15:14:13 <vrpolak> #topic operations
15:15:07 <vrpolak> #info There was a breakage after Python3 migration, due to "ply" package not available on virtualenv (even when installed on system). Fixed quicly, but root cause still under investigation.
15:15:55 <vrpolak> #topic Inputs from projects
15:16:08 <vrpolak> #info No news from VPP, TSC.
15:21:50 <vrpolak> #topic Developments
15:22:50 <vrpolak> #info Testbeds: Will need a way to limit jobs with Mellanox tests to run on testbeds that have them (one testbed does not yet). We will work on it after other Mellanox related changes are merged.
15:25:00 <vrpolak> #info Performance trending and analytics: New graph organization is merged, results will be visible soon.
15:29:59 <vrpolak> #info API functional test coverage: Next patches submitted, still under review.
15:35:07 <vrpolak> #info Question about bidirectional traffic. Answer: use the same type as in the preformance test. If functional test fail, we can identify a Bug and fix it.
15:39:57 <vrpolak> #info Gcov coverage: More a metric for VPP, but if they want we can create a weekly job for that.
15:43:08 <vrpolak> #info Improvements to test teardown: Use gdb "script" to process and print information useful to developers.
15:49:02 <vrpolak> #topic TRex
15:50:36 <vrpolak> #info Vratko thinks there is a bug in TRex that occasionally increases the time Trex takes to send all the packets, effectively leading to MRR resylts bigger than the real performance. But Vratko also has trouble to gather enough data to compare two TRex versions, so the question is still open.
15:56:21 <vrpolak> #info Question about triggering a specific performance test. The full answer will be on csit-dev mailing list.
