Key Status/Updates:
- YP 6.0.3 is under review.
- YP 5.0.20 is in QA.
- YP 6.1 M3 is due to build this week and we are at feature freeze
- For 6.1 M3 our current intent is to merge:
- rpm 6
- openssl 4
- clang 23.1.0
- 7.2 linux kernel
- There were bot protection issues on layerindex causing forbidden errors to queries from layerindex code. These have now been resolved and should be working again.
- AI scrapers and bots continue to impact the infrastructure, taking huge amounts of time for our sysadmins and with a significant cost impact to the project.
- We continue to try and keep up to date with upstream releases through the AUH, big thanks to those sending version updates and fixing version update issues.
- It is worth noting that the ‘success’ updates do still need work on the commit message changelogs and much of this work is being pushed to Richard.
- There are two AB-INT issues which are in a position where others could now help, as detailed in https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/message/242105:
- Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
- aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue
We get a lot of comments about these being hard to reproduce or work on, in both cases, these have specific well defined things which need to be done and a basic understanding of what the issue relates to, if not the actual fix.
- Remaining intermittent build failures of concern:
- other qemu ‘hang’ type issues on ARM
- sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
- intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
- Progress was made on some of the risc-v speed differences in qemu which should help some of the autobuilder intermittent failures, thanks Trevor!
Ways to contribute:
- We have several open issues for pseudo and limited maintainer time to work on them. Help from someone familiar with systems programming in C would be greatly appreciated. https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=661406&priority=High&priority=Medium%2B&product=Pseudo&query_format=advanced&resolution=---
- There are a large number of intermittent failures on our autobuilder, any help with investigating, reproducing or solving these issues would be welcome! https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/
- Many recipes in openembedded-core would benefit from a new recipe maintainer. Please look at https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and see if you can adopt any of the unassigned recipes.
- For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing
