There have some kernel mechanisms that they keep symmetric key or password in memory. Those password or key may leak through /dev/mem, kdump, hibernation, bpf print to userland. I want to think a design to:

In the last hackweeks and my free time, I've been developing several tools to various degrees of completion. The purpose of this hackweek is to finish three of them, publish them on github and create openSUSE packages. * finddupmusic

Take the source rpm of a package (e.g. systemd), find the upstream tests, run them, store the results to a database that a web ui can access and display them. Now, do this automatically, for every qam-sle update.

Nightwatch.js is a Node.js based End-to-End (E2E) testing solution for browser based apps. It's based on Webdrive, meaning it's a very reliable way for me to test HAWK UI! It's a great opportunity to learn Webpack, PhantomJS nightwatch and to set up a TDD approach with any new features written with vue.js, the framework which we will be using in HAWK from now on.

OpenStack is, undoubtedly, a really huge ecosystem of cooperative services. Rally is a benchmarking tool that answers the question: “How does OpenStack work at scale?”. To make this possible, Rally automates and unifies multi-node OpenStack deployment, cloud verification, benchmarking & profiling. Rally does it in a pluggable way, making it possible to check whether OpenStack is going to work well on, say, a 1k-servers installation under high load. Thus it can be used as a basic tool for an OpenStack CI/CD system that would continuously improve its SLA, performance, and stability. <img src="https://wiki.openstack.org/w/images/thumb/e/ee/Rally-Actions.png/850px-Rally-Actions.png" width="700">

This is preparation/accompanying project to my school thesis. Fontconfig is library that keeps database of fonts installed in system and gives applications ability to query it. Fontconfig is currently searching the database in naive way and can be quite slow if there is many fonts installed. Most applications make several font queries when starting and fontconfig is slowing down their start.

I freshly bought a small and cheap laptop ASUS 200H based on Cherrytrail. My plan is to install openSUSE on it, and bring it along with my vacation in the following week :)
