New Apertis v2019pre.0 preview release available
by Frédéric Dalleau 26 Jun '19

26 Jun '19

Hello everyone, the new Apertis v2019pre.0 preview release is now available! No major changes are expected before the stable v2019.0 release happens next quarter, so people waiting for it can start experimenting with the current preview release. You can find the full release notes at https://wiki.apertis.org/V2019pre/ReleaseNotes Some highlights from this release: * Automatic web-based online OTA updates using OSTree In addition to the automatic offline updates over USB Mass Storage devices, the Apertis update agent now support polling for updates over the network and retrieving the updated contents over HTTPS using OSTree. * NFS boot The artifacts needed to boot Apertis using TFTP/NFS are now part of the official release artifacts, see for instance the ones for the armhf ARM 32bit platform. Booting over TFTP/NFS is an invaluable development help while working on lower level components and in particular when working on the kernel, providing a much faster iteration cycle compared to deploying to a bootable SD card. * Portable toolchain The Apertis toolchain is now also available as a pre-built downloadable tarball ready to be unpacked on systems running third-party distributions such as Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial. Combined with the sysroots it allows developers to reliably and efficiently cross-build binaries for Apertis without having to boot the Apertis SDK. * GitLab-based packaging workflow A new workflow has been set up to make contributing to Apertis much easier. Now any package on Apertis can be updated by submitting merge requests to its corresponding project on GitLab. The Gitlab-based packaging workflow guide walks developers through the steps needed, sensibly lowering the learning curve for developers new to the Debian-based packaging tools. Developers now have a coherent and reliable workflow that applies to all the packages in the archive using the same contribution process used for all the other Apertis projects, while maintainers have finer grained control on the downstream changes that get applied. Currently the workflow is active for all the packages in the :target repository, but support will be extended to all packages soon after this release. The full release notes contain more details about all the work that has landed in this release: https://wiki.apertis.org/V2019pre/ReleaseNotes Images are already available for download at https://images.apertis.org/release/v2019pre/v2019pre.0/ Thanks to everyone who contributed!

New Apertis v2019dev0.0 development release available
by Emanuele Aina 12 Apr '19

12 Apr '19

Hello everyone, the new Apertis v2019dev0.0 development release is now available! You can find the full release notes at https://wiki.apertis.org/V2019dev0/ReleaseNotes Some highlights from this release: * New yearly release cycle >From now on, Apertis has moved to a yearly-based release schedule to provide a more stable and well defined base for product development. Every quarter a new development release is published, leading to a yearly stable release released in Q1 with a default support period of 7 quarters. However, for 2019 the next stable release is planned in Q3, with a shorter development cycle and a preview release in Q2. * Rebase to Debian 10 "Buster" Past releases of Apertis were based on the Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) LTS release but with this release Apertis has rebased directly on top of the upcoming Debian 10 "Buster" release. * Automatic offline updates with rollback Software updates for the base OS can be deployed on USB keys that, once plugged to the device, automatically trigger the update process. Also included is the ability to automatically roll back to the previous version if booting the new one fails for any reason. * Automated test report generation The test results from the daily automated LAVA runs are now collected in a database and a web application renders reports for each run, sending notifications to Mattermost and Phabricator.

New Apertis 18.12.0 stable release available
by Emanuele Aina 06 Dec '18

06 Dec '18

Hello everyone, the new Apertis 18.12.0 stable release is now available! You can find the full release notes at https://wiki.apertis.org/18.12/ReleaseNotes Some highlights from this release: * Base SDK A new simplified recipe for SDK images is part of the release, helping product team to produce customized SDKs for their needs. * Devroots Devroots provide the most reliable way to build packages for foreign architectures, avoiding the complexity and fragility of pure cross- compilation environments. * Apertis NFS rootfs Apertis now provide kernel and rootfs pairs for NFS and uses them to boot the first stage of the LAVA tests, ensuring that hardware support matches between the two stages. * Test case definitions improvements Test case definitions have been converted to YAML and stored in git, providing a better workflow for writing and reviewing testcases and a more solid foundation for further QA enhancements.

New Apertis 18.09.0 stable release available
by Emanuele Aina 28 Sep '18

28 Sep '18

Hello everyone, the new Apertis 18.09.0 stable release is now available! You can find the full release notes at https://wiki.apertis.org/18.09/ReleaseNotes Some highlights from this release: * Testing on immutable rootfs High priority tests have been converted to preserve the base rootfs and carry their dependencies in a self-contained bundle: this improves the value of testing by keeping the tested system as close to the final one and enables testing on systems with a immutable rootfs like the OSTree images. * GPLv3 sources cleanup Some contents covered by the GPLv3 have been removed by packages in the target repository to make licensing scans easier. The involved GPLv3 code has never affected the binary artifacts in the images, but removing it from the packages avoids a considerable amount of whitelisting. * Full file and package lists for each artifact Artifacts now come with metadata files listing shipped packages and files to make checks and collecting statistics much easier/faster. * Automatic updates on Phabricator about test failures in LAVA Test failures are now automatically filed as task in Phabricator, considerably reducing the amount of manual work. * Dockerization of Jenkins jobs Now all jobs run under Docker, massively improving their reproducibility and providing more flexibility.

by Andrew Shadura 19 Mar '18

19 Mar '18

Hello everyone, The new Apertis 18.03 stable release is now available. You can find the full release notes at: https://wiki.apertis.org/18.03/ReleaseNotes Some highlights from this release: * Build infrastructure This release has focused on completing the migration to the new debos building pipeline which was started during the 17.12 release cycle and is now complete. The new pipeline is meant to be faster and more flexible, and also allow developers to easily build custom images on their machines. A design document has been added to cover the high-level concept and infrastructure setup required for debos based image building. Please see the release notes for the details on the new Git repositories for the infrastructure-related files. * API deprecations We have continued to mark obsolete or problematic APIs with the ABI break tag as a way to clear technical debt in future. * LAVAv2 migration We have dropped support for LAVAv1 jobs, having completed the transition started during the preparation of 17.12 release.
