<div dir="ltr"> March 5, 2026 Attendees 12. Patrick Robb 13. Aaron Conole 14. Matthew Labrecque Minutes General Announcements * AI Code Review: * How should the emails to test-report be formatted? * First idea: Result is PASS if AI code review was run, WARN if the AI code review was not run because it did not pass one of the smoke checks * If WARN, add a 1 line body which states which smoke check did not pass * OR (and this might be a better idea, and one Aaron will bring to Stephen) We can have the AI code review itself indicate a PASS or WARN based on whether it identifies significant issues in the patch. FAIL is reserved for when the AI code review is not run at all because one of the smoke checks failed. * Otherwise, we have written up our implementation plan and are good to proceed with the implementation on Jenkins. * Aaron to come into the UNH Lab soon to review the AI code review process with the team. * RC1 was released last week * Ali sent a patch forcing pw_maintainers_cli.py to always return an iterable: <a href="https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/ci/patch/20260305103052.1086957-1-alialnu@nvidia.com/">https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/ci/patch/20260305103052.1086957-1-alialnu@nvidia.com/</a> CI Status AWS Lab * None, running normally UNH-IOL Community Lab * Still debugging issues using large pages for dpdk-test on the server 2025 machine, so that individual test is remaining on server 2022 until we work it out. Patrick to take a look. * 25.11-staging: * We initially forgot to add the 25.11-staging branch to our internal UNH DPDK Lab rest API / database which caused Kevin’s initial runs to fail. Now it is working fine. * It is very important that these branches are ready in good time, and in this case we added support late for 25.11-staging. * We discussed a few ways of approaching this issue. For now, the UNH team will explicitly document in our procedures confluence page actions to take when LTS versions release in Nov, with step by step instructions for enabling ABI, adding the new LTS branches to Jenkins, adding them to our rest API, etc. etc. * FreeBSD is upgraded to 14.3, and sometime next week 14.4 will release and we will upgrade again at that time * Dpdk-minimum-kernel: * The minimum supported kernel version got upped to 5.15, so we are planning our upgrade of our dpdk-minimum-kernel test machine to this kernel version. Intel Lab * None * We met Manju from Intel last week at the DTS meeting. He is working at Intel and running DPDK testing (for internal use, not for CI reports) and he is moving over from legacy DTS to the new DTS now. Github Actions Robot * Aaron has been on PTO but will return to the code coverage work Loongson Lab * None, running normally DTS Improvements & Test Development * Cryptodev: * Latest version looks good and is running on both QAT devices the lab has * Patrick can provide one more review and additional test of the latest version * Flow Offload: * Latest version looks good, but Patrick is sending a few nits. * Dean is adding a new version which adds flow rules for VXLAN packets - if we run out of time we will just merge the version without the VXLAN flow rules. * Patrick is going to send some tiny TREX fixes that we have noticed on some systems (i.e. no more forcing 10 cores for TREX, let the TREX config file decide this) * Andrew sent a patch which adds a multiline comments to nodes.yaml and test_run.yaml explaining the optional fields Any other business * Next meeting is Mar 19, 2026</div>
