New Features
- UEFI
- Add a test for sanity checking for the UEFI Boot path.(LP: #1316019) - in progress
- Add Auth variable tests? need investigation.
Improvements
- syntaxcheck - assemble/disassemble DSDT+SSDTs in one go, recent changes to iASL make this easier to do and we get better decompilation.
- continue to be in sync with latest ACPICA
- continue to sync kernel log messages with klog database
- continue to work on ACPICA to reduce the coverity scan errors down, fwts: 146/218 defects fixed, 65 outstanding
- fwts: blocked uefirt* tests block fwts indefinitely LP#1309056
- fwts: method test could give more advice on failures LP#1281739
- UEFI
- add subtype support for uefidump scan Media device path, Sub-Type 8 – Relative Offset Range
- review the UEFI variable tests.
- improve secure boot related tests
Process
- creating rules for prefix usages, e.g. adding prefix [FEAT] to the LP bug title to denote new features or feature requests, adding prefix [FWTS-Live] for fwts-live related bugs etc.
revise bug reporting guideline to formally allow people file bugs against the FWTS project in LP directly
- collect opinions about the release process from each release manager
Release Schedule
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UtopicUnicorn/ReleaseSchedule (draft)
- maybe also align with ACPICA releases
