- FOSDEM lightning talk
- Use cases - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ULXHY0pdiLBlGZPN2Gj54XSvAo--UXKYr4opTrWSFMs/edit?usp=sharing
### Notes
- Christian or Eduardo will submit a lightning talk for FOSDEM
- Compatibility could be validated also against a host footprint
- Consider restricted namespaces in the compatibility spec
- for instance restricted GPU namespaces that could be maintained by specific group
- We can extend platform variants for other architectures similar to ARM
- https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/main/image-index.md#platform-variants
- Brandon described a potential implementation for runtime image selection:
- Platform could be extended for some very common use cases (e.g. CPU chipset)
- Everything else can be delegated to attestations on the descriptor listed in the Index
- Attestations can be defined by 3rd parties that manage their own prefix (Nvidia, MPI, HPC/supercomputers, etc).
- Runtimes can be configured to prefer images with specific attestations (provisioning a node with an Nvidia GPU would have the Nvidia attestation listed in its runtime preferences).
- Image builders, when they create more than one image for a specific platform, would include specific attestations for those additional builds that are used by runtimes to pick alternative options.
- Runtimes always default to picking the first matching image if they have no preference between multiple matches (allowing a generic linux/amd64 image to be listed before one optimized for a specific CPU chipset).

### Presentation/Discussion Agenda Items
- KubeCon Europe talk (19 – 22 March, 2024 · Paris, France) - "OCI Image Compatibility: Current Status And Expectations"
- Framework proposals: progress, deadlines etc.
### Notes
- Before framework proposals we should come up with use cases.
- High level use cases:
- Cluster provisioning
- Node selection
- Image selection (from a multi-platform manifest)
- May want to define how tools can annotate their images and how runtimes can leverage those annotations without defining all the possible annotation values. -Brandon
- It's possible we'll have more than one output (one for image selection and another for node provisioning). -Brandon

### Presentation/Discussion Agenda Items
- KubeCon Europe talk (19 – 22 March, 2024 · Paris, France) - "OCI Image Compatibility: Current Status And Expectations"
- Framework proposals: progress, deadlines etc.
- UEFI/BIOS validation
### Notes
- Signing and certification for encrypted images
- each time you you update the annotation you have to go through the procedure which is not ideal
- ideal to have artifact for independence
- for confidental use cases we should encrypt all image metadata
- if we go artifacts we should sign artifacts as well. Should the validation tool verify if artifact is signed?
- We should come up with deadline for framework proposals and discuss them on the meeting
- maybe 2 weeks would work?
- We should create validation tool that is vendor agnostic but should produce standard results
- similar like OPA works
- The burden of configuring the host versus configuring the operating system should rest with the engineer configuring the host

- Common compatibility fields
### Notes
- Adding a platform to artifacts is supported, but also images should be anything that can run on a container runtime, so verify what is meant by artifact.
- Archspec: <https://github.com/archspec/archspec>
- Consider creating proposals, similar to the referrers working group.
- Consider building a framework instead of trying to describe all use cases and subjects for compatibility. Specific groups could express what they need over the framework.

### Presentation/Discussion Agenda Items
- Common compatibility fields
### Notes
- Use Cases:
- Confidential Computing requirements
- Should we allow to define compatibility also for artifacts - the confidential computing requirements to pull distinct runtime artifacts, like SEV, TDX etc. based on hardware.
- Extensibility - provide the ability to define additional constraints in the compatibility schema
- Should we verify BIOS settings, some kernel configuration will not matter if specific BIOS settings are not set. This can result in false positive checks.
- Maybe we should set boundaries, for instance if kvm module is loaded we assume that the BIOS has enabled virtualization.

#### Actionable Agenda Items
- Discuss what participants expect from the working group
- Discuss Image Compatibility use cases
#### Presentation/Discussion Agenda Items
- _add your items_
#### Notes
- Is this for the index, image manifest, or even at the layer level?
- Disagreement on whether this applies to layers, image builders tend to output a collection of layers, desire to mix layers for some use cases
- Scheduling on nodes vs selecting image from index
- What level of detail is needed?
- Kernel
- features exposed some illumos branches/forks expose different capabilities
- versions required. allows retiering and updating of interfaces exposed by the kernel (we have versioned API's)
- Out of tree modules / hardware
- symbol versions, illumos API interface boundry is libc, thus it may be needed to inform the runtime about the type of libc required.
- Where will it be used?
- runtime image selection
- image distribution - discoverability
- scheduling (k8s scheduler)
- as metadata for the cluster admin to understand how to configure the cluster
- diagnostics/compatibility checks
- new tools, maybe back into other existing tools
- Where does this info live?
- artifact?
- baked into descriptor or index or manifest
- annotations: key/value pairs
- platform: can extend the json with needed structure
- Amending platform details after the image push?
- Would need to push a new index, but image manifest could be unchanged.
From the chat:
00:16:06 Bjorn Neergaard: They moved it under “Reactions” 😄
00:21:45 Bjorn Neergaard: Aha
00:21:49 Bjorn Neergaard: https://www.cyphar.com/blog/post/20190121-ociv2-images-i-tar is a pretty good writeup
00:25:06 Brandon Mitchell: "lazy loading"
00:28:34 Christian Kniep: Expectation of the container wrt to the host… correct
00:28:58 Bjorn Neergaard: Talked about Spack pretty extensively 😄
00:30:55 Vanessa Sochat: spack uses archspec to do similar assessments like that
00:32:14 Vanessa Sochat: lol this literally just happened to me
00:32:18 Bjorn Neergaard: 😄
00:32:19 Vanessa Sochat: just with arm :)
00:32:33 Bjorn Neergaard: Yeah, it’s the thing that is really painful for me with CRI
00:32:55 Bjorn Neergaard: Allegedly it was omitted on purpose so that it could be runtime-specific with annotations, but nobody has ever implemented, and good luck encoding that all into crictl
00:33:06 Vanessa Sochat: "wild west" of labels and annotations (brandon's phrasing)
00:33:10 Bjorn Neergaard: 100%
00:33:21 Bjorn Neergaard: I don’t think the K8s everything is an annotation makes sense to the runtime layer
00:33:44 Bjorn Neergaard: *sense all the way to the
00:36:05 Brandon Mitchell: First match, unless you know another entry is better, is what the spec defines.
00:36:17 Christian Kniep: So we need a matching object that describes the capabilities and needs of a system…
00:36:27 Bjorn Neergaard: Yeah, that’s what I call the “halfway” approach between spec-defined and implementation-defined 😄
00:38:32 Brandon Mitchell: I don't think runtimes want to query/pull artifacts of each index entry to determine which entry is best to run locally.
00:38:39 Bjorn Neergaard: I’m reminded of https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/contrib/check-config.sh
00:38:54 Bjorn Neergaard: And yes, as a runtime maintainer I’d want everything labeled on the package; I don’t want to have to open the box.
00:39:00 Christian Kniep: Replying to "I don't think runtim..."
I like to think we would like
00:39:07 Christian Kniep: Replying to "I don't think runtim..."
🙂
00:39:39 Brandon Mitchell: Reacted to "And yes, as a runtim..." with ➕
00:40:40 Bjorn Neergaard: Three main cases I can think of:
```
* Orchestrator scheduling (swarm/k8s/nomad)
* Runtime platform selection (containerd, CRI-O)
* Compatibility checks (diagnostic/vendor validation tooling)
```
00:41:47 Vanessa Sochat: yes! And the spec would not be the specific annotations, but the skeleton in which they are delivered
00:42:47 Vanessa Sochat: picking on kubernetes is good :)
00:45:20 Bjorn Neergaard: But you have to run that anywhere… Is the feature test a container? 😄
00:45:45 Bjorn Neergaard: I need to convince my colleague that designing a WASI component for interacting with the kernel is a good idea 😂
00:45:45 Vanessa Sochat: lol good point. I haven't thought that far!
00:46:11 Vanessa Sochat: We have reached infinite recursion!
00:46:13 Bjorn Neergaard: (so someone else gets to deal with syscall numbers being variable, the calling convention changing, etc etc...)
00:47:30 Marcin Franczyk: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eGlZOyJIp3ZLIcwblCK4WgfHskiOqAjpovWtDw9mMGU/edit
00:48:00 Marcin Franczyk: https://github.com/mfranczy/compat/tree/sync/pkg/scanner/linux
00:49:36 Vanessa Sochat: "bake" - containers are like cake
00:50:48 Bjorn Neergaard: I’m drawn back to https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/contrib/check-config.sh
00:53:24 Brandon Mitchell: I would say it's valid but many of us want to go further into the automation.
00:53:51 Bjorn Neergaard: 100%, there’s not a lot of value to me over the shell script if it’s not useful at the orchestrator level (bubbled up using NRI) or the runtime level.
00:54:27 Bjorn Neergaard: As an ISV, I just write a validation tool/image/script for customers to diagnose if their system is sane today. That’s more flexible than something that is a declarative manifest.
00:54:33 Bjorn Neergaard: (err, recovering ISV)
00:57:05 Vanessa Sochat: well you have to have tools agree on something
00:57:10 Vanessa Sochat: WILD WEST!
00:57:38 Bjorn Neergaard: My “more structured” should be “more constrained:” the data-model is very limited.
00:57:51 Bjorn Neergaard: (as opposed to allowing arbitrarily complex data structures)
00:58:06 Vanessa Sochat: lonely registries push to themselves
00:58:15 Marcin Franczyk: Reacted to "lonely registries ..." with 😂
00:58:47 Brandon Mitchell: Reacted to "lonely registries pu..." with 😂
01:01:26 Bjorn Neergaard: I still like the idea of discussing the partitions first (the “compatibility things”)
01:01:31 Bjorn Neergaard: As opposed to how we’d encode them/action on them yet
