[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 398
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now,  "3.5, "3.6", "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW03`22

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M2

Next Deadline: 17th Jan. 2022 YP 3.5 M2 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Jan. 20th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Feb. 1st at 8 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Jan. 18th at 8 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.5 M2 is due to build this week
*   Work has progressed on inclusive language and an email should be out
this week about the proposals for that after discussions amongst the
volunteers who stepped up to work on it. Some obsolete variables/code have
already been removed as a prelude to this.
*   Patches to switch to setuptools and away from distutils following
upstream python's lead have merered (thanks Tim!). Whilst the issues are
resolved for core, work remains on other layers such as meta-oe.
*   The autobuilder does look improved from an intermittent failure
perspective but we're seeing hangs for unknown reasons on debian9
oe-selftest (seems python pthread mutex related) and on ltp on the arm
worker. Sadly the open issues are at an all time high.
*   Patches to disable the network outside of do_fetch have merged.
*   Support for improved SPDX info for the kernel has merged (thanks
Saul).
*   CVE issues had a bad week with further significant increases for
master and stable branches. Some patches have merged to improve master
(thanks Ross!).
*   Intermittent issues continue to be at record high levels and help is
very much welcome in trying to resolve them. 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.5. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.5_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW02`22

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M2

Next Deadline: 17th Jan. 2022 YP 3.5 M2 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Jan. 13th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Feb. 1st at 8 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Jan. 11th at 8 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.5 M2 is due to build next week
*   The autobuilder updates have now mostly stabilized and we are
potentially seeing a reduction in intermittent failures.
*   On modern kernels, we now have the capability within bitbake to
disable networking on a per task basis without extra user privileges. There
is discussion on the mailing list on how we should enable this and whether
it should be on an opt-in or opt-out basis. A second patchset has been
proposed for discussion where tasks using the network would need to be
explicitly marked as such.
*   The openssl and webkit reproducibility issues have been fixed.
*   We have also fixed the reproducibility issues with rust-llvm and
golang. With ruby docs disabled, this means we have no reproducibility patch
exclusions in OE-Core, thanks Alex Kanavin!
*   The "oldest kernel" setting used for qemu which is architecture
specific is causing issues for allarch packages but the various patches to
fix it have also caused other issues and highlighted gaps in our sstate hash
tests. There are hopefully now patches ready to merge to fix these issues
and the gaps in testing.
*   CVE issues against master have risen from 7 to 17 so help in
addressing those issues would be very welcome.
*   Intermittent issues continue to be at record high levels and help is
very much welcome in trying to resolve them. 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project:

*   There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 3.5. See:

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 396
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW01`22

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M2

Next Deadline: 17th Jan. 2022 YP 3.5 M2 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Jan. 6th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Jan. 4th at 8 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Jan. 11th at 8 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.5 M1 and YP 3.1.13 were released.
*   We have two weeks before the 3.5 M2 build.
*   The autobuilder has undergone significant changes. There are some
not unexpected  issues with the new distros now in use there such as python
3.12 deprecations which trigger warnings on Fedora 35. One of the workers
does appear to have what is potentially a hardware issue and not all the
workers have migrated to SSDs yet (about 50% so far) so there will be some
further disruption as this takes place.
*   On modern kernels, we now have the capability within bitbake to
disable networking on a per task basis without extra user privileges. There
is discussion on the mailing list on how we should enable this and whether
it should be on an opt-in or opt-out basis. There is a proof of concept
patchset for the opt-out basis and some good arguments for and against the
opt-in approach.
*   The new year triggered some reproducible build failures in openssl
and webkit due to changing copyright years in the source files, which is a
sign of how detailed our reproducibility tests are.
*   There is a patchset implementing reproducibility for go which is a
welcome improvement and much less invasive than previous approaches.
*   Intermittent issues continue to be at record high levels and help is
very much welcome in trying to resolve them. 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.5. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.5_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 393
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW51`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M2

Next Deadline: 17th Jan. 2022 YP 3.5 M2 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Dec. 23rd 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Jan. 4th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Dec. 21th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.5 M1 and YP 3.1.13 have both been through QA and are likely to
be released this week.
*   The next status report will be sent next year on 4th January with no
report next week (28th Dec).
*   We have maintenance to the autobuilder planned to fit SSDs to speed
up IO and update the host distros to more modern equivalents. This is
scheduled for next few days (22nd-24th) and the autobuilder will be
unavailable during the work. There may be bring up issues with the new
distros.
*   Intermittent issues continue to be at record high levels and help is
very much welcome in trying to resolve them. 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.5. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.5_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW50`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M1

Next Deadline: 6th Dec. 2021 YP 3.5 M1 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Dec. 16th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Jan. 4th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Dec. 14th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.5 M1 is in QA
*   YP 3.1.13 is due to build this week
*   We have maintenance to the autobuilder planned to fit SSDs to speed
up IO and update the host distros to more modern equivalents. If parts
arrive as planned, this is scheduled for next week (20th-24th) and the
autobuilder will be unavailable during the work. There may be bring up
issues with the new distros.
*   There were significant improvements in patch metrics this week with
large drops in both patches in the pending state and overlap number of
patches. Thanks to everyone who contributed to that!
*   As part of patch cleanup, some changes were made which could impact
other layers or our spectrum of support. The libtool prefix patches were
dropped as the need was largely obsolete by recipe specific sysroots,
hosttools and other developments and this may mean patches in other layers
can be dropped too. Some non-upstream invasive mips and sh4 patches were
dropped as they were either obsolete or there were less invasive ways to
handle them. 
*   CVE metrics improved this week with drops in open CVEs for both
dunfull and master.
*   Intermittent issues continue to rise and help is very much welcome
on these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.5. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.5_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 399
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer

Thanks,

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW49`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M1

Next Deadline: 6th Dec. 2021 YP 3.5 M1 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Dec. 9th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Dec. 7th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Dec. 14th at 8am PDT (

 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.5 M1 is due to build this week
*   YP 3.4.1 is likely to be released this week
*   There were some changes to the yocto-check-layer script to verify
more of the contents of README files which has led to improvements in a
number of layer README files.
*   The Yocto Project Summit and OpenEmbedded Developer virtual meetings
last week seemed successful, thanks to the organizers and presenters for
their hard work and presentations and everyone who attended to make it a
success.
*   We have continued to audit a number of the patches in OE-Core with
the removal of quite a number of obsolete patches and a number being
submitted to the appropriate upstreams. This will result in an improvement
to the quality of the core layer and make general maintenance easier going
forward. Any help, particularly from those with knowledge of specific areas
or upstreams would be most welcome.
*   We continue to see a reduction in the number of patches in the
"Pending" state. Many thanks to everyone who has taken the time to review
patch status and handle accordingly, particularly where they were accepted
upstream. This will significantly benefit the project in the long term.
*   Intermittent issues continue to rise and help is very much welcome
on these 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
*   SWAT handling of autobuilder issues has sadly not been functioning
correctly for the last couple of weeks with a large backlog of untriaged
issues.

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.5. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.5_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

*   Next week is the first milestone build for 3.5.
*   There are some major changes with python modules to be able to
support 5.16 and later kernels due to new dependencies

state. Many thanks to everyone who has taken the time to review patch status
and handle accordingly, particularly where they were accepted upstream. This
will significantly benefit the project in the long term.

list at:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/main
tainers.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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 391
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW46`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M1

Next Deadline: 6th Dec. 2021 YP 3.5 M1 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Nov. 25th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Dec. 7th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.3.4 was released
*   YP 3.1.12 has been through QA and is pending release approval.
*   YP 3.4.1 is due to be built after the current patchsets are reviewed
and merge.
*   Next week is the Yocto Project Virtual Summit

https://www.yoctoproject.org/yocto-project-summit-2021-11/ and OpenEmbedded
Virtual Developer Meeting on Friday

https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OEDVM_Nov_2021
*   CVEs in hardknott and dunfell rose this week due to 14 busybox
issues being added. Master remains roughly stable but we need to upgrade
golang to fix some, the other issues in master do not yet have fixes in
upstream (qemu, libarchive and nasm).
*   We continue to see a reduction in the number of patches in "Pending"
state. Many thanks to everyone who has taken the time to review patch status
and handle accordingly, particularly where they were accepted upstream. This
will significantly benefit the project in the long term.
*   Intermittent issues continue to rise and help is very much welcome
on these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.5. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.5_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.3.4 has been through QA and is waiting on release approval
after discussion of bug 14622, likely will be released.
*   YP 3.1.12 was built but had autobuilder failures so is also being
discussed.
*   A request was made to continue hardknott support in the community
and this was agreed until Feb/March next year but will not overlap the LTS.
*   Patches to guard against poor performance if servers are
unresponsive have been merged along with mirror urls for key components.
These should make the system more robust and allow builds to work with
infrastructure outages. Fixes are in master and dunfell with hardknott and
honister due to have the backports as well.
*   Packagegroups which are also allarch will now raise errors if they
depend on anything using the PKG: package renaming mechanism (e.g.
debian.bbclass renaming).
*   We continue to see a reduction in the number of patches in "Pending"
state. Many thanks to everyone who has taken the time to review patch status
and handle accordingly, particularly where they were accepted upstream.
*   Intermittent issues continue to rise and help is very much welcome
on these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.4. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 392
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

 

Stephen K. Jolley

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW45`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M1

Next Deadline: 6th Dec. 2021 YP 3.5 M1 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Nov.11th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Dec. 7th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Nov. 9th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.3.4 is in QA
*   YP 3.5 Planning document:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OXw-NKoL_Vb9RWI6sRPs3zTcAn4hHPtG0Y2BIs7x
Izo/edit?usp=sharing
*   There is a proposed syntax simplification on the
openembedded-architecture list with a patch on bitbake-devel. This would
phase out the use of append/prepend/remove operators with +=/=+ and mean it
would just work with "=" alone. We've not recommended this combination and
it removes a redundancy which confuses new users.
*   There will be some infrastructure down time at the end of the year
for the autobuilder and NAS, likely between the 26th and 31st December. This
will affect the autobuilder workers, downloads and sstate shares from the
project but not websites or git services. Last time we had a NAS outage it
caused some issues so we are trying to ensure those issues are fixed in the
stable branches and master with mirroring in place for key things like
uninative before then. If anyone is aware of any other failure modes we need
to address, please let us know.
*   Workarounds for the github protocol changes have been merged to all
stable branches and to master with url changes also being made in many
cases.
*   We have seen a drop in the number of patches in "Pending" state
again this week. Many thanks to everyone who has taken the time to review
patch status and handle accordingly.
*   5.15 kernel headers and kernels have been merged.
*   There have been a number of small but potentially useful bitbake
fixes to file checksum tracking, runall option handling and hung parsing
threads.
*   Intermittent issues continue to rise and help is very much welcome
on these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.4. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 397
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

 

Stephen K. Jolley

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW43`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.5 M1

Next Deadline: 6th Dec. 2021 YP 3.5 M1 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Nov. 4th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Nov. 2nd at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Nov. 9th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.4 has been released. Thanks to everyone who contributed!
*   YP 3.3.4 is due to build this week and will be the last planned
release of the hardknott series.
*   YP 3.5 Planning document:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OXw-NKoL_Vb9RWI6sRPs3zTcAn4hHPtG0Y2BIs7x
Izo/edit?usp=sharing
*   Git's default branch choice could potentially change in the future
and we're seeing service providers like github change policy too. To react
to this variability the project really needs to start encoding the branch
name used in SRC_URI rather than having a default of master. OE-Core has
been converted and there is a script ( scripts/contrib/convert-srcuri.py) to
help with conversions. Bitbake will start warning where this is unset soon
(patch in master-next).
*   Github has announced that git protocol support will be dropped as of
January. We use this in a number of our SRC_URIs. This has been discussed on
the architecture list and we have a plan to warn (and later error) on
problematic urls and magically map to the correct urls within bitbake. The
latter change is easily backported to older bitbake releases and will allow
older branches to continue to function without invasive changes. The
conversion script mentioned above can also convert github urls.
*   We have seen a drop in the number of patches in "Pending" state,
partly thanks to work from Richard to send libtool and gcc patches upstream
or otherwise clean them up. Others are also stepping forward to try and
reduce the number of patches in Pending state, help would be much
appreciated as spread over a number of people this could be quickly handled
and reduced.
*   Intermittent issues continue to rise and help is very much welcome
on these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.4. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 395
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW41`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.4 M4

Next Deadline: 29th Oct. 2021 YP 3.4 M4 release

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Oct. 14th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Nov. 2nd at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Oct. 12th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.4 rc1 has been built and is heading to QA
*   Patches to master for post-release have started merging, there is a
significant queue.
*   CVEs open against master have taken a small but worrying uptick this
week.
*   There were some last minute changes to the hash equivalence server
around the algorithm used for handling the hashes to try and ensure we get
the reuse of sstate objects users would expect. These did delay the release
but we believe this was worth doing to allow best use of sstate caches.
*   There were other key changes to the task reproducibility and to the
task outhash generation which were included in the release. These should
also significantly improve hash equivalence matching and artefact reuse.
*   Intermittent issues continue to rise, some seem to be issues coming
from the newer distros we've added to the autobuilder (Centos 8 stream,
Fedora 34 and Debian 11). Help is very much welcome on these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.4. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

 

YP 3.4 Milestone Dates:

*   YP 3.4 M4 is in QA
*   YP 3.4 M4 Release date 2021/10/29

 

Tracking Metrics:

*   WDD 2687 (last week 2671) (

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/charts/combo.html)
*   OE-Core/Poky Patch Metrics

*   Total patches found: 1318 (last week 1318)
*   Patches in the Pending State: 488 (37%) [last week 488 (37%)]

 

The Yocto Project's technical governance is through its Technical Steering
Committee, more information is available at:

 
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/TSC

 

The Status reports are now stored on the wiki at:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Weekly_Status

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs

fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 395
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com

like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW40`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.4 M4

Next Deadline: 4th Oct. 2021 YP 3.4 M4 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Oct. 7th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Oct. 5th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Oct. 12th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   The final 3.4 build is now due.
*   We should be in a reasonable position and ready for the 3.4 build,
except for the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH corruption issues we're seeing. Once those
issues and the related sstate reuse issues are fixed, we'll build 3.4. At
this point there are other patches but they're causing failures and clearly
aren't ready for merging.
*   There continues to be an sstate reuse issue where native sstate on
aarch64 and x86_64 hosts isn't generating correct hashes when combined with
hash equivalence.
*   Intermittent issues took a significant rise last week as SWAT caught
up with the backlog of issues. Help is very much welcome on these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.4. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

 

YP 3.4 Milestone Dates:

*   YP 3.4 M4 build date 2021/10/04
*   YP 3.4 M4 Release date 2021/10/29

 

Tracking Metrics:

*   WDD 2671 (last week 2676) (

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/charts/combo.html)
*   OE-Core/Poky Patch Metrics

*   Total patches found: 1318 (last week 1309)
*   Patches in the Pending State: 488 (37%) [last week 484 (37%)]

 

The Yocto Project's technical governance is through its Technical Steering
Committee, more information is available at:

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 392
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW39`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.4 M4

Next Deadline: 4th Oct. 2021 YP 3.4 M4 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Sept. 30th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Oct. 5th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Oct. 12th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.1.11 was released
*   We replaced the 5.13 kernel with 5.14 for 3.4 since 5.13 was already
marked EoL.
*   Changes to do_build task dependencies were merged. Some of these do
cause changes in behaviour but in general the behaviour should match what
people expect and only some CI setups would need changes. An example would
be where an image would have previously built all package backends but now
only the image's format.
*   The invasive pkgconfig-native dependency changes has been deferred
to the next release as people felt it was too invasive for 3.4. Meta-oe and
OE-Core are fixed ready though.
*   There is an sstate reuse issue where native sstate on aarch64 and
x86_64 hosts isn't generating correct hashes when combined with hash
equivalence.
*   Issues with pollution of /tmp with temporary files has been noticed
on the autobuilder. Help in cleaning this up would be very welcome.
*   Intermittent issues took a significant rise last week as SWAT caught
up with the backlog of issues. Help is very much welcome on these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.4. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

 

YP 3.4 Milestone Dates:

*   YP 3.4 M4 build date 2021/10/04
*   YP 3.4 M4 Release date 2021/10/29

 

Planned upcoming dot releases:

*   YP 3.1.11 is released

 

Tracking Metrics:

*   WDD 2676 (last week 2641) (

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/charts/combo.html)
*   OE-Core/Poky Patch Metrics

*   Total patches found: 1309 (last week 1303)
*   Patches in the Pending State: 484 (37%) [last week 484 (37%)]

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 395
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW38`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.4 M4

Next Deadline: 4th Oct. 2021 YP 3.4 M4 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Sept. 23rd at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)

*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.3.3 was released
*   YP 3.1.11 is in QA.
*   The public hash equivalence and sstate share highlighted some issues
where builds from sstate were not as optimal as they could be. There are a
number of related patches on the mailing list, some are more invasive than
others and are marked as RFC. They do fix and improve valid issues but some
may be too invasive at this point of the release.
*   The output hash timestamp issues were resolved and this has improved
state reuse.
*   Fixes for a number of open bugs in bugzilla have been posted but
some have implications for other layers (e.g. accounting site info in task
hashes).
*   Intermittent issues are ongoing and help is very much welcome on
these 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

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 389
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

 

Stephen K. Jolley

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW37`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.4 M4

Next Deadline: 4th Oct. 2021 YP 3.4 M4 build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Sept. 16th at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Oct. 5th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Sept.14th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.4 M3 has been released
*   YP 3.3.3 rc2 is in QA. 
*   YP 3.1.11 is due to build this week.
*   We now have a public hash equivalence service from the autobuilder
available and instructions on testing with this are on the mailing list.
With a couple of recent fixes, build from the autobuilder sstate are now
possible and quite effective.
*   Issues have been found in the output task hashes related to
timestamps and improvements for this are pending in master-next.
*   We have noticed bitbake was hiding deprecation warnings and plan to
fix that before the  release of 3.4. This may cause some warnings to become
visible before release that will need fixing but some of those issues will
be problematic with python 3.10 which will be released in the lifetime of
3.4.
*   Fixes for task failure handling on the console were merged into
bitbake to reduce duplicate output where log files may be printed multiple
times.
*   Expansion errors in bitbake should now print variable dependency
chains making them easier to understand/debug.
*   Intermittent issues are ongoing and help is very much welcome on
these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.4. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

 

YP 3.4 Milestone Dates:

*   YP 3.4 M3 is released
*   YP 3.4 M4 build date 2021/10/04
*   YP 3.4 M4 Release date 2021/10/29

 

Planned upcoming dot releases:

*   YP 3.3.3 built and in QA
*   YP 3.3.3 release date 2021/09/17
*   YP 3.1.11 build date 2021/09/13
*   YP 3.1.11 release date 2021/9/24

 

Tracking Metrics:

*   WDD 2623 (last week 2673) (

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/charts/combo.html)
*   OE-Core/Poky Patch Metrics

*   Total patches found: 1304 (last week 1303)
*   Patches in the Pending State: 484 (37%) [last week 482 (37%)]

 

The Yocto Project's technical governance is through its Technical Steering
Committee, more information is available at:

added and a new uninative built/released.
*   A fix for some of the multiconfig issues where deadlocked tasks and
tasks were showing errors being on both the "covered and not covered lists"
is available in master-next for review, hopefully addressing the issues that
were being reported. This was possible from a better test case that was
submitted enabling debugging.
*   Intermittent issues are ongoing and help is very much welcome on
these issues. You can see the list of failures we're continuing to see by
searching for the "AB-INT" tag in bugzilla:

[yocto] Yocto Project Newcomer & Unassigned Bugs - Help Needed

[Stephen Jolley]

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a
newcomer to the project would be able to work on in a way which means people
can find them. They're being listed on the triage page under the appropriate
heading:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs  Also please
review:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded and
how to create a bugzilla account at:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/createaccount.cgi

The idea is these bugs should be straight forward for a person to help work
on who doesn't have deep experience with the project.  If anyone can help,
please take ownership of the bug and send patches!  If anyone needs
help/advice there are people on irc who can likely do so, or some of the
more experienced contributors will likely be happy to help too.

 

Also, the triage team meets weekly and does its best to handle the bugs
reported into the Bugzilla. The number of people attending that meeting has
fallen, as have the number of people available to help fix bugs. One of the
things we hear users report is they don't know how to help. We (the triage
team) are therefore going to start reporting out the currently 383
unassigned or newcomer bugs.

 

We're hoping people may be able to spare some time now and again to help out
with these.  Bugs are split into two types, "true bugs" where things don't
work as they should and "enhancements" which are features we'd want to add
to the system.  There are also roughly four different "priority" classes
right now, "3.4", "3.5, "3.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent issues
being in "3.4" and then "3.5".

 

Please review this link and if a bug is something you would be able to help
with either take ownership of the bug, or send me (sjolley.yp...@gmail.com
 ) an e-mail with the bug number you would
like and I will assign it to you (please make sure you have a Bugzilla
account).  The list is at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage_Archive#Unassigned_or_Newcomer
_Bugs

 

Thanks,

 

Stephen K. Jolley

[yocto] Yocto Project Status WW35`21

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 3.4 M3 (Feature Freeze)

Next Deadline: 23rd Aug. 2021 YP 3.4 M3 build (Feature Freeze)

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday Sept. 2nd at 7:30am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday Sept. 7th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Weekly Engineering Sync Tuesday Aug. 31th at 8am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09
 )
*   Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   We are now at feature freeze for YP 3.4
*   Rust was merged into core, it was touch and go whether we
could/would or not. Unfortunately there was an error found after merging
with cargo-native on centos7 hosts which we still need to resolve before
building M3.
*   Fixes for glibc 2.34 and pseudo were merged however this uses a
binary shim and isn't an ideal way to solve the issues. We need to find a
way to have active development on pseudo with investigation into possible
replacement approaches.
*   A kernel issue introduced in recent kernel module versioning changes
needs to resolved before we can build M3.
*   The glibc 2.34 upgrade caused issues with docker and the clone3
syscall returning EPERM instead of ENOSYS. We will likely have to add a
workaround to our glibc until released versions of docker have the upstream
fix.
*   Intermittent issues are ongoing and help is very much welcome on
these 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

 

Ways to contribute:

*   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 3.4. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*   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/main
tainers.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.

*   YP 3.4 M3 build date 2021/08/23 (Feature Freeze)
