Key Status/Updates:

·        The 2.2.1 release has been held up by a bug in eSDK which we now know 
was ‘fixed’ by some of the tinfoil2 changes. Those clearly won’t be backported 
to 2.2 so we’re looking into what we need to do to fix this in 2.2 instead.

·        Master has continued to be problematic to merge patches into. We have 
tracked down a glibc 2.25 issue with python3 on older hosts (e.g. centos7) 
which was causing some hard to isolate autobuilder failures.

·        The M2 deadline has now passed. We were able to merge the oeqa rewrite 
and recipe specific sysroot patches. Unfortunately as yet we still don’t know 
the exact performance impact of this change but we’ve opted to move forward 
with it regardless.

·        Master now contains all the patches we’ve been able to get to work 
cleanly. Examples of things which did not merge are the linux-libc-headers (due 
to musl issues) but we did merge the actual kernel updates and the container 
changes as the selftests didn’t pass.

·        Since master builds cleanly and has a lot of change in as it stands, 
we’re tempted just to call this good for M2 and start the QA cycle.

·        One particular challenge we continue to face is the length of time 
oe-selftest takes to run and we plan to have a focus on this during M3.
