# Weekly LinuxKit report for 2017-05-22 to 2017-05-28
|
||||
|
||||
This report covers weekly developments in the [linuxkit], [linuxkit-ci], [virtsock], and [linuxkit/rtf] repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
We now sign and verify LinuxKit component images, such as `linuxkit/kernel`, using [Notary](https://github.com/docker/notary) ([#1900] [@justincormack] [@ijc25] [@rneugeba]). The Alpine base was also updated to add config labels and trust ([#1909] [@rneugeba]), and the organisation key wad added to the yaml file ([#1913] [@dave-tucker] [@justincormack] [@rneugeba] [@riyazdf]).
|
||||
|
||||
The `linuxkit` tool has had several improvements that change its syntax:
|
||||
- Output formats must be specified in the CLI not in the yaml file. ([#1908] [@justincormack])
|
||||
- Disk command line options for local hypervisors have been unified ([#1888] [@thebsdbox] [@justincormack] [@IJC] [@ijc25] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
- Hyperkit backends now have a `-start-vpnkit` flag ([#1891] [@rneugeba] [@MagnusS]) and a `-vpnkit-socket` flag ([#1907] [@justincormack] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
- The Qemu backend was made more consistent. For all output formats except kernel+initrd, we now require the full path of the file to run, and in return makes the default options more automatic. It also now allows specifying a bootable disk image, so we can test disk image output formats with qemu too. ([#1873] [@justincormack])
|
||||
|
||||
A VMware vCenter backend was added, by using the VMware Go SDK in order to allow LinuxKit to push ISOs to VMware and run them. ([#1882] [#1860] [@justincormack] [@thebsdbox])
|
||||
|
||||
The Alpine base image was extended with:
|
||||
- VM integration agents ([#1887] [@MagnusS] [@ijc25] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
- Strace ([#1922] [@justincormack])
|
||||
- There is discussion on how to improve the Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) and Position Independent Executables (PIE) in the base ([#1902] [@rneugeba] [@justincormack] [@riyazdf] [@fntlnz])
|
||||
|
||||
Other improvements were made to the packages:
|
||||
- Add a mkimage package ([#1896] [@justincormack])
|
||||
- Add a open-vm-tools package ([#1898] [@ijc25] [@justincormack] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
- Moby config labels were added to common packages ([#1884] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
|
||||
Managing kernel configurations got easier via the [kernel-config project](projects/kernel-config/) which now has a real implementation of kernel configs ([#1877] [@tych0]).
|
||||
There is also ongoing work to update to the 4.11.2/4.10.17/4.9.29/4.4.69 kernels ([#1870] [@rneugeba]).
|
||||
|
||||
The experimental projects area saw several changes:
|
||||
|
||||
- Wireguard improvements ([#1915] [@tych0] [@justincormack] [@riyazdf])
|
||||
- Use kernel images for Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA) ([#1914] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
|
||||
The first Moby Security SIG was held, with meeting notes and PRs available in the tree. Please continue to send any fixes to them from your participation:
|
||||
|
||||
- 2017-05-24 meeting notes ([#1892] [@jcvenegas] [@zx2c4] [@avsm] [@tych0] [@riyazdf] [@mcastelino])
|
||||
- Draft agenda for 2017-06-07 meeting ([#1893] [@tych0] [@riyazdf])
|
||||
- Video recording of meeting notes ([#1894] [@tych0] [@riyazdf])
|
||||
- Fix link to ima-namespace project ([#1899] [@cyli] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
- Add buildchain security to agenda, proposed time allocations ([#1903] [@fntlnz] [@avsm] [@samoht] [@rneugeba] [@riyazdf] [@SvenDowideit])
|
||||
- More detail to security SIG agenda ([#1876] [@tych0])
|
||||
|
||||
General housekeeping activity:
|
||||
|
||||
- Improve Makefile to rebuild `bin/moby` as necessary ([#1910] [@tych0] [@justincormack])
|
||||
- Only output qemu disk creation info in debug mode ([#1911] [@justincormack])
|
||||
- Add a few more aliases to .mailmap and re-generated AUTHORS ([#1879] [@justincormack] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
- Add a blurb about CVE-2017-1000363 ([#1885] [@justincormack])
|
||||
- Remove AUTHOR from tests ([#1890] [@justincormack])
|
||||
- Add docs on how to use external disk ([#1776] [@justincormack] [@deitch])
|
||||
- Add a docs section on custom kernel builds ([#1838] [@rneugeba] [@yankunsam])
|
||||
- Update LinuxKit YAML file for Virtsock ([virtsock#29] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
- RTF templates: Fix path To top-wevel library ([linuxkit/rtf#15] [@dave-tucker])
|
||||
- Improve fetching of CI results ([linuxkit-ci#8])
|
||||
- Add a test-containerd to CI ([#1906] [@dmcgowan] [@justincormack] [@rneugeba])
|
||||
- Continue fixing `qemu-img` in a container ([#1871])
