| salih-emin | any news ? | 12:29 |
| cjohnston | eliasps, mzanetti I'm very sorry, however it appears as though we will not be able to get enough people here to hold the meeting. if we have one more person show up shortly we may be able to do it. | 12:34 |
| salih-emin | cjohnston any ways to contact them ? | 12:36 |
| cjohnston | I already pinged them above. | 12:36 |
| salih-emin | OK ! :) thnx | 12:36 |
| eliasps | cjohnston in case that the meeting will not start, what happens? The voting will be continued via e-mail? | 12:46 |
| cjohnston | eliasps: We normally reschedule for the next meeting. Doing it by email removes the ability for us to ask questions to get a better feel of who you are/what you do, it also removes the ability for you to have supporters at a meeting with you. | 12:47 |
| hggdh | cjohnston: I am in (if it helps any) | 12:47 |
| eliasps | Ok. Thanks! | 12:47 |
| cjohnston | Destine: iulian are you still here? | 12:48 |
| iulian | Affirmative. | 12:48 |
| cjohnston | eliasps: if Destine is still here then we are able to have the meeting | 12:49 |
| Destine | sure | 12:51 |
| hggdh | cjohnston: we have quorum! | 12:51 |

| hggdh | all: we are sorry for this delay | 12:54 |
| hggdh | Hello and welcome to the Ubuntu Membership Review Board for the 2200 UTC meeting for July 4th, 2013. | 12:55 |
| hggdh | We will attempt to get through all of the applicants that have added themselves to that list before today's meeting. If we are unable to make it through the entire list due to time constraints, then at the next meeting we will pick up where we left off. | 12:55 |
| hggdh | The format for the meeting is as follows: We will go through the list of applicants one by one, by date of application (FIFO). | 12:55 |
| hggdh | Each applicant should introduce themselves (1-5 sentences) and provide links to their Ubuntu Wiki page. After the introduction the members of the Membership Review Board will review the pages and, if needed, ask the applicant further questions. | 12:55 |
| hggdh | During this time it is encouraged for other members of the community to show their support for the applicant. Do not be alarmed if the members of the Membership Review Board are quiet during this time; they are most likely reading wiki/launchpad/forum/other pages and deciding how they are going to vote. | 12:55 |
| hggdh | When the board is ready to vote, they will publicly vote in the channel with either +1, 0, or -1 (for membership, abstain, and against membership, respectively). If the sum of those numbers is positive, then the applicant is now an official Ubuntu member! (feel free congratulate them!) | 12:55 |
| hggdh | (sorry, I am just logging in, waiting for my browser to start) | 12:55 |
| cjohnston | s/July 4, 2013/July 17. 2013 just for the log :-) | 12:55 |

| Destine | sorry for that. | 12:56 |
| hggdh | so, anyway, let's get started. mzanetti -- you are on | 12:56 |

| eliasps | Hello everyone | 12:58 |
| eliasps | My name is Elias, I live in Greece and I'm currently a math student. I am an Ubuntu user since 2007 and member of the Ubuntu-gr community since 2011. | 12:58 |
| iulian | Hi there. | 12:58 |
| eliasps | Here is my wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/eliasps and my account in launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~eliasps | 12:58 |
| eliasps | I activelly provide user support and giving advice in Ubuntu-gr forums and IRC on a daily basis, since my registration. | 12:59 |
| eliasps | Later on, I started translating Ubuntu and became member of the Ubuntu Greek Translators team. 2 months ago I responded to the need for new moderators in Ubuntu-gr forum and thanks to its members, I am now a global moderator of Ubuntu-gr forum and G+ Community. | 12:59 |
| eliasps | I am also the main desinger of Ubuntistas e-magazine, the magazine of the Greek Ubuntu community, which I bring into its final form by using LaTeX. Ubuntistas is available for free of course, at Ubuntu Software Center. ubuntistas.ubuntu-gr.org | 12:59 |
| eliasps | I try to participate in testing Ubuntu for bugs. I have installed Ubuntu 13.10 and currently trying out Mir display server. | 13:00 |
| eliasps | I keep myself updated for any tests that needs to be done. | 13:00 |
| eliasps | My main goal is to continue providing support to everyone in need inside and outside of the forums, keep promoting FOSS and especially Ubuntu in Greece and encourage new members to get involved as well. | 13:00 |
| eliasps | Today, I am in a daily contact with other activelly contributing members of our community and we are constantly trying to improve and expand our community's projects. I see some of them present here and I thank them for their support! :) | 13:00 |
| eliasps | Here are some photos of us at Ubuntu 13.04 release party in Athens: http://www.ubuntu-gr.org/content/ubuntu-release-party-raring-ringtail-athens-2013 | 13:01 |

| ev | I've also been working on getting automatic error reporting set for | 15:17 |
| ev | the server and mobile (building the settings UI, teaching apport to be | 15:17 |

| slangasek | [TOPIC] upstart and android | 15:27 |
| === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: upstart and android | ||
| slangasek | so today's in-depth topic is the upstart android bridge jodh is working on | 15:28 |
| slangasek | timely and topical! | 15:28 |
| * slangasek yields the floor to jodh | 15:28 | |
| jodh | slangasek: thanks. | 15:28 |
| jodh | you may have noticed that as of Monday the touch images are now running a Session Init. | 15:28 |
| jodh | All the android bits are now running in the android lxc container. | 15:29 |
| jodh | The issue this bridge is trying to solve though is that upstart services on the host side (ubuntu) need to know when specific android services in the container are "ready". | 15:29 |
| jodh | I outlined this in a post recently to ubuntu-devel: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2013-July/037469.html | 15:30 |
| jodh | Currently, some of the session jobs are using heuristics (ahem) to determine when certain android services are available but they are not reliable. | 15:30 |
| slangasek | heuristics like "sleep", I believe ;) | 15:30 |
| jodh | slangasek: right :( | 15:30 |
| slangasek | and I think the ofono job is also respawning messily when the rild socket comes and goes | 15:31 |
| jodh | so what this bridge needs to do is somehow detect when android services are ready and create an upstart event that jobs on the host side (potentially system and session I think?) can make use of. | 15:31 |
| jodh | slangasek and I are not terribly happy with the design as it stands so if anyone knows a better way speak up. | 15:31 |
| jodh | The plan currently though is to: | 15:32 |
| jodh | - create an *android* service that runs in early android boot (that is to say some time after the lxc container starts). | 15:32 |
| jodh | this service will run before any other android service and will "hook" into the service manager facility provided by android init (basically a block of shared-memory it updates when things change). | 15:33 |
| jodh | this service will also attempt to connect to an already-running bridge on the host side and squirt name=value pairs over the wire. | 15:33 |
| jodh | the bridge on the host side will then emit upstart events like 'android-service $name=$value'. | 15:33 |
| slangasek | so from what rsalveti had said, I thought the plan on the android side was simpler than that... I thought they were modifying android init to dump the android service states over a socket | 15:34 |
| * rsalveti checks backlog | 15:34 | |
| jodh | well, that was the original idea, but we don't need to modify androids init as it already provides this shared-memory facility (used by getprops/watchprops/etc). | 15:34 |
| rsalveti | slangasek: yeah, the additional service will be quite small, so don't need to change the init itself | 15:35 |
| slangasek | ok | 15:35 |
| jodh | so, on the host side, jobs should eventually be able to specify things like: | 15:35 |
| stgraber | jodh: I'm assuming the actual exchange between host and container is a socket created by the bridge on the host that's bind-mounted into the container? | 15:35 |
| rsalveti | but it'll be called when starting init | 15:35 |
| jodh | start on :sys:android-property init.svc.ueventd=running | 15:35 |
| jodh | when the ueventd (androids version of udev) daemon is running. | 15:35 |
| slangasek | why would it be bind mounted instead of using an abstract socket? | 15:36 |
| jodh | stgraber: yes, the host side will create the socket. I might need your help on the bind-mounting of it though :) | 15:36 |
| slangasek | you shouldn't need to bind mount anything | 15:36 |
| stgraber | slangasek: we tend to prefer bind-mounts of real socket vs abstract socket because if we ever choose to use a separate netns for the container, access to abstract sockets won't be possible (as they'd live in different namespaces) | 15:36 |
| jodh | we could use a real socket but security might be a concern. | 15:36 |
| rsalveti | yeah | 15:37 |
| stgraber | slangasek: the kernel has explicit logic in it for bind-mounted sockets to be accessible across namespaces so it's the preferred way of doing things | 15:37 |
| slangasek | stgraber: I can see that being desirable for containers generally, but we're already relying on abstract sockets for Touch | 15:37 |
| slangasek | and upstart makes heavy use of abstract sockets throughout - so I don't see the advantage of bind mounting | 15:38 |
| stgraber | slangasek: ok, I guess if we already really on access to Android abstract sockets from Ubuntu, then it won't make things much worse (and it's not terribly likely we'll turn on the netns for the Android container any time soon anyway) | 15:38 |
| rsalveti | jodh: do you know when you'll get enough time to start the implementation there? just so I can sync it with some other changes I'm doing in the android side | 15:38 |
| jodh | rsalveti: I need to discuss with slangasek before committing to timings. As mentioned, I've got a basic bridge on the host side and have been sniffing around bionic (somewhat misnamed perhaps? :-) to see how much effort it will be for me to write the android side. Oh and learning the Android.mk bits. | 15:40 |
| slangasek | rsalveti: so I've asked jodh to address autopkgtest of upstart first before doing any more feature work; I'd assume that puts the android bridge at least 2 weeks out | 15:40 |
| rsalveti | slangasek: jodh: right, ok, as this will be a major improvement :-) should fix all the races we're having in there | 15:40 |
| slangasek | jodh: so what are the bits of the design that you're not happy with currently? | 15:41 |
| slangasek | rsalveti: and the plan is still to make ueventd a "run-once" service in the android container? | 15:42 |
| jodh | well, I was hoping we could somehow make the android service manager accessible to the host to allow a single application to handle the injection of the events. | 15:42 |
| rsalveti | jodh: I can set up the git repo and a stub in there (with a stub .c/Android.mk) if that helps you | 15:42 |
| jodh | rsalveti: great - thanks! | 15:42 |
| rsalveti | slangasek: yes | 15:42 |
| rsalveti | slangasek: we'll get a init.svc.ueventd stopped | 15:42 |
| slangasek | jodh: ah, so you don't like having to run a daemon both in the host and in the container? | 15:43 |
| slangasek | rsalveti: right :) | 15:43 |
| jodh | rsalveti: btw - do we have any facility (like androgenizer) to handle autoconf packages in bionic land? | 15:43 |
| slangasek | I guess the problem with trying to do it outside the container is that it would be racy trying to start listening for events inside the container | 15:43 |
| jodh | rsalveti: autotools I mean | 15:43 |
| rsalveti | you can manage some services via the property system as well | 15:43 |
| slangasek | you really need something within the container to synchronously kick things off | 15:44 |
| rsalveti | jodh: no :-( all pure makefiles | 15:44 |
| jodh | rsalveti: ack | 15:44 |
| ogra_ | rsalveti, we should probably work out some sleeps or so to improve the races a bit, i recently start seeing ueventd acting up on maguro too | 15:44 |
| ogra_ | that wasnt the case before we switched to upstart sessions | 15:44 |
| ogra_ | (we got to fast) | 15:44 |
| rsalveti | ogra_: right, that's why I want us to have the bridge asap :-) | 15:44 |
| rsalveti | avoid more hacks | 15:44 |
| ogra_ | so that we can somehow survive these two extra weeks | 15:44 |
| rsalveti | ogra_: sounds fine, if that really helps us | 15:45 |
| ogra_ | dunno, i'll do some tests | 15:45 |
| slangasek | yeah, slowing things down with a sleep in the meantime is probably best | 15:46 |
| rsalveti | sleep, sed and grep, we can solve everything with those tools | 15:47 |
| slangasek | jodh: so I think it would be possible, and might reduce the memory usage, to have the synchronous trigger within the container be a one-shot program that connects to the host's socket with a simple "the container is ready" message | 15:48 |
| xnox | jodh: you should be able to simply $ apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-androideabi and do ./configure --host=arm-linux-androideabi; which will build for android user-space and link against bionic. Then just adb push your binaries and they will work. | 15:48 |
| jodh | one issue we have is how to tell the android service where to connect. We could hard-code that somewhere (in 2 places!) but maybe we could pass that in as an env var to the lxc container? Security team might want to get involved in this plan. | 15:49 |
| xnox | jodh: in terms of getting it on to the images, we have ability to fetch binaries like that without any Android.mk madness. | 15:49 |
| slangasek | so: host launches bridge; bridge listens on (abstract) socket; host launches container; container starts init; init runs "tell-upstart-I.m-here"; t-u-i-h connects to abstract socket and sends message; bridge receives message, connects to android init shared memory; bridge acks message to t-u-i-h; t-u-i-h exits; android init continues starting other services | 15:49 |
| rsalveti | xnox: but I'm hoping that the service will be small enough to be included in there by default | 15:49 |
| jodh | slangasek: not sure I understand - there are multiple android services that the service manager will notify us about. | 15:49 |
| xnox | jodh: caveats apply, that you are building against bionic with incomplete pthreads, no exceptions and partial implementation with many stubs everywhere. | 15:49 |
| slangasek | jodh: see above | 15:50 |
| rsalveti | xnox: until we do some more progress on your work and get that as default | 15:50 |
| xnox | jodh: or me/rsalveti other android gurus will package it later =) | 15:50 |
| jodh | and single-shot wouldn't handle android service restart scenarios. | 15:50 |
| rsalveti | jodh: an ENV var might me enough as a start | 15:51 |
| jodh | slangasek: I still don't understand what you've said. I believe ofono is currently the issue, but I was going for a generic solution that would inject upstart events for all android service changes. | 15:52 |
| slangasek | jodh: your current design requires two daemons, one inside the container and one outside the container. But the only reason you have one inside the container is to copy state from the shared mem region to the socket, *and* to ensure synchronization of the startup so that the bridge doesn't miss service start events that happen soon after android init starts because we aren't yet listening in the right place | 15:54 |
| jodh | slangasek: correct. | 15:55 |
| slangasek | jodh: the second of these can be addressed by a synchronous callback to an upstart socket by a one-shot program, instead of a daemon. and the first of these is unnecessary if the bridge just talks directly to the android shared mem interface. | 15:55 |
| slangasek | this makes it completely un-generalized, it will be an actual upstart-android-bridge at that point; but I think that's preferable | 15:55 |
| jodh | slangasek: the bridge on the host cannot talk to the android inits shared memory. | 15:56 |
| slangasek | why not? | 15:56 |
| jodh | because it's not actually shared memory in the conventional sense: init mmaps a file in /dev (tmpfs) then unlinks it. | 15:56 |
| slangasek | oh, really? | 15:57 |
| slangasek | so it's not using /dev/binder? | 15:57 |
| jodh | no | 15:57 |
| slangasek | oh fun | 15:57 |
| slangasek | then I guess I don't see a way around having two daemons | 15:57 |
| jodh | so, yes, we could tweak androids init to "play fair" as another option I guess, but I'd rather we didn't if possible. | 15:57 |
| slangasek | ok, so I guess the design holds up to scrutiny ;) | 15:59 |
| slangasek | unless anyone has any other ideas? :) | 15:59 |
| jodh | are there any security issues anyone can think of? | 16:00 |
| jodh | the host bridge will specify the event which stops any malicious android apps injecting random upstart events. | 16:00 |
| jodh | (since all they can specify is a single name=value env var for the fixed event) | 16:00 |
| slangasek | would android apps have access to this anyway? | 16:01 |
| slangasek | I'm assuming that every piece of this requires root privileges | 16:01 |
| rsalveti | yeah, as long we have just root-like apps setting up properties, we're good | 16:02 |
| jodh | I'm not sure if the android service could drop privs at some point. | 16:02 |
| rsalveti | because we can probably generate an event via 'setprop foo bar' | 16:02 |
| rsalveti | but that's something we can also block if not root | 16:03 |
| slangasek | yeah, it all seems fine to me | 16:03 |
| jodh | I was thinking the android service would only react to init.* events | 16:03 |
| jodh | can setprop still set those? | 16:03 |
| slangasek | once the code is there it might need a security review, but I don't see anything in the design that gives me security concerns | 16:04 |
| jodh | ok great. | 16:04 |
| rsalveti | jodh: I think it can, but we can also protect that if needed | 16:05 |
| slangasek | any other feedback for James? | 16:05 |
