General Announcements
======================================
* DPDK Summit is approaching on May 12-13.

CI Status
======================================

AWS Lab
-------------------------------------------------------------------
AWS looks to have submitted passing runs as of April 29, everything looks ok.

UNH-IOL Community Lab
-------------------------------------------------------------------
* Tracked down a bug that was causing AI review to run twice, and fixed that.
* Working on migration over to “new DTS” for the single core
performance test. The Intel 40G NIC is the first testbed with this
migration, which is why it had  weird “passing” results (+3000%) on
some runs.  The bulk of this work is around setting / maintaining the
values for the baseline, as they are in a different format from the
“old DTS.”
* Working on updates to Fedora (43 / 44) containers for unit testing,
but this does require running meson in a venv, to meet the DPDK
version requirements. Lab is running 42 and up.
* Updates to AI prompts, scripts, or Agents file?  No updates yet,
still waiting on this to get merged into the main line source.
* Running single core performance for ARM patch, will try to get this
run today in the lab.

Intel Lab
-------------------------------------------------------------------
* No updates, running.

Github Actions
-------------------------------------------------------------------
* No updates.

Loongson Lab
-------------------------------------------------------------------
* There is one test that is causing a timeout, but not reporting a
failure. Lincoln will reach out to the lab maintainers to ask if this
can be investigated.

DTS Improvements & Test Development
======================================
* UNH-IOL team is working on getting RFC or v1 patches submitted this
week. I think we have 1 more to go for “adding code coverage reporting
to DTS.”
* There are a number of patches that are ready for review by Patrick / Luca.
* Luca is likely going to be out for a bit on parental leave, which
may slow down reviews a bit.

Any other business
======================================
* Should we cancel the next CI meeting, which overlaps with the DPDK
event? Agreement was yes
* Next Meeting: May 28, 2026, 10am EDT
