The fix is now making its way through various kernel trees upstream. * Sadly, the above fix did not resolve the "rcu" autobuilder VM hangs we are seeing occasionally. These are odd in that they affect kvm and non-kvm builds (x86 and arm seen on x86-64 hosts), they pin the VM at 300-400% CPU usage and the VM will respond to pings but no ssh or console output. The rcu dumps from the kernel are likely a symptom that something is wrong rather than the cause and often look incomplete.

We're working on reporting it upstream. * We have a 10th anniversary T-shirt and some other Yocto Project items (hoody, stickers, mugs etc.) now available at https://yoctoproject.org/shop (EU and Americas sources) * The multiconfig changes in bitbake continue to cause problems, we still need simpler test cases to reproduce issues rather than huge builds. The existing patches seem to fix some workloads and break others. Richard is trying to fix but trying to fix autobuilder issues and other problems and these are slow builds to debug. * Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur and continue to be at record high levels. 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 We are working to identify the load pattern on the infrastructure that seems to trigger these. Ways to contribute: * 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 3.4. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.4_Unassigned_Enhan cements.2FBugs * 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/main tainers.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.
