Chère équipe d'organisation de la MiniDebConf Toulouse, Voici une proposition pour une présentation : The suggested talk topic: Linux live-patching for Debian We filed ITP #1070494 in May 2024 about adding live patching support for linux in Debian. Live patching is the ability to load modules into the kernel to apply patches that fix issues, especially security flaws. More that an ITP, our project is an Intend to Design, Implement and Maintain live-patching for the kernel, and this talk will present our current plans. We would like to present and discuss the ideas about the design of a first approach, and all the questions and concerns that come with this project. Those questions include how to triage the security issues, for how long to maintain specific kernel versions, taking into account the Debian kernel lifecycle. We aim at performing a live demo of a simple livepatch. The work-in-progress prototyping can be found in the Salsa linux-livepatching repo. This talk would be the opportunity to discuss live what would be the best way to support linux livepatching in Debian. 🧉 Date/time: Whenever in the afternoon would be good. I am working on this with Emmanuel Arias, who is in Argentina. This is: if there will be video streaming (or even he could attend via jitsi), we need it to be on the afternoon. Otherwise, there is no preference. Language: English Brief biography: Santiago became DD on 2006. He is now part of the Debian LTS/ELTS team by Freexian, providing security support for different Debian releases. Duration: 40 mins slot. But I could acomodate to 20 mins if preferred. Thank you for considering the talk!
