCance dd9d47
      like Cloud-init and Ignition, using an INI-styled format for configuration.

How SIGs can facilitate contributions to the CentOS Stream kernel

Shaun McCance 8ff468
    

Paolo Bonzini

Shaun McCance 8ff468
    

The CentOS Stream kernel receives backports for thousands of upstream

Shaun McCance 8ff468
      commits every month. In this talk, I will show how CentOS SIGs can be
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      used to help testing and tracking future contributions to CentOS Stream,
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      helping to structure them into multiple merge requests for the CentOS
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      Stream kernel project on GitLab. The content of this talk are based on
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      the experience gained when developing a TDX-enabled kernel variant within
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      the Virtualization SIG.

The self-abolition of Enterprise Linux Distributions

Shaun McCance 8ff468
    

Dan Čermák

Shaun McCance 8ff468
    

Enterprise Linux Distributions have been caught in a downward spiral

Shaun McCance 8ff468
      for the past decade. The distributions have been steadily reducing
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      their package sets, as it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      packages in a faster moving ecosystem. This in turn renders enterprise
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      distributions less desirable as a deployment or a development target
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      and especially as a workstation. There is a growing realization that
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      the current release cadence and package maintenance workflow become
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      less suitable for the world where workloads are run as containers
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      based on non-enterprise distributions.

Shaun McCance 8ff468
    

What is the way out of this? How can enterprise vendors solve the

Shaun McCance 8ff468
      problem to remain relevant in a cloud native world? Will a more
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      modular distribution be the solution? Or perhaps the container
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      ecosystem, where everything is containerized, is the answer?

Testing the CentOS Hyperscale systemd backport with mkosi

Shaun McCance 8ff468
    

Daan De Meyer

Shaun McCance 8ff468
    

The CentOS Hyperscale SIG maintains a backport of the latest systemd.

Shaun McCance 8ff468
      This talk will discuss how we use mkosi to test this backport. mkosi is
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      the image building sister project of systemd
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      (https://github.com/systemd/mkosi).
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      We'll start with a brief introduction to mkosi before moving on to discussing
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      how we use it to test the backport. This involves locally building the systemd
Shaun McCance 8ff468

Shaun McCance 8ff468
      building initrd and system images including the newly build systemd rpms and
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      finally booting the resulting image with qemu. If there's time left, we'll
Shaun McCance 8ff468
      also discuss the SELinux policy module we maintain for the systemd backport.

Using PoI Tracker for Enterprise Linux preparedness and to audit your dependencies

Shaun McCance 408a93
    

Michel Lind

Shaun McCance 408a93
    

PoI Tracker is a tool intended to improve organizations' readiness to adopt

Shaun McCance 408a93
      the next major Enterprise Linux release, and also make it easier to track the
Shaun McCance 408a93
      packages they need - especially those community-maintained in the Extra Packages
Shaun McCance 408a93
      for Enterprise Linux repository as well as projects such as the Hyperscale SIG
Shaun McCance 408a93
      - and the dependency graph of these packages. This talk will cover both the
Shaun McCance 408a93
      rationale, the development of the tool itself, and some of its use cases.

Shaun McCance 408a93
    

In addition, having this information about not only the leaf packages organizations

Shaun McCance 408a93
      care about but also their dependencies, PoI tracker can be used to analyze the health
Shaun McCance 408a93
      of these dependencies (e.g. surfacing dependencies that have major unfixed bugs, have
Shaun McCance 408a93
      only a single maintainer) as well as their criticality (e.g. surfacing packages that
Shaun McCance 408a93
      it turns out is used by many leaf packages) - organizations can then hopefully use
Shaun McCance 408a93
      this information to invest resources in this (e.g. helping with packaging, contributing
Shaun McCance 408a93
      code fixes, or funding the development)

Shaun McCance 22922c
    

During the last year a new mechanism to deploy OpenStack has been created

Shaun McCance 22922c
      in the OpenStack Kubernetes Operators project
Shaun McCance 22922c
      (https://github.com/openstack-k8s-operators/).
Shaun McCance 22922c
      In this session we are going to share update about our ongoing work on
Shaun McCance 22922c
      adopting this project for testing and deploying RDO repositories. We will
Shaun McCance 22922c
      provide a high level overview of the architecture and concepts behind this
Shaun McCance 22922c
      model and also share some ideas about CI usage and community-friendly way
Shaun McCance 22922c
      of deploy full stack RDO.

Shaun McCance 22922c
      but with new content with updated information.

Shaun McCance 22922c
    

We will speak about newer projects such as initoverlayfs, maybe our work

Shaun McCance 22922c
      with Texas Instruments.

Shaun McCance 22922c
    

In the new year, we will meet with Red Hat Automotive people internally

Shaun McCance 22922c
      and the CentOS Automotive SIG community externally to decide what content
Shaun McCance 22922c
      we present.

Shimon Shtein

Shaun McCance 744083
    

I would like to introduce the Foreman project that deals with provisioning,

Shaun McCance 744083
      configuration management and configuration monitoring aspects of datacenter
Shaun McCance 744083
      management. This project allows to manage systems no matter the deployment
Shaun McCance 744083
      architecture: physical, virtual or on-cloud. It allows a single pane of glass
Shaun McCance 744083
      for most management aspects of the infrastructure.

Nicola Sella

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

Are you an RPM packager? Do you work with packages downstream? Do you

Shaun McCance 31af06
      have experience with automation and build systems, or are you just
Shaun McCance 31af06
      learning how to approach this world?

Shaun McCance 31af06
    

Whether you work with Fedora, CentOS, Enterprise solutions or other RPM

Shaun McCance 31af06
      environments, join me to discuss the state of packaging in the domain of
Shaun McCance 31af06
      RPM-based distributions. This will be an opportunity to connect with
Shaun McCance 31af06

Both beginners and experienced packagers will be able to introduce

Shaun McCance 31af06
      themselves, share their experiences with different RPM systems, and
Shaun McCance 31af06
      learn from each other. There is no set plan or schedule. Everybody is
Shaun McCance 31af06
      welcome, and we will have an open discussion. Bring a topic or question
Shaun McCance 31af06
      you would like to discuss and meet the people that work behind the spec
Shaun McCance 31af06
      files.

Shaun McCance 1ebc72
      Interest Groups family, focused on making it easier to react on updates in
Shaun McCance 1ebc72
      the CentOS Stream and integrate third-party CI services to provide feedback
Shaun McCance 1ebc72
      and test results on changes.

Shaun McCance 1ebc72
    

This is the first meetup for the group and our main goals would be to learn

Shaun McCance 1ebc72
      about each others use-cases and brainstorm the work items.

Shaun McCance 1ebc72
    

The highlight of this year will be the introduction of the TMT tool to manage

Shaun McCance 1ebc72
      CentOS compose tests, see
Shaun McCance 1ebc72
      the MVP.
Shaun McCance 1ebc72

Packaging Workshop

Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
    

Carl George

Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
    

In this workshop, attendees will learn how to package software using RPM,

Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
      the native packaging format for Fedora, CentOS Stream, and Red Hat Enterprise
Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
      Linux. They will write RPM spec files, build software from source code into
Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
      RPM packages, run quality checks on RPM packages, and install the packaged
Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
      software.

Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
    

The only prerequisite for the workshop is basic command line familiarity,

Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
      such as navigating directories and editing files.  Attendees should bring
Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
      their own laptop to the workshop.  The hands-on portion of the lab is
Shaun McCance 5ff7b7
      web-based and can be completed from any operating system with a web browser.
