Upcoming Events

Microconferences Accepted into 2019 Linux Plumbers Conference

The Live Patching Microconference at LPC will look at the issues around patching a running kernel.

Although much is done online these days, printing and scanning are still needed and driverless technologies are making it easier. The Open Printing Microconference will look at what needs to be accomplished keep Linux and open source operating systems a leader in today’s market.

The Testing and Fuzzing Microconference builds on last year's microconference. "The closing ceremony pointed out all the work that still has to be done: There are a number of overlapping efforts, and those need to be consolidated. The use of KASAN should be increased. Where is fuzzing going next? With real-time moving forward from "if" to "when" in the mainline, how does RT test coverage increase? The unit-testing frameworks may need some unification. Also, KernelCI will be announced as an LF project this time around. Stay around for the KernelCI hackathon after the conference to help further those efforts."

The kernel takes advantage of any feature that the toolchains provide. At the Toolchains Microconference participants will discuss how collaboration between the kernel and toolchain developers will make that much more seamless.

LPC will take place September 9-11 in Lisbon, Portugal.
