Project data dashboard: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/
Key Status/Updates:
- YP 6.1 M1 was released
- YP 6.0.2 is in review
- YP 5.0.19 is in QA
- We are now two weeks away from M2!
- 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 having some challenges with the autobuilder, both with an NFS server open file/lock build up of some kind causing slowdown and eventual halting of write operations and also a mkdir cache race issue. We are working to debug both issues but it is distracting from other work like patch review and new development (e.g. layer.conf format changes).
- Systemd issues with older host kernels (e.g. RHEL 8) is still being worked on https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119870359
- We have become aware we should ideally replace eudev with a minimal udev build from systemd instead similar to what some other distros are doing.
- We continue to see high load on our infrastructure due to bots and AI scraping. This has primarily caused timeouts and errors accessing git.openembedded.org & git.yoctoproject.org. We have mitigations in place for now. Traditional git:// protocol continues to be disabled.
- We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
- A key pseudo memory corruption issue when interacting with bash was identified and patches are being worked on for a new pseudo release to address this.
- Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic:
- several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
- 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
- We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 6.1 and beyond. We have a roadmap document in Google Docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12xgAzSjDj5zVlo4eQIbiv1s3QMjtBTCvBFY3_T7OPto
Ways to contribute:
- 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=---
- 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/
- 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.
- For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing
