Hi,

The following covers the functional tests that we ran on Mellanox hardware for this release:
- Basic functionality:
  Send and receive multiple types of traffic.
- testpmd xstats counter test.
- testpmd timestamp test.
- Changing/checking link status through testpmd.
- RTE flow tests:
  Items: eth / vlan / ipv4 / ipv6 / tcp / udp / icmp / gre / nvgre / vxlan / ip in ip / mplsoudp / mplsogre
  Actions: drop / queue / rss / mark / flag / jump / count / raw_encap / raw_decap / vxlan_encap / vxlan_decap / NAT / dec_ttl
- Some RSS tests.
- VLAN filtering, stripping and insertion tests.
- Checksum and TSO tests.
- ptype tests.
- link_status_interrupt example application tests.
- l3fwd-power example application tests.
- Multi-process example applications tests.

Functional tests ran on:
- NIC: ConnectX-4 Lx / OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / Driver: MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.4-1.0.3.0 / Firmware: 14.31.1014
- NIC: ConnectX-4 Lx / OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / kernel: 5.14.0-rc7 / Driver: rdma-core v36.0 / Firmware: 14.31.1014
- NIC: ConnectX-5 / OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / Driver: MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.4-1.0.3.0 / Firmware: 16.31.1014
- NIC: ConnectX-5 / OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / kernel: 5.14.0-rc7 / Driver: v36.0 / Firmware: 16.31.1014

Compilation tests with multiple configurations in the following OS/driver combinations are also passing:
- Ubuntu 20.04.2 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.4-1.0.3.0.
- Ubuntu 20.04.2 with rdma-core master (64d1ae5).
- Ubuntu 20.04.2 with rdma-core v28.0.
- Ubuntu 18.04.5 with rdma-core v17.1.
- Ubuntu 18.04.5 with rdma-core master (5b0f5b2) (i386).
- Ubuntu 16.04.7 with rdma-core v22.7.
- Fedora 34 with rdma-core v36.0.
- Fedora 36 (Rawhide) with rdma-core v36.0 (only with gcc).
- CentOS 7 7.9.2009 with rdma-core master (64d1ae5).
- CentOS 7 7.9.2009 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.4-1.0.3.0.
- CentOS 8 8.3.2011 with rdma-core master (64d1ae5).
