Action Items: a. Mark A. will people know when the Pulp version is released.
Attendees: Charles Short, Mark Asselstine, Scott Little, Jason, Bob, Davlet,...
1. STX Debian Integration
Outstanding patch review: https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/tools/+/817691
2. Build System
* Davlet has started looking at build system in K8N.
* Not all dev builds need to be rebuilt. Mark will look into this.
* Addition to LAT, HongXu and Eric are working through the issues
* Aptly vs Pulp
* Mark A. has talked to the Pulp maintainer
* Mark's submission is completed.
* Maintainer however is revamping testing code and switching over to different tagging. So not sure when this release is coming out.
* Mark A. will let people know when this version is out, and time to switch from Aptly to Pulp (Pulp is also the based project for Red Hat Satellite)
* Why switch? Aptly is not being maintained any more. Unfortunately, timing may not be ideal.
3. Kernel
* Kernel Modules still need to bring in. Unfortunately, they are using forked version.
* Mellanox and Broadcom use the same library/common library, RDMA, but different versions. So, there are some conflicts will need to be resolved
* The fork version, who will be maintaining the forked version over time. Encourage folks to not use their custom fork.
* Will need do a stable update soon, moving from current .74, to .100 (most recent). The gap is a bit large, so will need to make it more frequent (with gap of 10 versions)
4. Secureboot & Signing
* Secureboot and Signing/repo signature in the same EPICs
* Work currently is on signing. Will work on secureboot. since HongXu just finished fixed the PXE boot with LAT. So, folks will work on secureboot next.
* Signing is for both kernel signing and module signing, repo signing.
* signing: md5sum not as secured. start with mapping what Debian does.
* Debian Security Manual: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-manual/deb-pack-sign.en.html
Next meeting: March 2nd, 2022
