  2. Agenda bashing (mackonstan, 15:03:11)
    1. Dave Wallace (dwallacelf, 15:03:19)
    2. Tibor and Peter will demo CSIT Dashboard - telemetry UI that is in the works (mackonstan, 15:04:13)

  3. Inputs from projects - VPP (mackonstan, 15:04:56)
    1. Dave: fixing the QUIC bug in VPP as part of cleanup of VPP QUIC stack and related CSIT tests (mackonstan, 15:05:56)
    2. Kai: offering help with QUIC libraries as did the integration of DPDK (mackonstan, 15:06:54)
    3. Dave: from vpp call yday, the memif-dsa acceleration code will not be merged for now as there is no way to test it as it requires SPR hardware that is not available (mackonstan, 15:07:49)
    4. Dave: need to budget for device testing with SPR platform (mackonstan, 15:08:05)

  4. Inputs from projects - TSC (mackonstan, 15:08:54)
    1. Dave: mostly discussing servers (done), for 2023 there will be a wiki page tracking fd.io webinar schedule (will send email once the page is up) (mackonstan, 15:09:51)
    2. Dave: put together year end report for FD.io, will be published shortly (mackonstan, 15:11:21)
    3. Dave: back to vpp - looks like vsap will be committing more code to vpp repo (dsa acceleration of vpp hoststack) and mirror csit tests (mackonstan, 15:13:25)

  5. E810 flow "offload" tests (mackonstan, 15:13:44)
    1. Maciek, Kai: following up on email thread about the discrepancy in perf results for gtpusw and gtpuhw between CSIT labs setup and intel setup. CSIT will add 100ge CVL tests to job specs for comparison (today on 25ge cvl tests are running). (mackonstan, 15:17:04)
    2. Juraj Linkeš (jlinkes, 15:17:34)

  6. Scale tests API optimization (mackonstan, 15:18:47)
    1. Vratko: latest scale-up PAPI relies on sending multiple requests and not wait for replies, processing the responses asynchronously. takes O(min), longest time 30min. (mackonstan, 15:22:26)
    2. viliamluc (viliamluc, 15:25:49)
    3. Dave: understanding is that VAT is deprecated in VPP, but the code is not removed, but then it is not maintained. what about VAT2? (mackonstan, 15:27:17)
    4. Vratko: observed 4x to 6x programming time reduction with async PAPI vs sync PAPI (mackonstan, 15:31:48)

  7. CSIT Dashboard - Telemetry UI demo (WIP) (mackonstan, 15:40:08)
    1. Tibor: doing the demo walk through adding telemetry trending panels to complement throughput panels for selected tests, and selecting the metrics of interest using structured hierarchical search (mackonstan, 15:42:00)
    2. Refer to Zoom recording (mackonstan, 15:46:32)

  8. Physical Infrastructure (mackonstan, 15:46:56)
    1. Peter: new 100ge qsfp28 arrived, installed, and so far no issues with link flapping - 4 days testing so far clean - another few cycles, and we can hopefully close it (mackonstan, 15:53:53)
    2. Peter: would like to proceed with 2n-dnv and 3n-dnv decommissioning; Dave and Maciek to bring it up in TSC meeting tomorrow and drive it to closure (mackonstan, 15:55:03)
