A session for people with interest in various parts of the OS and distro to improve gaming performance

A session for Q&A and to hear feedback about GPL enforcement.

Linux can enforce signature checking on all files and make sure only trusted software can be executed, but this requires that the file signatures be packaged, distributed, and installed together with the files. This BoF aims to bring together people working on package management systems to discuss the different methods of including file signatures in software packages.

Theory and Data on why we believe WALT is better than PELT for real world mobile or interactive use cases from a perf-per-waiit perspective.

Discussion on OEMs and consumers needs for comprehensive packaging of "applications"

This talk will present git-series, a new git tool for tracking patch series through rebases and other non-fast-forwarding operations. (slides)

WiFi doesn't have to suck. Really. We can make it suck less. In fact, we just did. (slides)

Learn how Linux safely supports unprivileged users creating and starting containers. (slides)

In this talk we will present how Linux Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA) on Ubuntu and Fedora can prevent the execution of unsanctioned programs once we have installed the system files with signatures. (slides)

Ever wanted simulate a workload without needing the original application? Look no further. (slides)

Explanation of the Restartable Sequences (rseq) system call: algorithm, ABI, and use-cases. (slides)

A critical look at Linux APIs from an application developer perspective

systemd's primary functionality is service management. Let's bring service management to the next level, by introducing "Portable System Services", a new concept how services may be packaged up with all their required libraries, data and other artifacts and may be shipped as single-file images. (slides)

Use of the latest GCC technology to boost the performance of a Linux-based system (slides)

How do we discover API changes, test and document them, and make sure they are publicized to everyone, including end users, as far in advance, and as widely, as possible? (slides)

Introducing bus1, a capability based IPC on linux. (slides)
