SqlClient unified its Windows and Unix code paths without restructuring the NuGet package, collapsing build complexity across the entire SNI layer.
The biggest move this cycle: SqlClient removes platform-specific builds by feeding the same pattern through the SNI layer and stripping out `_UNIX` and `_WINDOWS` logic [1]. This follows #4207 and clears the path to identical compiled code for both Windows and non-Windows platforms while preserving package structure. On the test infrastructure front, legacy CI pipelines now run daily instead of weekdays-only to catch health regressions faster [2], and the Kerberos pipeline moved under `ci/` with a renamed file for consistency [3]. Over on aspnetcore, the team mapped [Obsolete] attributes to OpenAPI deprecated flags across operations, schemas, and properties [4], landed a fix for JsonPatchDocument serialization that ignores the From field on add, remove, replace, and test operations [5], and hardened SignalR's stateful reconnect logic to account for recent state-machine changes [6]. Runtime also shipped fixes: BootJsonData generation now respects runtimeconfig.dev.json for Hot Reload in debug builds [8], SignedXml now compares full HMAC against full SignatureValue to close a timing-side-channel risk [9], and ARM64 improved HW_Flag_ReturnsPerElementMask support with better ConditionalSelect handling [10]. A breaking change in runtime dependencies landed from dotnet/runtime-assets [7], and wasm modeled class-init helpers as value-returning in the JIT for signature consistency [11].
