Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M4 (Feature Freeze) Next Deadline: 2nd October 2023 YP 4.3 M4 build date
Next Team Meetings: - Bug Triage meeting Thursday October 26th 7:30 am PDT ( https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09) - Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday October 24th at 8 am PDT ( https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09) <https://zoom.us/j/990892712> - Twitch - See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester Key Status/Updates: - The YP 4.3 (M4) rc2 is in QA. - For the 4.3 release, the 6.5 serial port issues caused the rc1 build to fail. That combined with a serious patchtest behavior meant we rebuilt and submitted an rc2 to QA. There were several abandoned builds due to infrastructure issues. We are now using the upstream kernel serial fix. - Our release branch (nanbield) and master have now diverged to keep the patch backlog under control so development patches are merging to master. - Patchtest work is progressing and we’re nearly at the point where it will be replying live to emails on list. Examples of the responses can be seen on our test mailing list: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/test-list - Source mirroring and reproducibility testing for meta-openembedded are now available on the project autobuilder. - The project is now strongly suggesting source code repositories have a SECURITY.md file to ensure users know what to do if they encounter a security issue. We are trying to ensure all key project repositories contain these. Patches are welcome and we’re encouraging all maintainers to follow this best practice. - The layer index has seen development work to ensure it uses secure components, can handle changes in practice (such as main branches), can illustrate Yocto Project Compatible status and that the errors/warnings generated from builds are under control. Thanks Tim! - After consultation and discussions the project is now about to document its security processes to complete the work in this area. Please watch the mailing lists such as the architecture list if you have an interest in this area. 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: patchtest, layerindex, 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 4.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.3_Unassigned_Enhancements.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/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.
