'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.19 is in QA
*YP 4.0.20 is due to be released
*YP 5.1 M1 rc1 is building
*YP 5.1 M2 is in QA
*We identified the performance problem in bitbake using hash equivalence servers and have made changes to batch queries and improve build times
*There is an issue open upstream with the openssl project related to making path relocation of openssl easier (as used in our buildtools tarball and SDK). We’d love assistance in moving this forward and getting some kind of upstream feature merged to make this easier: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/19260
*Extra logging for that performance problem is available by setting BB_LOGCONFIG=XXX/bitbake/contrib/autobuilderlog.json (the more verbose logging the autobuilder uses) which will then show if initial query or rehash looping takes longer than 30s for iterations or 60s overall.
*SPDX 3.0 has merged and is now the default.
*We changed locked-sigs to include the hash equivalence mapping data, removing the need to copy the cache file.
*We updated to glibc 2.40, thanks Khem. There is an issue with building pseudo under the new glibc version which is being worked on.
*Libtool was upgraded to the 2.5.0 alpha release, many patches were merged upstream.
*We identified an issue which meant warnings/errors in nativesdk recipes were not showing on our autobuilder. We have the fix for the CI issue ready as soon as we fix those warnings/errors, the gcc path problems are proving tricky.
*Qemu has been upgraded to 9.0.0, kernel headers to 6.9 and stable and dev kernel updates merged (to 6.6.32)
*We were able to optimize some space usage in builds, thanks Ross. The results are visible on our performance charts, e.g.: https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/20240723-5/testresults/buildperf-alma8/perf-alma8_master_20240723030045_28fd497a26.html https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/20240723-4/testresults/buildperf-debian11/perf-debian11_master_20240722200022_28fd497a26.html
*There is one remaining issue on fedora40, systemtap-native does not build. The other Fedora 40 are believed to be fixed.
*Further help on optimizing build disk usage would be most welcome.
*Some layers are setting fallbacks for UNPACKDIR which break OE-Core by trying to claim compatibility with everything. Errors have been added to make this problem clear.
*Some larger patches still need help with review these would be appreciated:
*sstate has had changes to fix a bug where build-history data was inconsistent. The siteconfig class was removed to make that change easier and improve the code, it was mostly unused anyway.
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
*The parallelism in the hash client was removed as batching queries is much more effective and easier on the server.
**kernel fitimage changes from Adrian
*There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
*We’ve been trying to resolve some of the longer standing patches in review and are getting more caught up.
*Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
*There is a further update from Marta/Syslinbit on the CVE tooling/patches
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc.
*Post release upgrading is resulting in an improvement in patch metrics which is great to see, more should appear next week in the statistics too.
