| | * YP 5.0.15 was released |
| https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team
| | * YP 5.3.1 is under review |
| | * YP 6.0 M1 is in QA |
| | * YP 4.0.33 is queued for QA after 6.0 M1 |
| | * YP 6.0 M2 is due next week! |
| | * Good progress has been made with the autobuilder issues and an M1 build is in QA but we still don’t have the stability in builds we need for reliable project operations. |
| | * There are currently 6 high open bugs, which will block M2: |
| | ** Issues reusing binaries from fedora 43 (and maybe ubuntu 25.10) on older systems (patchelf triggered?) (#16074, #16087) |
| | ** x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074) |
| | ** AB-INT: build-sysroots: useradd command did not succeed (#16135) |
| | ** Hangs of the autobuilder controller (database locking?) (#16129) |
| | ** Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138) |
| | * The number of intermittent failures affecting builds, both stable and development, continues to be problematic. Any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them and we often don’t have successful builds. Since we struggle to get help in addressing these, we need to change and start potentially blocking releases (including stable/LTS) until these get addressed in some way. We are holding some dedicated meetings to triage these and find ways of removing the failures from our builds which may include reducing testing. |
| | * Patches are merging again but there is a backlog and we’ve had to prioritize simpler changes. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS. |

|
| Key Status/Updates:
| |
| YP 2.5 M2 is 97% through QA. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.5_QA_Status
| |
| YP 2.2.3 is also mostly through QA. See https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.2_QA_Status
| |
| We build 2.4.2 rc1 however rapidly moving kernel updates combined with QA not having started on rc1 yet meant we decided to build rc2, pulling in further kernel security fixes (as well as others like openssl). rc2 is currently being built and should enter QA today assuming a successful build.
| |
| autobuilder.yoctoproject.org continues to be unavailable as we continue to develop the new autobuilder codebase to replace the current heavily customized buildbot one.
| |
| We managed to shrink the ltp package size which unblocked some patch merging. Bruce has been working on changes to kernel-devsrc to significantly reduce its size.
| |
| The glibc change continues to be blocked on locale issues which may prove tricky to resolve and will block M3 as we need the glibc upgrade for various reasons.
| |
| We have some key decisions to make about the conflicting native of pkg-conf and pkgconfig. Maxin has a patch series which exposes the issues.
| |
| There are problems with the changes to pseudo’s master branch verses the patches we have against the recipe.
| |
| Please note that we are very close to M3 which is feature freeze, technically, feature freeze was yesterday. We’re not in a position to build M3 yet but if there are features you expect to see in 2.5, please highlight those patches ASAP. We are drawing up a list of “must haves” for the release and if we don’t know about it, it likely won’t be on it.

| | '''Ways to contribute:'''<br/> |
| YP 2.4.2 (Rocko) is currently being built and should enter QA today.
| | *We have several open issues for pseudo and limited maintainer time to work on them. Help from someone familiar with systems programming in C would be greatly appreciated. https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=661406&priority=High&priority=Medium%2B&product=Pseudo&query_format=advanced&resolution=--- |
| YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built when we figure out gcc backports.
| | *There are a large number of intermittent failures on our autobuilder, any help with investigating, reproducing or solving these issues would be welcome! https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/ |
| YP 2.2.3 (Morty) rc2 is in QA.
| | *Many recipes in openembedded-core would benefit from a new recipe maintainer. Please look at https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and see if you can adopt any of the unassigned recipes. |
| YP 2.2.4 (Morty) will be built when we figure out gcc backports.

| Key Status/Updates:
| | *[[2018 Yocto Project Weekly Status Archive]] |
| YP 2.5 M2 is currently undergoing QA and nearly complete. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.5_QA_Status
| |
| YP 2.2.3 is also mostly through QA. See https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.2_QA_Status.
| |
| Holidays mean that QA is slowed, we will QA 2.4.2 as soon as they return.
| |
| autobuilder.yoctoproject.org continues to be unavailable as we continue to develop the new autobuilder codebase to replace the current heavily customized buildbot one.
| |
| Some positive performance news is that by removing the “fetchall” and “checkuriall” tasks, we were able to take “bitbake core-image-sato -g” from 20s to around 8s. The speedup comes from the runqueue calculation so most builds will benefit from this speedup. The tasks are replaced by a dedicated bitbake option, --runall=<taskname>.
| |
| Kernel updates have been blocked as some image sizes have overflowed the maximum allowed image sizes. We’re working on figuring out how to resolve that, likely by stripping ltp and/or optimising the kernel-devsrc recipe if possible.
| |
| The glibc change is blocked on various build failures the code seems to trigger as well as issues with gplv2 vs gplv3 patches for meta-gplv2.
| |
| | |
| Planned upcoming dot releases:
| |
| YP 2.4.2 (Rocko) will be built shortly, once there is QA bandwidth available.
| |
| YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built when we figure out gcc backports.
| |
| YP 2.2.3 (Morty) rc2 is in QA.
| |
| YP 2.2.4 (Morty) will be built when we figure out gcc backports.
| |

| |
| | |
| Key Status/Updates:
| |
| YP 2.5 M2 has been built and is pending QA. The M2 milestone contains the linux-yocto kernel backports and gcc upgrade for the spectre and meltdown security issues.
| |
| YP 2.2.3 is mostly through QA, some issues have been identified with newer host distro releases; however, these are likely something we’d address with 2.2.4.
| |
| autobuilder.yoctoproject.org continues to be unavailable as we continue to develop the new autobuilder codebase to replace the current heavily customized buildbot one.
| |
| There are some changes to runqueue in bitbake about to land (currently in -next) which bring some risk of dependency problems in recrdeptask and recideptask handling, it's worth keeping in mind if task dependencies issues appear shortly after those merge.
| |
| | |
| Planned upcoming dot releases:

| |
| | |
| Key Status/Updates:
| |
| YP 2.5 M1 rc3 was released.
| |
| Fixes for spectre and meltdown are in master and also in the rocko branches for both gcc (updated to 7.3) and linux-yocto.
| |
| We will likely consolidate a few further patches (such as genericx86 and other meta-yotcto-bsp updates) and then build and QA both 2.5 M2 and 2.4.2.
| |
| Work on the autobuilder changes continues but means autobuilder.yoctoproject.org is not being used in production (autobuilder.yocto.io aka ‘the new cluster’) is.
| |
| There were a number of lock related issues with the yocto.io builder over the weekend which are being investigated.
| |

| |
| | |
| Key Status/Updates:
| |
| YP 2.5 M1 rc3 is out of QA and should be released imminently. There were some minor issues but we’ll address these as part of M2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WW03_-_2018-1-18-_Full_Test_Cycle_-_2.5_M1_rc3 and see: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Project_v2.5_Status#Milestone_1_-_Target_Dec._15.2C_2017
| |
| With a round of security released fixes likely to land shortly, we’ll likely wait for these before we roll M2.
| |
| The Automatic Upgrade Helper (AUH) ran, now based on devtool functionality and testing against a wider set of architectures and build options. This looks likely to easy recipe maintenance and increase productivity for people and I’d like to thank Alex for his work on this. There is much it could do better but it is continuing to evolve and become easier to use which is great to see.
| |
| The AUH emails have triggered a good batch of recipe upgrades. QEMU was also upgraded (which can often cause problems).
| |
| I sent out a separate summary of changes which are happening to the Autobuilder, people on the SWAT team need to be especially aware of this http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-architecture/2018-January/000694.html
| |
| The long queued python recipe changes including its manifest have landed. We tested this as far as we could in core and I know there is some fall out in other layers, help and patience to work through the issues is appreciated. Patches pending against the python recipes will need to be rebased and resent.
| |
| There have been some significant changes to cmake, ninja and meson and meson is now the default for some recipes. There were some significant gettext cleanups.
| |

| Key Status/Updates:
| |
| • 2.3.3 and 2.4.1 were released. These releases do not contain spectre/meltdown patches/fixes as those are still being worked on and haven’t merged yet.
| |
| • We are mostly up to date with patch queues although there are some bigger series which are still being tested/reviewed and are still pending
| |
| • Due to testing problems with 2.5 M1 rc3, it is still undergoing QA testing and is 90% complete. We are continuing to have some QA transition/infrastructure issues. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.5_QA_Status.
| |
| • A separate update on the spectre/meltdown status and the project has been sent out to the oe-core mailing list.

| | |
| Key Status/Updates:
| |
| • 2.3.3 and 2.4.1 are likely due to imminently release, we tracked down the performance regressions to some kind of infrastructure issue which is still being investigated.
| |
| • The automated testing issues have mostly been resolved now and this has meant we’ve run a series of builds for master and the stable release branches. As such, the backlog of patches against morty, pyro, rocko and master are substantially reduced after this weekend.
| |
| • Armin’s help with the stable patch queues is much appreciated.
| |
| • Due to testing problems with 2.5 M1 rc1, particular from the qemu APIC hangs, we have put a new build, rc3 into QA. The QA of YP 2.5 M1 rc3 is about 2% complete. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.5_QA_Status
| |
| • We’re aware there are some serious security issues around at the moment. We’ve been stalled partly as maintainers are returning from vacation, partly as fixes are only now becoming available. As fixes are available we will waterfall these into the branches. One of the reasons we’ve focused on clearing the other patches queued is so we can quickly test and merge these and then proceed with another set of point releases.

| |
| | |
| Key Status/Updates:
| |
| • Things have been slow over the holiday season but things should be back to normal by the end of this week.
| |
| • The QA of YP 2.4.1 rc1 is complete. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WW51_-_2017-12-21-_Full_Test_Cycle_-_2.4.1_rc1.
| |
| • The QA of YP 2.3.3 rc1 is complete. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WW51_-_2017-12-20-_Full_Test_Cycle_-_2.3.3_rc1.
| |
| • For 2.3.3 and 2.4.1 we have some questions about performance issues which the QA process potentially identified and we need to investigate these before any release can be made.
| |
| • The QA of YP 2.5 M1 rc1 is about 68% complete. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.5_QA_Status
| |
| • The QA of YP 2.2.3 rc1 is about 24% complete. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.2_QA_Status.
| |
| • The kvm apic hang is resolved for qemux86-64 with a workaround. The workaround doesn’t work for qemux86 but there is another patch pending to address this.
| |
| • We keep seeing phantom “inode space” issues with the NFS setup on the autobuilder across all releases. I think we’re likely to give in and change the disk space monitoring on the infrastructure to ignore this as its breaking too many builds and likely not worth tracking down further.
| |
| • There are other suspected repository concurrency issues on the infrastructure causing failures and we’ve disabled buildhistory to allow builds to work until that is resolved.
| |
| • We’re hopeful with these changes in place we can get some kind of build stability back and have a better chance at merging patches again.
