Meeting summary

    1. Dave Wallace (dwallacelf, 14:03:36)
    2. Peter Mikus (pmikus, 14:05:26)
    3. Tibor Frank (tifrank, 14:06:44)

  1. Agenda bashing (mackonstan, 14:06:57)
  2. Physical labs, testbeds (mackonstan, 14:07:48)
    1. SSD fail - Peter - one SSD RMAed, failed SUT recovered running with one SSD. (mackonstan, 14:08:33)
    2. Peter - guesstimate is that 10-12 SSDs failed to date, out of skx and clx, it is suspicious. Will compile the list, we can then share it with LFN/Vexxhost for verification and spares mgmt, as well as punt it to vendor/Intel for RCAing. (mackonstan, 14:13:46)

  3. Inputs from projects - VPP (mackonstan, 14:14:05)
  4. Inputs from projects - VSAP (mackonstan, 14:14:35)
  5. Inputs from projects - TSC (mackonstan, 14:14:40)
  6. Inputs from projects - CNCF CNF Testbed (mackonstan, 14:15:00)
    1. Were mainly focusing on control/orchestration layer, not much on performance, still using VPP, Michael Pedersen will contact us once any assistance from FD.io required (mackonstan, 14:16:12)

  7. Releases - CSIT-2001 (mackonstan, 14:16:32)
    1. 2n-skx - Jan - 8/10 perf runs done, data available for graphs and compare tables. Full tests to be done. (mackonstan, 14:17:42)
    2. 3n-skx - Jan - 1/10 perf run done, next ones are running, delayed by testbed failures. (mackonstan, 14:18:19)
    3. Jan - hoststack tests completed on 3n-hsw. (mackonstan, 14:18:34)

  8. Releases - CSIT-1908 maintenance (mackonstan, 14:19:06)
    1. Jan - jobs ready, MRR weekly run successfully, only 9 tests failed, 6 l2patch, 3 xxx, need to investigate. (mackonstan, 14:20:28)
    2. Jan - preference to wait with 1908.2 rls testing until we are out of CSIT-2001 2n-skx, 3n-skx (mackonstan, 14:21:17)

  9. Releases - CSIT-2005 (mackonstan, 14:21:37)
    1. Peter - VPP native virtio tests are ready for review (mackonstan, 14:22:33)
    2. Vratko - fast scale tests using async PAPI, ready for review. e.g. ip4scale1m - VAT O(10sec), PAPI today O(30min), asyncPAPI O(~1min). (mackonstan, 14:24:39)

  10. Operations (mackonstan, 14:25:42)
    1. vpp-csit-device tests - re-enable voting - Vratko - need to upgrade the current process of handling APIs, blocker for voting (mackonstan, 14:26:50)

  11. VPP code performance (mackonstan, 14:27:53)
    1. vhost tests - Peter - latest dpdk changed api, got fixed on vpp side. (mackonstan, 14:29:27)
    2. avf interface init - Peter - two problems: i) csit infra issue CSIT-xxxx, ii) jira VPP-1858 (mackonstan, 14:30:39)
    3. srv6 tests failing - Peter - to be investigated (mackonstan, 14:31:11)
    4. srv6 regression - Vratko - vpp patch fixes this (mackonstan, 14:32:18)
    5. two new anomalies - Vratko - could be csit or csit+vpp (mackonstan, 14:32:38)
    6. 2n-clx cxx556a - Vratko - TRex was taking longer to send packets vs. config, aka tx-duration-stretching, fixed by reducing Tx rate and adding TRex cores. Previous trending numbers were incorrect. Effects MRR tests. (mackonstan, 14:34:34)

  12. Developments (mackonstan, 14:34:52)
    1. Jan - API functional test coverage - focusing on IPsec tests, then SRv6 (mackonstan, 14:37:54)
