*The public hash equivalence and sstate share highlighted some issues where builds from sstate were not as optimal as they could be. There are a number of related patches on the mailing list, some are more invasive than others and are marked as RFC. They do fix and improve valid issues but some may be too invasive at this point of the release.
*Changes to do_build task dependencies were merged. Some of these do cause changes in behaviour but in general the behaviour should match what people expect and only some CI setups would need changes. An example would be where an image would have previously built all package backends but now only the image’s format.
*The output hash timestamp issues were resolved and this has improved state reuse.
*The invasive pkgconfig-native dependency changes has been deferred to the next release as people felt it was too invasive for 3.4. Meta-oe and OE-Core are fixed ready though.
*Fixes for a number of open bugs in bugzilla have been posted but some have implications for other layers (e.g. accounting site info in task hashes).
*There is an sstate reuse issue where native sstate on aarch64 and x86_64 hosts isn’t generating correct hashes when combined with hash equivalence.
*Intermittent issues are ongoing and help is very much welcome on these 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
*Issues with pollution of /tmp with temporary files has been noticed on the autobuilder. Help in cleaning this up would be very welcome.
