'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.2 M1 has two major QA issues, one for beaglebone and one for beagleplay
*YP 4.0.24 was released
**A potential fix merged for the first issue, the second remains unresolved, kernel stable upgrades did not fix it.
*YP 5.2 M2 has completed QA and is under review.
**https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15703
*YP 5.0.7 was built and is ready for QA.
**https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15704
*We are now 4 weeks from feature freeze for 5.2
*YP 5.2 M2 is due to build next week and we haven’t resolved M1 yet!
*Patch flow has continued normally, many good fixes, some upgrades and kernel stable updates were merged.
*YP 5.0.6 has been approved for release
*Issues were identified in gomod mirror handling which means the autobuilder meta-oe mirroring target now continually fails. We need to find a solution to this issue ASAP. The alternative is we drop meta-oe mirroring.
*YP 5.1.2 and 4.0.24 are queued in QA
*We plan to merge b4 configuration file support, thanks Quentin.
*There is some discussion about toolchain selection mechanisms via virtual/cross-cc providers on the architecture list which could help with clang integration.
*Due to issues with newer glibc and issues with the valgrind upgrade, we will drop valgrind ptest support since nobody can maintain it.
*There are discussions about how to implement “manifest” based fetchers to handle cargo, go and npm amongst others. We need to solve this problem in a way which everyone can work with but there is limited feedback or involvement in the patch review. Help is needed here to get this right and solve the long standing problems with these forms of software. Thanks to everyone already involved in the discussions.
*Toolchain selection via virtual recipe specific providers was merged
*We were able to upgrade rust to 1.81, thanks!
*Patches for newer binutils, gdb and glibc are pending.
*Various other key changes were merged (fragment handling fix, aclocal cleanup, qemu options fixes, flag ??= support, pytest improvements, deb multilib fixes and more)
*The binutils upgrade removes gold linker support so that will be removed from core.
*A native class extension fix merged but it may cause some wider metadata issues short term since new dependencies are being exposed.
*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.
  • Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
  • We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
