Timeline

Timeout for showstoppers (before they will be downgraded) november 30, trying to move on to RC1 state first week of december.

Showstopper bugs and PRs

• netbsd-11 is not buildable with gcc 14 or newer
• OpenSSH fixes pending, and fixing PR 59685 might cause an ABI break, which we might allow due to this branch being pre the dot-zero release 11.0. Updating to a newer OpenSSH then would be a valid option.
• Any issues found by syzbot may potentially crash the kernel and should be investigated and fixed.
• PR #59185: panic over KASSERTMSG(dev->ud_ifaces == NULL) on Dell Latitude 7490
• PR #59339: heartbeat watchdog fires since 10.99.14
• PR #59615: NPF seems to block all traffic with an HEAD (11.99.x) kernel and netbsd-10 userland
• PR #59681: npf: missing locking around inpcb_lookup in uid/gid checks
• PR #59685: libcrypto should not depend on libpthread
• PR #59691: tstohz(9) fails to round up on some inputs
• PR #59727: wsmux changes in April 2025 seem to have broken kqueue on wsmux

Ongoing projects and unmerged branches

• Wifi renewal on hg - will not make it into 11.
