Kata project update 2019-01-14
Hey, I’m hoping that as a project, we can start sending project updates on the ML on a regular basis (the last ones were posted on 3/11 and 4/6!). With this in mind, I setup a quick rotation to help kick this off for the next few weeks, selecting current architecture committee members as initial volunteers. Please check it out at [1], especially Jon, Wei, Xu and Samuel, whom I volunteered… Last week there was a good amount of work on refactoring, cleanup, fixups, and (finally!) adding (optional) seccomp support in the guest! Notable pull requests opened: * Adding build support for Firecracker * Kernel version bump Notable pull requests merged: * A few pull requests with code cleanup/refactoring from Samuel: * Simplify the hypervisor interface (runtime #1010) * Creation of a new internal types package (runtime #1096) * Sandbox simplification (runtime #1012) * Add (configurable) seccomp profile support in the guest (runtime #689) * Handful of fixes / enhancements for containerd v2 shim Activity: -Utilizing the latest 1.5.0-rc2 release, a quick demonstration of multiple hypervisor support was created and posted at [2]. -Some members of the community had a follow-up meeting with various open-source groups at AWS, highlighting the current status of Firecracker support in the latest 1.5 release candidate. See [3] for email thread with notes/summary, and find the recording at [5]. -Bergwolf release 1.4.2 release of Kata (stable updates) Looking forward: -we are expecting the 1.5 release on 1/23 -Architecture committee meeting moved from Monday mornings at 7am PDT to Tuesdays at 8am PDT. Please feel free to add items to the agenda, [4]. Currently we have discussions on the Denver PTG, CI, CFPs and an overview of work for Kata + Cilium.
