+In the week following link:https://www.bsdcan.org/2025/[BSDCan 2025], a hackathon took place in the Kitchener-Waterloo area.

+==== Pictures of the hackathon
+
+Pictures of the hackathon are collected link:https://people.freebsd.org/~emaste/hackathon202506/[here].
+
+National FreeBSD day landed sometime during the hackathon, so Charlie Li treated us to a great DJ set to celebrate, mixing entirely on FreeBSD at an arcade bar in Waterloo :)
+
+==== The work done during the hackathon
+
+===== WiFi Testbed (Li-Wen Hsu)
+
+- The hardware of a proof-of-concept wireless has been set up in Foundation's Kitchener office.
+- The current setup is simple:
+ - One baremetal machine has multiple wireless interface and,
+ - One access point is also connected to the machine via a serial console and a private testing network
+- Currently we have following hardware to be passthru to bhyve VM provisioned with the image from link:https//artifact.ci.freebsd.org[Artifact server of FreeBSD CI]
+ - Intel AX210
+ - Realtek RTL8812AU
+- The work continues on connecting it to link:https//ci.freebsd.org[FreeBSD CI cluster] as a downstream job after standard tests finishes.
+
+===== Installer (Joseph Mingrone, Ed Maste, Aymeric Wibo)
+
+- Go through installer step-by-step and create the link:https://wiki.freebsd.org/ImproveInstaller[Improving the Installer] wiki page with the notes we collected.
+- lualoader: Add distinct brand for installer (Make it obvious to users that the system is booting into the installer.)
+ Patch: link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D51001[]
+
+===== pkgbase (Ed Maste)
+
+- man:bsdinstall[8]: Default to pkgbase if media contains base packages
+ Patch: link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D50467[]
+- man:release[7]: Add set -e to abort upon failure
+ Patch: link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D50383[]
+
+===== Landing scheduler run queue patches (Olivier Certner)
+
+- Land all scheduler runqueue patches.

+
+===== Capsicum (Ed Maste)
+
+- Improvements to the man:capsicum[4] manpage.
+ Patches: link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D50855[], gitref:ce65ff203a4f7ce59c8782f87d90a657f7ccbc46[repository=src]
+- Capsicumize man:beep[1] to serve as an easy example of Capsicum.
+ Patches: link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D50709[]
+
+===== s2idle/S0ix/USB4 (Aymeric Wibo, Sheng-Yi Hung)
+
+- Fix some more USB4 driver panics.
+- Discuss how s2idle should work w.r.t. the scheduler with Olivier & Mark, and temporarily implement "idle" state for the scheduler (where it just always chooses the idle thread).
+- Extend amdgpio driver to service all GPIO interrupts (requirement for S0i3 on AMD).
+ We were also looking into how we can consume GPIO interrupts in device drivers on x86 for stuff like reducing the latency of the Framework trackpad with Sheng-Yi.
+- Implement some more S0i3 debugging features for AMD to help us debug why we would not be entering S0i3.
+
+===== Ports (Joseph Mingrone)
+
+- [.filename]#Mk/Scripts/qa.sh#: Fix false positives in LIB_DEPENDS warnings
+ Patch: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D50860[]

+ Patch: gitref:4170f65753805c08842bd6b200efd8d5ae20d464[repository=ports]
+
+===== Miscellaneous (Ed Maste, Olivier Certner, Sheng-Yi Hung, Li-Wen Hsu)
+
+- Enable sccache support as an alternative to ccache when building (through `WITH_CCACHE_BUILD` environment variable).
+ Commit: gitref:10cb3979a9bde6c8e441e3ba4aa5fd09963c484f[repository=src]
+- Discussion on the CPPC implementation (Sheng-Yi, Olivier), see in particular https://reviews.freebsd.org/D49587[D49587].
+- Other various fixes.
+ Patches: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D50876[D50876], gitref:956100d60fa86daebc1bd46ea62f207f6b54d93d[repository=src], gitref:fc77abfd1e62751b0c76cd5d8ef3299b8ca398c6[repository=src], https://reviews.freebsd.org/D50938[D50938], gitref:6d8cfd29d477c64376b3e286946cddb93c7373c5[repository=src], gitref:4f33d073003ccd91390709e14e5c1bf1f0c1c85c[repository=src]
