Key Status/Updates:
-
We are now at feature freeze for 5.0, preparing to build M3
-
YP 4.3.3 passed QA and is in review pending release
-
The changes which we’d still like to see in 5.0 that have not merged yet
are:
-
genericarm64 machine (there is a draft and it is close)
-
QA screenshot comparison
-
sstate permissions issue testcase
-
Several changes have merged for M3:
-
ncurses based task dependency explorer (thanks David!)
-
change to rust test suite logging
-
useradd fix
-
dbus configuration security fix
-
bitbake hashserve improvements to better position future server
capability/functionality
-
tweaks to support recipe locale support
-
support for BB_LOADFACTOR_MAX
<https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=08aa69a1fd7983dcf93d283e47e3c5ac9bd377b1>
load regulation in bitbake when psi is unavailable.
-
further IDE integration tweaks and improvements
-
There are also several concerning issues without any clear resolution
path at present:
-
rust upgrade blocked by reproducibility issues
-
musl upgrade blocked by large number of unsubmitted pending patches
-
nativesdk-systemd usage broken by usrmerge requirement (we can’t
changing the SDK layout now)
-
go isn't upgraded (although there now are partial patches)
-
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.
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 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 5.0. See:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.0_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.

<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.
