Twitch - See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0.5 is under review
YP 4.0.23 is in QA
Patch merging is continuing to flow but there are a lot of upgrades pending after the recent AUH run.
A patch is pending to remove support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY
Yocto Project Compatible (and hence yocto-check-layer) is potentially undergoing some small tweaks which includes checking for SECURITY files in repository top levels, checking for network access outside do_fetch as part of normal builds and checking for disabled QA checks.
A potential new “include_all” conf file directive (discussed on the openembedded-architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2055 ) has no strong objections and is proceeding to proof of concept
There are patches under review for the addition of configuration fragment management to bitbake. It does require the addition of support for ‘/’ characters in variable flag names (which has been requested in the past too).
The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!

Ways to contribute:

As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
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
There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.2_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0.5 is in QA.
Patch merging seems to be flowing reasonably well at present with a minimal review/testing backlog.
The IMAGE_FEATURE “debug-tweaks” has been removed since it hides some fairly serious potential security issues and we want to make these more explicit, clear and obvious.
Our documentation now includes pdf and epub format files which can be downloaded.

Key Status/Updates:

We have now fully transitioned to the new autobuilder infrastructure, thanks Michael!
Patch merging seems to be flowing reasonably well at present with a minimal review/testing backlog.
A fix for the performance of the dump signatures option to bitbake has merged which should further alleviate some autobuilder intermittent failures, in this case a bitbake server timeout.
Improvements on the documentation are being made including a move to a newer Sphinx version and the addition of pdf and epub output generation.
The 5.2 development plans are now being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
Please help us to add in the missing information. The TSC has filled out some information to give examples of what we need.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.0.22 was released
The new autobuilder cluster (valkyrie) is up and running and all work is being done there. The old cluster is being shut down.
The CDN and mirror tests are now working reliably and we are getting green builds again. Huge thanks to Michael Halstead for the work being done, mostly behind the scenes.
Progress has been made on many of the blocking intermittent issues on the new autobuilder but many rarer issues remain.
Rust tests on the MIPS architecture have been disabled as nobody is using/supporting it.
Toaster test suite improvements have merged but more work really needs to be done there to improve some of the test conditions.
We have a new command line tool to help with the SWAT, thanks to Mathieu for putting that together. https://git.yoctoproject.org/swat-tools/
The UKI (Unified Kernel Images) series finally merged with tests, which will help ensure the code keeps working in the future.
We’re seeing a pattern of people submitting patches to master when they’ve only tested them against older releases. In several cases the issue wasn’t even present there. Please don’t do this, it wastes a lot of time. If you see the issue against an older release, please make that clear.
For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:
- Autobuilder
- Binary Distro
- Bitbake config fragments
- Bitbake setup process/tooling
- GUI screen shot QA test
- IDE Plugin development
- Layer Index
- Patchtest
- Security Tooling
- Swatbot
- Toaster
If there are other areas we should have plans for, please let us know.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.1 was released - Thanks to everyone who helped contribute to 5.1!
YP 4.0.22 is due to release
We are continuing with the autobuilder migration and the typhoon cluster is being decommissioned. All builds are now happening on valkyrie (the new cluster).
There are still a lot of failures occurring on the autobuilder. Of the remaining issues, we are making progress on many but work is still ongoing.
In particular it was found the debian 11 5.10 kernel was problematic with qemu and the 6.1 kernel appears more stable for our workloads. We will switch the debian 11 workers to the 6.1 backport kernel.
We plan to disable the rust tests for mips and ppc, we cannot find any users of rust on these architectures.
For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:
- Autobuilder
- Binary Distro
- Bitbake config fragments

We are continuing with the autobuilder migration and the typhoon cluster is being decommissioned.
Unfortunately there are a large number of failures occurring on the autobuilder. These can be seen in this thread where there are 11 issues detailed, only two of which are currently resolved: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/topic/108984574#msg205803
A brief one line summary of the remaining 9 issues:
- A problem scaling writes to hashequiv which causes timeouts
- A mips issue where rust selftests fail (who can help maintain mips and ppc?)
- zlib reproducibility problem
- Debian11 tap device problems
- Fedora41 selftest bitbake timeout issues
- CDN mirroring issues due to migration (Michael working on it)
- Sources mirroring issues due to migration (Michael working on it)
- CVE database corruption issue
- Toaster testsuite problems
For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0.4 is due to be released
YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) is out of QA, the final work item is updating the documentation. Help to write and review release notes and migration guides is greatly appreciated.
The situation with Fedora 41 and python 3.13 has improved. There are several bitbake fixes needed and one one for pseudo the posix_spawn function.
The bb.exceptions module could use some attention from someone with appropriate python knowledge (it makes tracebacks pickleable).
CVE emails are now reporting correctly again, thanks Steve.
We can now compare the performance of the new autobuilder perf builds:
- https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/20241007-108/testresults/buildperf-alma8/perf-alma8_master_20241007210052_312488228a.html

The performance workers are about twice the speed (but the performance workers were not normal worker nodes on the old system). rm_work adds about a minute to build times on a modern SSD system.
Migration to the new autobuilder is proceeding with regular users now encouraged to trigger builds on the new cluster to stress test and identify any issues.
We are having problems with the toaster tests failing after layer index updates for styhead. If anyone has knowledge of selenium CSS selectors we’d appreciate assistance!
For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:
- Autobuilder
- Binary Distro
- Bitbake config fragments

YP 5.0.4 is out of QA and under review for release.
master and styhead have now diverged, so be aware of this if you’re tracking git branches.
The new release series name is available in OE-Core master, ‘walnascar’ aka ‘walna’ verbally. Users are encouraged to update their master/devel branches to this.
Early testing shows problems in Fedora 41 related to pseudo. Help in debugging and root causing appreciated.
The Ubuntu 24.04 with NFS issue has been resolved, but unless we respin the release build will not be fixed in 5.1.0. A fix is already integrated into bitbake and will be in the first point release.
Migration to the new autobuilder is proceeding with regular users now encouraged to trigger builds on the new cluster to stress test and identify any issues.
There are YP 5.2 proposed milestone dates https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TDrD9nFjosvLHa7EfL_Y1-1slK7u5Am6NZV6QRF2P6s/edit - please review and let us know if there are any concerns.
There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.
For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:

Richard Purdie is on holiday this week. For any urgent questions please contact Ross Burton who is covering.
Last week was the Open Source Summit and Yocto Project Developer Day. Many thanks to Josef, Megan, and Philip for arranging this event which was well attended and was great to attend (RB)
YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) has passed QA, the final work item is updating the documentation. Help to write and review release notes and migration guides is greatly appreciated.
master and styhead have now diverged, so be aware of this if you’re tracking git branches.
Migration to the new autobuilder has been postponed by a month to October, due to scaling issues and problems related to NFS and Ubuntu 24.04. https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15596 has further details if anyone has insight into new coreutils plus NFS access control lists. Everyone who has the authority to trigger builds is encouraged to use the new cluster to stress test it.
There are YP 5.2 proposed milestone dates https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TDrD9nFjosvLHa7EfL_Y1-1slK7u5Am6NZV6QRF2P6s/edit - please review and let us know if there are any concerns.
There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.

Ways to contribute:

As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
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
There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

There are YP 5.2 proposed milestone dates https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TDrD9nFjosvLHa7EfL_Y1-1slK7u5Am6NZV6QRF2P6s/edit - please review and let us know if there are any concerns.
The final pieces of the release were merged:
- sanity test for Ubuntu 24.04 userns/apparmor issue added
- TCLIBCAPPEND properly deprecated
- toaster fixtures tweaked
- buildtools updated
- non-deterministic libsdl2 configure issue fixed
- gitsm configparser change reverted
- many other varied and useful fixes
Since there is now an rc build heading to QA, master and styhead will diverge. There are some patches in master-next which were deemed too late/risky for the release (including the gomod class changes)
The new autobuilder has had NAS problems when scaled to final size, those are being worked on but it will delay switching to the new system a little.
There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.1 M3 is due to be released
YP 4.0.21 is in QA
We are now at feature freeze and working on bug fixing for the final 5.1 release builds
Due to timing of autobuilder infrastructure changes, vacations, no release blocking bugs and also seemingly limited availability of people to help with general bug fixing, we are considering an early M4 build, maybe even this week. If that would cause problems for anyone, please let Richard/the TSC know ASAP.
Support for TCLIBCAPPEND was dropped.
We updated to only support the “styhead” layer series namespace.
The new autobuilder infrastructure is showing a number of challenges including some new bugs, new intermittent issues, challenges with new distros and a new reproducibility issue but we’re working through them
There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.

We hope that we can start to merge pieces of meta-clang into OE-Core but this will need people to help do the work and will have to happen in 5.2 as there is insufficient time left for 5.1.
Rust was upgraded to 1.78, thanks Yash.
The cve-check/vex series has merged, thanks Marta.
quires meta-clang for the intel drivers. We need to make a decision on how to handle this, clang is likely to make its way to core at some point but work is needed to make the overrides suitable for core before that can happen.

Key Status/Updates:

Feature freeze for YP 5.1 is now 3 weeks away!
YP 5.1 M2 was released (unfortunately with autobuilder failures)
A document giving a brief overview of the Yocto Project Autobuilder/Infrastructure has been shared: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/images/0/04/Yocto_Project_Autobuilder.pdf
Autobuilder intermittent issues continue to cause concern but we have few people able to work on them.
The new mesa version requires meta-clang for the intel drivers. We need to make a decision on how to handle this, clang is likely to make its way to core at some point but work is needed to make the overrides suitable for core before that can happen.
The patch review backlog continues to reduce with only a small number of patches still pending feedback.
A new round of upgrades has been merged and the AUH successfully handled recipes with multiple variants like qemu this time, thanks AlexK! Upgrades included binutils, qemu, libtool, linux-libc-headers and many more.
A new kernel 6.10 recipe is nearly ready, thanks Bruce!
do_package_qa is now enabled for nativesdk recipes in our automated testing
The autobuilder has had improvements on space detection to try and resolve build failures. A further plan is detailed in a new enhancement bug but needs resourcing: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15569
An interesting fix for performance with large numbers of layers and multiconfigs merged in bitbake, thanks Robert!

A bug in pseudo around the resolution of symlinks was identified and a fix merged, thanks to the reporter for sending a good test case!
We cleaned up a lot of python dependencies and added some extra tests, thanks Ross.
The rustdoc reproducibility issue was found and fixed, thanks Sundeep! We will now be able to upgrade rust to newer versions although further issues remain in some newer versions.
The new mesa version requires meta-clang for the intel drivers. We need to make a decision on how to handle this, clang is likely to make its way to core at some point but work is needed to make the overrides suitable for core before that can happen.

SPDX 3.0 has merged and is now the default.
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.
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.
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
Further help on optimizing build disk usage would be most welcome.
Some larger patches still need help with review these would be appreciated:
- Improved CVE tooling from Marta
- kernel fitimage changes from Adrian
- bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.0.20 is in QA
YP 5.1 M2 is due to be built now SPDX 3.0 has merged
SPDX 3.0 has merged, thanks Joshua, Marta and everyone else who has worked on this.
We’ve chosen to make SPDX 3.0 the default since it is much more suited to what we do.
A number of QA checks were moved from WARN_QA to ERROR_QA. The intention is to allow recipes to be marked up with known issues rather than have builds with warnings people tend to ignore, or ideally have the issues fixed.
If layers choose to change ERROR_QA, please do it on a per layer basis with an override, not globally,
An upcoming version of Yocto Project Compatible will require some subset of the ERROR_QA checks to be tested and passed for the layer to be compatible.
Debug optimization handling was changed, the DEBUG_FLAGS variable was dropped in favor of a new DEBUG_LEVELFLAG which allows distros to more easily change recipe debug levels, in particular to control size.
The autobuilder has been running into space issues and we analyzed space usage in a build. Patches are proposed to drop the debug symbols for on target llvm to reduce space usage (along with teaks to qemu and openssl) as the output size is effectively unusable currently. Further work on minimizing disk usage would be very welcome and there is a direct relationship with build speed too.
Autobuilder test result/output indexing has been moved to a specific autobuilder job so the work is more visible to all users (the ‘indexing’ builder). The script has been optimized and the output html cleaned up by Sovereign Tech *Fund sponsorship through their contractors: https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/
Some larger patches still need help with review these would be appreciated:
- Improved CVE tooling from Marta
- kernel fitimage changes from Adrian
- bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
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
We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc. We tested rust 1.78 with master and there is a long list of reported issues on the mailing list unfortunately. Rust 1.77 has a much smaller list of problems at least in initial testing.

Yocto Project Weekly Status July 2nd, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.1 M2
Next Deadline: YP 5.1 M2 Build 8 July 2024

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0.2 is in QA.
YP 5.1 M2 is due to build next week.
An issue with code content in python library functions and their effect on task hashes was identified and improvements have merged to bitbake for this.
A patch changing the way the *FLAGS variables operate merged.
An autobuilder migration blocking issue with cpu emulation under qemu+KVM was identified and worked around by kernel tweaks, thanks Bruce.
Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
- Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
- Improved CVE tooling from Marta
- bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
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
- The letter has proved helpful in discussions and helping influence changes at CISA and the CVE Project so has already been useful.
We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc. We tested rust 1.78 with master and there is a long list of reported issues on the mailing list unfortunately.

Ways to contribute:

As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.0.19 and YP 5.1 M1 were released
YP 5.0.2 was built and is entering QA.
There were some great patch status cleanups, thanks Alexander (will show in next week’s metrics)
There is a patch to improve the way the *FLAGS variables operate. It is possible this may change behavior in some corner cases but the usability improvements mean we’re likely to merge the patch and address any issues that arise.
Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
- Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
- Improved CVE tooling from Marta
- bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first contribution if anyone is interested.
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
- Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
- 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.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.0.19 is ready for release.
YP 5.1 M1 is ready for release.
Patch status tags are now checked for by default. Layers which don't wish this can disable the error by removing patch-status from ERROR_QA.
Fedora 40 support should be almost complete. GCC 14 is the gift that keeps on giving, the last issue I'm aware of is in 'expect' and there are now two competing patches for that.
Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
- Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
- Improved CVE tooling from Marta
- bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first contribution if anyone is interested.

We have a fix for the final Fedora 40 issue, thanks Victor.
We appreciate everyone fixing layers to work with master after recent changes, the autobuilder health is looking greener, thanks!
The copy_unihashes function was dropped from bitbake after the locked signature file improvements which simplifies further tooling work

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.0.19 is in QA
YP 5.1 M1 rc1 is building
We identified the performance problem in bitbake using hash equivalence servers and have made changes to batch queries and improve build times
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.
We changed locked-sigs to include the hash equivalence mapping data, removing the need to copy the cache file.
Libtool was upgraded to the 2.5.0 alpha release, many patches were merged upstream.
Qemu has been upgraded to 9.0.0, kernel headers to 6.9 and stable and dev kernel updates merged (to 6.6.32)
There is one remaining issue on fedora40, systemtap-native does not build. The other Fedora 40 are believed to be fixed.
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.
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.
The parallelism in the hash client was removed as batching queries is much more effective and easier on the server.
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
Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
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.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0.1 has been released.
We have suspected a performance problem for a while, this has now been identified/confirmed as an issue with hash equivalence. The public server using websockets/SSL has significantly slowed down things, to the point a 2 hour world build is taking 18+ hours. In trying to improve this, we ended up destablising the autobuilders entirely, breaking many builds and halting the patch merging.

The problem is visible both at build initialization time and also at any point it rehashes due to new hash information from the server. We are still trying to work out ways to improve things but there appears to be multiple levels of different problems, including the hashserve client parallelism seeming to have bugs. The issue affects scarthgap as well as master.

A new gcc 14 compatible version of uninative was released allowing fedora 40 testing. Unfortunately there are issues with build failures on that host that are as yet uninvestigated.
The WORKDIR to UNPACKDIR transition has merged and other layers are now working on the updates needed. There appear to be some challenges around go modules in particular which are needing more investigation and development time.
We aim to build YP 5.1 M1 after the performance issue is addressed and we have stable builds.
We were able to merge a chunk of pending patches but things are still processing slowly unfortunately.
There are some CVE related announcements which are helpful to us:
- There was a CVE 5.1 Record format announcement with changes that encourage more useful data from our perspective
- CISA announced on linkedin the creation of https://github.com/cisagov/vulnrichment
- Unfortunately there are reports that the backlog of CVEs without version constraints is growing rapidly
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
- Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
- 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.
The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.
The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal, also not helped with the performance issue identfiied above.
Further performance graph improvements have merged and the graphs now have links to specific revisions allowing regressions to be much more easily tracked down.

Ways to contribute:

As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date. Marta sent out an update last week on this (thanks!)
gcc 14 has merged to master. There are errors in meta-arm, meta-virtualization and meta-mingw. Now that has merged, we will build and release a new uninative version.
More of the WORKDIR to UNPACKDIR transition has merged and devtool oe-local-files support has been dropped.
The next stage of the WORKDIR changes is pending testing in master-next.
The aim is to build YP 5.1 M1 as soon as the various queued patches stabilize.
The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal.
Automated testing continues to show large numbers of problems (e.g. a reproducibility issue in spirv-tools) but we continue to work through and fix issues as quickly as we can.
Two issues causing failures on the new test infrastructure were tracked down to problems in bitbake. Both were effectively timing related issues.

PR server pass through support merged.

A rust build issue of x86 hosted builds vs arm hosted builds has been identified as the cause of intermittent failures. Whilst this can be fixed, the fix breaks tests and/or reproducibility which gives challenges given the need to fix scarthgap. There are also challenges upgrading to newer rust versions.
The performance graph improvements have merged.
Improvements to the patch and CVE metrics page have also merged.

The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.
The WORKDIR to UNPACKDIR transition and redefinition of UNPACKDIR now has patches under testing in master-next, including updates to recipetool and devtool which pass our automated tests.
gcc 14 has patches pending thanks for Khem and Martin in particular. Merging the new gcc version is needed to generate new uninative tarballs to support Fedora 40 builds or any other distro using the new gcc version.
The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal.
Mailing list changes now mean any google hosted email accounts have the mailing list From: address rewritten. This had impacted our ability to handle patches but key maintainers now have workarounds for this.
Our automated tests have been seeing a number of intermittent issues. An email was sent detailing a few of these and the response with several patches or patches in progress has been extremely helpful and they’re very gratefully received.

There are proposals on the openembedded-architecture list to rework how do_unpack works, switching it from WORKDIR to a new variable and changing some directory layout.
The introduction of UNPACKDIR has happened, maintainers should be able to improve their S=WORKDIR recipes (which should use S, not WORKDIR/UNPACKDIR) and fix the common use of WORKDIR in do_compile/do_install to access files from SRC_URI which should now be UNPACKDIR.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0 has been released!
Huge thanks to everyone who contributed to 5.0
YP 3.1.33 has passed QA and is due to release
YP 4.0.18 is in QA.
Updates to graphing on the patch/CVE metrics page merged
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 Please consider signing this to show support for those changes, which would improve our ability to analyze CVEs, and that of many other projects (including other distros) to do so too.
We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) situation, the lack of CPE information is problematic for us and we are considering what alternatives we have. The CVE Project announced support for more information fields on CVEs which is a good start.
Some CVE information is being provided for issues in meta-openembedded, this has been provided with help from the Sovereign Tech Fund.
The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.
There are proposals on the openembedded-architecture list to rework how do_unpack works, switching it from WORKDIR to a new variable and changing some directory layout.

Ways to contribute:

As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0 rc1 is building but has many (6+) failures in the build so will have to be abandoned.
The final dunfell build will follow 5.0 into QA.
The master branch has diverged from scarthgap.
For 5.0, we were able to switch to the new hash equivalence server however the need for websockets complicated the worker configuration and needed new buildtools tarball versions which are causing various problems.
During the rc1 build as well as pip and setuptools issues within buildtools, we also saw a qemuppc boot issue, an instance of the spdx dependency problem, an sstate mirror issue and a github network error. This highlights how important fixing these is over the release cycle. The volume of these may impact our ability to maintain the LTS.
Thanks to everyone who sent documentation patches, we’re in much better shape with the migration guide and release notes now. Further improvements are still very welcome.
The “Binary Distro” work is now well underway and there are PR Server passthrough and image testing patches under review. The wiki page has had a number of policy/process proposals documented, help is welcome to help improve these, or highlight where further documentation is needed.
There are patches for improving the build performance graphs in review. Sample output from the changes is here and here.
There are also patches under review for the patch/cve metrics page to improve the usability.
We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) situation, the recent update didn’t clarify much. Unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a clear path forward as yet but using data directly from MITRE may help give partial information. These issues are making it hard to know what to include in the 5.0 release as it isn’t clear which changes are security related.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.3.4 is due to be released.
YP 5.0 rc1 is now due to build when ready.
All dunfell patches should have been sent now in preparation for an April 15 build. This will be the last release of dunfell.
For 5.0, we are still hoping to switch the hash equivalence server before running the release build but that is the only remaining pending change. We do also still need documentation work for the release
A new yocto-status mailing list has been created where we plan to send just the project weekly status reports and any other suitable updates on the project. This should help those who found the traffic of the other mailing lists too much.
A yocto-patches mailing list has been setup and patches that used to go to the yocto@ list will be migrating over to this new list, making yocto@ a bit more friendly for questions and discussions. Information in layers is being updated to reflect this.
We received some disappointing feedback from a key organization in the RISC-V ecosystem that the Yocto Project was not important and not worth funding. We will take this feedback into account.
The “Binary Distro” work is now well underway and there are PR Server passthrough patches under review. The wiki page has had a number of policy/process proposals documented, at least as a first pass. Help is welcome to help improve these, or highlight where further documentation is needed.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.0.17 has been released.
YP 4.3.4 is in QA and is the final planned nanbield release.
YP 5.0 rc1 is now due to build when ready.
Steve is taking patches for Dunfell until around April 8 in preparation for an April 15 build. This will be the last release of dunfell.
5.0 build status:
- The opkg lock issue has been worked around for now in the run-postinsts script
- An intermittent oe-selftest failure (sstatetests hang) was tracked down to a race in tinfoil event handling.
- The public hash equivalence server changes aren’t ready yet unfortunately
- There are issues with the size of the buildhistory repository which is being split up, this needs to happen before we can build the release.
- A key worry now is the documentation for the release, especially given it is an LTS. There are emails on the docs list about this, help is much appreciated. This will now be the main delay on the release timeframe.
A new yocto-status https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-status/topics mailing list has been created where we plan to send just the project weekly status reports and any other suitable updates on the project. This should help those who found the traffic of the other mailing lists too much.
A yocto-patches https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-patches/topics mailing list has been setup and patches that used to go to the yocto@ list will be migrating over to this new list, making yocto@ a bit more friendly for questions and discussions.
Some other obsolete mailing lists were removed or made read-only to try and make it easier for people to find the right place to see/send things.
Debian 12 and Fedora 40 containers have been added to crops (Thanks Rob Wolley)
All the crops yocto-base containers now include python3-virtualenv
The “Binary Distro” work is now well underway and there are PR Server passthrough patches ready for review. The wiki page https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Binary_Distro_Prototype#Policies_and_Processes has had a number of policy/process proposals documented, at least as a first pass. Help is welcome to help improve these, or highlight where further documentation is needed.
One year after the original linux.com article, an update was published: https://www.yoctoproject.org/blog/2024/03/28/maintainer-confidential-challenges-and-opportunities-one-year-on/
There was a significant security issue with xz release tarballs. We never merged the affected version and it was never in any of our main branches but we did test it on the autobuilder and saw build failures. We continue to watch for information on any potential implications of that. We have removed the compromised tarballs from our mirrors.
We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) situation, the recent update didn’t clarify much. Unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a clear path forward as yet.

Ways to contribute:

As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.0. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.0_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0 M3 has been released.
YP 4.0.17 is under review and due for release.
Steve is taking patches for Dunfell until around April 8 in preparation for an April 15 build. This will be the last release of dunfell.
There was a regression on beaglebone in 5.0 M3 where X11 wasn’t working but this has been fixed in master ready for the release.
A key worry now is the documentation for the release, especially given it is an LTS. There are emails on the docs list about this, help is much appreciated.
For M4, we are still hoping to transition to a different public hash equivalence server before release. We have stopped taking general point release upgrades to recipes unless there is a security or other key reason to take them. *The key remaining fix needed before building is for the opkg lock issue.
The opkg lock issue is now understood but the best fix is still under discussion/ development.
One set of the problematic autobuilder failures was tracked down to a queued but unmerged bitbake patch. There are other intermittent issues which still need to be root caused, at least one failure was also due to system load issues.
We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) issue and await further information about what the future holds there (https://nvd.nist.gov/ - “You will temporarily see delays in analysis efforts during this transition”)

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0 M3 has been through QA. There is one major issue, we will likely release M3 and fix that in M4.
YP 4.0.17 is in QA.
There is a regression on beaglebone testing where X is no longer starting which was found during M3 QA. Fixes are under discussion for this and will be in M4.
A key worry now is the documentation for the release, especially given it is an LTS. There are emails on the docs list about this, help is much appreciated.
The opkg lock issue with systemd images continues to be a significant concern for the release. We do now have a way to reproduce the bug and it is due to “opkg configure” being executed in a postinstall script whilst opkg install has the lock.
There is a uninative issue showing up with newer distros due to the glibc changes where the pthread library is no longer separate. There are patches in testing to try and mitigate against this.
There are multiple other failures occurring on the autobuilder but no specific pattern has been identified as yet. One test build had 4 different failures, and 2 of them were new never seen before issues. There is also some kind of issue with devtool/recipe tool test isolation in selftest which needs to be tracked down.
The previously reported CVE database update issue has been mitigated for now but further improvements to the autobuilder process for generating the metrics may still be needed.

We are seeing issues with devtool tests changing metadata and causing race issues. It is unclear why we’re seeing these now.
The opkg lock issue with systemd images continues to be a significant concern for the release.
The previously reported CVE database update issue on the autobuilder has not been addressed yet. This is causing higher numbers of CVEs to be reported on the autobuilder generated charts.
There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. We will trial qemuriscv64 support in M3 but remove it before the final LTS release as there is no sponsor for that support.

Key Status/Updates:

We are now at feature freeze for 5.0, preparing to build M3
YP 4.3.3 was released
YP 3.1.32 is in QA
Several changes have merged for M3:
- genericarm64 machine (also added to autobuilder)
- go upgrade to 1.21.7
- rust upgrade to 1.75
- change to bmaptool hosting
- using ipk to generate poky-altcfg images with extra space added
- 6.6.20 stable kernel update
- ability to use “extratools” on autobuilder for tests (e.g. imagemagick components)
Changes still needed or under consideration
- genericarm64 helper artefacts publishing changes
- QA screenshot comparison
- sstate permissions issue testcase
- go upgrade to 1.22 (tests cleanly on oe-core now, concerns for other layers)
We are seeing some odd failures, there was a devtool selftest failure (bug 15418 filed) and also an opkg lock issue as we enabled ipk images but that hasn’t recurred (yet). The opkg lock issue has been seen in builds by Khem previously.
There is a concerning problem when trying to update the CVE database since CPE restrictions don’t always update when changed upstream. This is causing higher numbers of CVEs to be reported on the autobuilder generated charts.
There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. We will trial qemuriscv64 support in M3 but remove it before the final LTS release as there is no sponsor for that support.

- Improvements to devtool to use git notes
- devtool IDE support
- Hashserve improvements (cleanup API, parallel queries, existence API)
- oe-setup-build script merged
- python_mesonpy support
- various git fetcher fixes/tweaks
- vscode integration improvements
- CVE fixes or exclusion list tweaks
There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. There is the potential to do this since the configurations have been written and are close to working. We’re wondering about trial testing this for M3 as a proof of concept. Without higher tier project membership support, this will not make it into the LTS final release though.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.0.16 was released.
YP 4.3.3 is in QA.
We are now a week from feature freeze for 5.0, our next LTS release
The BBFILE_PRIORITY change is being deferred as unfortunately it causes problems with bbappend ordering.
There have been fixes for python 3.12, recipe upgrades, kernel stable version bump and many other fixes and improvements this week.
The ‘scarthgap’ layer series name has merged to core. Compatibility with nanbield will be removed soon so maintainers will need to update their layers ASAP for the new release series.
Patch testing, review and merging is still a little behind due to the volume of failures combined with builds needing long buildtimes to do rebuilding core components like the compiler or libc.
Several performance regressions were identified in bitbake for world builds and patches have merged to try and improve those.
LLVMVERSION has been dropped from OE-Core since it doesn’t need it. This resolves a long standing issue/conflict with meta-clang but may need fixes for other layers that rely upon the variable.
There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. There is the potential to do this since the configurations have been written and are close to working. We’re wondering about trial testing this for M3 as a proof of concept. Without higher tier project membership support, this will not make it into the LTS final release though.

Key Status/Updates:

YP 5.0 M2 and YP 3.1.31 were released.
YP 4.0.16 is due to be released.
We are now two weeks to feature freeze for 5.0, our next release
There is a proposal on the openembedded-architecture list for a “setup tool” for layers and configuration: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1913
There is a new proposal to drop support for BBFILE_PRIORITY: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1918
Whilst late in the cycle for this, the benefits appear compelling.
Patch testing, review and merging is proving tricky at the moment as many patches are having poor interactions with other recipes, or corner case bugs (e.g. glibc mips issues).
There were many recipe upgrades merged including glibc and binutils, key fixes to pseudo, rpm issues root caused, ltp tests upgraded and expanded and arm tune file additions.
There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. There is the potential to do this since the configurations have been written and are close to working. We’re wondering about trial testing this for M3 as a proof of concept.

The upgrades and other changes meant we were able to lower our patch count by 25 this week.

Key Status/Updates:

The shadow sstate library dependency issues were reworked to avoid static libs after various problems were reported, thanks Alexander Kanavin for resolving this.
We have dropped the 6.1 kernel leaving just 6.6 in master for our 5.0 release
We were able to get a number of libtool patches merged upstream and the libunwind recipe was cleaned up a lot too.
Patches to fix rust tests are queued, thanks Yash for getting these working again.
The inherit_defer changes have merged. There are some reported issues of poor interaction with class-native overrides. There isn’t a regression but unfortunately inherit_defer has an unforeseen issue with the override handling. See bug 15361
We’ve opted to keep rng-tools in OE-Core for now since it appears a small subset of hardware does require it.
It is great to see patches adding test cases for the issues they’re fixing or functionality they’re adding. We cannot stress how useful this is over the medium/long term to keep things maintained, thanks!

Key Status/Updates:

YP 4.3.2 passed QA and is in review.
YP 5.0 M2 is due to build this week
The inherit_defer work highlighted a bug in EXPORT_FUNCTIONS handling. This was fixed but does change behavior in some real world usages of the function where the incorrect behavior was being relied upon.
EXPORT_FUNCTIONS is defined as mapping to those ‘namespaced’ functions only if there isn’t a real definition of that function.
The inherit_defer changes will likely merge into M2.
There has been at least one serial issue that reappeared with the 6.6 kernel on the autobuilder unfortunately.
A bug was fixed in the bitbake –runall option where it wasn’t building as much as it should have.
The recipe reporting system on the layer index is now functional again, thanks Tim!

Key Status/Updates:

YP 3.1.30, 4.0.15 and 5.0 M1 were released
YP 4.3.2 is in QA
Rust was upgraded from 1.71.1 to 1.74.1 in master. 1.75 has reproducibility issues.
We were able to remove all exclusions on reproducibility in OE-Core and it is once again 100% reproducible.
The sstate-cache-management script was rewritten in python. It is possible there are regressions compared to the previous version, we’ll have to fix them as they’re identified.
A workaround for the long standing autobuilder failures on debian11 and ubuntu 18.04 was identified by preloading libgcc. This is now applied for python 3.8 and 3.9 versions within bitbake.
We have switched to the 6.6 linux kernel
There are patches proposing new “inherit_defer” syntax for bitbake to handle conditional inherits in a way more in keeping with user expectations. Please see the discussion on the openembedded-architecture list.
Functions related to signature/hash debugging had an API change resulting in a need to update bitbake and OE-Core together to allow the functionality to be improved.
Improvements to the CDN tests and signature debugging were merged which improve usability and also address intermittent autobuilder failures
Regarding bugs, even if you can’t fix a bug, submitting a failing test case that can reproduce the issue significantly improves the chances it might get fixed.

Ways to contribute:

As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: patchtest, layerindex, devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.0. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.0_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

+*A patch is pending to remove support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY
+*Yocto Project Compatible (and hence yocto-check-layer) is potentially undergoing some small tweaks which includes checking for SECURITY files in repository top levels, checking for network access outside do_fetch as part of normal builds and checking for disabled QA checks.
+*A potential new “include_all” conf file directive (discussed on the openembedded-architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2055 ) has no strong objections and is proceeding to proof of concept
+*There are patches under review for the addition of configuration fragment management to bitbake. It does require the addition of support for ‘/’ characters in variable flag names (which has been requested in the past too).
+*The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing

+'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
+*YP 4.0.22 was released
+*The new autobuilder cluster (valkyrie) is up and running and all work is being done there. The old cluster is being shut down.
+*The CDN and mirror tests are now working reliably and we are getting green builds again. Huge thanks to Michael Halstead for the work being done, mostly behind the scenes.
+*Progress has been made on many of the blocking intermittent issues on the new autobuilder but many rarer issues remain.
+*Rust tests on the MIPS architecture have been disabled as nobody is using/supporting it.
+*Toaster test suite improvements have merged but more work really needs to be done there to improve some of the test conditions.
+*We have a new command line tool to help with the SWAT, thanks to Mathieu for putting that together. https://git.yoctoproject.org/swat-tools/
+*The UKI (Unified Kernel Images) series finally merged with tests, which will help ensure the code keeps working in the future.
+*We’re seeing a pattern of people submitting patches to master when they’ve only tested them against older releases. In several cases the issue wasn’t even present there. Please don’t do this, it wastes a lot of time. If you see the issue against an older release, please make that clear.
+*For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:
+**Autobuilder
+**Binary Distro
+**Bitbake config fragments
+**Bitbake setup process/tooling
+**GUI screen shot QA test
+**IDE Plugin development
+**Layer Index
+**Patchtest
+**Security Tooling
+**Swatbot
+**Toaster
+*If there are other areas we should have plans for, please let us know.
+'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
+*As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
+*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
+*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
+*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.2_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
+*We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
+*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

+'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
+*YP 5.1 was released - Thanks to everyone who helped contribute to 5.1!
+*YP 4.0.22 is due to release
+*We are continuing with the autobuilder migration and the typhoon cluster is being decommissioned. All builds are now happening on valkyrie (the new cluster).
+*There are still a lot of failures occurring on the autobuilder. Of the remaining issues, we are making progress on many but work is still ongoing.
+*In particular it was found the debian 11 5.10 kernel was problematic with qemu and the 6.1 kernel appears more stable for our workloads. We will switch the debian 11 workers to the 6.1 backport kernel.
+*We plan to disable the rust tests for mips and ppc, we cannot find any users of rust on these architectures.
+*For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:
+**Autobuilder

+'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
+*YP 5.0.4 is due to be released
+*YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) is out of QA, the final work item is updating the documentation. Help to write and review release notes and migration guides is greatly appreciated.
+*The situation with Fedora 41 and python 3.13 has improved. There are several bitbake fixes needed and one one for pseudo the posix_spawn function.
+*The bb.exceptions module could use some attention from someone with appropriate python knowledge (it makes tracebacks pickleable).
+*CVE emails are now reporting correctly again, thanks Steve.
+*We can now compare the performance of the new autobuilder perf builds:
+**https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/20241007-108/testresults/buildperf-alma8/perf-alma8_master_20241007210052_312488228a.html

+*The performance workers are about twice the speed (but the performance workers were not normal worker nodes on the old system). rm_work adds about a minute to build times on a modern SSD system.
+*Migration to the new autobuilder is proceeding with regular users now encouraged to trigger builds on the new cluster to stress test and identify any issues.
+*We are having problems with the toaster tests failing after layer index updates for styhead. If anyone has knowledge of selenium CSS selectors we’d appreciate assistance!
+*For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:
+**Autobuilder
+**Binary Distro
+**Bitbake config fragments

+**IDE Plugin development
+**Layer Index
+**Patchtest

+'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
+*YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) is in QA, the final work item is updating the documentation. Help to write and review release notes and migration guides is greatly appreciated.
+*YP 5.0.4 is out of QA and under review for release.
+*master and styhead have now diverged, so be aware of this if you’re tracking git branches.
+*The new release series name is available in OE-Core master, ‘walnascar’ aka ‘walna’ verbally. Users are encouraged to update their master/devel branches to this.
+*Early testing shows problems in Fedora 41 related to pseudo. Help in debugging and root causing appreciated.
+*The Ubuntu 24.04 with NFS issue has been resolved, but unless we respin the release build will not be fixed in 5.1.0.  A fix is already integrated into bitbake and will be in the first point release.
+*Migration to the new autobuilder is proceeding with regular users now encouraged to trigger builds on the new cluster to stress test and identify any issues.
+*There are YP 5.2 proposed milestone dates https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TDrD9nFjosvLHa7EfL_Y1-1slK7u5Am6NZV6QRF2P6s/edit - please review and let us know if there are any concerns.
+*There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.
+*For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:
+**Autobuilder
+**Binary Distro
+**Bitbake config fragments
+**Bitbake setup process/tooling

+*Rust was upgraded to 1.78, thanks Yash.
+*The cve-check/vex series has merged, thanks Marta.
+*quires meta-clang for the intel drivers. We need to make a decision on how to handle this, clang is likely to make its way to core at some point but work is needed to make the overrides suitable for core before that can happen.

+'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
+*YP 4.0.20 is due to be released
+*YP 5.1 M2 is in QA
+*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
+*SPDX 3.0 has merged and is now the default.
+*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.
+*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.
+*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
+*Further help on optimizing build disk usage would be most welcome.
+*Some larger patches still need help with review these would be appreciated:
+**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
+**kernel fitimage changes from Adrian
+**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
+*We’ve been trying to resolve some of the longer standing patches in review and are getting more caught up.
+'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
+*As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
+*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
+*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
+*We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
+*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.

+'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
+*YP 4.0.20 is in QA
+*YP 5.1 M2 is due to be built now SPDX 3.0 has merged
+*SPDX 3.0 has merged, thanks Joshua, Marta and everyone else who has worked on this.
+*We’ve chosen to make SPDX 3.0 the default since it is much more suited to what we do.
+*A number of QA checks were moved from WARN_QA to ERROR_QA. The intention is to allow recipes to be marked up with known issues rather than have builds with warnings people tend to ignore, or ideally have the issues fixed.
+*If layers choose to change ERROR_QA, please do it on a per layer basis with an override, not globally,
+*An upcoming version of Yocto Project Compatible will require some subset of the ERROR_QA checks to be tested and passed for the layer to be compatible.
+*Debug optimization handling was changed, the DEBUG_FLAGS variable was dropped in favor of a new DEBUG_LEVELFLAG which allows distros to more easily change recipe debug levels, in particular to control size.
+*The autobuilder has been running into space issues and we analyzed space usage in a build. Patches are proposed to drop the debug symbols for on target llvm to reduce space usage (along with teaks to qemu and openssl) as the output size is effectively unusable currently. Further work on minimizing disk usage would be very welcome and there is a direct relationship with build speed too.
+*Autobuilder test result/output indexing has been moved to a specific autobuilder job so the work is more visible to all users (the ‘indexing’ builder). The script has been optimized and the output html cleaned up by Sovereign Tech *Fund sponsorship through their contractors: https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/
+*Some larger patches still need help with review these would be appreciated:
+**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
+**kernel fitimage changes from Adrian
+**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
+*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
+*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc. We tested rust 1.78 with master and there is a long list of reported issues on the mailing list unfortunately. Rust 1.77 has a much smaller list of problems at least in initial testing.

+*There is a patch to improve the way the *FLAGS variables operate. It is possible this may change behavior in some corner cases but the usability improvements mean we’re likely to merge the patch and address any issues that arise.
+*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
+**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
+**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
+**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
+*We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first contribution if anyone is interested.
+*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
+**Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.

+*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
+*We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
+*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.
+*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
+*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
