Next meeting April 15th 1600 UTC Attendees: Aaron, Alejandro, David, Fouad, Flavio, Ariel, Pieter, Mark, Ian, Scott, Kevin.
======= GENERAL ======= - UNH lab testing (Aaron) -- Integrating ovs_perf test scripts -- Testing dpdk-latest OVS branch and dpdk master + patches from dpdk-dev -- Would prefer a stable OVS base to avoid multiple moving targets -- Dashboard https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/ -- Results mailing list https://mails.dpdk.org/listinfo/test-report - DPDK stable releases - DPDK 18.11.1 (OVS 2.11, OVS Master) - Recently available, validated. - DPDK 17.11.5 (OVS 2.10, OVS 2.9) - Available but unit test failures flagged in DPDK validation. - 17.11.6 will be released soon, so might be better to wait and validate with it - DPDK 16.11.9 (OVS 2.7) - Final release for 16.11, 2 year support cycle ended. - Probably worth it? as it's the last one - DPDK 19.05 release - dpdk-latest branch patched to compile with DPDK master (Kudos Ophir) - dpdk-latest branch process - if this is to be used to detect regressions with DPDK patches in UNH, then it should not be updated much. However, then it loses some effectiveness that the latest OVS is functional with the latest dpdk. Maybe there is need for 2 branches with different purposes. Ian to send a mail to discuss. - Spring cleaning - Deprecated features - General question about deprecation and time frames. - vhostuser -- Not causing a maintenance burden as it's mostly shared code with vhostuserclient -- Aware of some cases where users want to upgrade from 2.6 -> newer release but don't want to switch to vhostuserclient at upgrade time as it's an additional risk. - Experimental Features - vhost zero copy - SMC - HWOL - Experimental Tag process? - Should there be a set path to removing experimental tag for each feature, even if that is different based on the type of feature. ==================== PERFORMANCE/FEATURES ==================== - Features Targeting OVS 2.12 - HWOL vport offloads - DPCLS function pointers + scalar optimizations - RFC4115 Egress policer -- the required DPDK bits are not available in DPDK 18.11 On 25/07/2017 14:25, Kevin Traynor wrote: > Hi All, > > The OVS-DPDK public meetings have moved to Wednesday's at the same time. > Everyone is welcome, it's a chance to share status/plans etc. > > It's scheduled for every 2 weeks starting 26th July.
