DESCRIPTION:Despite being ordinary computers with an ASIC for switching\, i
 n reality network hardware must still be treated differently from normal s
 ervers. In recent years a lot has improved\, and vendors offer white box s
 witches\, allowing users to install a (network) operating system of their 
 choice. Of course\, the NOS needs to support the firmware interface for th
 e particular ASIC\, and this is not standardized: swtitchdev\, DSA\, SAI 
 – none of them supporting all devices. Due to SONiC dominance\, a lot of
  vendors seem to support SAI (Switch Abstraction Interface). But SAI requi
 res a proprietary external Linux kernel module. On the NOS side\, Open Net
 work Linux was abandoned\, and Azure’s SONiC is the new popular kid on t
 he block\, running a Docker daemon. There are other differences in the net
 work hardware ecosystem: For example ONIE as the bootloader environment. A
 lso working with upstream and using established software developing practi
 ces are lacking\, resulting in a maintenance burden. Projects like DENT or
  OpenWrt go one step further by only supporting upstream Linux kernel inte
 rfaces\, but now dentOS is also going to support SAI.\n\nThis talk gives a
  short introduction into the network operating systems\, and then focuses 
 on DENT with the ONL fork dentOS\, and shares experiences. Curiously\, pro
 blems how to treat firmware blobs and discussions about what distribution 
 to use as a base\, are not unknown to these projects either.

DESCRIPTION:In light of the climate crises\, and despite hardware getting f
 aster and faster\, fully powering down systems and back on on demand – t
 he obvious choice – is still inconvenient\, as boot times are still very
  long. Even ChromeOS still has not lowered its limit from ten seconds sinc
 e years. Show the current status of the hobby project on x86 hardware\, an
 d give an overview of recent Linux kernel developments getting rid some of
  the delays.
