  * Kai - sent email yesterday to vpp-dev with question for Damjan,

    (mackonstan, 14:15:17)

  * Kai - 2 systems to be shipped to Fd.io labs, John DiGiglio scheduled
    for 24-25-Oct. It should be a replacement, not a new ship, to avoid
    unnecessary custom costs.  (mackonstan, 14:19:40)

* HW accelerator - SPR DSA  (mackonstan, 14:21:59)
  * Maciek - latest update from Intel/Georgii - received a copy of BIOS

    Georgii clarifying with SuperMicro when/where a public released
    version of BIOS supporting SPR DSA accelerators will be released (or
    can be found - SuperMicro webpages search does not yield any finds).
    (mackonstan, 14:24:17)

* HW accelerator - E810 GTPU offload  (mackonstan, 14:24:31)

    (mackonstan, 14:36:03)
  * Kai - will review and analyse the results with the Intel team, and
    confirm if they are matching expectations  (mackonstan, 14:37:00)
  * Maciek - for now we will keep this item as an open issue, until Kai
    confirms gtpu-hw results are as expected  (mackonstan, 14:37:40)

  * looking at rls2310 rc2 results spreadsheet produced by Tibor
    (mackonstan, 14:41:55)
  * Maciek - many af_xdp tests are failing with two errors: Minimal rate
    loss ratio X does not reach target 0.0, T-Rex STL runtime error.
    (mackonstan, 14:42:38)
  * Vratko - tracking those, add to rls notes, older jira ticket already
    there but it was rare, now no longer rare, ticket should be updated.
    (mackonstan, 14:43:15)
  * Vratko - 3n-alt tests - tests failing all or high frequency with VPP
    crashing (no core files): SPD_FLOW_CACHE, ipsec tun, gtpu.
    (mackonstan, 14:45:06)
  * Vratko - 3n-icx - frequently failing: reassembly (fragmentation
    issue with vpp fix not merged), wireguard (expected) - both are
    known issues with tickets.  (mackonstan, 14:47:24)
  * Vratko - 3n-snr - async ipsec tests failing (expected due to broken
    qat ipsec hw)  (mackonstan, 14:49:48)
  * Vratko - 3na-spr - wireguard (known)  (mackonstan, 14:50:52)
  * Vratko - 3nb-spr - async (known, HW QAT issue)  (mackonstan,
    14:51:13)
  * Dave Vratko - hoststack - 3na-spr - TCP tests failing (VPP not
    starting but only for TCP test - other tests work fine)
    (mackonstan, 14:54:48)
  * Dave Vratko - hoststack - 3nb-spr - interfaces not coming up
    (mackonstan, 14:55:28)

* Physical Infra  (mackonstan, 14:56:53)
  * Maciek - Arm proposing Nvidia Grace-Grace systems, Intel EMR

    14:59:15)

* Trending and Test Failures  (mackonstan, 14:59:50)
  * Vratko - trending failures are matching what's reported in 23.10
    testing  (mackonstan, 15:00:10)
