Revision as of 04:43, 16 October 2019

NOTE: The formatting in this page is not meant to look good in the wiki - it's just a convenient place to collaborate. We need to stick to the text formatting that will end up in the actual release notes.

Security Fixes

New Features / Enhancements

Linux kernel 5.2/4.19, gcc 9.2, glibc 2.30 and ~260 other recipe upgrades
New INIT_MANAGER variable to make it easy to select the init manager (sysvinit, systemd, mdev-busybox)
poky-lsb replaced by poky-altcfg for alternate configurations to be tested on the autobuilder (as well as an example of subclassing a distro config)
New recipes: binutils-cross-testsuite, core-image-sato-ptest-fast, dejagnu, efibootmgr, efivar, ell, glibc-testsuite, libcap-ng-python, libedit, libmodule-build-perl, libx11-compose-data, libxcrypt-compat, lsb-release, musl-obstack, opensbi, python3-pygments, python3-scons, python3-scons-native, stress-ng, vulkan-headers, vulkan-loader, vulkan-tools, wireless-regdb
Significant removal of old/obsolete software/patches ensuring we have a modern and up to date core Linux software stack.

 - LSB support moved to separate layer [was it??]
 - GTK+ 2 moved out to meta-oe
 - Python 2 dependencies minimised
 - many obsolete patches dropped

Build change equivalence is detected and used to avoid rebuilding unchanged components
Adoption of SPDX license identifiers throughout Yocto Project's components
"Multi-Config" builds reaching their full potential

 - Many bugfixes and improvements
 - sstate cache is now shared between configurations being built concurrently
 - multiconfig configurations can be contained in layers

CVE checking enhancements:

 - New cve-update-db recipe that reads from NVD JSON data feeds and supports network proxies
 - Support for CVSSv3 scoring
 - CVE_PRODUCT entries can now contain strings to match the vendor as well as product (vendor:product syntax)
