Hi All,

Thanks for attending the meeting today. As usual, here are my notes.

=== Discussion ===

Brenden:
- working on fc28 packaging
  - pr available
  - includes some python3 fixes
  - not to be included in next release tag :(
- v0.6.0 tagged

Yonghong:
- Some rewriter changes, working with Paul
- 4.17 changed some syscall parameters
  - some fixes in bcc, when __syscall prefix is seen
- tracepoint structure bugfix
- introduce option to change license option

Alexei:
- bcc release schedule
  - want to release within short timeframe of kernel release
  - have tried to keep backwards compatible, but still highly dependent on
    kernel

Saeed:
- xdp offloads update
  - working on examples for using the new api/metadata
  - perf numbers to be published after that
- currently experimenting with dynamic hw metadata
  - e.g.: vlan, csum complete, hash, flow tag
- can hardware provide offsets to tcp data as a new metadata field?

Okash:
- BTF
  - some WIP patches for pretty printing maps, currently for array maps

John:
- sockhash fixes from fuzzbot
  - bugs in locking and ipv6 ports
- Working on RFC for bounded loop support
  - need to expand from finding loop induction vars to all induction vars
  - llvm likes to build nested loops, and always jumps with a conditional in
    the middle, makes finding loop induction variables hard
  - also important to add overflow checks
  - possible to modify llvm to make verifying easier?
    - annotations? how to rely on them for safety...
    - introduce rep counter
    - more crazy ideas discussed - pass SSA, dom tree info to verifier

Brendan:
- bcc+btf support?
  - not yet, still working on dwarf->btf converter
  - pahole has some gaps to be able to convert kernel dwarf
    - probably good enough though
