About this talk

This talk, presented by Pierre-Yves Chibon and Leonardo Rossetti from Red Hat, explores how operating system integrity is achieved in the Red Hat In-vehicle Operating System (RHIVOS). It delves into critical topics such as filesystem integrity, tamper-proofing, and update mechanisms specifically tailored for automotive environments while adhering to ISO 26262 functional safety requirements. The speakers explain how RHIVOS, built on enterprise Linux foundations, adapts to automotive constraints through innovative solutions like OSTree for version-controlled filesystems and ComposeFS combined with fs-verity to ensure filesystem integrity. The session also discusses the importance of a robust chain of trust and introduces storage-efficient strategies that enable long-term support and certification in the automotive sector.
