**Testing for toaster is now starting to be enabled on the autobuilder although not all tests are currently passing and there are host specific issues.
*The BB_DEFAULT_EVENTLOG setting has exposed a bug where the bitbake server could hang due to thread deadlocking. A fix has been merged for it yesterday.
**The ability to view existing builds is being extended to allow debugging use of toaster even if the original build didn’t use it
*In support of the above, BB_DEFAULT_EVENTLOG is being proposed as enabled by default in bitbake.conf so that an event log is stored for all builds. This could be useful for debugging outside of toaster in other tools too. There is a small performance/disk footprint overhead but this should be offset by the useful debug data.
*The length of builds (world and oe-selftest) continues to be a concern.
*The length of builds (world and oe-selftest) continues to be a concern.
*When running the first nanbield stable series builds, our LTS maintainer remarked on being unable to get successful green builds. We did make significant improvements on the intermittent issues prior to release but clearly not enough unfortunately. Troubling issues include:
*The intermittent issues on the autobuilder are causing problems for master branch development and stable releases and this is slowing down patch testing and merging. We simply don't have enough people to fix the issues quickly enough and the people we do have are struggling.
**https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15005 - parsing failure on ubuntu2004/debian11 systems, maybe python/pthreads related with host python
*There are some worrying issues around trying to fix the useradd bugs, particularly around inter-sstate task dependencies. There is a discussion about this on the openembedded-architecture list for those interested.
**https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15166 - debuginfod issues (Ross has some debugging improvements pending)
*The Yocto Project Summit is this week so the regular meetings are canceled so people can attend the summit: https://summit.yoctoproject.org/yocto-project-summit-2023-11/ .
**Devtool “initial_rev” race issue, an example failure: https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/87/builds/6082/steps/14/logs/stdio
**several intermittent pstest issues
*There have been several fixes for meta-openembedded reproducibility issues and fixes for mirroring/CVE reporting on stable release branches, thanks Yoann.
