OpenEmbedded

Its November. Rainy, foggy, grey... does that get you into FOSDEM spirit? Awesome! The Monday right after FOSDEM, we will host the OE Workshop (again), and we've still got a couple of slots open for ??YOU?? Now head over to the CFP at https://lnkd.in/dxYUsR-R, and tell us the one thing you always wanted to share about OpenEmbedded!

Its FOSDEM time again, and you know what that means, right? The OpenEmbedded community will be gathering on the Monday after FOSDEM, February 3rd 2025. And third time's the charm! The CFP is already open at https://lnkd.in/dxYUsR-R and welcomes your ideas, presentations, rants, and also questions. Make sure to submit and register early, we usually sell out PS: sunshine has been added to the image for illustration only and may or may not reflect reality. #embeddedlinux #OpenSource #community

In the Linux ecosystem, there are many ways to build all the software used to put together a running system. Whether it’s building all the binary packages for a binary Linux distribution, using a source-based distribution, or building an embedded system from scratch, there are a lot of shared challenges which each system solves in its own way. In the inagural Build Systems people talked about [1]: * Providing provenance of build artifacts * Checking for UAPI changes between builds * Managing Linux kernels for products * Tracking patches used in a build * Building for hardware that requires building multiple sets of firmware This microconference is a way to get people who work on disparate build systems to discuss common problems and possible shared solutions across the entire problem space. The kinds of topics we want to discuss are the following: * Bootstrapping the build system * Cross building software * Make, autoconf, and other similar software build tools * Package build systems, bitbake, emerge/portage, pacman, etc * Packaging formats * Managing software with language-specific package managers * Patch sharing * Building within a container * Build systems for building containers * License gathering and verification * Security updates * SBOMS * Software chain-of-trust * Repeatable builds * Extremely long product life cycle support * Documentation and education * Finding the next generation of maintainers * Build-system visibility within the wider Plumbers attendees. This is not a definitive list, and you are free to post abstracts for other related topics. Build Systems microconference would like to gather representatives (developers and maintainers) from all the various build systems and related technologies. This is not a definitive list of possible attendees. * Android * Arch Linux * Buildroot * ChromeOS * Debian * Fedora/Redhat * Gentoo * OpenEmbedded * OpenWRT/LEDE * Yocto Project * Other traditional Binary Packaged distributions The CFP closes on July 5 and plan to have the schedule complete by July 19. Please help us (and the plumbers organziers) by submitting topics early. For more information, feel free to contact the MC Leads: Philip Balister <[email protected]> Josef Holzmayr <[email protected]> Please follow the suggestions from this BLOG post when submitting a CFP for this track. [2] Submissions are made via LPC submission system, selecting Track “Build Systems MC” [3] [1] https://lnkd.in/eQR5F5ZJ [2] https://lnkd.in/eRK3sWUQ [3] https://lnkd.in/e6C6XvcY

Here is a first hand report from todays in-person event by Philip Balister. #community #developers

We are kicking off the OE Workshop 2024 in Brussels! The room is packed as Philip Balister takes the stage. Thanks so much for all the people involved in making it happen, bringing their challenges and solutions and caring building sustainable software. Special thanks go out to Pengutronix and Peter Johennecken for video recording and processing, as well as The Yocto Project, A Linux Foundation Project for sponsoring. #community #developers #embeddedsystems

Join us at FOSDEM! We are sharing a table with Automotive Grade Linux in the AW building, which is already a tradition by now. We will be there all Saturday, AGL on Sunday. Many presentations feature OpenEmbedded technology, here are the ones we know about: https://lnkd.in/dWtXYYSn https://lnkd.in/dS2chm6P https://lnkd.in/dSE8tvvA https://lnkd.in/dnwijxNa If you know about others and want them added, let us know in the comments! #fosdem24 #community #developers #embeddedsystems

How to get into the right mood for the upcoming FOSDEM weekend: - buy a sixpack of Belgian beers - stock up on fries (double friture!) - binge watch the recordings from last years OE Workshop https://lnkd.in/dF8sgXk6
