Containers/Mini-summit 2008

2008-06-06T07:00:23Z

Legoater:

There will be a containers mini-summit at the [http://www.linuxsymposium.org/2008/ OLS'08]. This page is for organizing this mini-summit. Feel free to edit.

'''When''': 22nd of July 2008<br/>
'''Where''': Ottawa, ON, Canada.

== Proposal ==

The mini-summit proposal sent to OLS organizers. '''See [[/Proposal|proposal]]'''.

== Topics to discuss ==

* Device accessibility cgroup (maybe with remap ability)
* TTYs
* Syslog
* Checkpoint/restart
* Memory controllers
* more?..

== List of attendees ==
Please fill in your name here if you are going to attend, or email kir at openvz dot org if you are too lazy. Surely the list is not final, so put your name even if you are not sure you can make it.

This list is in no particular order.

== Agenda ==

* Namespaces/Containers
** Additional needed namespaces
*** Small namespaces ''What to do with small subsystem that might need virtualization. E.g. in openvz we have FUSE, binfmt_misc and some other small stuff virtualized. But how to merge it in mainline? Create a separate namespace for each? Mere them into one? How to call this then?''
** Nature of a 'container' — kernel object or userspace fiction
** Handling of /proc and /sysfs within containers
** Handling filesystem/namespace synchronization (not sure what the issue is)
** How to enter a container
** User namespaces?
* Cgroups+Resource management
** Cgroup implementation
** Additional cgroups and their design
** libcg - userspace explotation of control groups/resource management
** Resource management
* Checkpoint/Restart
** Summary of existing c/r patchsets/designs
** How to initiate and synchronize checkpoint/restart
** (state of freezer subsystem?)
** Memory state dump
** How to dump/fetch data for resource (file, ipc) checkpoint
** How to do restart
** Hopefully we can make decisions here, and get a bit of a hackfest going during OLS

== Moderators ==

* Namespaces/containers: Serge Hallyn, Dave Hansen
* Cgroups and resource management: Paul Menage, Balbir Singh, Dhaval Giani
* Checkpoint/restart: Daniel Lezcano, Oren Laadan

Containers/Mini-summit 2008/Proposal

2008-01-29T13:33:42Z

Legoater: /* Moderators */

Mini-summit proposal: '''Linux Kernel Containers Developer Summit'''
__NOTOC__
== Topic ==

Namespaces, containers, cgroups, and container checkpoint/restart.

== Description ==

Development for namespaces and cgroups is well underway in the
mainline kernel. To keep momentum going and keep the loosely
knit teams of developers well-coordinated, a physical meeting in
which to discuss future development plans is needed.
Additionally, we are at a point where crucial decisions about
the nature of a "container object" and about the checkpoint/restart
design need to be made.

A final set of topics will be decided upon through mailing lists
ahead of time, but potential topics include:
* Handling filesystem/namespace synchronization
* Handling of /proc and /sysfs within containers
* Additional needed namespaces (i.e. device namespace)
* Nature of a 'container' — kernel object or userspace fiction
* Additional cgroups and their design
* How to initiate and synchronize checkpoint/restart
* How to enter a 'container' ?

== Moderators ==
{{Out|These are just suggestions, please edit here or let us know if you do or do not want to moderate.}}

* Namespaces/containers: Serge Hallyn, Cedric Le Goater
* cgroups: Paul Menage
* Checkpoint/restart: Dave Hansen, Cedric Le Goater

== Expected Time Required ==

One day.

== Number of Attendees ==

Approximately 30.

== Technical Requirements ==

* Projector and screen
* Whiteboard
* Network access
* Power for laptops
* doughnuts and croissants for participants
