- All test passed.
- Two known issue, one ishttps://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=928 still
exist;
other is about dpdk-next-virtio/dpdk-next-net-brcm I40E/ICE_16BYTE_RX_DESC
meson build failure with gcc10.3 on ubuntu20.04,due to miss patch:
http://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20220208154219.266278-1-yidingx.z...@intel.com/,
