Hello Kevin, apologies for the delay,
We ran the following functional tests with Nvidia hardware on
v24.11.3-rc1:
- 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
(https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/nics/mlx5.html#supported-hardware-offloads)
- 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.
- Hardware LRO tests.
- Buffer Split tests.
- Tx scheduling tests.
Functional tests ran on:
- NIC: ConnectX-6 Dx / OS: Ubuntu 22.04 / Driver:
MLNX_OFED_LINUX-24.10-3.2.5.0 / Firmware: 22.43.3608
- NIC: ConnectX-7 / OS: Ubuntu 22.04 / Driver:
MLNX_OFED_LINUX-24.10-3.2.5.0 / Firmware: 28.43.3608
- DPU: BlueField-2 / DOCA SW version: 2.9.3 / Firmware: 24.43.3608
Additionally, we ran build tests with multiple configurations on the
following OS/driver combinations (all passed):
- Debian 12 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-24.10-3.2.5.0.
- Ubuntu 22.04 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-24.10-3.2.5.0.
- Ubuntu 22.04 with rdma-core master (091ddb5).
- Ubuntu 24.04 with MLNX_OFED_LINUX-24.10-3.2.5.0.
- Ubuntu 24.04 with rdma-core v50.0.
- Fedora 42 with rdma-core v55.0.
- Fedora 43 (Rawhide) with rdma-core v58.0.
- OpenSUSE Leap 15.6 with rdma-core v49.1.
- Windows Server 2022 with Clang 18.1.8.
The following patch addresses an ASan issue in testpmd:
https://inbox.dpdk.org/dev/20250730113243.197386-1-mkash...@nvidia.com/
We are currently investigating additional functional test failures but
have not yet determined if these issues are new or present in previous
releases (and appeared due to environment changes). Will update as
soon as possible.
Can confirm that we didn't detect issues caused by changes in this
release. Apologies again for the delay.
Regards,
Ali
