CI Status
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
UNH-IOL Community Lab
* Ready to deploy an internal system to periodically refresh Docker images
* This will also update the ABI references to prevent false failures
* Refactoring Jenkins pipelines to increase efficiency of testing
* We are actively working on reducing the backlog by optimizing
allocation of resources within Jenkins
* Bare-metal downtime last week due to:
* TRex ignoring return values indicating an error
* This causes segfaults on any card with an xstats count > 0
* It took a substantial amount of time to track this down
* Upstream patch generated to TRex:
https://github.com/cisco-system-traffic-generator/trex-core/pull/761
* Changes to DTS since the last update requiring re-testing
* Bare-metal status
* Mellanox and Broadcom on ARM are non-functional. All other NICs should
be reporting up.
* Mellanox systems updated to the latest versions of TRex (bug above
didn’t impact that system), other systems were rolled back to known working
versions.
* Mellanox pass/fail criteria updated to 1.5%, per their request.
* TRex and a couple of DTS bugs (divide by zero was reintroduced) will
need to be patched, before upgrades can proceed.
* FreeBSD 13.0
* Fix for 1 of the two unit test issues has been submitted:
http://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20210917150917.90892-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com/
* ABI failure 20.11
* Need to investigate / confirm ABI failure for
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/tarballs/16879/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intel Lab
* pf_smoke / test_pf_rss test case has been disabled, while waiting for a
fix to be merged into the mainline. Fixed has been merged into next-net,
and should be in mainline by the end of the week. Need to make sure we
notify the Intel lab team to re-enable the test.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Github Actions & OBS
* OBS working on the final revisions for the patch.
* Github Actions and zero-day bot is currently down. Server hosting the
service had a hardware failure (occurred Monday). Should be restored by
next week. The team has backups of the VM running the jobs.
==========================================================================
Test Development
* Finished categorizing the feedback DTS. Creating an Excel (Google Sheet)
issue tracker, so developers can be assigned, this may then be ported into
Bugzilla
* Next DTS Meeting: TBD
==========================================================================
Any other business
* Next Meeting: October 7, 2021
