##################################################################### Minutes ===================================================================== General Discussion * DTS Roadmap: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Rcp1-gZWzGGCCSkbEsigrd0-NoQmknv6ZS7V2CPdgFo/edit * Will email out after this meeting * Speakers are all signed up for the CI and DTS talks at DPDK Summit ===================================================================== Patch discussions * Testpmd shell method names: should they align with existing testpmd runtime commands? I.e. should the “flow create” runtime command be implemented via a method named flow_create_*() or the more english intuitive create_flow_*() * One option is to implement both, and have one method call the other * This potentially creates confusion as people read different testsuites and see different functions used, not realizing they may be the same * The group agrees it is best to name methods in a human readable intuitive way… so like create_flow_*() from the example above. * Testpmd verbose parser * If we read port from testpmd to identify packets, they must have a tcp/udp layer, which may be limiting. If, for whatever reason, packets for a testsuite cannot be built with a l4, individual testsuites may have to check based on src mac address, checksum etc. * In almost all cases, packets can be build with a l4 * Checksum offload suite is submitted * Dependency on the existing testpmd verbose parser * RX side testcases work fine, but TX side behavior is not aligning with what is described in the testsuite, so feedback on this is appreciated * Checksum offload command * Csum set {layer name} hw {port number} * Returns sctp offload is not supported * TCP/UDP packets are working * Port assignment: * Physical ports are defined in the nodes conf section, then port ids are referred to in the testrun config * Also includes splitting the nodes and testrun configs into different files * Discussion on ticket regarding having a conf directory to contain these * Still some work to be done removing unneeded configuration from conf.yaml * VXLAN-GPE testsuite is now canceled as the feature is removed as of DPDK 24.07 * API Docs * Juraj needs reviews and testing * UNH people please rebuild the docs and provide your experience * Should specifically test meson install * Aim is to make it simple to use (and it is) * It builds with DPDK docs * L2fwd * Jeremy provided a review, more people at UNH please run this and provide feedback * When reviewing people should also review the dependency - add pktgen and testpmd change series * Tomas and Juraj have begun work on producing the testrun results json ===================================================================== Bugzilla discussions * None ===================================================================== Any other business * Next meeting Aug 29, 2024
