| cabazon | hi, can I do cloud-init with unikernel (like Nanos) ? | 01:31 |
|---|---|---|
| meena | cabazon: if Nanos is POSIX based, has python3 support, then you could use it to bootstrap your Nanos VM with cloud-init | 08:55 |
| meena | however, you'd need to add support for Nanos as a distro: https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/tree/main/cloudinit/distros | 08:57 |
| meena | and the equivalent for networking… which should become easier, once I'm done refactoring cloudinit.net | 08:58 |
| aciba | Does anybody know whether the machine-id of an instance is generated by sysvinit or not and if so, where could I find documentation about it? I have been trying to find doc about it in the context of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1563951 | 09:25 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1563951 in cloud-init (Ubuntu) "Cloud-init does not initialize systemd machine id" [Wishlist, Confirmed] | 09:25 |
| meena | aciba: not by FreeBSD sysvinit | 10:13 |
| meena | aciba: https://wiki.debian.org/MachineId seems to be how it's done | 10:14 |
| meena | aciba: so it seems to be a dbus thing then? | 10:15 |
| aciba | meena: systemd ultimately generates via dbus if not provided by other means, I was wondering if sysvinit does something similar, but didn't find info about it | 10:18 |
| meena | aciba: it might, on some Linux distros, if you have dbus installed, link it in place | 10:19 |
| aciba | meena: so it is distro dependent. Thanks! | 10:29 |
| meena | aciba: most likely, i have no time to go poking | 10:30 |
| aciba | meena: no worries, thanks a lot | 10:31 |

| meena | do we have types for IPv4/IPv6? | 20:54 |
| meena | there's a module, ipaddress | 20:56 |
| meena | here's a prototype for the ifconfig parser: https://gist.github.com/igalic/0b326b003b31650f8dda05b5f09aa5a5 | 22:17 |
| meena | the emphasis, I suppose, is on "type" | 22:17 |
| meena | tomorrow I'm gonna write some unit tests with some of the pastes I've gotten, and then start writing actual code. | 22:18 |
| meena | a lot of questions can be answered from this datastructure… is_physical() for example is an interface that's got a sensible media type, a mac address, and *no* groups. | 22:20 |
| meena | but it makes me think i should attach our cloudinit.net methods to the IfConfig class, just so I'm not constantly shelling out to `ifconfig -a`, and parsing it again… because I don't know how sensible caching is here… | 22:23 |
