Current Dev Position: YP 2.6 M3. - This is feature freeze for YP 2.6! Next Deadline: YP 2.6 M3 Build Target is Aug. 27, 2018
SWAT Team Rotation: · SWAT lead is currently: Amanda · SWAT team rotation: Amanda -> Tracy on Sept. 14, 2018 · SWAT team rotation: Tracy-> Armin on Sept. 21, 2018 · https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team Key Status/Updates: · We’re now into M3 feature freeze so new feature patches, particularly for unplanned changes will be much less likely to be merged until 2.7 now. · M3 has not been built yet. The main remaining missing feature is the multilib allarch change, most other things have now merged. · We’re aware of problems with openssl 1.1 in python 3.5 and are looking into ways of addressing this problem. · There were a number of recipe upgrades that merged slightly later than normal, the feeling being it was better to be up to date in this case, including some key components like busybox which contained security fixes. · Fixes for various build warnings merged. This included kernel config warnings, universe build warnings and sstate manifest warnings. Bugs have been filed for the remaining build warnings the autobuilder is showing and aiming for warning free builds looks realistic for 2.6 final release. · A bug was found in bitbake’s runqueue code which was leading to missing build artefacts in very rare circumstances (missing single sstate objects in complex dependency chains). The result was an sstate manifest warning and image postinstalls being deferred to on-target. · Various improvements to python were made to mitigate the performance issues seen by the introduction of profile guided optimisation (thanks Ross!) · There were problems found with busybox-syslog having installation order issues and changes were made to the packagegroups to mitigate the postinstall errors which were impacting automated testing. · The sstate hash equivalency code is still pending review and resolution of the filehandle upon fork issues. · We plan to build M3 on the new autobuilder codebase and infrastructure (based upon buildbot ‘nine’) and decommission the older buildbot ‘eight’ codebase ASAP. There is a display issue on the autobuilder to do with build object properties not refreshing, its cosmetic only, is cleared by refreshing the browser and we’re working with upstream to track down the issue.
