Agenda

The next CSIT meeting is scheduled for Wednesday 18-May 15:00-16:00 Greenwich, London time / 07:00-08:00 PST. Proposed topics:

Agenda bashing.
- CSIT UTI (Universal Test Interface) demo, Tibor.
Inputs from projects
- FD.io: VPP, TSC, other.
- FD.io: **vppcfg** new project proposal - readout to CSIT postponed
New or being refactored tests
- E810 flow "offload" tests
  - device: updating tests with new dpdk offload flags, Fan.
  - perf: work in progress, Fan.
- Scale tests revisited
  - Currently amount of executed scale tests is reduced for ip4, ip6, nat, ipsec.
  - This is due to poor performance of PAPI and excessive time taken for configuring VPP.
  - Work to restart to review feasible option to have this fixed, Vratko, Ole, Andrew, Dave.
VPP and CSIT hot items
- Spectre-BHB security vulnerability
  - docs: Add references to Spectre-BHB security vulnerability
  - Waiting for updated spectre-meltdown script: https://github.com/speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker/pull/418
- AMD performance results review - FD.io CSIT labs vs. AMD CSIT labs, Keesang et al
Releases CSIT-2206
- 100 GbE tests with newly fitted and calibrated MLX ConnectX5-ex and TRex v2.96
  - with 16 pmd threads max aggregate 2x 100 GbE STL performance: 188Mpps TX rate and 133Mpps RX rate
  - big thanks to Peter for the work with Hanoh to get it sorted finally
- telemetry - vpp perfmon and linux bpf telemetry
- CSIT UTI
  - quick demo of the latest on http://csit.fd.io/trending/ - Tibor
Physical Infrastructure
- Performance testing: Xeon Skx/Ckx/Icx, Arm, Atom.
- Functional driver testing: Xeon Skx, Arm Tx2.
- Updated LFN FD.io infra support documentation.
- Lab new hardware builds:
  - Perf - 17 supermicro icx servers
    - 5 servers in production: 2n-icx, 3n-icx testbeds.
    - 2 servers used for TG/TRex machines for new testbed builds (2n-alt).
    - 2 servers available for new build
    - 8 servers are still to be delivered from SuperMicro, ETA end of April.
  - Perf - 2x Ampere Altra servers - onboarded
    - 3n-alt trending data.
- AMD requests to increase AMD participation level in CSIT benchmarking, Keesang et al.
- 2x Atom SnowRidge servers (4RU) shipped by Intel, in transit.
Virtual Infrastructure, CI/CD
- LFN FD.io CI/CD systems.
- Jenkins jobs: csit-vpp, vpp-csit, trending.
- vpp-csit jobs: vpp-csit-verify-device-{..}-tx2 (not voting), vpp-csit-verify-device-{..}-skx (voting)
Environment, Framework
- VPP API changes' tracking.
- VPP CLI usage in CSIT.
  - Functional checks, e.g. "show nat44 summary" to count established sessions.
    - VPP changed output in: 34877: nat: TCP state tracking based on RFC 7857/RFC 6146 | https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/34877
    - CSIT test were failing until fix: 35295: fix(nat): parse new show nat44 summary output | https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/csit/+/35295
Trending
- Hoststack tests: Requested tests to be added are the same as CSIT Report Hoststack Iterative Job Specs
- Daily perf tests: mrr-daily test selection, daily csit-report.
- Performance trending: Dashboard, Failures.
- Trendline graphs: L2, IP4, IP6, Vhost, L2 memif, Overlay, Crypto.
- New dynamic dashboard (CSIT UTI).
- Failures, anomalies, breakages
  - port 0 is down when running traffic profile.
  - all 1518B AVF crypto tests failed with no traffic.
  - AF-XDP - NDR tests failing from time to time.
  - VPP does not recognize X553/X557-AT2 10GE.
  - multicore AVF tests are failing when trying to create interface.
  - Not all DET44 sessions have been established: 4128767 != 4128768.
