How it works

Methodology

Investment Quality reclassifies engineering effort based on bug attribution data. Commits identified as buggy origins (those that introduced bugs later fixed by someone) have their grow and maintenance time moved into the Wasted Time category. Their waste (fix commits) remains counted as productive. All other commits retain their standard classification: grow is productive, maintenance is maintenance, and waste (fixes) is productive.

Relationship to Growth / Maintenance / Fixes

The standard model classifies commits as Growth, Maintenance, or Fixes. Investment Quality adds a quality lens: a commit that introduced a bug is retrospectively counted as a poor investment — the engineering time spent on it was wasted because it ultimately required additional fix work. Fix commits (Fixes in the standard model) are reframed as productive, because fixing bugs is valuable work.

Proposed API Endpoint

Currently computed client-side from commit and bug attribution data. Ideal server-side endpoint:

This ensures that developers and users referencing the **platform's BSP API** documentation will encounter clearer, more precise, and up-to-date information, enhancing their understanding of the system's interfaces.Mar 311maint
3f92c5fThis commit performs a **documentation update** to the **BSP API specification**, specifically correcting an example LED color. It **updates the example text** within the `docs/docs/platform/bsp_api_specification.md` file, changing the specified LED color from 'red' to 'amber'. This **maintenance** ensures the documentation accurately reflects the intended or current color usage for LEDs, improving clarity and correctness for developers referencing the platform's Board Support Package API.Mar 311maint
a70a1beThis commit **updates the platform documentation** to standardize and simplify **LED naming conventions** for Board Support Packages (BSPs). It **clarifies the specification** within `bsp_api_specification.md` and `bsp_development_requirements.md` by removing a conditional rule for port LED naming. Consequently, **port LEDs** must now consistently include both port and LED numbers, irrespective of the total number of LEDs per port, which simplifies the overall naming scheme. This **documentation update** aligns the specification with current reality, providing clearer and more consistent guidelines for BSP developers.Mar 312maint
f61e94fThis commit **updates and clarifies documentation** within the **platform BSP API specification** and **BSP development requirements**. It resolves conflicting information between `docs/docs/platform/bsp_api_specification.md` and `docs/docs/platform/bsp_development_requirements.md` by providing consistent and accurate descriptions for **FPGA-related sysfs files**. Specifically, it adds read/write status and detailed explanations for `fw_ver`, `fpga_ver`, and `fpga_sub_ver`, ensuring developers have clear guidance. This **documentation maintenance** improves the accuracy and consistency of information regarding FPGA versioning.Mar 312maint
13bada5This commit introduces a **new test case** within the **BSP platform watchdog tests** (`WatchdogTests.cpp`) to validate a critical error handling scenario. It specifically verifies that attempting to **open an already active watchdog device** correctly fails with an `EBUSY` error, aligning with BSP specifications. This **enhances test coverage** for the **watchdog subsystem**, ensuring the platform's device management adheres to expected error handling behavior and improves the overall robustness of the BSP.Mar 311maint
902d54fThis commit introduces a **new capability** by adding a 'BSP Release' skill for Large Language Models (LLMs), documented in `fboss/.llms/skills/bsp-release.md`. This skill teaches the AI the **end-to-end process for releasing a new FBOSS BSP version**, encompassing all steps from pulling source code using `bspctl` to bumping the BSP version in the platform manager.

c9432d5This commit performs a **maintenance update** by bumping the `bspKmodsRpmVersion` for **Arista Board Support Package (BSP) kernel modules** to `0.7.21-1`. It specifically updates the `platform_manager.json` configurations across several Arista platforms, including `icecube800banw`, `meru800bia`, `blackwolf800banw`, `meru800bfa`, `darwin48v`, and `darwin_netos`. This ensures these platforms utilize the latest kernel module version, while the `darwin` platform is intentionally excluded and remains on an older version. The change primarily affects the **platform configuration management** for these Arista devices, ensuring they are provisioned with the specified kernel module version.Mar 306maint
1d0a435This commit delivers a **robustness improvement** and **bug fix** for the **`fw_util` utility**, specifically addressing its firmware version listing functionality. Previously, the utility would crash and cease listing versions if it encountered any unreadable firmware entries. A `try-catch` block has been implemented within the `printAllVersions` function in `fboss/platform/fw_util/FwUtilVersionHandler.cpp` to gracefully handle these exceptions. This ensures that `fw_util` will now log errors for unreadable versions but continue to list all other accessible firmware versions, preventing crashes and providing more complete diagnostic information to users.Mar 271waste
