*YP M3 rc2 has been through QA. We have resolved the beaglebone and bitbake UI issues, the ptest issues remain and need attention in M4. It is likely M3 rc2 will be released.
*YP M3 has been released
*YP 3.1.3 is currently going through QA.
*YP 3.1.3 is out of QA, there were questions about a failing ptest but those are due to a test issue, not a regression so its likely to be released imminently.
*Unfortunately intermittent autobuilder issues, whilst reduced, do still remain.
*We are now due to build M4 rc1. The builds will happen when the current pseudo issues are resolved to a suitable conclusion for the release.
*Issues with file mode corruption in pseudo have been identified and we’re concerned this may be going undetected in the majority of cases. The issue uncovered would explain several odd bugs we’ve seen over the last few years where file mode bits have disappeared. There are some experimental pseudo patches available that reduce the impact and frequency of these issues but as yet we don’t have a full solution. We’re hampered by a lack of a pseudo maintainer with both the availability and experience to be able to help.
*As mentioned above, there is a continued concern about file mode corruption issues in pseudo. We do now have patches which reduce the corruption window by orders of magnitude by they don’t entirely remove the potential race. Test builds have been seeing issues in wic in particular and testing is ongoing to try and identify and fix the remaining issues.
*We continue to struggle with a number of autobuilder intermittent bugs. 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
*Unfortunately, intermittent autobuilder issues are still occurring, whilst reducing in frequency and number, possibly due to less frequency full rebuilds. 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 with any of these would be much appreciated, unfortunately it is proving hard to find anyone interested in helping figure these out and they significantly hamper our testing.
