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-5.3-1.0.0.1 / Firmware: 14.30.1004 - NIC: ConnectX-5 / OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / Driver: MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.3-1.0.0.1 / Firmware: 16.30.1004 We discovered 2 new issues due to environment changes: - can't create some rules with count action, fixed by https://inbox.dpdk.org/stable/20210621145105.963179-1-lmarga...@nvidia.com/T/#u. - rte_flow hit counter doesn't increment, still discussing this internally. Compilation tests with multiple configurations in the following OS/driver combinations are also passing: - Ubuntu 20.04.2 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.3-1.0.0.1. - Ubuntu 20.04.2 with rdma-core master (a66e2a5). - 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 (a66e2a5) (i386). - Ubuntu 16.04.7 with rdma-core v22.7. - Fedora 34 with rdma-core v35.0 (only with gcc). - Fedora 35 (Rawhide) with rdma-core v35.0 (only with gcc). - CentOS 7 7.9.2009 with rdma-core master (a66e2a5). - CentOS 7 7.9.2009 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.3-1.0.0.1. - CentOS 8 8.3.2011 with rdma-core master (7f2d460). - OpenSUSE Leap 15.3 with rdma-core v31.0. Note that clang builds are failing in Fedora 34 and 35 due to the following issues: - https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745 - https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733 We don't see any other critical issues blocking this release. Thanks, Ali
