The conversion of the ARM Linux kernel over to the Device Tree as the mechanism to describe the hardware has been a significant change for ARM kernel developers. Nowadays, all developers porting the Linux kernel on new ARM platforms, either new SOCs or new boards, have to work with the Device Tree. Based on practical examples, this talk intends to provide a ""getting started guide"" for newcomers in the Device Tree world: what is the Device Tree? How is it written and compiled? How do the bootloader and kernel interact? How are Device Tree bindings written and documented? What are the best practices for writing Device Trees and their bindings?

System Device Tree and Lopper: Concrete Examples - ELC NA 2022Stefano Stabellini
System Device Tree is an extension to Device Tree to describe all the hardware on an SoC, including heterogeneous CPU clusters and secure resources not typically visible to an Operating System like Linux. This full view allows the System Device Tree to be the "One true source" of the entire hardware description and helps to prevent the common (and hard-to-debug) problem of conflicting resources and system consistency. Lopper is an Open Source framework to parse and manipulate System Device Tree. With Lopper, it is possible to generate multiple traditional Device Trees from a single larger System Device Tree. This presentation will provide an overview of System Device Tree and will discuss the latest updates of the specification and tooling. The talk will illustrate multiple use-cases for System Device Tree with concrete examples, such as Linux running on the more powerful CPU cluster and Zephyr running on a smaller Cortex-R cluster. It will also show how to use Lopper to generate multiple traditional Device Trees targeting different OSes, not just Linux but also Zephyr/other RTOSes. Finally, an end-to-end demo based on Yocto to build a complete heterogeneous system with multiple OSes and RTOSes running on different clusters on a single reference board will be shown.
Nick Stephens-how does someone unlock your phone with noseGeekPwn Keen
In GeeekPwn2016 Shanghai, Nick built an Android APP, which can exploit the vulnerabilities in THE Android devices with TrustZone. It can execute arbitrary code with root privilege. In the demo, the fingerprint authentication module is pwned and set to allow any fingerprint to pass.
Coming from UNIX System V (IBM AIX & Sun Solaris) System Programmer background, I find Linux has become the defacto choice for many computing workload, from embedded device, mobile phone, mission critical systems, all the way to the largest Super Computer Cluster in the world.
While Linux has tried to maintain its UNIX design philosophy, its foundation has radically changed departing its UNIX root (bye init, hi systemd), towards modern Operating Systems which many of its features have equivalent of its UNIX counterparts - if not better (Linux Container vs AIX WPAR/Solaris Zones, Solaris ZFS vs Stratis, and many more).

Attack monitoring using ElasticSearch Logstash and KibanaPrajal Kulkarni
With growing trend of Big data, companies are tend to rely on high cost SIEM solutions. However, with introduction of open source and lightweight cluster management solution like ElasticSearch this has been the highlight of the year. Similarly, the log aggregation has been simplified by logstash and kibana providing a visual look to the complex data structure. This presentation will exactly cater to this need of having a appropriate log analysis+Detecting Intrusion+Visualizing data in a powerful interface.
System Device Tree is an ongoing effort to expand the scope of Device Tree to describe and configure modern heterogeneous SoCs, including multiple CPUs clusters, their views of the system, and the software running on them. System Device Tree comes with Lopper, an Open Source Python tool to read a System Device Tree and produce one traditional Device Tree for each software execution domain.
The System Device Tree specification progressed significantly in the last year. This presentation will provide an update on the latest developments, such as the new bindings for the description and configuration of bus firewalls. The talk will deep-dive into Lopper, its flexible plugins architecture, and explain how to use it with System Device Tree today. If time allows, some common System Device Tree and Lopper use cases will be demonstrated.
Linux Conference Australia 2018 : Device Tree, past, present, futureNeil Armstrong
Since the switch of the ARM Linux support from the stable PowerPC Device Tree support, it became an important piece of software used to describe all sorts of devices based on very different hardware architectures.
Currently, BSD* Unixes and even the Zephyr RTOS has switched to Device Tree to describe the hardware. U-boot has also a file format using the Device Tree blob format.
Neil will present you the history of Device Tree from its origins, how it has been used for ARM from the PowerPC codebase, all the very different current usage and an overview of its future application and evolutions.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.
