changes which effectively promote us to ‘memres’ bitbake (see below).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</span></span></span><![endif]><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">There are some patches in progress to rework the bitbake server backend to improve the code, make ‘memres’ the default operation mode (with a 0 timeout
so the server always unloads) and to drop “xmlrpc” as a different transport mode and allow xmlrpc clients to optionally connect to the bitbake process server for remote UIs. Patches are currently in -next but have not been posted for review as yet. It allows
a massive code simplification and simplifies the bitbake process handling and removes various race and zombie process issues that have plagued us for a while. Currently this code works, except for tinfoil under some circumstances for reasons as yet unknown.
This is a significant change and we like to get it into the release early for wider testing but it’s not ready yet. The question is therefore whether to push this into M2, making M2 a little risky and late but testing a high value feature or to delay it until
M3.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
