'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0.15 is under review.
*YP 5.3.1 was released
*YP 5.3.1 is in QA
*YP 6.0 M1 was released
*YP 6.0 M1 will build when the 5 open high bugs are resolved.
*YP 4.0.33 is in QA
*There are also 4 high bugs open for 6.0 M2.
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build next week.
*We are seeing multiple serious issues blocking 6.0 M1 from building:
*There are currently 5 high open bugs, which will block M2. Three have line of sight to being resolved:
**A glibc test causing builds to hang (a buffer overflow SIGABRT in unfs3 triggered by host compiler + fortify source) (#16113)
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 42/43 on older systems (#16087)
**Hangs of the autobuilder controller (database locking, should be fixed) (#16129)
**rust do_test_compile/do_install segfault (#16058)
**Issues with a CVE patch applied to tar in rocky9/alma9/centos-stream using the openat2 syscall which pseudo doesn’t wrap (#16117)
**Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 43 (and maybe ubuntu 25.10) on older systems (patchelf triggered?) (#16074, #16087)
*Two are currently needing further work:
**still need to disable the npm fetcher (#16105)
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
*We have not had this number of high bugs blocking releases in several years
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (#16078)
*The number of intermittent failures affecting stable release builds is becoming problematic. Any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them and we 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 plan to form a dedicated team to investigate these and find ways of removing the failures from our builds which may include reducing testing.
*We are about to drop the 6.12 and 6.16 kernel recipes leaving just 6.18 for the next release
*To be clear, due to the problems above, most patch testing is now stalled as the autobuilder is currently inoperable and we can’t test anything.
*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.
*The project is exploring the idea of applying for funding for security related work. If anyone (individual or consultancies) has ideas, please talk to Paul/Richard/TSC. This is an opportunity to work on those issues you never have time/funding for!
*Patch review is now using two branches:
**“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)
**“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)
*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.
