First candidates would be a kernel and flash-kernel. We currently keep the sources at <a href="https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/flash-kernel">https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/flash-kernel</a> and <a href="https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux-next">https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux-next</a> - i just wanted to check that there aren't any objections when the number of packages with patches increases quite a bit."</div><div><br></div><div><i>Matthias writes;</i></div><div>"First of all, thank you for communicating this early :-) I have no fundamental objections to adding it, you would just need to target "byzantium" or "landing". </div><div><br></div><div>- Any chance that the kernel changes would break the desktop flavor of PureOS? Or would that be a completely separate kernel package and not merged with the desktop kernel?</div><div><br></div><div>- You'd need to make sure phone things work on amd64 as well as on arm64 in case they have a convergent base and are used on both form factors. And 3) the PureOS team is tiny so we can't maintain lots and lots of PureOS<->Debian delta. But with the phone team's help I think that's absolutely doable there's also secondary questions, like whether it makes sense to just move shared sources to the pureos group(s) in Gitlab also, I'll have to go through with improving Laniakea's sync overview page to be less cluttered - at the moment it's quite hard to know what needs merging where ;-) (that's actually the thing I am working on at the moment, since that also gets rid of the last bit of D code and makes deploying Laniakea easier).</div><div><br></div><div>- Laniakea can theoretically also build packages from Git repos - you'll need a list of repos and signed tags of a certain format in them, LK will then verify the tag signature and send the repo to a worker to create a source package out of that's then auto-uploaded. It's quite neat in concept...</div><div><br></div><div>....in practice I would need to get rid of the manual list and actually verify signatures (at the moment anything would be built, so that's really not deployable)</div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, that's $future_stuff, let's work on getting the phone pieces into byzantium easily first :-)"</div><div><br></div><div><i>Jeremiah writes;</i></div><div>- I would like to understand more about the increase in kernel patches; how will they be maintained? What are the expectations of the Librem 5 team, is there going to be a transfer of responsibility for the patches from the Librem 5 team to PureOS team?</div><div><br></div><div>Our resources are currently thinly stretched across our CI / CD, QA, and support teams, which means adding devices is a heavy lift that needs co-ordination. We don't really have a process for additional devices yet either and there needs to be some thought as we grow given that our Librem 5 traffic might significantly increase load and bandwidth on existing infrastructure. Do we have any data on;</div><div><br></div><div>- Currently Librem 5 CI (I believe we run Munin on the ARM 02 server no? Do we have output from that which might show load, disk, CPU, etc?</div><div><br></div><div>- How about the current instance of Laniakea? Are we running Munin? If not, do we have data on the server from a capacity planning standpoint?</div><div><br></div><div>- I'd like to know a bit more about the plan - do we intend to use your new process to build from git repos with signed tags Matthias? Or are we going to continue to build on ARM 02 and then upload to Laniakea?</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Jeremiah</div></body></html>
