*YP 5.0.17 was released
*YP 6.0.1 was released
*YP 6.0 M3 was released
*YP 6.1 M1 is in review
*YP 4.0.35 is in QA
*AUH is now running daily in incremental mode. We’re still tweaking some of the behaviours and reporting but if anyone has feedback/concerns, let us know. Help is needed with resolving automatic update failures and getting the patches into a state where they can be accepted.
*YP 6.0 M4 is due to build
*CVE metrics are up on scarthgap & wrynose branches due to delays with kernel upgrades. We’ve had intermittent LTP failures, kconfig type changes, lttng build failures and new warnings in dmesg which we needed to handle. We’re working through this, help is needed to accelerate testing of future stable kernel upgrades.
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
*Systemd v260 will require Linux 5.10 or later. We run some systemd utils on the host during the build, so this presents issues with RHEL 8 era distros which have older kernel versions. If you use one of these distros, assistance may be needed to keep them supported. See https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119870359
*Various fixes have merged or are planned to merge before the M4 release build:
*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.
**Various CVE issue resolutions from CVE triage
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
**Reproducibility issues with strace/apr-util
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic:
**Make race in groff
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
**Shadow-native tallylog issue fix
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**Upgrade of barebox to align with an LTS release
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**Implementation of a wrapper for openat2, fixing Fedora 44 beta build failures
**groff build race issues
**Sbom-cve-check upgrade (along with dependencies)
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
*Issues still pending:
*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
**32bit x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
**Intermittent qemu boot failures of qemuarmv5 (and possibly qemuarm) since the last kernel upgrade
**Intermittent wic failures on the autobuilder
*At this point we will likely run the release build as the remaining issues aren’t critical to end users and we have no clear timeframe for resolution of them
git:// protocol access to git.yoctoproject.org and git.openembeded.org is deprecated and going forward https:// URLs should be used to access git repositories. We are aiming to discontinue git protocol use.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
*The final whinlatter build is happening this week.
