#infix — Public Fediverse posts

Just in time for the weekend SinoVoip delivered both casing and an LTE module so I can pick up the modem branch of Infix OS again! 🎉

I know, I’m such a geek, but I really do believe in this little project to eventually replace #OpenWRT

Work in progress ... with the BPi-R4 support merged to Infix OS, it's high time for new cool features! 😎

Might have the best gig ever? I now get paid to read IEEE standards AND implementing them 🤩

Next stop for Infix OS before we maybe go visit a conference is to add 4G/LTE support (I know, but that’s all we can afford without corporate backing). Today we got access to the source code one of our customers use, so that should speed things up considerably 😎

I’m also working on the first WebUI but it’s slow since I’m no expert. Maybe it’s like they say, slow and steady wins the race?

Uh, spent the entire day debugging a random issue that only ever happens on our physical test rigs. None of the virtual (Qemu w/ qeneth) ones show it. Wasted the entire day on various theories so tomorrow I’m building my own physical test rig with some SBCs I’ve got at home.

Hope it'll be a fun weekend project! 😃 I also have another Banana Pi router board to add support for in #infix but that's background work and shouldn't be that hard since all of the device tree and driver work has been done already upstream.

Oh, and we merged Banana Pi BPi-R64 support today! 🎉 It's a bit older but still very capable, not to mention affordable little router.

On a mission to improve our blog, today I added some more bells a whistles to get post preview on social sites. Let's try it out here!

So we've since reverted now that we've learned about the new LTS cycles. A bit late, but at least before we did our release 😅

Amazing, my addition of DHCPv6 client support made it to Infix OS! Funnily enough, one of the regression tests I added for this was consistently failing on two of our HW test rigs. Turns out it was ... DNS. The clients tried to ping an fqdn where dnsmasq only returned an AAAA record. Things went smoother when I added a dummy A record 😄 (dummy = invalid IPv4 address).

So we made another release, nothing fancy, like the big operating systems out there. We just did another LTS bump of all critical components, fixed all the high-severity bugs, AND added support for yet another platform, the Banana Pi-R3 this time.

So, nothing spectacular, just plain boring stability that you'd expect from a critical load-bearing component in your stack.

Some things I'm especially proud of in plusminus (my Python package for parsing and evaluating infix notation arithmetic):
- |absolute value| expressions
- ° symbol as a unary postfix operator, to convert degrees to radians: sin(π/2) vs. sin(90°)
- exponents ² and ³
- √ and ³√ operators (both unary and binary, so you can write 2√2)
- mathematical constants e, π, φ, and τ
- set operators ∈, ∉, ∩, and ∪
- safe eval of untrusted inputs

For most (all) of our automated testing in #Infix we use #Python which is amazing in every way and really fit for purpose, but in the #sysklogd project (and many others) I rely on plain #POSIX shell scripts, and OMG it's so easy to forget how powerful #shell scripting is!

Spent my last day of vacation updating the R2S to support secure boot and read-only rootfs to make it a pure citizen of #infix really great feeling when it started the locked down U-Boot verified the signature of the primary partition and booted up perfectly 😎✌️

Almost done porting #Infix to our first #riscv64 target, a #VisionFive2 so cool 😎

Great feeling to have lawn mowed, gravel walk cleaned, parts of jungle area in the back reclaimed. All while contemplating the .cfg file upgrade mechanism in #infix

Yay, #Infix now has PAM support! This means we can proceed with the next steps in our journey towards a new kind of network operating system! 😍 #embedded #NETCONF #YANG

Aaaaand done! Just like mum used to make em, crisp and clear right out of the oven at GitHub

Another amazing release by the team. This time the focus was on adding OSPFv2 + BFD and Docker containers. Quite a neat feature for a switch or router.

At least the Docker container support for #Infix was merged today. Super proud of our little operating system growing up 😍

Trying to put together some material for a series of workshops on #infix there’s so much to cover but it’ll be mostly about #buildroot since that’s what we’re building on.

There’s something to be said about building on a solid foundation. But when you know, you know.

We also opened up the public project plan and roadmap for #infix today. We’ll be moving more private stuff here, and some new customers will be having direct access to the board.

Container support v1 in #infix is almost done. Only one little thing to address in the YANG model and a couple more regression tests.

First demo for end customer Thursday 😎

So nope, #skopeo doesn’t seem to support multi-arch manifest generation. Too bad, a really great tool otherwise. Had to resort to #buildah which works right out of the box in a GitHub action.

Easy peasy container squeezy 😎

That was the biggest hurdle to #Infix little AppStore! Onwards and upwards 😊

I mean, it’s near impossible to learn and understand all the nuances of YANG. Spent the better part of the afternoon trying to figure out a basic replacement deviation.

But hey, the alternative would be even worse. I’d much rather spend my time modelling my system than debugging if statements and custom regexps in my C code.
