Attendees: Lars, Lokesh, George, KB (eventually)
Docker update:
- - Docker 1.3.1 for virt7-testing
Xen update:
- Xen 4.4.1 in virt6-testing
- Can't do a release of xen without libvirt because libvirt depends
on a specific version of libxl
- Plan: update to libvirt-1.2.9 before test then release
Signing
- C7 we want to use the CBS signing system which isn't up yet
- All SIGs will just wait to release C7 stuff until then
- x4c C6 is signed with distro key, so we'll keep having Johnny sign those
Target:
C6 xen/libvirt beta release in mid-November, release early December
C7 docker: release when sig ready
C7 xen: beta maybe mid-December
Mid-December: Dojo schedule
- Biggest one: US in early Summer
- 30 Jan before FOSDEM - ~300 people
- Sponsorship?
- Talk / workshop / hack session re virt sig
Pre-FOSDEM dojo:
- kbsingh: It would be good to have virt-sig presence at dojo before FOSDEM
- gwd: I may not be able to make it; I'll try to find someone to cover me.

pasik hello [14:00]
gwd OK, who have we got present? I see pasik and jonludlam [14:02]
gwd kbsingh: You around?
gwd lsm5? [14:04]
gwd OK, well I guess let's get started. [14:05]
*** agrimm (agrimm@nat/redhat/x-lypwfoeufylzzmdt) has joined channel
#centos-devel
jonludlam gwd, is there an agenda? [14:06]
gwd The main agenda was updates: update on Xen, on Docker, and on the CBS.
gwd The CBS is the main blocker for a Docker release
gwd And really for me doing anything useful as far as a Xen update as well.
[14:07]
jonludlam I still don't have my cbs account
gwd And quaid had asked about oVirt joining the Virt SIG as well
gwd jonludlam: Right, I didn't realize you'd asked for one.[14:08]
* gwd tries to remember the nick of the guy who was working on that...
gwd Well the Xen status is:
gwd * I've got Xen 4.4.1 built in the CBS (unsigned)
gwd * It's using an updated blktap2.5, but I'm not sure how stable it is
(needs more testind) [14:09]
jonludlam (tbh I hadn't been pinging about it as I've had to work on other
things recently...)
gwd * And before we can do a proper release, I'd need to rebuild libvirt
jonludlam gwd, is it using the dkms blktap module?
jzb Evolution: ping
Evolution jzb: pong [14:10]
gwd I think the kernel probably is, not positive.
jzb Evolution: where can I find minutes from last week's meeting?
jzb Evolution: Atomic SIG meeting, I mean, in case that was vague. :-)
gwd jonludlam: Any reason for asking? :-)
Evolution everything should be at - http://www.centos.org/minutes/ [14:11]
jonludlam gwd, the dkms module is quite old, and I've had issues using it
under ubuntu. The newer kernel module source can't be built out of
tree though
gwd Yes, the whole blktap thing is something which needs to be sorted out.
[14:12]
jonludlam given we're providing a new kernel, it might make sense to have
the in-tree patches in the kernel
jonludlam gwd, totally agree
pasik i think the current linux 3.10 kernel in xen4c6 is based on some
citrix patches
pasik for blktap2.5 [14:13]
gwd That would make sense -- I haven't had time to actually get to look at
the kernel package and see what's in it.
pasik i remember some discussions/emails with David Vrabel about those
patches
jzb Evolution: found, thx
jonludlam pasik, might be worth refreshing the patches - we've done a lot of
testing on them recently [14:14]
pasik jonludlam: ok, good to know
pasik jonludlam: can you point to a git tree with the latest patches?
jonludlam pasik, not sure - I'll have a look
pasik jonludlam: thanks! [14:15]
jonludlam https://github.com/xenserver/linux-3.x.pg/tree/master/master I
believe
*** telex (telet...@freeshell.de) has quit: Remote host closed the connection
[14:17]
gwd pasik: You haven't tested the 4.4.1 patches in virt6-testing, have you?
[14:18]
*** telex (telet...@freeshell.de) has joined channel #centos-devel
kbsingh gwd: here now
kbsingh +1 for prepatching the kernel for needed support, dkms is never
worked for me in prod [14:20]
gwd kbsingh: OK -- I've just done a status update for Xen (basically not
much update since last time, except that I found a pretty nasty bug
upstream and fixed it)
kbsingh on the CBS update : [14:21]
pasik gwd: hmm, i *think* i did test the rpms you linked
pasik gwd: but i'm not totally sure. i've been way too busy with other
things
pasik gwd: i'll test again to be sure :)
gwd pasik: Sure. :_)
kbsingh lots of progress,
