SUMMARY:ELISA Seminar - The SEooC concept driven into extreme
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: The SEooC concept driven into extreme \nDate: Wednesday\, August 21\, 2024\, 7:00-8:00 Pacific / 14:00-15:00 UTC / 16:00-17:00 CET \nSpeaker: Håkan Sivencrona\, Senior Technical Leader @ SVA Safe Vehicle Automation\, Volvo Cars \nHow to Attend: Register here in advance to attend for free. And please add the webinar joining details to your calendar from the confirmation email you will receive upon registering \nAbstract: \nFor quite a few years ISO 26262 have supported a component/element-based approach to ISO 26262\, SEooC or Safety Element out of Context. This has simplified the argumentation and integration for specific elements into a larger system. However\, as we see more and more complex systems being introduced\, such as highly automated cars\, we foresee that the importance of SEooC concept will grow more important. But the how-to will be developed at the same time. \nThe presentation will introduce the SEooC concept\, the usage and possible extensions and supporting argumentation for use of for example SW components in a CI/CD framework. And a lot more.

And please add the webinar joining details to your calendar from the confirmation email you will receive upon registering \nAbstract: \nKernelCI started 10 years ago as a small project to test the kernel on Arm devices. The project grew over the years and today a new architecture is in place. In this talk\, Don and Gustavo will present you the new KernelCI. The KernelCI community put a lot of effort recently to design and implement its new testing architecture with a focus on facilitating the kernel community and industry engagement as much as possible. \n\nOur new KernelCI Architecture (1) allows different services (such as patchwork\, b4\, etc)\, multiple CI services\, and users to send request to test patches; (2) supports all sorts of testing platforms and hardware labs\, not just embedded hardware; (3) focus on quality of test run\, rather than quantity; (4) brings common database for all CI systems with automatic post-processing of regressions. \n\nWe will offer the ELISA community an overview of KernelCI and look for potential areas of collaboration between both projects.

SUMMARY:Open Source Summit Japan (Tokyo\, Japan)
DESCRIPTION:The Open Source Summit Japan\, 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. takes place October 28-29 in Tokyo\, Japan.  \nMonday October 28th at 11:15 JST \nSafe Systems with Linux – Philipp Ahmann\, Sr. OSS Community Manager Etas GmbH (BOSCH) & Kate Stewart\, VP Dependable Embedded Systems The Linux Foundation \nAs Linux is increasingly deployed in systems with varying criticality constraints\, distro providers are expected to ensure that security fixes in their offerings do not introduce regressions for customer products that have safety considerations. The key question arises: How can they establish consistent linkage between code\, tests\, and the requirements that the code satisfies? And which open source tools and specifically for Linux exist to support traceability in order to comply with standards such as ASPICE\, ISO26262 or ISO21434? This talk addresses critical challenges in requirements tracking\, documentation\, testing\, and artifact sharing within the Linux kernel ecosystem. Functionality has historically been added to the kernel with requirements explained in the email justifications for adding\, but not formalized as “requirements” in the kernel documentation. While tests are contributed for the code\, the underlying requirement that the tests satisfies is likewise not documented in a consistent manner. This and further topics will be discussed. Additionally\, the results from the “Safe Systems with Linux” micro conference at Linux plumbers will be summarized. \nTuesday October 29\, 2024 14:00 JST \nLessons Learned on Following Security Best Practices in Zephyr – Kate Stewart\,  VP Dependable Emb0edded Systems  The Linux Foundation \nLaunched in 2016\, the Zephyr project aimed to address the lack of standardized security practices in the IoT market by applying best practices to an open-source framework. This talk will detail Zephyr’s journey over the past 8 years\, including becoming a CVE Numbering Authority and forming a PSIRT team\, to demonstrate that open-source projects can successfully implement security best practices. \n  \nTuesday October 29\, 2024 16:40 JST \nFrom Complexity to Clarity: Addressing Challenges in AI BOMs for Compliance – Gopi Krishnan Rajbahadur\, Senior Staff Researcher Huawei Technologies Canada & Kate Stewart\, VP Dependable Embedded Systems The Linux Foundation \nAs global regulations on AI software tighten\, the AI Software Bill of Materials (AI BOM) and the new SPDX 3.0 with AI and dataset profiles offer a promising solution for compliance but face slow adoption due to developer knowledge gaps and the complexity of AI systems. This talk will address these challenges\, share best practices for improving AI BOM accuracy\, and provide strategies to help professionals ensure their AI applications meet regulatory requirements. \nHow to attend: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/open-source-summit-japan/register/ \nTo see more information: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/open-source-summit-japan/program/schedule/

SUMMARY:The Linux Foundation Member Summit (Napa\, California)
DESCRIPTION:The Linux Foundation Member Summit is the annual gathering for Linux Foundation member organizations taking place in Napa\, California on November 19-21. \nAn annual gathering for Linux Foundation members that fosters collaboration\, innovation\, and partnerships among the leading projects and organizations working to drive digital transformation with open source technologies. It is a must-attend for business and technical leaders looking to advance open source strategy\, implementation\, and investment in their organizations and learn how to collaboratively manage the largest shared technology investment of our time. \nELISA Ambassador Kate Stewart\, Vice President of Dependable Embedded Systems at the Linux Foundation\, will be on-site to give a few presentations including: \nTuesday\, November 19 at 3-3:30 pm PST – Zephyr: Overview and Roadmap \nThis session will provide an overview of the project’s accomplishments to date\, and provide a roadmap of what is being planned for 2025. Zephyr project is now the 5th most active project hosted by the Linux Foundation. Each release sees about 30% new contributors\, and these contributors are resulting in around 3 changes per hour in the code base. Products as diverse as Chromebooks\, to Wind Turbines\, to Hearings Aids\, and Pet Trackers are being built with Zephyr. Learn about the open source and security best practices that have been applied to Zephyr over the years\, and why it is now one of the most active open source projects at the Linux Foundation. Add it to your schedule here. \nThursday\, November 21 at 12-12:30 pm – SPDX: From Software to Systems \nKate will be joined by Gary O’Neall\, Founder and Principal Consultant at Source Auditor. The “Software” Product Data Exchange was created in 2010 to provide machine and human readable metadata for licensing information to consumers of open source software. Over the years\, the SPDX community has added support for a wide range of additional use cases. Complex software component interactions between open source and proprietary as well as the requirements to support SBOMs optimized for security risk management have been driving forces for many of the changes. With the SPDX 3.0 release and work being done for the upcoming SPDX 3.1 release\, the scope of SPDX has expanded beyond software to entire systems including datasets\, AI models\, services and hardware. This will enable consumers to satisfy additional use cases in areas like product safety and export regulation compliance. With the SPDX 3.0\, we’ve renamed SPDX from “Software” Product Data Exchange to “System” Product Data Exchange to better reflect where the project is aiming. In this talk\, we’ll go over changes we’ve made to the SPDX model to support systems\, the additional profiles that are focused on system level problems and what this means to both the producers and consumers of SPDX data. Add it to your schedule here. \nThe Linux Foundation Member Summit is an invitation-only event for member companies of The Linux Foundation. Invitation codes have been sent to member companies for the event. If you are a member company and need information regarding your invitation code\, please contact Event Support.

SUMMARY:Meet ELISA Project at FOSDEM 2025
DESCRIPTION:How many of you are planning to attend FOSDEM 2025? \nAre you planning to speak at the event or attend as an participant to learn? \nWhat topics excite you the most this year? Whether you are interested in embedded systems\, open source innovation\, safety or security\, FOSDEM 2025 promises to be a hub of activity for everyone in the developer community. \nThis time there will be talks from the ELISA Project community. You will have the chance to meet the community ambassadors\, some of whom will be available at the Zephyr Project stand at Building K\, Level 1. \nDon’t miss the opportunity to engage with these experts and learn about the latest developments in the ELISA community! \nMark your calendar to attend these ELISA Project talks! \nSaturday\, February 1:\nEnhancing Testing Strategies for Critical Systems: Statistical Path Coverage\n\nTrack: Testing and Continuous Delivery\nSpeaker: Imanol Allende\, OpenTech GmbH\nRoom: UD6.215\nDay: Saturday\nStart: 10:30\nEnd: 10:55\n\nModern embedded and autonomous systems are pushing the boundaries of software complexity\, especially in critical applications. Traditional testing methods often struggle to meet the demands of these systems\, particularly when operating on resource-sharing architectures running complex operating systems like Linux. To address this challenge\, we introduce Statistical Path Coverage (SPC)\, a novel statistical approach designed to enhance test effectiveness by statistically focusing on the execution paths exercised by target applications. \nThis presentation will discuss how SPC can quantify execution path coverage\, estimate the risk of untested paths\, and support assurance. We will also introduce DB4SIL\, a tool leveraging FTrace to collect and analyze execution traces\, enabling actionable insights into the kernel’s behavior during testing campaigns. Through examples\, we will demonstrate how SPC and DB4SIL can guide developers in prioritizing testing efforts\, improving test coverage\, enabling continuous monitoring\, and reducing risk in complex\, software-driven systems. \nThe Trustable Software Framework: A new way to measure risk in continuous delivery of critical software\n\nTrack: Testing and Continuous Delivery\nSpeaker: Paul Sherwood\, Codethink\nRoom: UD6.215\nStart: 11:00\nEnd: 11:25\n\nMany of the international standards for software in critical systems (e.g. IEC 61508\, ISO 26262) are published under restrictive licences\, at high prices. They broadly discourage the use of FOSS\, by imposition of processes that do not align with modern open source best practices such as continuous delivery and automated testing. As a result some industries such as automotive\, medical and aerospace\, are locked in to proprietary software. \nThis talk will introduce the Trustable Software Framework (TSF)\, a new free and open source project which establishes an evidence-based method for measuring the actual risks involved in continuous delivery of software in critical systems. \nTSF is applicable over the entire software supply chain\, including CICD tools and infrastructure\, build dependencies\, operating systems\, target applications and test environments\, and is intended to measure risk on projects delivering critical systems which demand reliability\, availability\, security and safety. \nObtaining Safety & Security Certifications for L4Re\n\nTrack: Microkernel and Component-Based OS\nSpeaker: Marcus Hähnel\nRoom: UB4.136\nDay: Saturday\nStart: 16:50\nEnd: 17:15\n\nIn this talk I will share some details on the path towards the recently obtained Security (EAL4+\, German GEHEIM) and Safety (ISO26262 ASIL-B\, SIL-2) certifications that have been achieved for the L4Re Operating System Framework. I will show some details on where generic software development\, operating systems\, and third-party code clash with the expectations of the safety norms. I will also shed some light on the challenges we face in maintaining these certifications while staying true to the open source nature of the system with contributions form a multitude of actors from various fields. I will conclude with an outlook of the things to come and how we want to ensure that open source microkernel-based operating systems can be a vital cornerstone to safe & secure systems. \nSunday\, February 2:\nIntro to the SPDX Functional Safety Model\n\nTrack: Software Bill of Materials (SBOM)\nSpeaker: Nicole Pappler\, Alektometis.com\nRoom: H.2213\nDay: Sunday\nStart: 09:30\nEnd: 10:00\n\nWhile SPDX provides with its relationships already a good starting base to model the internal dependencies\, setting all actions and work products that are part of a functional safety release of a project sparked some discussions in the Functional Safety community. This talk lines out the main discussion points with the different viewpoints discussed in the SPDX FuSa group\, along with matching prototype models. \nBASIL an open source tool that supports requirements traceability with design SBOM\n\nTrack: Software Bill of Materials (SBOM)\nSpeaker: Luigi Pellecchia\, Red Hat\nRoom: H.2213\nDay: Sunday\nStart: 13:30\nEnd: 14:00\n\n\n\nBASIL is an open source software quality management tool that has been developed to simplify the definition and maintenance of traceability matrix in Safety Critical applications. Even if BASIL provides several features as the management of quality related work items and a test execution framework\, usually in critical applications we have to deal with complex toolchains. Due to that it is mandatory to have a way to share data between tools in a consistent way. Join us in a session where we will see how BASIL is supporting SPDX to share quality related work items as a SBOM. \n\n\nAutomotive BOF\n\n Track: BOF – Track B\n Room: H.3242\n Day: Sunday\n Start: 13:00\n End: 14:00\n\nThis Birds of a Feather (BoF) session at FOSDEM will focus on the growing intersection of open source and the automotive industry\, highlighting the latest advancements\, challenges\, and opportunities for collaboration. As the automotive sector increasingly adopts open-source software\, it is driving innovation in areas such as in-vehicle systems\, autonomous driving\, and vehicle connectivity. Key projects like Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) and the ELISA (Enabling Linux in Safety Applications) initiative are at the forefront of this transformation\, providing open-source frameworks for developing scalable\, secure\, and reliable automotive software. This session will bring together developers\, engineers\, and enthusiasts to discuss how these initiatives are shaping the future of mobility and explore how open-source communities can work together to solve the unique challenges of the automotive domain. \nAttendees will have the opportunity to share experiences\, discuss key technical topics such as real-time operating systems\, safety-critical systems\, and compliance with automotive standards (e.g.\, ISO 26262)\, and explore potential new collaborations. The session will delve into the importance of open standards\, the growing need for security in connected vehicles\, and how projects like AGL and ELISA enable safer\, more efficient automotive software development. By fostering cross-industry dialogue and strengthening the automotive open-source ecosystem\, this session aims to inspire future collaborations that can help define the next generation of smart\, connected\, and autonomous vehicles. \nIf you would like to meet our community experts at FOSDEM or you have any project related questions\, please feel free to contact us at info@elisa.tech. \nWe look forward to meeting you!

SUMMARY:2025 FSW Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Stoke Space in conjunction with The Jet Propulsion Laboratory\, The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory\, The Aerospace Corporation\, The Southwest Research Institute and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center\, is hosting the 18th Annual Workshop on Spacecraft Flight Software (FSW 2025) in Seattle\, Washington from March 24th to 27th\, 2025 \n\n\n\n\nIn the last several years\, there has been a significant increase in the next generation of flight system architectures for space. Some of the advancements have been in multicore\, soft-core\, FPGA’s\, space computers\, operating systems\, flight software and machine learning. This presents many opportunities in the space industry\, as well as some significant challenges. \nELISA Project members Matt Weber\, Chief Software Architect at Boeing\, and Michael Monaghan\, Computer Engineer at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center\, will be at the workshop on Wednesday\, March 26 at 11:20-11:45 am to give a presentation titled\, “Making Penguins Fly.”  \n\nThis presentation will touch on the objectives\, challenges\, and developments of the Enabling Linux in Safety Applications (ELISA) foundation’s Aerospace and Space Grade Linux working group (WG.) The presentation will include specific topics from a Dec 10-12 Goddard Space Flight Center workshop.  ELISA was formed to make it easier for companies to build and certify Linux-based safety-critical applications – systems whose failure could result in loss of human life\, significant property damage\, or environmental damage. ELISA members are working together to define and maintain a common set of tools and processes that can help companies demonstrate that a Linux-based system meets the necessary safety requirements for certification. The Aerospace Working Group develops use cases to inform and influence Linux architecture and related tools\, works to derive technical requirements for avionics operating systems\, and seeks to enhance and expand avionics software lifecycle processes\, practices\, and tools to enable the use of Linux in avionics systems that are certified to high design assurance levels. Space grade Linux\, which recently made its open-source debut as an ELISA Special Interest Group (SIG)\, is a collaborative\, open-source project bringing together space agencies\, industry\, academia\, and non-profit organizations to establish a trusted ecosystem of Linux-based\, open-source software for mission-critical spacecraft operations. \n\n\n\nOther themes of  the technical presentations include: \n\n\n\n\n\nResiliancy\, safety\, and security\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtificial intelligence\, machine learning\, and onboard data processing\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpace networking\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOnboard data storage and representation\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFlight software architectures\, frameworks\, and software buses\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSoftware enabled mission concepts\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDigital twin\, config management\, and software enabled emulation\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDevOps\, continuous integration\, and automated testing\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFSW\, embedded processor\, and FPGA interactions\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFlight Operating Systems\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNew languages (bring your non-C work)\n\nTo learn more about the workshop or to register\, visit the main event website here: https://flightsoftware.org/workshop/FSW2025.

SUMMARY:eLSA Symposium - Göttingen\, Germany - September 25-26\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:The eLSA Symposium has been initiated 2025 to support enabling the utilization of open source software in (highly) regulated context\, mainly functional safety and security. The idea is to bring together academia with peers from industry from different domains. The symposium is for everybody\, who \n\nutilizes open-source software in safe and secure embedded systems\nwonders how to utilize and maintain open-source software in regulated context\nworks on methods and tools used to qualify open-source software\n\nLearn more about eLSA Symposium here. \nAt this symposium\, our ELISA Project ambassador Philipp Ahmann (ETAS GmbH) will be presenting a talk on “Code\, Compliance\, and Confusion: Open Source in Safety-Critical Products“. \nAbout the talk: \nThe integration of Open Source Software (OSS) in functionally safe systems represents a critical intersection of innovation and compliance requirements across multiple industries. This talk examines two complementary aspects of this evolving landscape: the current state of OSS in functional safety applications and the persistent barriers hindering wider adoption. \n2024 has marked significant acceleration in the visibility and adoption of OSS in safety-critical environments\, with diverse projects demonstrating varying levels of maturity. Foundation-backed initiatives like the ELISA project within the Linux Foundation are establishing frameworks for Linux in safety applications\, while specialized operating systems such as Zephyr and Xen continue to gain traction. The Eclipse Foundation’s Safe Open Vehicle Core (S-Core) project represents another significant advancement\, aiming to create a common certifiable automotive middleware stack that addresses critical safety requirements. The ecosystem now spans from microkernel solutions like L4Re and seL4 to full-featured platforms\, with Linux serving as a prime example of the opportunities and challenges in this space. Infrastructure improvements like the SPDX safety profile address critical aspects of safety documentation in Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs)\, while safety-certified components like the Ferrocene Rust compiler create new possibilities for language-level safety guarantees. \nDespite this progress\, substantial barriers impede broader OSS adoption in functionally safe systems. A particularly persistent challenge remains the confusion around terminology and approaches – exemplified by the distinctions between “safety Linux” versus “safe Linux” that illustrate broader issues in how safety responsibility is allocated between OSS components and system-level mitigations. By examining architectural concepts currently implemented in production systems or under development\, this presentation cuts through marketing rhetoric to provide clear distinctions between approaches across various open source technologies. \nThe author will address uncertainty around certification pathways\, challenges in establishing sufficient evidence for safety arguments\, fragmented governance models\, and incomplete understanding of OSS development processes among safety assessors. \nAttendees will gain practical insights for evaluating safety approaches in OSS-based systems\, including key questions to ask when assessing different safety concepts across industries\, with particular emphasis on applications where both manufacturers and suppliers are seeking to implement open source software in safety-critical production systems. \nKey take-aways for the audience: \n(Software) Architectural concepts used in the usage of OSS in safety-critical systems.\nState of various project in their way to address functional safety.\nApproaches towards safe usage and certification by OSS projects.\nUnderstanding the marketing elements and tricks used to promote safe OSS.\nBetter understanding about the OSS safety landscape. \nLearn more and register for this event. \n  \n

SUMMARY:ELISA Seminar - Software Hash ID: you will not be able to live without it
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: Software Hash ID: you will not be able to live without it \nDate: Wednesday\, October 15\, 2025\, 7:00-8:00 Pacific / 14:00-15:00 UTC / 16:00-17:00 CET \nSpeaker: Thomas Aynaud\, Chief Technology Officer at Software Heritage \nHow to Attend: Register here in advance to attend for free. And please add the webinar joining details to your calendar from the confirmation email you will receive upon registering \nDescription: \n\n\nThe Software Hash Identifier (SWHID[1]) is an intrinsic identifier for software source code and artifacts that became an international standard in April 2025 (ISO/IEC 18670:2025[2]). As an open standard\, SWHID is developed under open governance and was originally championed by Software Heritage[3]\, which remains its largest and most prominent use case. \nIntrinsic identifiers like SWHID will play a foundational role in activities where provenance\, reproducibility\, auditing\, and SBOMs are essential—such as in industries with complex supply chains\, safety-critical systems\, highly regulated sectors\, and security-sensitive environments. \nWith recent legislation worldwide making SBOMs mandatory or strongly encouraged\, their creation and maintenance have become increasingly challenging\, especially for organizations managing complex supply chains. SWHID offers a significant simplification\, which explains the growing interest and early adoption. \nIn this talk\, Thomas Aynaud will present Software Heritage missions and data model\, introduce the concept of intrinsic identifiers\, explain the SWHID specification\, and present its open standard governance model. He will share how open source projects and companies can adopt and benefit from SWHID through real-world use cases. The session will conclude with a summary of the key advantages of SWHID and an update on Software Heritage’s plans to support its development and adoption in the coming months. \n\n[1] https://www.swhid.org/\n[2] https://www.iso.org/standard/89985.html\n[3] https://www.softwareheritage.org/

While helpful\, these tools can unintentionally introduce vulnerabilities by suggesting insecure\, misleading\, or unverified dependencies due to incomplete or inaccurate context. This creates new risks in the software supply chain.In this talk\, we will explore real-world examples of AI-generated code leading to security issues and demonstrate how to detect these threats by analyzing code changes\, generating AI Bills of Materials (AIBOMs)\, tracking unexpected dependencies\, and monitoring builds for unusual behavior. We will also cover how to identify subtle risks such as dependency confusion by tracking package versions and changes over time.I will also cover how to add these checks into CI/CD pipelines without slowing down the development cycle\, giving DevSecOps teams and developers practical ways to stay secure in an AI-driven world. Add this session to your schedule. \nDetecting Double Free With BPF – Bojun Seo\, LG Electronics\nWednesday November 5\, 2025 16:35 – 17:05 KST \nDouble free vulnerabilities remain a critical security and safety issue in C and C++ programs. These errors\, where memory is freed multiple times\, can lead to crashes or exploitable security flaws. Developers usually rely on static and dynamic analysis tools\, which effectively catch most issues during testing. However\, detecting double frees in production environments\, particularly in embedded systems\, is challenging. The reason is that conventional debugging tools often alter the memory footprint and introduce significant overhead\, frequently failing to reproduce the issue due to these changes\, so-called Heisenbug. This talk introduces a novel double free detection tool leveraging BPF(Berkeley Packet Filter). By collecting data in a separate process\, this tool preserves the target process’s memory footprint\, minimizing interference. With significantly lower overhead compared to traditional debugging tools\, it enhances the reliability of detecting double frees in production\, especially in performance-sensitive embedded systems. I will demonstrate how BPF’s lightweight tracing capabilities improve memory safety\, offering an effective solution for real-world double free detection.

However\, this has also led to unprecedented complexity and security risks in the software supply chain. This session presents a core strategy to address these challenges: supply chain management centered on the latest international standard\, ISO/IEC 18974 (Open Source Security Assurance)\, and SBOM (Software Bill of Materials). Based on SK Telecom OSPO’s real-world adoption case and the activities of the OpenChain Korea Work Group\, we will share the practical process of establishing an open source security governance framework tailored for the Telco environment. Attendees will gain actionable guidance and lessons learned for policy-making\, automated SBOM generation and verification\, and collaboration with supply chain partners\, moving beyond mere theory. Add this session to your schedule. \n\nTo learn more about the event and register\, check here.

However to minimize technical issues\, we’d appreciate most of the content presenters being in-person. \nThe in-person venue is the Toranomon Hills Forum\, Tokyo\, Japan. \n\nLPC Microconference\n\n\nA microconference contains several sessions based on the same general topic. Each session will be between 15 to 30 minutes in length and be discussion oriented. \nSafe Systems with Linux MC \nAs Linux continues to be deployed in systems with varying criticality constraints\, progress needs to be made in establishing consistent linkage between code\, tests\, and requirements\, to improve overall efficiency and ability to support necessary analysis.\nThis MC addresses critical challenges in expectation management (aka requirements tracking)\, documentation\, testing\, and artifact sharing within the Linux kernel ecosystem. While tests are contributed for the code\, traditionally the underlying requirement that the tests satisfies is likewise not documented in a structured manner. This has resulted in a large amount of “tribal knowledge” associated with subsystems\, which results in technical debt when maintainers stop working on subsystems. \nTaking in the feedback from last year’s “Safe Systems with Linux” miniconference 1\, on how we can improve the documentation of the kernel’s design [1a] the ELISA (Enabling Linux in Safety Applications) community has focused on prototyping a template for capturing the requirements with volunteer linux kernel subsystem maintainers. The ELISA architecture team 2 has been meeting weekly and has developed a structured approach for documenting testable expectations with a template that allows embedding requirements directly with relevant code (as requested in the initial workshop) while maintaining machine readability and forming a base for improving testing with initiatives like KernelCI. The prototype format got initial review and feedback in December at the ELISA workshop at Goddard [3] and after incorporating that feedback in the workshop in Lund in May [4]. \nInitial pilots in the TRACING subsystem [5] have demonstrated the value of this approach\, even resulting in the identification and fixing of previously unknown issues. [6\,7]\nBuilding on the last year’s discussions\, the goal of this miniconference is to get wider feedback from additional maintainers and developers of different subsystems on the approach being proposed. \nPotential Topics\n\nProgress on Linux Kernel Requirements Framework\nDiscussing the SPDX-based template for low-level requirements\, lessons learned from initial pilots\, and plans for wider adoption.\nTechnical Debt Reduction\nHow documented requirements capture understanding of original functionality\, and can be leveraged for verification when code needs to be rewritten (ie. C to Rust)\, etc.\nRequirements-Driven Testing\nHow documented requirements can drive test case development and validation. Connecting relevant test cases with specific requirements and code\, should be able to yield more efficient testing.\nSemantic Aspects of Kernel Requirements\nExploring how to properly document expected behaviors with consideration for design elements that impact or are impacted by these behaviors.\nPractical Implementation Challenges\nAddressing the balance between detailed requirements documentation and maintaining kernel development velocity.\nRequired tools for automation\nProgress on tools to generate\, validate\, and track work products increasing dependability throughout the kernel development process.\nIndustry Adoption\nHow safety-critical industries are beginning to leverage these developments for certification and compliance purposes. How their safety engineers can participate in contributing formalized requirements to the kernel and providing linkage.\nRequirements as an Education Tool\nHow linux kernel documentation can mine the requirements\, and help new contributors understand kernel functionality and design intent and attract new upsteam developers\n\nSession Highlights:\n\nAspects of Dependable Linux Systems – Kate Stewart (Linux Foundation)\, Philipp Ahmann (Etas GmbH (BOSCH)) – 12 Dec 2025\, 10:00\nNVIDIA Approach for Achieving ASIL B Qualified Linux: minimizing expectations from upstream kernel processes -Igor Stoppa (nvidia) -12 Dec 2025\, 10:10am\nApplying Program Verification to Linux Kernel Code: Challenges\, Practices\, and Automation – Keisuke Nishimura – 12 Dec 2025\, 10:35\nDefining and maintaining requirements in the Linux Kernel – Chuck Wolber\, Gabriele Paoloni (Red Hat)\, Kate Stewart (Linux Foundation) – 12 Dec 2025\, 11:00\nKUnit Testing Insufficiencies – Matthew Whitehead (The Boeing Company) – 12 Dec 2025\, 12:00\nExploring possibilities for integrating StrictDoc with ELISA’s requirements template approach for the Linux kernel – Tobias Deiminger (Linutronix GmbH) – 12 Dec 2025\, 12:25\nBASIL: Open Source Traceability for Safety-Critical Systems” – Luigi Pellecchia – 12 Dec 2025\, 12:40\nTooling and Sharing Traceability Discussion – Luigi Pellecchia\, Matthew Whitehead (The Boeing Company)\, Tobias Deiminger (Linutronix GmbH) – 12 Dec 2025\, 12:55\nWrap up and next steps – Kate Stewart (Linux Foundation)\, Philipp Ahmann (Etas GmbH (BOSCH)) – 12 Dec 2025\, 13:20\n\nLearn more about the sessions here. \n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Every year\, thousands of developers of free and open source software from all over the world gather at the event in Brussels. \nThe ELISA Project Ambassadors will be at FOSDEM 2026\, actively participating across the event. They will be giving presentations\, joining discussions\, and meeting contributors and attendees in various developer rooms throughout the weekend. You can also connect with them at the Linux Foundation Europe stand\, where they will be available to talk about ongoing work\, community activities\, and how to get involved with ELISA. \nIn addition\, Philipp Ahmann\, ELISA TSC Chair\, Systems and Automotive WG Chair\, and Sr. OSS Community Manager at ETAS GmbH (BOSCH)\, will be giving a talk at FOSDEM 2026. Philipp will also be at the Linux Foundation Europe stand throughout the weekend for anyone who would like to learn more about the ELISA Project\, ask technical questions\, or discuss collaboration opportunities. \nFrom the TSC\, Kate Stewart (VP\, Dependable Embedded Systems\, The Linux Foundation) and Nicole Pappler (Senior Safety Expert & Founder at AlektoMetis.com) will also be at FOSDEM. \n  \nSession Highlight:\nCode\, Compliance\, and Confusion: Open Source in Safety-Critical Products \nOpen source is increasingly finding its place in functionally safe\, safety-critical systems but adoption remains complex. This talk explores the rapid progress of OSS in functional safety across Linux\, Zephyr\, Xen\, and automotive middleware\, while also addressing the real barriers holding it back\, from certification uncertainty to misunderstood safety concepts.  Learn more. \nBoF/Unconference\nBOF: Linux & Open Source Software for safety applications in Railways (Jan 31\, 2026 11:00 am – 11:55 am) \nDigitization requires efficient software development. Today\, this is no longer financially viable without the massive reuse of existing components and thus without the use of open source software as a generic product\, also in the context of safety applications. Therefore\, ways and means must be found to make open source software usable on a large scale for the railway sector. Due to the cooperative nature of open source software and the low competitive differentiation in the use of such generic products\, the collaboration of various stakeholders from the sector under the governance of a Foundation can useful and important. This BOF wants to explore\, if there is a critical mass to start a foundational backed project initiative for better spread of awareness for OSS in Railways and which activities exist to expand this approach for the safety-critical parts. \nSafety-Critical Linux: Challenges across industries (Sat\, Jan 31 – 12:00pm – 12:55pm) \nLinux is being used more often in safety-critical areas like cars\, planes\, medical devices\, robots\, and trains. But each industry faces similar challenges when trying to meet safety and certification requirements. This BoF is an open discussion about those real-world problems: timing and determinism\, documentation\, certification\, tooling\, and system design. Anyone interested in safety-critical Linux is welcome to join\, share experiences\, ask questions\, and explore where collaboration could help. Learn more. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
