Current Dev Position: YP 5.0 M2 Next Deadline: 15th January 2024 YP 5.0 M2 build
Next Team Meetings: - Bug Triage meeting Thursday January 11th at 7:30 am PST ( https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09) - Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday January 9th at 8 am PST ( https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09) <https://zoom.us/j/990892712> - Twitch - See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester Key Status/Updates: - YP 3.1.30, 4.0.15 and 5.0 M1 were released - YP 4.3.2 is in QA - Rust was upgraded from 1.71.1 to 1.74.1 in master. 1.75 has reproducibility issues. - We were able to remove all exclusions on reproducibility in OE-Core and it is once again 100% reproducible. - The sstate-cache-management script was rewritten in python. It is possible there are regressions compared to the previous version, we’ll have to fix them as they’re identified. - A workaround for the long standing autobuilder failures on debian11 and ubuntu 18.04 was identified by preloading libgcc. This is now applied for python 3.8 and 3.9 versions within bitbake. - We have switched to the 6.6 linux kernel - There are patches proposing new “inherit_defer” syntax for bitbake to handle conditional inherits in a way more in keeping with user expectations. Please see the discussion on the openembedded-architecture list. - Functions related to signature/hash debugging had an API change resulting in a need to update bitbake and OE-Core together to allow the functionality to be improved. - Improvements to the CDN tests and signature debugging were merged which improve usability and also address intermittent autobuilder failures - Regarding bugs, even if you can’t fix a bug, submitting a failing test case that can reproduce the issue significantly improves the chances it might get fixed. Ways to contribute: - As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components! - There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers - There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.0. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.0_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs - We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this. - Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT. - Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics <https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/> - We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
