Yocto Project Weekly Status June 25th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.1 M2
Next Deadline: YP 5.1 M2 Build 8 July 2024

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 4.0.19 and YP 5.1 M1 were released
  • YP 5.0.2 was built and is entering QA.
  • There were some great patch status cleanups, thanks Alexander (will show in next week’s metrics)
  • There is a patch to improve the way the *FLAGS variables operate. It is possible this may change behavior in some corner cases but the usability improvements mean we’re likely to merge the patch and address any issues that arise.
  • Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
    • Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
    • Improved CVE tooling from Marta
    • bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
  • We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first contribution if anyone is interested.
  • There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
    • Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
    • Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
  • We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc.

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 4.0.19 is ready for release.
  • YP 5.1 M1 is ready for release.
  • Patch status tags are now checked for by default. Layers which don't wish this can disable the error by removing patch-status from ERROR_QA.
  • Fedora 40 support should be almost complete. GCC 14 is the gift that keeps on giving, the last issue I'm aware of is in 'expect' and there are now two competing patches for that.
  • Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
    • Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
    • Improved CVE tooling from Marta
    • bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
  • We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first contribution if anyone is interested.

Yocto Project Weekly Status June 4th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.1 M1
Next Deadline: YP 5.1 M1 Build 20 May 2024

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 4.0.19 is in QA
  • YP 5.1 M1 rc1 is building
  • We identified the performance problem in bitbake using hash equivalence servers and have made changes to batch queries and improve build times
  • Extra logging for that performance problem is available by setting BB_LOGCONFIG=XXX/bitbake/contrib/autobuilderlog.json (the more verbose logging the autobuilder uses) which will then show if initial query or rehash looping takes longer than 30s for iterations or 60s overall.
  • We changed locked-sigs to include the hash equivalence mapping data, removing the need to copy the cache file.
  • Libtool was upgraded to the 2.5.0 alpha release, many patches were merged upstream.
  • Qemu has been upgraded to 9.0.0, kernel headers to 6.9 and stable and dev kernel updates merged (to 6.6.32)
  • There is one remaining issue on fedora40, systemtap-native does not build. The other Fedora 40 are believed to be fixed.
  • Some layers are setting fallbacks for UNPACKDIR which break OE-Core by trying to claim compatibility with everything. Errors have been added to make this problem clear.
  • sstate has had changes to fix a bug where build-history data was inconsistent. The siteconfig class was removed to make that change easier and improve the code, it was mostly unused anyway.
  • The parallelism in the hash client was removed as batching queries is much more effective and easier on the server.
  • There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
  • Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
  • Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
  • There is a further update from Marta/Syslinbit on the CVE tooling/patches
  • We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc.
  • Post release upgrading is resulting in an improvement in patch metrics which is great to see, more should appear next week in the statistics too.

Yocto Project Weekly Status May 28th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.1 M1
Next Deadline: YP 5.1 M1 Build 20 May 2024

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 5.0.1 has been released.
  • We have suspected a performance problem for a while, this has now been identified/confirmed as an issue with hash equivalence. The public server using websockets/SSL has significantly slowed down things, to the point a 2 hour world build is taking 18+ hours. In trying to improve this, we ended up destablising the autobuilders entirely, breaking many builds and halting the patch merging.

The problem is visible both at build initialization time and also at any point it rehashes due to new hash information from the server. We are still trying to work out ways to improve things but there appears to be multiple levels of different problems, including the hashserve client parallelism seeming to have bugs. The issue affects scarthgap as well as master.

  • A new gcc 14 compatible version of uninative was released allowing fedora 40 testing. Unfortunately there are issues with build failures on that host that are as yet uninvestigated.
  • The WORKDIR to UNPACKDIR transition has merged and other layers are now working on the updates needed. There appear to be some challenges around go modules in particular which are needing more investigation and development time.
  • We aim to build YP 5.1 M1 after the performance issue is addressed and we have stable builds.
  • We were able to merge a chunk of pending patches but things are still processing slowly unfortunately.
  • There are some CVE related announcements which are helpful to us:
    • There was a CVE 5.1 Record format announcement with changes that encourage more useful data from our perspective
    • CISA announced on linkedin the creation of https://github.com/cisagov/vulnrichment
    • Unfortunately there are reports that the backlog of CVEs without version constraints is growing rapidly
  • There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
    • Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
    • Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
  • The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.
  • The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal, also not helped with the performance issue identfiied above.
  • Further performance graph improvements have merged and the graphs now have links to specific revisions allowing regressions to be much more easily tracked down.

  • The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date. Marta sent out an update last week on this (thanks!)
  • gcc 14 has merged to master. There are errors in meta-arm, meta-virtualization and meta-mingw. Now that has merged, we will build and release a new uninative version.
  • More of the WORKDIR to UNPACKDIR transition has merged and devtool oe-local-files support has been dropped.
  • The next stage of the WORKDIR changes is pending testing in master-next.
  • The aim is to build YP 5.1 M1 as soon as the various queued patches stabilize.
  • The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal.
  • Automated testing continues to show large numbers of problems (e.g. a reproducibility issue in spirv-tools) but we continue to work through and fix issues as quickly as we can.
  • Two issues causing failures on the new test infrastructure were tracked down to problems in bitbake. Both were effectively timing related issues.

PR server pass through support merged.

  • A rust build issue of x86 hosted builds vs arm hosted builds has been identified as the cause of intermittent failures. Whilst this can be fixed, the fix breaks tests and/or reproducibility which gives challenges given the need to fix scarthgap. There are also challenges upgrading to newer rust versions.
  • The performance graph improvements have merged.
  • Improvements to the patch and CVE metrics page have also merged.

  • The WORKDIR to UNPACKDIR transition and redefinition of UNPACKDIR now has patches under testing in master-next, including updates to recipetool and devtool which pass our automated tests.
  • gcc 14 has patches pending thanks for Khem and Martin in particular. Merging the new gcc version is needed to generate new uninative tarballs to support Fedora 40 builds or any other distro using the new gcc version.
  • The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal.
  • Mailing list changes now mean any google hosted email accounts have the mailing list From: address rewritten. This had impacted our ability to handle patches but key maintainers now have workarounds for this.
  • Our automated tests have been seeing a number of intermittent issues. An email was sent detailing a few of these and the response with several patches or patches in progress has been extremely helpful and they’re very gratefully received.

Yocto Project Weekly Status May 7th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.1 M1
Next Deadline: YP 5.1 M1 Build 20 May 2024

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 3.1.33 has been released
  • YP 4.0.18 is due to be released
  • There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990 Please consider signing this to show support for those changes. Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
  • The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.
  • There are proposals on the openembedded-architecture list to rework how do_unpack works, switching it from WORKDIR to a new variable and changing some directory layout.
  • The introduction of UNPACKDIR has happened, maintainers should be able to improve their S=WORKDIR recipes (which should use S, not WORKDIR/UNPACKDIR) and fix the common use of WORKDIR in do_compile/do_install to access files from SRC_URI which should now be UNPACKDIR.
  • gcc 14 has patches pending thanks for Khem and Martin in particular. Merging the new gcc version is needed to generate new uninative tarballs to support Fedora 40 builds or any other distro using the new gcc version.
  • The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal.
  • Mailing list changes now mean any google hosted email accounts have the mailing list From: address rewritten. This had impacted our ability to handle patches but key maintainers now have workarounds for this.

Yocto Project Weekly Status April 16th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.0 preparing to build rc2
Next Deadline: 1st April 2024 YP 5.0 M4 build

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 5.0 rc1 is building but has many (6+) failures in the build so will have to be abandoned.
  • The final dunfell build will follow 5.0 into QA.
  • The master branch has diverged from scarthgap.
  • For 5.0, we were able to switch to the new hash equivalence server however the need for websockets complicated the worker configuration and needed new buildtools tarball versions which are causing various problems.
  • During the rc1 build as well as pip and setuptools issues within buildtools, we also saw a qemuppc boot issue, an instance of the spdx dependency problem, an sstate mirror issue and a github network error. This highlights how important fixing these is over the release cycle. The volume of these may impact our ability to maintain the LTS.
  • Thanks to everyone who sent documentation patches, we’re in much better shape with the migration guide and release notes now. Further improvements are still very welcome.
  • The “Binary Distro” work is now well underway and there are PR Server passthrough and image testing patches under review. The wiki page has had a number of policy/process proposals documented, help is welcome to help improve these, or highlight where further documentation is needed.
  • There are patches for improving the build performance graphs in review. Sample output from the changes is here and here.
  • There are also patches under review for the patch/cve metrics page to improve the usability.
  • We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) situation, the recent update didn’t clarify much. Unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a clear path forward as yet but using data directly from MITRE may help give partial information. These issues are making it hard to know what to include in the 5.0 release as it isn’t clear which changes are security related.

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 4.3.4 is due to be released.
  • YP 5.0 rc1 is now due to build when ready.
  • All dunfell patches should have been sent now in preparation for an April 15 build. This will be the last release of dunfell.
  • For 5.0, we are still hoping to switch the hash equivalence server before running the release build but that is the only remaining pending change. We do also still need documentation work for the release
  • A new yocto-status mailing list has been created where we plan to send just the project weekly status reports and any other suitable updates on the project. This should help those who found the traffic of the other mailing lists too much.
  • A yocto-patches mailing list has been setup and patches that used to go to the yocto@ list will be migrating over to this new list, making yocto@ a bit more friendly for questions and discussions. Information in layers is being updated to reflect this.
  • We received some disappointing feedback from a key organization in the RISC-V ecosystem that the Yocto Project was not important and not worth funding. We will take this feedback into account.
  • The “Binary Distro” work is now well underway and there are PR Server passthrough patches under review. The wiki page has had a number of policy/process proposals documented, at least as a first pass. Help is welcome to help improve these, or highlight where further documentation is needed.

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 4.0.17 has been released.
  • YP 4.3.4 is in QA and is the final planned nanbield release.
  • YP 5.0 rc1 is now due to build when ready.
  • Steve is taking patches for Dunfell until around April 8 in preparation for an April 15 build. This will be the last release of dunfell.
  • 5.0 build status:
    • The opkg lock issue has been worked around for now in the run-postinsts script
    • An intermittent oe-selftest failure (sstatetests hang) was tracked down to a race in tinfoil event handling.
    • The public hash equivalence server changes aren’t ready yet unfortunately
    • There are issues with the size of the buildhistory repository which is being split up, this needs to happen before we can build the release.
    • A key worry now is the documentation for the release, especially given it is an LTS. There are emails on the docs list about this, help is much appreciated. This will now be the main delay on the release timeframe.
  • A new yocto-status https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-status/topics mailing list has been created where we plan to send just the project weekly status reports and any other suitable updates on the project. This should help those who found the traffic of the other mailing lists too much.
  • A yocto-patches https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-patches/topics mailing list has been setup and patches that used to go to the yocto@ list will be migrating over to this new list, making yocto@ a bit more friendly for questions and discussions.
  • Some other obsolete mailing lists were removed or made read-only to try and make it easier for people to find the right place to see/send things.
  • Debian 12 and Fedora 40 containers have been added to crops (Thanks Rob Wolley)
  • All the crops yocto-base containers now include python3-virtualenv
  • The “Binary Distro” work is now well underway and there are PR Server passthrough patches ready for review. The wiki page https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Binary_Distro_Prototype#Policies_and_Processes has had a number of policy/process proposals documented, at least as a first pass. Help is welcome to help improve these, or highlight where further documentation is needed.
  • One year after the original linux.com article, an update was published: https://www.yoctoproject.org/blog/2024/03/28/maintainer-confidential-challenges-and-opportunities-one-year-on/
  • There was a significant security issue with xz release tarballs. We never merged the affected version and it was never in any of our main branches but we did test it on the autobuilder and saw build failures. We continue to watch for information on any potential implications of that. We have removed the compromised tarballs from our mirrors.
  • We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) situation, the recent update didn’t clarify much. Unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a clear path forward as yet.

  • YP 5.0 M3 has been released.
  • YP 4.0.17 is under review and due for release.
  • Steve is taking patches for Dunfell until around April 8 in preparation for an April 15 build. This will be the last release of dunfell.
  • There was a regression on beaglebone in 5.0 M3 where X11 wasn’t working but this has been fixed in master ready for the release.
  • A key worry now is the documentation for the release, especially given it is an LTS. There are emails on the docs list about this, help is much appreciated.
  • For M4, we are still hoping to transition to a different public hash equivalence server before release. We have stopped taking general point release upgrades to recipes unless there is a security or other key reason to take them. *The key remaining fix needed before building is for the opkg lock issue.
  • The opkg lock issue is now understood but the best fix is still under discussion/ development.
  • One set of the problematic autobuilder failures was tracked down to a queued but unmerged bitbake patch. There are other intermittent issues which still need to be root caused, at least one failure was also due to system load issues.
  • We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) issue and await further information about what the future holds there (https://nvd.nist.gov/ - “You will temporarily see delays in analysis efforts during this transition”)

Yocto Project Weekly Status March 19th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.0 M4 - Final Release
Next Deadline: 1st April 2024 YP 5.0 M4 build

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 5.0 M3 has been through QA. There is one major issue, we will likely release M3 and fix that in M4.
  • YP 4.0.17 is in QA.
  • There is a regression on beaglebone testing where X is no longer starting which was found during M3 QA. Fixes are under discussion for this and will be in M4.
  • A key worry now is the documentation for the release, especially given it is an LTS. There are emails on the docs list about this, help is much appreciated.
  • The opkg lock issue with systemd images continues to be a significant concern for the release. We do now have a way to reproduce the bug and it is due to “opkg configure” being executed in a postinstall script whilst opkg install has the lock.
  • There is a uninative issue showing up with newer distros due to the glibc changes where the pthread library is no longer separate. There are patches in testing to try and mitigate against this.
  • There are multiple other failures occurring on the autobuilder but no specific pattern has been identified as yet. One test build had 4 different failures, and 2 of them were new never seen before issues. There is also some kind of issue with devtool/recipe tool test isolation in selftest which needs to be tracked down.
  • The previously reported CVE database update issue has been mitigated for now but further improvements to the autobuilder process for generating the metrics may still be needed.

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • We are now at feature freeze for 5.0, preparing to build M3
  • YP 4.3.3 was released
  • YP 3.1.32 is in QA
  • Several changes have merged for M3:
    • genericarm64 machine (also added to autobuilder)
    • go upgrade to 1.21.7
    • rust upgrade to 1.75
    • change to bmaptool hosting
    • using ipk to generate poky-altcfg images with extra space added
    • 6.6.20 stable kernel update
    • ability to use “extratools” on autobuilder for tests (e.g. imagemagick components)
  • Changes still needed or under consideration
    • genericarm64 helper artefacts publishing changes
    • QA screenshot comparison
    • sstate permissions issue testcase
    • go upgrade to 1.22 (tests cleanly on oe-core now, concerns for other layers)
  • We are seeing some odd failures, there was a devtool selftest failure (bug 15418 filed) and also an opkg lock issue as we enabled ipk images but that hasn’t recurred (yet). The opkg lock issue has been seen in builds by Khem previously.
  • There is a concerning problem when trying to update the CVE database since CPE restrictions don’t always update when changed upstream. This is causing higher numbers of CVEs to be reported on the autobuilder generated charts.
  • There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. We will trial qemuriscv64 support in M3 but remove it before the final LTS release as there is no sponsor for that support.

  • YP 4.3.3 is in QA.
  • We are now a week from feature freeze for 5.0, our next LTS release
  • The BBFILE_PRIORITY change is being deferred as unfortunately it causes problems with bbappend ordering.
  • There have been fixes for python 3.12, recipe upgrades, kernel stable version bump and many other fixes and improvements this week.
  • The ‘scarthgap’ layer series name has merged to core. Compatibility with nanbield will be removed soon so maintainers will need to update their layers ASAP for the new release series.
  • Patch testing, review and merging is still a little behind due to the volume of failures combined with builds needing long buildtimes to do rebuilding core components like the compiler or libc.
  • Several performance regressions were identified in bitbake for world builds and patches have merged to try and improve those.
  • LLVMVERSION has been dropped from OE-Core since it doesn’t need it. This resolves a long standing issue/conflict with meta-clang but may need fixes for other layers that rely upon the variable.
  • There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS.

  • Whilst late in the cycle for this, the benefits appear compelling.
  • Patch testing, review and merging is proving tricky at the moment as many patches are having poor interactions with other recipes, or corner case bugs (e.g. glibc mips issues).
  • There were many recipe upgrades merged including glibc and binutils, key fixes to pseudo, rpm issues root caused, ltp tests upgraded and expanded and arm tune file additions.

  • We have dropped the 6.1 kernel leaving just 6.6 in master for our 5.0 release
  • We were able to get a number of libtool patches merged upstream and the libunwind recipe was cleaned up a lot too.
  • Patches to fix rust tests are queued, thanks Yash for getting these working again.
  • The inherit_defer changes have merged. There are some reported issues of poor interaction with class-native overrides. There isn’t a regression but unfortunately inherit_defer has an unforeseen issue with the override handling. See bug 15361
  • We’ve opted to keep rng-tools in OE-Core for now since it appears a small subset of hardware does require it.
  • It is great to see patches adding test cases for the issues they’re fixing or functionality they’re adding. We cannot stress how useful this is over the medium/long term to keep things maintained, thanks!

Yocto Project Weekly Status January 16th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.0 M2
Next Deadline: 15th January 2024 YP 5.0 M2 build

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 4.3.2 passed QA and is in review.
  • YP 5.0 M2 is due to build this week
  • The inherit_defer work highlighted a bug in EXPORT_FUNCTIONS handling. This was fixed but does change behavior in some real world usages of the function where the incorrect behavior was being relied upon.
  • EXPORT_FUNCTIONS is defined as mapping to those ‘namespaced’ functions only if there isn’t a real definition of that function.
  • The inherit_defer changes will likely merge into M2.
  • There has been at least one serial issue that reappeared with the 6.6 kernel on the autobuilder unfortunately.
  • A bug was fixed in the bitbake –runall option where it wasn’t building as much as it should have.
  • The recipe reporting system on the layer index is now functional again, thanks Tim!

Yocto Project Weekly Status January 9th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.0 M2
Next Deadline: 15th January 2024 YP 5.0 M2 build

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 3.1.30, 4.0.15 and 5.0 M1 were released
  • YP 4.3.2 is in QA
  • Rust was upgraded from 1.71.1 to 1.74.1 in master. 1.75 has reproducibility issues.
  • We were able to remove all exclusions on reproducibility in OE-Core and it is once again 100% reproducible.
  • The sstate-cache-management script was rewritten in python. It is possible there are regressions compared to the previous version, we’ll have to fix them as they’re identified.
  • A workaround for the long standing autobuilder failures on debian11 and ubuntu 18.04 was identified by preloading libgcc. This is now applied for python 3.8 and 3.9 versions within bitbake.
  • We have switched to the 6.6 linux kernel
  • There are patches proposing new “inherit_defer” syntax for bitbake to handle conditional inherits in a way more in keeping with user expectations. Please see the discussion on the openembedded-architecture list.
  • Functions related to signature/hash debugging had an API change resulting in a need to update bitbake and OE-Core together to allow the functionality to be improved.
  • Improvements to the CDN tests and signature debugging were merged which improve usability and also address intermittent autobuilder failures
  • Regarding bugs, even if you can’t fix a bug, submitting a failing test case that can reproduce the issue significantly improves the chances it might get fixed.
