The email details the planning process we will be following along with some of the possible ideas for 2.6. The email is: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2018-April/150040.html * We are now tracking patch status in the tracking metrics below. The percentage of patches with Upstream-Status should stay at 100% now with our monitoring. Over time we want to reduce the percentage in the “Pending” state and the overall number of patches.

Current Dev Position: YP 2.5 M4 final close out. Next Deadline: YP 2.5 M4 release is 4/27/18 SWAT Team Rotation: SWAT lead is currently: Tracy. SWAT team rotation: Tracy -> Stephano on April 20, 2018 SWAT team rotation: Stephano -> Maxin on April 27, 2018 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team Key Status/Updates: * 2.5 M3 was released. There were some issues but we have decided to target these for the final release rather than respinning M3. * Our automated testing shows problems but only on machines in Asia. This was root caused to the timezone settings of the builds. We have therefore moved some of the reproducibility code to be the default (TZ setting) in order to have consistent builds. * Fedora28 has necessitated a late uninative upgrade which is due to merge for 2.5 but may have an issue still to resolve (rpm-native popt issue). * The final 2.5 build is blocked on the fedora28 issue above and the two remaining build issues we are seeing on debian9 machine the QA team has. Our main autobuilder debian9 builds are ok. * Master-next still has a number of recipe upgrades queued which are being rebased continually. We still want to discourage people from sending recipe upgrades until we start 2.6; however, there were simply too many patches to ignore. This has meant various people and build resources have ended up distracted from 2.5 work. * For 2.6 we are looking at a slightly different planning process. In the next monthly team call we will discuss the plans for 2.6. The agenda will be seeded with some high level ideas/goals about what we may be able to do in 2.6. It will then be up to the Yocto Project members and community to decide if they can contribute the time and resources to make them happen (or add to the list). If you are able to work on something in 2.6 please let us know or come to the meeting and discuss it with us so that we can ensure we have an accurate plan! A separate announcement email will be sent out about this in the next few days. Planned upcoming dot releases: YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built after 2.5 YP 2.2.4 (Morty) will be built after 2.5 YP 2.4.3 (Rocko) is planned for post YP 2.5.

SWAT team rotation: Paul -> Tracy on April 13, 2018 SWAT team rotation: Tracy -> Stephano on April 20, 2018 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team Key Status/Updates: * The M3 rc1 QA report has been completed: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WW15_-_2018-04-09-_Full_Test_Cycle_-_2.5_M3_rc1 There are a number of selftest failures and a known SRCREV related issue with the build-appliance. We will look into these, but at this point we don’t foresee these blocking M3 and will aim to start testing release candidates for the final 2.5 release this week. * A problem was spotted with fedora28 which has worryingly decided to merge extra patches ahead of glibc and “break” ABI over the split of libcrypt out of glibc into libxcrypt. Since we will have to handle this, we have decided to change nativesdk-glibc for the 2.5 release but keep on target as is until the situation with upstream glibc becomes clearer. * We realised late in the cycle that we needed to change the LAYERSERIES_COMPAT variable in the core layers. We have also added warnings to make this variable more obvious and required it for Yocto Project Compatible v2 status. It seemed best to make these changes for 2.5 rather than wait until 2.6. * We are considering a final late change to 2.5 to allow poky to use the Yocto Project sstate mirrors by default. Feedback welcome on whether we should do this. It is late in the cycle but would make a good speedup for users potentially. * Armin fixed the SDK locale issues with morty, thanks! We are aware of a related locale build regression on morty sadly. * We were able to upgrade pseudo and have hopefully resolved our fedora27/coreutils issues. Thanks to all who helped! * Master-next has a number of recipe upgrades queued. We still want to discourage people from sending recipe upgrades until we start 2.6; however, there were simply too many patches to ignore. This has meant various people and build resources have ended up distracted from 2.5 work. Planned upcoming dot releases: YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built after 2.5 M3 YP 2.2.4 (Morty) will be built after 2.5 M3 once the glibc 2.27 issue is fixed YP 2.4.3 (Rocko) is planned for post YP 2.5.

SWAT team rotation: Juro -> Paul on April 6, 2018 SWAT team rotation: Paul -> Tracy on April 13, 2018 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team Key Status/Updates: * Two issues have so far been identified in the M3 rc1 build. One is due to differences in build-appliance srcrev between the new and old buildbot autobuilder codebases. The second is an issue with the particular stable kernel version causing problems on 32bit IA which we believe is fixed in current master due to kernel version changes there. * We continue to be blocked with morty on the glibc 2.27 and the sdk locale issues. Armin has been looking into it. * The pseudo issue with newer versions of coreutils as used in fedora27 continues to cause problems, but thanks to some work by several people we do look close to a solution. The help from everyone is much appreciated. * We are now well into the stabilization period and are seeing a number of good patches both to fix current issues and future proof the release, foreseeing potential problems with versions and heading those issues off. Thanks to everyone helping with these. * The codename for 2.6 (after sumo) will be ‘thud’. * As a reminder, general recipe upgrades will not be merged during this period unless there is a pressing reason. Those will be held for 2.6. Planned upcoming dot releases: YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built after 2.5 M3 YP 2.2.4 (Morty) will be built after 2.5 M3 once the glibc 2.27 issue is fixed YP 2.4.3 (Rocko) is planned for post YP 2.5.

Current Dev Position: YP 2.5 M3 final close out. Next Deadline: YP 2.5 M3 cut off was 2/19/18 *** FEATURE FREEZE for 2.5 has passed *** SWAT lead is currently Ross. SWAT team rotation: Armin -> Ross on March 23, 2018 SWAT team rotation: Ross -> Juro on March 30, 2018 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team Key Status/Updates: * YP 2.4.2 was released: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2018-March/040282.html * Meta-intel 8.1 was released: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/meta-intel/2018-March/005261.html * We’ve realised we were going to run into problems with distros adopting glibc 2.27, if not now, during the next release cycle. We therefore decided to head off this problem and try and fix the issues now. Unfortunately, due to locale changes in 2.27, it also breaks our eSDK in the current and all previous releases. We have fixes in master for this (thanks Ross!) and backports ready for rocko and pyro in the -next branches. Morty is proving harder to fix. We believe it is likely better to fix these issue even if the changes are invasive (they are at least mostly contained to the SDKs). * The gcc 6.x changes were merged into rocko/pyro/morty which means point releases are now unblocked by that issue. * The performance issue reported last week was tracked down to a kernel change which was reverted. * The new buildbot autobuilder instance is working with basic functionality. We therefore plan to run the M3 release build on that infrastructure with a view to using it for the main 2.5 release. It was great to be able to report an issue upstream and be using their latest code! The autobuilder functionality is improved in at least two significant ways already which benefit the maintainers. * We really do need to roll M3 now, our current plan is to test the final changes in mut and then run M3 with this. It is not a perfect set of features, many things simply haven’t made it in as the people doing review are overloaded. We’re too far past the freeze deadline to realistically make any further progress with this though. * ELC was productive and there was a lot of good discussion between the people there about many different things. In particular we have some ideas for improving the project’s build infrastructure to allow more builds including other layers. More info will follow as we build the plans to make that happen. Planned upcoming dot releases: YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built after 2.5 M3 YP 2.2.4 (Morty) will be built after 2.5 M3 once the glibc 2.27 issue is fixed YP 2.4.3 (Rocko) is planned for post YP 2.5.

SWAT team rotation: Cal -> Armin on March 16, 2018 SWAT team rotation: Armin -> Ross on March 23, 2018 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team Key Status/Updates: * The Embedded Linux Conference is in Portland this week! * YP 2.4.2 RC2 QA report is being discussed and is expected to be released this week. (https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WW10_-_2018-03-05-_Full_Test_Cycle_-_2.4.2_rc2). * We are changing the planning process and Milestone tracking in Bugzilla. More details can be found here: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2018-March/040226.html * A new uninative release was made (1.8) because distributions are moving to glibc 2.27 and this broke the old uninative. People using uninative should upgrade to this. * GCC 6.x with the latest security fixes is currently in rocko/pyro/morty -next thanks to Martin and Juro. They are undergoing autobuilder testing now but we hope they’ll be merged soon. * Performance metrics indicate that a recent merge has caused a slowdown in build times. It is suspected that the glibc upgrade is the cause of this although help would be appreciated to verify and possibly mitigate this. * Flood of last-minute upgrades continuing to be reviewed and merged if high reward or low impact. * Go upgrade/improvements were merged. For 2.5 we will be shipping both 1.9.4 and 1.10, but plan to drop 1.9.x from master once 1.10 doesn’t present compatibility problems. * EFI image refactoring patches were merged. The gist of these are that /boot is now under package manager control instead of injected at image creation. * A number of patch refresh patches were merged. These are to solve problems with patches applied with “fuzz”, where patch will note that the context isn’t correct anymore but the differences are hopefully small enough to apply anyway. Sometimes this is useful (other changes causing the target lines to move), sometimes it’s actively harmful (patch applied incorrectly, silently breaking behaviour). We hope to warn when fuzz is detected during the 2.6 cycle so these patches are removing fuzz from oe-core. Expect a mail to the lists soon explaining how to find and remove fuzz. * We are continuing to work on the autobuilder changes and for various reasons (inc. changes in people). We would be in much better shape to switch to the new codebase before release, rather than waiting until early 2.6 to pick this work up again by which time we would have lost people and context. If we are to switch, we need to build M3 with the new infrastructure. We plan to make this switch for M3. Planned upcoming dot releases: YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built when GCC backports are merged.

It incorporates security fixes with upgrades to gcc and kernels to all current stable versions. Headline changes include reproducibility improvements, gettext build performance, image generation, and cmake using Ninja by default. This release added gobject-introspection tests to testimage, integrated support for the Meson build system, Python build/packaging refactoring, and redesigned postinstall script handling. * YP 2.2.3 was released February 27. * A total of 97 CVE fixes and other fixes to work with GCC 7 on newer host OSs. * We have committed to a 2.2.4 release to integrate all remaining security fixes. * YP 2.4.2 RC2 came out of QA today (report at https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WW10_-_2018-03-05-_Full_Test_Cycle_-_2.4.2_rc2) * YP 2.5 M3 is in final feature freeze. Reviewing last week’s required features: * 2.27 glibc upgrade has been merged. This meant making SDK changes so they’re all ~50M larger now thanks to the need to ship locales. However the same underlying code could be reused to generate locale archives in images, which will make those smaller. * kernel-devsrc size reduction: the blocking issue has been resolved so waiting for an updated patch. * pseudo upgrade has been merged which should solve many issues, and Peter is investigating the long-standing host contamination issue. * Still need to resolve the multilib SDK patch series. * Package feed filtering has been merged. * Image EFI configuration rework under review now. * Performance metrics indicate that a recent merge has caused a slowdown in build times. It is suspected that the glibc upgrade is the cause of this although help would be appreciated to verify this. * Flood of last-minute upgrades continuing to be reviewed and merged if low-impact. * Go upgrade/improvements are under review, possibly we’ll ship both Go 1.9.4 and 1.10 in 2.5 but do plan to drop 1.9.4 from master as soon as 1.10 doesn’t present compatibility problems. * We’re continuing to work on the autobuilder changes and for various reasons (inc. changes in people).

See https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.2_QA_Status * We build 2.4.2 rc1 however rapidly moving kernel updates combined with QA not having started on rc1 yet meant we decided to build rc2, pulling in further kernel security fixes (as well as others like openssl). rc2 is currently being built and should enter QA today assuming a successful build. * autobuilder.yoctoproject.org continues to be unavailable as we continue to develop the new autobuilder codebase to replace the current heavily customized buildbot one. * We managed to shrink the ltp package size which unblocked some patch merging. Bruce has been working on changes to kernel-devsrc to significantly reduce its size. * The glibc change continues to be blocked on locale issues which may prove tricky to resolve and will block M3 as we need the glibc upgrade for various reasons. * We have some key decisions to make about the conflicting native of pkg-conf and pkgconfig. Maxin has a patch series which exposes the issues. * There are problems with the changes to pseudo’s master branch verses the patches we have against the recipe. * Please note that we are very close to M3 which is feature freeze, technically, feature freeze was yesterday. We’re not in a position to build M3 yet but if there are features you expect to see in 2.5, please highlight those patches ASAP. We are drawing up a list of “must haves” for the release and if we don’t know about it, it likely won’t be on it. Planned upcoming dot releases: YP 2.4.2 (Rocko) is currently being built and should enter QA today. YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built when we figure out gcc backports. YP 2.2.3 (Morty) rc2 is in QA. YP 2.2.4 (Morty) will be built when we figure out gcc backports. Key YP 2.5 Dates are: YP 2.5 M2 cut off is past, it is in QA. YP 2.5 M2 release of 1/26/18 YP 2.5 M3 cut off of 2/19/18 YP 2.5 M3 release of 3/2/18 YP 2.5 M4 cut off of 4/2/18 YP 2.5 M4 release of 4/27/18 Tracking Metrics: WDD 2648 (last week 2610) (https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/charts/combo.html) Key Status Links for YP: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Project_v2.5_Status https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_2.5_Schedule https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_2.5_Features The Status reports are now stored on the wiki at: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Weekly_Status [If anyone has suggestions for other information you’d like to see on this weekly status update, let us know!] -- ___ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
