## Old Business
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Intel Driver -
|
||
|
|
* Sherif is working on this, has a prototype, needs DKMS
|
||
|
|
* Used `make spec` script in the branch to create spec, and import from there
|
||
|
|
* We think that upstream should adopt a different format/packaging methodology
|
||
|
|
* Perhaps [packit](https://packit.dev) could be helpful?
|
||
|
|
* What branch/version to use?
|
||
|
|
* rhel-specific branches say not to use them; use the 'backports' branches instead
|
||
|
|
* sherif appears to be in the right place
|
||
|
|
* Next steps:
|
||
|
|
* Neil to bring dkms from epel into projects
|
||
|
|
* Sherif to upload to public location for review and testing
|
||
|
|
* Jeremy to work on testing with some latest hardware
|
||
|
|
* AI SIG
|
||
|
|
* where will userspace tools live? HPC? AI? Both?
|
||
|
|
* Neil: it should be reasonable for us to have the ability to easily release a package in multiple SIGs
|
||
|
|
* NVidia GPU driver Testing -
|
||
|
|
* Did not get time to review [Chris's work](https://github.com/mghpcsim/gpu-testing/tree/master) - will try to review this cycle
|
||
|
|
* Kernel Cnode / MoS
|
||
|
|
* re-actioning - Jeremy to work on once he has some time
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## New Business
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Testing Warewulf - Brian
|
||
|
|
* Current plan: put the tests upstream into Warewulf repo, Testing team can pull from / engage with upstream
|
||
|
|
* What precisely are we going to test?
|
||
|
|
* Functional/E2E tests -- provision a small cluster, etc (see last week's [discussions](https://sig-hpc.rocky.page/events/meeting-notes/2024-02-22/#discussions))
|
||
|
|
* Future work can include e.g. slurm
|
||
|
|
* Chris to check on status of slurm
|
||
|
|
* Packages to bring in
|
||
|
|
* [List](https://sig-hpc.rocky.page/packages/) on the wiki; needs updating (along with the rest of the wiki)

## Open Floor
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Vulnerability in [lustre](http://lists.lustre.org/pipermail/lustre-announce-lustre.org/2024/000270.html) - related to user namespaces
|
||
|
|
* Sherif was working on lustre-server, but it's a beast
|
||
|
|
* DDN already builds RPMS, but... is it worth it to rebuild vs just use upstream?
|
||
|
|
* Sherif: thinks it makes sense to rebuild against our specific user/kernel space
|
||
|
|
* there are lustre-server for 8, but not 9, it appears.. why?
|
||
|
|
* documentation supports this but again.. why?
|
||
|
|
* Sherif to look into why lustre-server exists for 8 but not 9
|
||
|
|
* Next meeting in two weeks on Thursday, March 1
