kata-dev-irc-bot<sebastien.boeuf> @bergwolf it's read only14:47
kata-dev-irc-bot<sebastien.boeuf> @bergwolf not sure what makes it RO though. I'll ask @julio.montes and @manohar.r.castelino about that14:48
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> @laijs - are you presenting vm templating today?14:52
kata-dev-irc-bot<laijs> yes14:54
kata-dev-irc-bot<laijs> there is no slides14:54

kata-dev-irc-bot<laijs> I’m sorry that I sent an updated to the qemu community without cc-ing you @eric.ernst14:56

kata-dev-irc-bot<jesse.butler> i'm having a hard time staying connected to today's call (network issues at co-working space). does anyone have details on what might be required for bare metal resources? i can check into availability on oracle's bare metal service.15:47
kata-dev-irc-bot<anne> @jesse.butler: @sebastien.boeuf and @graham.whaley will have reqs15:52
kata-dev-irc-bot<jesse.butler> and hopefully i'll have a better network for the next meeting... but slack/email can work for now. @eric.ernst may know as well. i can check into it when i have a bit of info.15:54

kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> @jesse.butler Thanks!  The basic need is bare-metal; nothing very specific regarding hardware requirements - just need consistent results between runs (same hardware, no noisy neighbors on the node).16:08
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> at least, this is how I understand it as far as requirements.  Nested VT may also be useful if we plan to run both baremetal and within VM (since this is also an important use case)16:08
kata-dev-irc-bot<jesse.butler> any ideas on resource specifics (compute capacity, storage requirements, etc)?16:14
kata-dev-irc-bot<sebastien.boeuf> @jesse.butler thanks for looking into this. As @eric.ernst mentioned, the only specific thing that comes to mind is the capability of nesting VMs. About CPU/RAM/DISK, IIRC we don't need something fancy with 128cores and 1To of RAM, but @graham.whaley is the one who really used it and who designed the system, so I'll let him answer on that (he'll be back tomorrow).16:21
kata-dev-irc-bot<jesse.butler> nod, ok. this, ironically, might be the issue... bare metal instances aren't very small in general. ours (oracle's) even less so.. our smallest instance might just be too big to donate. but, i will check into it (already have fired off a note). i'll get back when i know more.16:22
kata-dev-irc-bot<jesse.butler> follow-up question - maybe for @graham.whaley - would resources be useful if not committed 100% of the time? kind of breaks down the CI/CD model to have service windows, but it might be more doable on our end, given the sizing issue16:23
kata-dev-irc-bot<jesse.butler> also worth mentioning from what i could gather from today's call, our v12n team are looking at getting some patches in upstream that allow us to just use qemu with kata.16:28
kata-dev-irc-bot<jesse.butler> i think that was something that came up today, but maybe just in passing (or maybe i totally misunderstood it?)16:28
kata-dev-irc-bot<jesse.butler> but if anyone's interested, that is something we are working on here. internally we're running with our qemu build (not lite)16:29
kata-dev-irc-bot<sebastien.boeuf> Yeah, that's why we still want to test with a vanilla version of qemu, to make sure we don't advertise numbers that we can only reach with a specific qemu version (lite)16:31

kata-dev-irc-bot<maran.wilson> I sent an email to the kata-dev mailing list just now to elaborate on what @jesse.butler mentioned regarding our ongoing efforts to upstream a solution that would allow Qemu to rapidly start KVM guests without firmware, via booting directly to the uncompressed Linux kernel.20:46
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> @maran.wilson this is great.21:01
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> thanks for sharing.21:01
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> I assume you've done some testing of guest kernel and qemu patches ; any early numbers with respect to relative boot time and/or footprint?21:02
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> not having to maintain a "lite" set of changes is very attractive.21:03
kata-dev-irc-bot<maran.wilson> No problem. We have a working proof of concept, but no perf data yet.21:03
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> fair enough.21:03
kata-dev-irc-bot<maran.wilson> Working on making some changes to the Qemu design a bit to match what the maintainers seem to want.21:04
kata-dev-irc-bot<maran.wilson> so might as well get that part done and then start really looking into the performance and full integration into kata containers21:04
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> Sure.21:07
kata-dev-irc-bot<sebastien.boeuf> that sounds great :slightly_smiling_face:21:07
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> We have some QEMU folks over here that I'm going to make sure start tracking some of the upstream PRs.21:07
kata-dev-irc-bot<maran.wilson> Awesome. And I wouldn't be surprised if we end up reaching out to you guys for ideas when it comes to tying it all together with elements of the pc-lite qemu patches your folks have worked on in the past.21:10
kata-dev-irc-bot<eric.ernst> K, don't hesitate.  I know some of our work has made it upstream already.21:11
