SUMMARY:OLF (Ohio LinuxFest)
DESCRIPTION:OLF (formerly known as Ohio LinuxFest)\, which will take place at the Hyatt Regency Columbus on December 3 and 4\, is a grassroots conference for the GNU/Linux/Open Source Software/Free Software community that started in 2003 as a large inter-LUG (Linux User Group) meeting and has grown steadily since. It is a place for the community to gather and share information about Linux and Open Source Software. \nKate Stewart\, Vice President of Dependable Embedded Systems\, will be on-site to give a keynote titled “Hobbyist Code Goes to Mars.” \nThirty years ago\, Linus Torvalds announced the start of what would become the Linux kernel\, and later explained some of his thinking in a book – “Just for fun: The Story of an Accidental Revolutionary” .   Linux has since evolved to be one of the most important open source projects in history for embedded applications.   Along similar lines\, OpenEmbedded started off as a hobbyist project targeting handhelds\, and evolved into the Yocto Project which is behind the scenes all around us.    Both projects are part of the open source software stack that Ingenuity is running on Mars today.   They illustrate the need for embedded applications to focus on getting things right – bugs are a lot harder to fix on Mars than they are on your desktop here on earth.  Incorporating software engineering best practices that have been learned since the early Apollo space mission is the next big challenge for all of us interested in creating safety critical embedded systems based on open source that we can all depend on\,  on this planet\, and others! \nRegister for the conference here or see the complete schedule on the main event website here.

SUMMARY:ELISA March Seminar: Real-time Linux Analysis Toolset
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, March 16 at 10-11 am PT\, the ELISA Project will host a seminar focused on the Real-time Linux Analysis Toolset. ELISA community member Daniel Bristot De Oliveira\, Senior Principal Software Engineering at Red Hat\, will present the tools provided by rtla. \nNo registration is needed. See below for the dial-in details. \n \nMarch Seminar Description: \nFrom 5.17\, Linux includes a new tool named rtla\, which stands for Real-time\nLinux Analysis. The rtla is a meta-tool that consists of a set of commands that\naims to analyze the real-time properties of Linux. But instead of testing Linux\nas a black box\, rtla leverages kernel tracing capabilities to provide precise\ninformation about the properties and root causes of unexpected results. \nIn this talk\, Daniel will present two tools provided by rtla. The timerlat tool\nused to measure IRQ and thread latency for interrupt-driven applications\n(important for the PREEMPT_RT kernel)\, and the osnoise tool used to evaluate the\nability of Linux to isolate\, from the scheduling perspective\, a workload from\nthe interferences from the rest of the system. The presentation also includes\nexamples of using the tool to find the root cause of unexpected latencies and\nhow to collect extra tracing information directly from the tool. \nDial-in details:\nClick here: https://zoom.us/j/97352810790?pwd=QzJPVEliaVZjMnRBaUJOQnIvRW16QT09\nMeeting ID: 973 5281 0790\nPasscode: 119310 \n

SUMMARY:ELISA June Seminar: What is a page table and why should we care about it?
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Thursday\, June 16 at 10 – 11 am PT for the next ELISA Monthly Seminar.  Khalid Aziz\, Senior Software Engineer from Oracle\, will give a presentation titled\, “What is a page table and why should we care about it?”  \nZoom details: https://zoom.us/j/92556635496?pwd=eUtzdUxFdzdaK3IyL25KZmgyT3hUQT09 \nPhysical memory on a computer is a shared resource. Kernel allocates and reclaims this shared resource to ensure all workloads on a system have adequate resources to complete their tasks. Accurate management of physical memory assignment is required for fairness and data safety. This is the task of Memory Management subsystem in the Linux kernel. We will discuss how the Memory Management subsystem assigns and tracks physical memory\, how it ensures isolation between unrelated workloads and how it enables sharing of data in memory for workloads that need it. We will discuss the management overhead associated with isolation and dive deeper into  specific approaches on managing overhead for effective sharing. \n

SUMMARY:Embedded Linux Conference (Austin\, TX + Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:This year\, Open Source Summit North America is the premier event for open source developers\, technologists\, and community leaders to collaborate\, share information\, solve problems\, and gain knowledge\, furthering open source innovation and ensuring a sustainable open source ecosystem. It is the gathering place for open-source code and community contributors. Open Source Summit is a conference umbrella\, composed of a collection of events covering the most important technologies\, topics\, and issues affecting open source today – including Embedded Linux Conference and Critical Software Summit. \nTo register for the event for an in-person or virtual attendance\, click here on the main event site. \nThe ELISA Project will be represented in several sessions at the conference. \nOn Wednesday\, June 22:  \n1:45 -2:25 pm: Enabling Linux in Safety Applications (panel discussion) \nModerator: Jeffrey Osier-Mixon\, Red Hat (ELISA Ambassador) \nPanelists: Gabriele Paoloni\, Red Hat (ELISA board chair) Kate Stewart\, Linux Foundation (ELISA Executive Director) Paul Albertella\, CodeThink (Open Source Engineering Process) Elana Copperman\, Intel (Linux Features) Philipp Ahmann\, Bosch GmbH (Automotive) Milan Lakhani\, Codethink (Medical Devices)  \nMeeting business and safety objectives while building safety critical applications is a huge challenge for any industry\, particularly those who have not had previous experience with open source and Linux. ELISA’s charter is to help industries navigate technical and non-technical challenges in order to bring the benefits of open source to safety applications and help organizations provide the rigor needed for certification. This panel features ELISA working group leads who will share their vision of making Linux a prominent player for FuSa applications in several industries. Join us to learn more about the project and how you can contribute to the community’s overall success. Add this to your schedule here. \n1:45 – 2:25 pm: Finding the Path from Embedded to Edge using Product Lines \nSpeakers: Steffen Evers\, Bosch.IO & Philipp Ahmann\, Robert Bosch GmBH \nLinux is used for many embedded device classes today. However\, it is increasingly desirable to connect these devices with each other and with the cloud. Embedded container technology can be used to make this easier by merging server/cloud and embedded technologies. However\, it also leads to more challenges e.g. in respect to security\, safety\, traceability\, and SBOMs. Using Linux across multiple device classes and product lines\, and adding cloud technology\, causes the complexity and efforts to explode. \nIn this talk\, we describe how Bosch\, and others\, use embedded containers and “reference systems” to avoid redundant work and get a large number of embedded projects under control. \nA reference system is an adjustable compilation of tools along with a pre-configured bundle of packages for a common use case and defined set of devices. This reuse significantly reduces development and maintenance costs\, and speeds up the time to market. In this way\, reference systems can form the base for your product lines. \nBosch uses the in-house Debian-based embedded distribution “Apertis” as the basis for several reference systems\, e.g. for automotive infotainment systems. In doing so we push as many efforts as possible from individual projects into Apertis\, as the meta-layer. Thereby\, the users can focus more on the actual functionality and applications. e.g. one issue that we have addressed in the context of software management is the handling of GPLv3 in embedded devices. Another topic has been mainline support for kernel drivers. \nAdd this to your schedule here. \nOn Thursday\, June 23:  \n1:15-1:35 pm: Ask the Experts Session with Kate Stewart on SPDX\, Safety Critical Software & Embedded Systems \nSit down with open source experts to gain knowledge 1:1 and ask all your pressing questions! No sign-up necessary – just stop by! \n2:05-2:45 pm: BOF: SBOMs for Embedded Systems: What’s Working? What’s Not? \nWith the recent focus on improving Cybersecurity in IoT & Embedded\, the expectation that a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) can be produced\, is becoming the norm. Having a clear understanding of the software running on an embedded system\, especially in safety critical applications\,  like medical devices\, energy infrastructure\, etc. has become essential.  Regulatory authorities have recognized this and are starting to expect it as a condition for engagement.  This BOF will provide an overview of the emerging regulatory landscape\, as well as examples of how SBOMs are already being generated today for embedded systems by open source projects such as Zephyr\, Yocto and others\,  followed by a discussion of the gaps folks are seeing in practice\, and ways we might tackle them. \n\n2:55-3:35 pm: Static Partitioning with Xen\, LinuxRT\, and Zephyr: A Concrete End-to-end Example – Stefano Stabellini\, AMD \n\n\nStatic partitioning enables multiple domains to run alongside each other with no interference. They could be running Linux\, an RTOS\, or another OS\, and all of them have direct access to different portions of the SoC. In the last five years\, the Xen community introduced several new features to make Xen-based static partitioning possible. Dom0less to start multiple static domains in parallel at boot\, and Cache Coloring to minimize cache interference effects are among them. Static inter-domain communications mechanisms were introduced this year\, while “ImageBuilder” has been making system-wide configurations easier. An easy-to-use complete solution is within our grasp. This talk will show the progress made on Xen static partitioning. The audience will learn to configure a realistic reference design with multiple partitions: a LinuxRT partition\, a Zephyr partition\, and a larger Linux partition. The presentation will show how to set up communication channels and direct hardware access for the domains. It will explain how to measure interrupt latency and use cache coloring to zero cache interference effects. The talk will include a live demo of the reference design. Add this to your schedule here.

DESCRIPTION:The Linux Plumbers Conference is the premier event for developers working at all levels of the plumbing layer and beyond. \nTaking place on Monday 12th\, Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th of September\, this year we will be both in person and remote (hybrid).  However to minimize technical issues\, we’d appreciate most of the content presenters being in-person. The conference will also be live streaming all tracks for free and viewers of the live stream will be able to use the matrix chat to interact with the in person and virtual audiences. \nThe in-person venue is the Clayton Hotel on Burlington Road\, Dublin. Register here. \nELISA will be featured in these two MicroConferences (in European time zone): \nMonday\, September 12 at 10 am-1:30 pm: Kernel Testing & Dependability MC\nThe Linux Plumbers 2022 Kernel Testing & Dependability track focuses on advancing the current state of testing of the Linux Kernel and its related infrastructure. The main purpose is to improve software quality and dependability for applications that require predictability and trust. We aim to create connections between folks working on similar projects\, and help individual projects make progress. \nThis track is a merge of the Linux Plumbers 2021 Testing and Fuzzing and the Kernel Dependability and Assurance MC tracks into a single session. These two tracks have a lot of overlap in topics and attendees. A dependable kernel is the goal of testing it and combining the two tracks will promote collaboration between all the interested communities and people.\nWe ask that any topic discussions focus on issues/problems they are facing and possible alternatives to resolving them. The Microconference is open to all topics related to testing on Linux\, not necessarily in the kernel space. \nPotential testing and dependability topics: \n\nKernelCI: Improving user experience and new web dashboard\n(https://github.com/kernelci/kernelci-project/discussions/28)\nGrowing KCIDB\, integrating more sources (https://kernelci.org/docs/kcidb/)\nBetter sanitizers: KFENCE\, improving KCSAN. (https://lwn.net/Articles/835367/)\nUsing Clang for better testing coverage: Now that the kernel fully supports building with clang\, how can all that work be leveraged into using clang’s features?\nHow to spread KUnit throughout the kernel?\nBuilding and testing in-kernel Rust code.\nIdentify missing features that will provide assurance in safety critical systems.\nWhich test coverage infrastructures are most effective to provide evidence for kernel quality assurance? How should it be measured?\nExplore ways to improve testing framework and tests in the kernel with a specific goal to increase traceability and code coverage.\nRegression Testing for safety: Prioritize configurations and tests critical and important for quality and dependability.\nTransitioning to test-driven kernel release cycles for mainline and stable: How to start relying on passing tests before releasing a new version?\nExplore how do SBOMs figure into dependability?\n\nSpeakers: \n\nSasha Levin \nGuillaume Tucker \nShuah Khan (The Linux Foundation) \nKate Stewart (Linux Foundation)\n\nMonday\, September 12 at 3-6:30 pm: Kernel Memory Management MC\n\n\nCurrent problems of interest to kernel developers who focus on memory management:\n– Multi-generational LRU vs traditional LRU\n– Do we need three different slab allocators?\n– How far do we take the folio conversion?\n– Can we handle page pinning and page mapcount more effectively?\n– How can we effectively cache reflinked files?\n– Can we support 1GB pages other than through hugetlbfs?\n– How should we handle memory failures better? \nMore problems will undoubtedly present themselves before the start of the conference. \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\nMatthew Wilcox (Oracle) \nVlastimil Babka (SUSE Labs)

SUMMARY:ELISA Seminar: PREEMPT_RT - How not to break it
DESCRIPTION:Join the ELISA community on Tuesday\, October 11 at 8-9 am PT for the next ELISA Monthly Seminar. Sebastian Siewior from Linutronix will present  “PREEMPT_RT – how not to break it.” \nThe PREEMPT_RT patch set has only a handful patches left until it can be enabled on the X86 Architecture at the time of writing. The work has not finished once the patches are fully merged. A new issue is how to not break parts of PREEMPT_RT in future development by making assumption which are not compatible or lead to large latencies. Another problem is how to address limitations on PREEMPT_RT like the\nbig softirq/ bottom halves lock which can lead to high latencies. \nSeminar Details:\n\nDate: Tuesday\, October 11\nTime: 8-9 am PT/11 am-12 pm ET\nFrom computer: https://zoom.us/j/99630105397?pwd=UWFEUXNpdjgyQTVCRTJTU1kwVklQdz09\nFrom phone: 855-880-1246 (tool free US number) or view international numbers https://zoom.us/u/abv3wJnVJ8\nMeeting ID: 996 3010 5397 Passcode: 911719

It is the gathering place for open source code and community contributors. Register here. \nOpen Source Summit is a conference umbrella\, composed of a collection of events covering the most important technologies\, topics\, and issues affecting open source today. At Open Source Summit Japan\, those events include: LinuxCon\, CloudOpen\, Automotive Linux Summit\, Open AI + Data Forum\, OSPOCON\, CONTAINERCON\, Critical Software Summit\, Community Leadership Conference\, Emerging OS Forum and Embedded IoT Summit.  \nELISA will be represented on-site at the conference in several sessions including: \nMonday\, December 5 at 11-11:40 am: Elements Towards Functional Safety Use Cases with Linux in Automotive – Philipp Ahmann\, Product Manager at Robert Bosch GmbH and Chair of the ELISA Project Technical Steering Committee\nLinux is common sense in Automotive; for infotainment\, display clusters or gateways. Centralization of embedded control units increase the demand of mastering complexity of large vehicle computers. Functional safety becomes more and more important. As part of instrument clusters\, warning signs (so called tell tales) are an ideal entry point to address safety criticality in Automotive use cases. Their demands to the operating system help to explain the way forward towards more complex use cases from the domain of e.g. driver assistance.  \nThis talk will describe elements needed to enable Linux in safety critical automotive use cases based on the tell tale use case as addressed within the Linux Foundation’s ELISA project. It shows similarities and differences to other use cases like park distance control or surround view and supports the the Automotive Grade Linux instrument cluster. By setting the use case into a wider system context of a centralized vehicle computer architecture\, it allows adopters a step-by-step approach to enable Linux in safety critical applications and increase the responsibility of Linux in smaller chunks. An overview of the activities within the other ELISA project working groups and their relation to the automotive working group completes the talk. Add this to your schedule here. \nTuesday\, December 6 at 10-10:20 am: Keynote – Kate Stewart\, Vice President of Dependable Embedded Systems at the Linux Foundation\nKate’s keynote will feature ELISA. \nWednesday\, December 7 at 9 am – 12:30 pm: ELISA Mini-Summit (pre-registration required)\nEnabling Linux in Safety Applications (ELISA) aims to create a shared set of tools and processes to help companies build and certify Linux-based safety-critical applications and systems whose failure could result in the loss of human life\, significant property or environmental damage. \n9:00 – 10:00 am – ELISA Project Overview\nJoin the ELISA mini summit for an overview of the ELISA project\, the activities of the various working groups (WGs) and how the WGs interact and work together to tackle the challenges in advancing open source in safety-critical systems and bridge the gap between functional safety and Linux kernel development velocity. \n10:00 – 10:15 am – Break (refreshments will be served) \n10:15 – 11:00 am – Systems Working Group deep-dive\nTake a deeper look into the Systems WG launched this year. Many products across various industries share the same architectural elements\, including container technologies\, RTOS requirements\, or virtualization. This demands safety analysis at the system level. Understand why and how this WG is exploring the implications of using Linux in those mixed criticality systems by creating a reference system for further analysis. Learn also about collaboration with other open source communities such as AGL\, Xen\, and SPDX. \n11:00 – 11:45 am – Automotive Working Group\nUsage of Linux is common sense in many Automotive use cases such as infotainment\, display clusters\, or gateways. This session will describe elements needed to enable Linux in safety critical automotive use cases starting with warning signs of instrument clusters\, also known as tell tales\, and going forward the evolutionary path towards more complex use cases such as driver assistance. By framing use cases in a wider system context of a centralized vehicle computer architecture\, it allows adopters a step-by-step approach to enable Linux in safety critical applications and to increase the responsibility of Linux in smaller chunks. \n11:45am – 12:00 pm Open Discussions\nStick around for open discussions and Q&As with the speakers.

SUMMARY:Open Source Summit North America (Vancouver\, Canada)
DESCRIPTION:Open Source Summit is the premier event for open source developers\, technologists\, and community leaders to collaborate\, share information\, solve problems\, and gain knowledge\, furthering open source innovation and ensuring a sustainable open source ecosystem. It is the gathering place for open-source code and community contributors. Join us for the Open Source Summit North America\, hosted in Vancouver\, Canada\, and virtually on May 10-12. \nELISA will be represented in a few presentations including: \nWednesday\, May 10 at 11:10 – 11:50 am: How Do You Know You’re Done – After a Security Fix? – Kate Stewart\, The Linux Foundation & Peter Brink\, UL Solutions \nRequirements are at the heart of designing a system with safety considerations. When building the system\, having a detailed and accurate record of all the components and build information is necessary for safety analysis. When a component vulnerability fix comes in though\, how do you know the system conforms with the safety claims after applying the fix? This talk will go into some approaches for leveraging the SBOM data to improve the automation and confidence in the analysis necessary to know you’re done. Add this to your schedule here. \n\n\nWednesday\, May 10 at 12:05 – 12:45 pm: Reproducible Multi Element System Composition with Linux\, Xen & Zephyr – Philipp Ahmann\, Robert BOSCH GmbH \n\n\n\n\nLooking at system architectures for complex safety-critical systems\, similarities can be observed across various industries. Beside a rich OS (such as Linux)\, typically an RTOS and virtualization or containers are involved. However\, when it comes to prototyping such systems\, the existing guidelines are limited and reproducing demos is hard and time consuming. Compared to traditional (safety-critical) systems\, created by strictly following the v-model\, existing open source software can boost the system creation & understanding by fast and iterative prototyping. The ELISA project’s systems working group focuses on creating such an exemplary system architecture using Linux\, Xen and Zephyr in a reproducible form. This includes step-by-step documentation for users on different expert levels and various entry points to approach these systems. It also includes picking up new requirements such as a system SBOM and a strong interaction as well as collaboration with other open source projects. Beside the state of the previously mentioned activities\, the talk highlights other ELISA working groups focusing on Linux Kernel\, processes\, tools\, and use cases. A basic understanding about challenges and chances of using open-source projects for safety-critical workloads rounds up the talk. Add this to your schedule here.\n\n\nTo see all sessions or to register for the Open Source Summit North America\, visit the main conference website here.\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:ELISA Seminar: Automating Adherence to Safety Profiles After Fixing Vulnerabilities
DESCRIPTION:ELISA Project Seminar Series focuses on hot topics related to ELISA’s mission to define and maintain a common set of elements\, processes and tools that can be incorporated into Linux-based\, safety-critical systems amenable to safety certification. Speakers are members\, contributors and thought leaders from the ELISA Project and surrounding communities. Each seminar comprises a 45-minute presentation and a 15-minute Q&A\, and it’s free to attend. \nTitle: Automating Adherence to Safety Profiles After Fixing Vulnerabilities \nDate: Wednesday\, August 30\, 9:00-10:00 am PDT/12:00-13:00 pm EDT / 18:00-19:00 CEST \nSpeakers: Kate Stewart\, VP Dependable Systems\, The Linux Foundation\, Nicole Pappler\, AlektoMetis \nHow to attend: Register to attend for free. You will receive a confirmation email with the virtual access details upon registering. And don’t forget to add the event to your calendar from the confirmation email. \nAbstract: \nCreating a critical safe or secure system generally comes down to two aspects. The system has to be able to meet the technical expectations to handle its criticality and there needs to be evidence these expectations are actually met. With today’s software systems being built by integrating various software components\, more often using open source than custom proprietary solutions\, it’s obvious that having complete and reliable evidence that the software is created with criticality considerations\, such as safety profiles\, in mind is key. Demonstrating the technical capabilities of a system to achieve the safety and security qualities can be done by established analysis methods.  However\, proving that its process provides the systematic evidence that all has been implemented\, tested\, built and configured as required\, needs evidence of traceability from requirement to tests and release.  Typically this evidence is locked within proprietary tools\, never 100%\, needing manual tasks to prove traceability between items. With continuous changes due to security updates or continuous deploys\, managing this systematic evidence gets impossible. \nThis talk will present a model using SPDX\, that allows for automated checks for integrity and availability of evidence to prove the systematic capability of software consumed by critical systems. \nFor all upcoming ELISA Working Group meetings and public seminars please go to https://lists.elisa.tech/calendar.

SUMMARY:ELISA Seminar: Xen Safety Certification: progress so far and plans for the future
DESCRIPTION:ELISA Project Seminar Series focuses on hot topics related to ELISA’s mission to define and maintain a common set of elements\, processes and tools that can be incorporated into Linux-based\, safety-critical systems amenable to safety certification. Speakers are members\, contributors and thought leaders from the ELISA Project and surrounding communities. Each seminar comprises a 45-minute presentation and a 15-minute Q&A\, and it’s free to attend. \nTitle: Xen Safety Certification: progress so far and plans for the future (hosted by ELISA Aerospace Working Group) \nDate: Wednesday\, September 6\, 7:00-8:00 am PDT/10:00-11:00 pm EDT / 16:00-17:00 CEST / 14:00-15:00 UTC \nSpeaker: Stefano Stabellini\, Fellow at AMD\, Xen Hypervisor & Linux Kernel Maintainer \nHow to Attend: Register in advance to attend for free. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. And don’t forget to add the event to your calendar from the confirmation email. \nAbstract: \nXen Project is a static partitioning hypervisor for embedded\, from aerospace to industrial and automotive. Xen enforces strong isolation between domains so that one cannot affect the execution of another. Features such as cache coloring reduce interference and improve interrupt latency and determinism. A real-time workload can run alongside a more complex guest. But can it be used in safety-critical environments? \nThe Xen hypervisor has a microkernel design: services and tools are non-essential and run in unprivileged VMs\, while the core is less than 50K LOC. This architecture lends itself well to safety-critical applications as only the hypervisor core is critical and needs to go through the certification process. \nThis presentation will describe the activities of the Xen FuSa SIG (Special Interest Group) to make Xen easier to safety-certify. It will highlight the most significant improvements introduced in the last 12 months to align Xen with safety standards such as DO-178C and ISO 26262. It will go into detail on MISRA C compliance\, its latest status\, and the next steps to close all the outstanding MISRA C gaps. It will discuss the role of Gitlab-CI and how to keep the Xen codebase MISRA C compliant without major efforts. \nThe Xen community has a clear path ahead to achieve the safety certification of the hypervisor. This talk will discuss it focusing on the most impactful changes to the Xen codebase and Xen community processes. \nFor all upcoming ELISA Working Group meetings and public seminars please go to https://lists.elisa.tech/calendar.
