Key Status/Updates:

*       YP 4.2 M1 and YP 4.0.6 passed QA and are due for release.
*       Builds on the autobuilder are problematic at present due to
connection losses with the controller machine. We understand the cause and
will be migrating the controller to a new server/location to address this.
*       That, combined with OOM issues from recent bitbake cache changes
meant patches are merging more slowly this week.
*       There are a number of bitbake patches pending which are a bit more
invasive than usual. These are aiming to address:

*       memory issues seen with the recent cache changes and bitbake -S
*       UI hangs where the bitbake server has crashed/hung or otherwise
failed
*       issues where bitbake may have removed another server instances
bitbake.sock network socket file
*       console interaction issues where bitbake may not respond to Ctrl+C
*       event handler race issues around datastore accesses

*       The OE TSC decided in favour of adding export flag expansion despite
the performance impact so that patch will be queued.
*       CVE levels in master are concerning again
*       With some debugging, the bitbake.sock disappearance was potentially
identified and also issues with OOM process killing locking up bitbake's
server and UI were studied.
*       We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.
*       There will be no status report next week, the next will be 3rd
January 2023.

 

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>
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_4.1_Unassigned_Enha
ncements.2FBugs>
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/mai
ntainers.inc>
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:
