[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 408
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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 21 February 2023 (WW08)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.2 M3 Feature Freeze

Next Deadline: 20th February 2023 YP 4.2 M3 Build

 

Next Team Meetings:

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

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday February 21st at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.1.23 is due to be released.
*   We are due to build M3 and are at feature freeze for YP 4.2.
*   We saw further version upgrades this week and a number of bitbake
hang fixes or fixes for exits with no output. There are a few remaining
issues to conclude then we should be in a good position to build M3.
*   CVE levels in master are reducing. The remaining concern is the
large number of linux-yocto CVEs which have shown up since we last updated
the exclusion lists. The full list can be seen here:

https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/cve-status-master.
txt

Help in resolving these so we can remove the exclusion on linux-yocto on all
reports would be appreciated.

*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

 

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 4.2. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_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.
*   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.

[yocto] Yocto Project Status 28 February 2023 (WW09)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.2 M4

Next Deadline: 3rd April 2023 YP 4.2 M4 Build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday March 2nd 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday February 28th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.2 M3 is in QA
*   YP 4.0.8 is ready to be built
*   YP 3.1.23 was released
*   We are now in feature freeze for 4.2. There are some patches which
we will take in M4 such as the CVE fetching changes.
*   We now have the ability to track regression changes between releases
using resulttool for example with a command like "yocto_testresults_query.py
regression-report 4.2_M1 4.2_M2". This did already spot one regression in
quilt ptest which we've tracked down and fixed.
*   A regression report was included with M3 using the above tool
automatically:

https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/releases/yocto-4.2_M3.rc1/testresults/testr
esult-regressions-report.txt - some tweaks are needed but it is good
progress.
*   CVE levels in master look much better, thanks to everyone who
helped. We are in the process of including kernel CVEs in these reports for
master going forward.
*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.
*   We have had patches from a few new submitters, this is very very
much appreciated and great to see. Some bugs have moved forward as a result
of this. All of these changes combine together to make the project what it
is!

 

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 4.2. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_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.
*   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.

[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 423
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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 7 March 2023 (WW10)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.2 M4

Next Deadline: 3rd April 2023 YP 4.2 M4 Build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday March 9th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday March 7th at 8 am PDT (

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.2 M3 was released
*   YP 4.0.8 is in QA
*   YP 4.1.3 is ready for QA
*   We are now in feature freeze for 4.2. We are continuing to merge
some version upgrades where the stability of the release is unlikely to be
affected.
*   Patches continue to merge into master and there are some good bug
fixes in there
*   There is a bugfix for bitbake's XMLRPC server mode but the lack of
bug reports raise a concern about how widely it is being used.
*   There are a number of ptest related issues (mostly test naming)
which the new regression reports are highlighting. If anyone is interested
in helping clean up and improve the ptests and toolchain tests, please let
us know.
*   CVE levels in the LTS releases are at higher levels than they have
been for a while which is a concern.
*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

 

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:

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:

[yocto] Yocto Project Status 14 March 2023 (WW11)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.2 M4

Next Deadline: 3rd April 2023 YP 4.2 M4 Build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday March 16th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday March 14th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.0.8 was released
*   YP 4.1.3 passed QA and is due to be released
*   We are now in feature freeze for 4.2 and preparing for final build
in ~2.5 weeks
*   Patches continue to merge into master and there are some good bug
fixes in there. Some version upgrades are merging either due to low risk or
due to the likely need from other components during the lifetime of the
release.
*   Support for parallel ptest execution with a ptest per image was
merged, along with various dependency fixes for the ptest packages to ensure
this works as expected. This takes ptest execution time from 3.5 hours to
around 45 minutes on the autobuilder.
*   The bugzilla was upgraded to the version 5 series which brings
access to the REST API and functionality useful to the triage team. Testopia
was dropped.
*   Regression reports for release builds are now looking fairly
accurate
*   CVE levels in the LTS releases are at higher levels than they have
been for a while which is a concern.
*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

 

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 4.2. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_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.
*   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:

Tha

[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 423
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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 28 March 2023 (WW13)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.2 M4

Next Deadline: 3rd April 2023 YP 4.2 M4 Build

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday March 30tjh7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday March 28th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 3.1.24 was released
*   YP 4.2 final release is due to build next week
*   Before final release we'd like to get updates to use the new CVE
database format merged, there are also some rust fetch/tooling improvements
that may also be potential merge candidates.
*   The glib-2.0 upgrade has reported issues with the malloc changes so
we will defer that until after release.
*   There is some testing of the autoconf 2.73 pre-release version
(2.72c) happening to ensure we're in a good position when it finally does
release, issues are being reported upstream.
*   The project autobuilder controller is now on the latest upstream
buildbot version. Our plugins and other integration were updated to match.
*   Our autobuilder console UI has had some improvements to fix bug and
improve the layout (

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/console)
*   poky-bleeding should now be usable but hasn't been integrated into
our CI yet.
*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

 

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 4.2. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_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.
*   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:

[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 425
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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

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 426
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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

[yocto] Yocto Project Status 11 April 2023 (WW15)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.2 M4

Next Deadline: 28th April 2023 YP 4.2 Release

 

Next Team Meetings:

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

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday April 11th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.2 rc2 is now in QA
*   YP 4.0.9 is being built
*   Due to some concerns about crate urls, 4.2 rc1 was abandoned and rc2
built.
*   linux-yocto is no longer excluded from CVE reporting on master,
thanks to all who have helped triage the CVE list for the kernel.

 

https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/cve-status-master.
txt

*   We're happy to announce that Steve Sakoman is going to be supporting
the mickledore stable series.
*   The langdale release series will now wind down after one final point
release
*   Patches should soon start flowing into master for 4.3
*   The project is looking at a funding opportunity where projects with
a specific development focus may be able to be funded. Ideas coming to mind
might include bringing back patchtest or toaster's automated testing. If
anyone has ideas that we'd be able to find people to work on (contract
based?) within a reasonable timeframe, we'd be interested to hear the things
people feel would make the biggest difference to the project.
*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

 

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 4.2. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_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.
*   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.

[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 429
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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:

[yocto] Yocto Project Status 25 April 2023 (WW17)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M1

Next Deadline: 28th April 2023 YP 4.2 Release

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday April 27th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday April 25th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.2 moved to an rc3 build since a kernel/qemu/drm issue was found
which warranted a rebuild. This has not been picked up by QA yet.
*   YP 4.0.9 was released.
*   Since 4.2 rc3 was being built with kennel stable series updates,
some CVE fixes and a high priority bitbake bug were also fixed.
*   Patches are merging into master for 4.3.
*   We'd like to thank Paul Eggleton for some great work on the
documentation and release notes and catching a number of areas where we
could improve the documentation for things that changed in this release.
*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

 

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 4.2. See:

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_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.
*   Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder

[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 429
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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 2 May 2023 (WW18)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M1

Next Deadline: 5th June 2023 YP 4.3 M1 build date

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday May 4th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday May 2nd at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.2 rc3 has passed QA and is pending TSC approval for release.
*   YP 4.1.4 is now in QA.
*   Patches are merging into master for 4.3.
*   Emails to all currently listed maintainers have been sent to check
the entries are up to date. If anyone is interested in taking on maintenance
of any unassigned recipes, please send a patch.
*   We discovered warnings were not being correctly handled on the
autobuilder after the buildbot controller upgrade. That should now be fixed
but it means some regressions may have crept in, we're working to confirm if
that is the case or not.
*   We're in the process of adding checks to ensure that ptests
returning no test results trigger warnings. This should ensure we catch this
situation earlier since ptests should always return at least one test
result. python3-cryptography is an example of a recipe that recently
regressed unnoticed in this way.

 

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_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.
*   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 
*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M1

Next Deadline: 5th June 2023 YP 4.3 M1 build date

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday May 11th 7:30 am PDT (

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

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.2 has been released, thanks to everyone who has worked on it!
*   YP 4.1.4 is due to be released
*   YP 3.1.25 is in QA
*   The warnings issues on the autobuilder have mostly been resolved but
there are a number of lingering intermittent issues that we're still working
through.
*   Patches have been merging into master but there continues to be a
number of issues being found in testing which does slow down the process.
*   There are time64 patches being proposed to handle Y2038 issues on 32
bit architectures which likely need further discussion since the compiler
flag changes aren't without risk and potential side effects.
*   The minimum kernel version for OE-Core is now set at 5.15 as part of
the time64 work but also to aid performance.
*   We're aiming to improve documentation as we go along in this
release, please keep this in mind when sending patches!

Ways to contribute:

[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 433
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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 23 May 2023 (WW21)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M1

Next Deadline: 5th June 2023 YP 4.3 M1 build date

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday May 25th 7:30 am PDT (

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

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.0.10 is ready to release after TSC review
*   YP 4.2.1 is in QA

*   M1 is approaching fast (two weeks left), so please try and get any
major changes submitted soon.

*   Patches have been merging into master, thanks to everyone for both
review feedback and iterating on patches
*   We need to upgrade to gcc 13 soon, this is blocking enabling Fedora
38 workers on the autobuilder as we don't have a compatible uninative
release.
*   There are time64 patches being proposed to handle Y2038 issues on 32
bit architectures which likely need further discussion since the compiler
flag changes aren't without risk and potential side effects.
*   We're aiming to improve documentation as we go along in this
release, please keep this in mind when sending patches. Adding to the
documentation as we go will make the release a lot easier.
*   Autobuilder instability is a concern as known good builds are
regularly hitting issues, particularly the "ubuntu 20.04 libgcc not found"
issue which is likely python version specific but there are other
intermittent issues too. As an example, three of the last nightly builds
failed in succession. Due to the intermittent nature of these bugs, few
people are willing to spend time on them but they mean patches are being
very slow to merge. Help is very much needed but it is hard to be specific
about where/what the issue is unfortunately.

 

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.

[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 429
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,  "4.2", "4.3", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.2" and then "4.3".

 

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 30 May 2023 (WW22)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M1

Next Deadline: 5th June 2023 YP 4.3 M1 build date

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday June 1st 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday May 30th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.2.1 and YP 4.0.10 have been released

*   M1 is due to build next week.
*   We upgraded to gcc 13 after fixes for the major issues in OE-Core
were found
*   New uninative releases were made to enable support on distros where
they're upgraded to gcc 13 versions.
*   The 5.15 kernel was dropped from master in preparation for adding a
new kernel version later in the development cycle.

*   There is discussion about changing the CVE_CHECK_IGNORE
functionality, please comment in the discussion on the list if you have
opinions on what we should do there.
*   FILE_LAYERNAME support was added to bitbake, paving the way for
layer specific override support.
*   Autobuilder intermittent issues continue to be an issue. One set of
intermittent issues was tracked down in glib tests and a fix was accepted
upstream but other issues remain.
*   A number of recent changes combined together to lower our overall
patch count to the lowest we're seen in years, it is great to see patches
improving over time, albeit slowly!

 

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_Enhan

*   We'd welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the
list at:

[yocto] Yocto Project Status 6 June 2023 (WW23)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M1

Next Deadline: 5th June 2023 YP 4.3 M1 build date

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday June 8th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday June 6th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.3 M1 is due to build this week
*   The remaining issue with SPDX manifest generation on the autobuilder
should have been identified and fixed so we plan to enable the create_spdx
class by default in poky assuming a successful test build.
*   The recent 6.1 kernel stable updates appear to be causing a couple
of different intermittent autobuilder issues. We're working to try and get
to the bottom of that, we're hoping further updates to the 6.1 series may
pull in fixes for the regressions.
*   Patch merging has been slow this week as we struggled to bisect
failures down to the problematic commits (potentially the sqlite version
bump).
*   We continue to see problematic intermittent failures on the
autobuilder. We're struggling to make progress against these and they are
feeling overwhelming. We're open to ideas on how we might try and address
them. Experience shows that if left unresolved/ignored, people do end up
hitting them in real world usage or during testing of their own products.

*   There are a number of patches still queued in master-next as it is
unclear whether they're ready for various reasons. For bandwidth reasons
these will likely be deferred to M2, people are just stretched too thinly to
do otherwise, frustrating as it is.
*   Big thanks to Ross for helping look at the high number of CVE issues
open against master.

 

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_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.
*   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.

[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 439
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,  "4.3", "4.4", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.3" and then "4.4".

 

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 13 June 2023 (WW24)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M2

Next Deadline: 17th July 2023 YP 4.3 M2 build date

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday June 15th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday June 13th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.3 M1 has passed QA and is due to release
*   The 6.1 kernel continues to have stability issues which appear to be
introduced between 6.1.26 and 6.1.28, we've not seen the issue so far with
6.1.27. We know it happens on 32 and 64 bit x86 and occurs even with just
one CPU enabled. This has not been seen by other kernel users which is a
concern too.
*   We continue to see problematic intermittent failures on the
autobuilder. We're struggling to make progress against these and they are
feeling overwhelming. We're open to ideas on how we might try and address
them. Experience shows that if left unresolved/ignored, people do end up
hitting them in real world usage or during testing of their own products.
*   The autobuilder test matrix has seen some revisions:

*   to split out toolchain testing to a separate target
*   remove some duplicate testing for efficiency
*   optimize reproducibility testing to improve speed

We're also about to add limited meta-clang testing to the test matrix.

These should improve autobuilder test execution time but has made one test
race issue much more common which will need to be addressed.

 

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_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.

intermittent issues. You can see the list of failures we're continuing to
see by searching for the "AB-INT" tag in bugzilla:

*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

[yocto] Yocto Project Status 20 June 2023 (WW25)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M2

Next Deadline: 17th July 2023 YP 4.3 M2 build date

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday June 22nd 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday June 20th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.3 M1 was released
*   YP 3.1.26 is in QA
*   The project has some exciting plans in progress and we're now in the
fortunate position of seeking quotations for some development work. For more
details please see this page on our website:

 

https://www.yoctoproject.org/community/yocto-project-engineering-request-for
-quotation/

*   The automated regression reporting saw some issues for the M1 report
so this is being worked on.
*   There are pending patches to enable layer- overrides
which is particularly useful for enabling layer specific QA checks. This
does bring some changes of behavior for QA checks on bbappends
*   usrmerge is now enabled by default for poky-altcfg, in preparation
for the changes being required by systemd.
*   The 6.1 kernel hang regression was identified and we reverted the
problematic patch until the correct fix merges and filters through the
stable kernel trees.
*   There have been a lot of ptest issues this week, not least after
issues with "No-section" tracebacks were fixed, leading to an increase in
reported failures as that was masking issues. There are some fixes proposed
for ptest-runner but further help is needed on the various failures.
*   We have been approached by a potential new maintainer for the
eclipse plugins. There were some questions about who was still using it and
what the test matrix should look like so please let us know if you are and
we can connect you.
*   The tunctl functionality for runqemu has been dropped as the ip tool
can handle everything needed.

 

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_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.
*   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 
*   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

[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 432
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,  "4.3", "4.4", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.3" and then "4.4".

 

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 27 June 2023 (WW26)

[Stephen Jolley]

Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M2

Next Deadline: 17th July 2023 YP 4.3 M2 build date

 

Next Team Meetings:

*   Bug Triage meeting Thursday June 29th 7:30 am PDT (

https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)
*   Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday June 27th at 8 am PDT (

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

 

Key Status/Updates:

*   YP 4.0.11 is in QA
*   YP 3.1.26 is due to be released
*   We're pleased to announce that kirkstone LTS releases will be
extended from 2 to 4 years and that project LTS releases will default to 4
years in future.
*   A lot of people have vacation booked for next week so we're planning
to skip a week with status reports and project meetings.
*   We have an open request for quotation for several engineering
tasks/projects:

https://www.yoctoproject.org/community/yocto-project-engineering-request-for
-quotation/
*   We have merged changes to make 64 bit time_t the default for several
32 bit platforms as part of our plan to handle Y2038 issues. This does break
ABI and may need careful handling for those with binaries where
compatibility is needed.

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 433
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,  "4.3", "4.4", "4.99" and "Future", the more pressing/urgent
issues being in "4.3" and then "4.4".

 

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

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

All,

 

The triage team is starting to try and collect up and classify bugs which a

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:
