'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We are now at feature freeze for YP 3.4
*YP 3.4 M3 is built and now in QA. This means we are now feature complete for 3.4 and will be working on stabilization.
*Rust was merged into core, it was touch and go whether we could/would or not. Unfortunately there was an error found after merging with cargo-native on centos7 hosts which we still need to resolve before building M3.
*YP 3.3.3 has been built and is waiting in the queue for QA after 3.4 M3. This includes the override syntax compatibility changes.
*Fixes for glibc 2.34 and pseudo were merged however this uses a binary shim and isn’t an ideal way to solve the issues. We need to find a way to have active development on pseudo with investigation into possible replacement approaches.
*SBOM generation work was merged in and will be in the release as preliminary work on this topic, there will likely be some further tweaks during M4.
*A kernel issue introduced in recent kernel module versioning changes needs to resolved before we can build M3.
*Further rust issues were resolved such as the centos7 build issues.
*The glibc 2.34 upgrade caused issues with docker and the clone3 syscall returning EPERM instead of ENOSYS. We will likely have to add a workaround to our glibc until released versions of docker have the upstream fix.
*A work around for the glibc 2.34 clone3 syscalls in uninative was added and a new uninative built/released.
*A fix for some of the multiconfig issues where deadlocked tasks and tasks were showing errors being on both the “covered and not covered lists” is available in master-next for review, hopefully addressing the issues that were being reported. This was possible from a better test case that was submitted enabling debugging.
*Intermittent issues are ongoing and help is very much welcome on these 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
