*We have a new dashboard index page linking to key tools/data pages within the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/ . Help on further improvements is welcome. We are aiming to drive the data from the autobuilder.
*An infrastructure issue where git mirroring was stalling has been fixed
*Welcome improvements on syncing an sstate cache with a hash equivalence server were merged allowing more efficient hash equivalence server database cleanup, thanks!
*There continue to be 502 gateway errors on some services due to overload from bot activity. This is impacting the autobuilder as well.
*Bitbake python function library files were not always being cached correctly in bitbake’s parse cache, this was fixed.
*The buildbot workers display has been fixed to allow more builds to be shown and an autobuilder build scheduling issue has been resolved allowing better resource utilization.
*We started to merge gcc 15 fixes, particularly in native recipes as this will likely cause problems during the next release cycle with newer distro versions if we do not act.
*We now have gitstats, SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS validation, toaster fixtures validation and wider use of central releases information within the autobuilder.
*There were a number of minor version upgrades for bugs and CVE related issues.
*There have been improvements to the SPDX generation but these appear to have caused a significant performance regression which is being investigated.
*The recent annoying qemumips64 intermittent bug on the autobuilder looks to be a mips specific kernel issue which has been fixed upstream. We continue to wonder whether we should test mips/powerpc given the lack of interest in helping resolve issues.
*A cause of intermittent failures from a python warning has been worked around and a small race fix for bitbake was also merged.
*There are several fetcher changes pending including the ability to specify both a tag and a source revision.
*Fitimage and u-boot tests were reworked and rationalized which was long overdue, thanks Adrian.
*Emails have been sent about the CVE/NVD situation proposing a path forward.
*The gomod mirror issue in meta-openembedded was continuing to give failed builds on the autobuilder.The patch has been reverted in meta-openembedded for now to regain stable builds. Warnings were creeping in whilst the error was masking them. We need to fix the root cause.
*Our own systemctl python script has been replaced with the correct tool for better compatibility
*We’ve identified a significant increase in build disk usage from the rust upgrade.
