'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.3.1 was released
*YP 6.0.2 has been released
*YP 6.0 M1 was released
*YP 5.0.19 is due to release
*YP 4.0.33 is in QA
*YP 6.1 M2 will build this week after pseudo, systemd and resulttool changes merge
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build next week.
*Some invasive LICENSE changes have merged into master:
*There are currently 5 high open bugs, which will block M2. Three have line of sight to being resolved:
**We now require the LICENSE field to match SPDX identifiers.
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 42/43 on older systems (#16087)
**The build will issue warnings when this isn’t the case.
**rust do_test_compile/do_install segfault (#16058)
**Non SPDX licenses will need to be of the form LicenseRef-XXX
**Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
**CLOSED is no longer a valid value.
*Two are currently needing further work:
**‘WITH’ license exceptions are now supported
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
Big thanks for Joshua for getting us to the point where we can finally clean this up!
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (#16078)
*We have identified a few linux-yocto CVEs which need triaging due to missing version information in the CVE databases (affecting master, wrynose and scarthgap), see the email sent to the list: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto/topic/120036383
*We are about to drop the 6.12 and 6.16 kernel recipes leaving just 6.18 for the next release
*Patches generated by the automatic upgrade helper (AUH) now include changelogs where these can be extracted from upstream.
*The number of intermittent failures affecting builds, both stable and development, continues to be problematic - we continue to prioritise addressing these since any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them.
*A couple of further pseudo related issues were identified, one with linkat flags and one with openat2 (tar related/triggered). We hope to have patches merged soon.
*Patch review is now using two branches:
*Systemd issues with older host kernels (e.g. RHEL 8) is still being worked on https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119870359
**“master-review”  - patches which pass on the autobuilder and will be discussed on the patch review call (https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/log/?h=master-review)
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge. The review calls are running out of time each meeting which limits progress.
**“master-backlog” - patches which have been discussed and need further investigation or more detailed feedback which we haven’t had time for yet (https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/log/?h=master-backlog)
**We’re making little progress on intermittent build failures despite the problems continuing to impact test builds:
*Patches are merging 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.
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues on ARM
 
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**groff build race issues
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
*For the qemuarmv5 amba crash (#16217), we did confirm it doesn’t seem to be load or memory usage related and does seem to happen on the autobuilder but not on other systems, for reasons still currently unknown.
