Current Dev Position: YP 5.2 M3 Next Deadline: YP 5.2 M3 Build date 2025-03-03 - Feature Freeze
Next Team Meetings: - Bug Triage meeting Thursday Feb. 13th 7:30 am PST ( https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09) - Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday Feb. 11th 8 am PST ( https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09) <https://zoom.us/j/990892712> - Twitch - See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester Key Status/Updates: - YP 5.2 M2 was released - YP 5.0.7 is under review and passed QA - We are now 3 weeks from feature freeze for 5.2 - The project autobuilder has upgraded the controller to buildbot 4.2 which was tricky due to our custom plugin and changes to the framework used for the UI. The new UI should have the same functionality and seems faster and easier to use in places. - We’d like to request help to process the open github pull requests for openembedded-core and bitbake: - https://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core/pulls - https://github.com/openembedded/bitbake/pulls Having these open doesn’t look good for the projects and we can’t disable them, some have been open for a long time. We did already clean up the poky pull requests. - The project has agreed guidance on AI submissions: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/docs/message/6300 - There are multiple occasional but annoying autobuilder failures we could do with help debugging/fixing, summarized by https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/ : - An occasional hang for non-kvm x86/x86-64 qemu images early in boot, see in multiple kernels including the recent 6.12: https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/valkyrie/#/builders/28/builds/955 https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15463 - dnf failures in where ssh appears to fail, usually on qemumips but also seen on qemuarm: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13674 - Ongoing CDN failures - New memory allocation issues hinting we may need to scale builds back We are open to help developing patches to help debug issue further or other ideas on the causes and/or ways to mitigate them - The Linux Foundation published information on navigating global regulations and sanctions: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/blog/navigating-global-regulations-and-open-source-us-ofac-sanctions Please contact TSC members if there are questions/concerns. - The gomod mirror issue in meta-openembedded continues to give failed builds on the autobuilder. - Gold linker support was removed from core. - Linux 6.6 was removed so we now just have the 6.12 kernel we plan to release YP 5.2 with. - The performance metric charts were improved to be able to show both commit based and time based data, allowing performance changes to be isolated more easily. - The triage team decided to clear out the “newcomer” bugs in bugzilla since the remaining ones were likely too hard without specialist knowledge. We’d love to see new/realist newcomer bugs being added. - The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far! Ways to contribute: - As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components! - There is an issue open upstream with the openssl project related to making path relocation of openssl easier (as used in our buildtools tarball and SDK). We’d love assistance in moving this forward and getting some kind of upstream feature merged to make this easier: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/19260 - There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers - There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.2_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs - We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this. - Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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. - Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics <https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/> - We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated. - 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. - Further help on optimizing build disk usage would be most welcome.
