<div dir="ltr"> ##################################################################### March 13, 2025 Attendees * Patrick Robb * Paul Szczepanek * Luca Vizzarro ##################################################################### Minutes General Discussion * The DTS talk for Prague was accepted * CFP writeup: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Bb-JDAGzn5BjEvypafG0azQqhVBxXuF8klFZ1xiUnmo/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Bb-JDAGzn5BjEvypafG0azQqhVBxXuF8klFZ1xiUnmo/edit?usp=sharing</a> * Roadmap check in: * TREX/TG support is pushed to next release, but Nick is working on this currently * VF support has a V5 but will not be merged with this release. ===================================================================== Patch discussions * Per testsuite configuration: * 1 monolithic testsuite config file * Merged * VF port support patch and new questions:<div> * 1. Can we just destroy all VFs at DTS testrun setup? * 2. Does creating the max number of vfs make the framework too slow? * Patrick should look through the existing testplans and see what the VF # requirements are (i.e. are they 1:1 with PFs in all cases) * Perhaps the testsuites themselves should act as the source of truth for number of VFs created * TREX perf TG support: * Some of the methods in the traffic_generator class are really for capturing traffic generators - Nick is redefining the abstractions, has stubbed out methods needed for perf TGs, and is implementing those in trex.py * Dean is refactoring some old testsuites: * Port stats check: done (Patrick still needs to review) * rx/tx_offload: Nearly done * Ethertype: * Luca will no longer pick this up (Nick can do this during 25.07) * VLAN/TPID Filtering testcases for the ethertype testsuite cannot be run on some devices in the UNH lab due to <a href="https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1464">https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1464</a> * UNH guys will work with the Intel and Broadcom PMD maintainers to resolve these filtering issues, and then circle back to this testsuite for 25.07 * Packet capturing improvements: * Current implementation provides arg for filtering. We have chosen to not allow usage of packet filtering so far. * Luca wants to modify the sniffing so that it will run during the entire testrun instead of starting and stopping - packets can be pulled from the sniffer as needed. ===================================================================== Bugzilla discussions * ===================================================================== Any other business * Roadmap status: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1doTZOOpkv4D5P2w6K7fEJpa_CjzrlMl3mCeDBWtxnko/edit?tab=t.0">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1doTZOOpkv4D5P2w6K7fEJpa_CjzrlMl3mCeDBWtxnko/edit?tab=t.0</a> * Next meeting is Mar 13, 2025 </div></div>
