Hey Linux Boot-Time SIG interested parties, Here is the information for the next Linux Boot-Time SIG conference call. The meeting will be held via the Jitsi online meeting platform. To Join the meeting via web, click on: https://meet.jit.si/LinuxBootTimeSIG ---- Our next meeting is Tuesday, December 17, at 9:00 am Mountain Time. See this link for other time zones: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingdetails.html?year=2024&month=12&day=17&hour=16&min=0&sec=0&p1=220&p2=137&p3=195&p4=771 (That makes it 8:00 am Pacific, 16:00 UTC, 17:00 CET, and 21:30 IST) I'm planning on 1 hour for this meeting. The agenda for the meeting (and where we'll keep the minutes) is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XAufoTT6VVJOTMzKMoz8SyOss-JA9H4J1_yVXQq5mN0/edit?usp=sharing The agenda for the Dec. 17 meeting is: -------- Topics: - Round-table of completed or ongoing work - Francesco Valla's analyze-initcall-debug.py script - Work on the Boot Time wiki (section of elinux wiki) https://elinux.org/Boot_Time - Status of the Boot Time Data wiki (on birdcloud.org) https://birdcloud.org/boot-time/Boot_Data - Tim Bird's grab-boot-data.sh - Boot Region processor - What are people working on? - In particular, are there any patches in flight? - Status of RedHat boot time work? - Status of Texas Instruments boot time work? - Anyone else? - Review of project ideas - See https://elinux.org/Boot_Time_Project_Ideas - Review of action items - Write a white paper or presentation with a mission statement - Mission Proposal: The Linux Boot Time Special Interest Group exists to make it easier for embedded Linux developers to meet requirements of quickly booting and resuming Linux systems. To support this, the SIG develops documentation, instrumentation, tests, tools and technology (changes to the Linux kernel), that enable developers to minimize Linux boot time. The goal is not just to optimize Linux for a single particular use case, but to make information and technology available that will enable the ongoing ability to configure and tune the boot time for Linux-based systems, to meet the needs of a variety of use cases where quick booting is a required or desirable feature. - Engaging more developers - Not many people have run my data gathering tool - how can I get data for more systems? - Next meeting - Jan 28th? - proposed periodicity- 1 month (tentatively the 4th Tuesday of every month?) -------- The meeting is open to anyone. Please prepare for the meeting by reading the mission statement (above), and being reading to comment on it. Also, if you have done any work on boot time in the last year, or are actively working on it, please be prepared to comment on it during the meeting. I look forward to talking with you. -- Tim P.S.
