Thanks Christian for creating the new release candidate. 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: RHEL7.4 / Driver: MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.2-2.2.0.0 / Firmware: 14.29.2002 - NIC: ConnectX-5 / OS: RHEL7.4 / Driver: MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.2-2.2.0.0 / Firmware: 16.29.2002 Compilation tests with multiple configurations in the following OS/driver combinations are also passing: - Ubuntu 20.04.2 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.2-2.2.0.0. - Ubuntu 20.04.2 with rdma-core master (a1a9ffb). - 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 (a1a9ffb) (i386). - Ubuntu 16.04.7 with rdma-core v22.7. - Fedora 32 with rdma-core v33.0. - CentOS 7 7.9.2009 with rdma-core master (a1a9ffb). - CentOS 7 7.9.2009 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.2-2.2.0.0. - CentOS 8 8.3.2011 with rdma-core master (a1a9ffb). - OpenSUSE Leap 15.2 with rdma-core v27.1. We don't see any new issues in this release candidate. However, due to environment changes, we started seeing the following issue, which reproduces in older 19.11 releases as well: https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661 We will not fix this issue in this release.
