General Announcements
* Patrick will share out the 2023 Community Lab retrospective today, along
with a last call on requests to be included in the work item voting sheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DL1t_h-JOz1tTcO7hc8EpJnUQsHyj8YxJqx=
-JxrvKz0/edit?usp=3Dsharing
* There is a joint tech board / gov board meeting next Wednesday on the
topic of extending the scope/stack of DPDK.

CI Status

---------------------------------------------------------------------
UNH-IOL Community Lab
* Arm64 unit testing was re-enabled after David=E2=80=99s patch cleaning up=
 ethdev
shared memory on port cleanup reached main and all next maintainers rebased
* Intel 8970 QAT Accelerator card: This is still blocked, but UNH will ping
Dharmik etc. on how to proceed
* TS-Factory:
   * We are pulling a fresh version of the ts-factory framework with
updates (from Andrew) to allow manual runs to produce all salient
artifacts, then sending them to be published on Oktet Lab=E2=80=99s instanc=
e
   * After, we=E2=80=99ll begin on setting up the Jenkins automation and ho=
sting
our own Bublik instance for publishing results
   * As a reminder our test matrix for ts-factory will be as follows:
      * X86_64: Intel XL710, ConnectX-cx5
      * Arm64: Intel XL710, ConnectX-cx5
* Apply patchset script:
   * Need to pick this back up, but the draft version =E2=80=9Cworks=E2=80=
=9D and all that
is remaining is implementing the depends-on support, and performing some
testing on it before bringing it to production.
* Marvell Octeon board: They have granted me access to the CN106XX board
documentation, and I have some (very basic) info from them about how they
utilize DTS, although I hope to get more info. However, I=E2=80=99m putting
together a parts purchase list now (for all components to facilitate the
bare board) as I am now satisfied that using the hardware in the lab will
be feasible.

Intel Lab
* None

Loongarch Lab

Github Actions
* Should be going live within a week for the email based retesting
framework. Aaron needs to sync with Michael on this.

DTS Improvements & Test Development
* Scatter: Jeremy=E2=80=99s rewrite of the testsuite in the new DTS framewo=
rk is
working.
   * The one interesting thing is that as it is written in old dts,
topology=3Dloop is being used as a testpmd arg, basically just meaning that
the ingress port on the DUT becomes also the egress port. This does not
align with the given addresses assignment function implemented in the
TestSuite function, so he overrode this behavior accordingly. It=E2=80=99s =
a bit
ugly to do this, so probably what is best to do is to have testpmd forward
from port 0 to 1, or 1 to 0, with topology=3Dpaired. The only important thi=
ng
to do with this test is to set the rx ring mbuf size < frame size, and then
interrogate the packets the tester receives back (showing that you are
receiving scattered segments). Testpmd forwarding approach is unrelated to
validating scatter functionality.
   * However, it does highlight that I should sync with Jeremy (and
hopefully the entire DTS WG, to see how to best support different
topologies in DTS, and how to support full-duplex traffic.
* To that end, I would like to revive the DTS WG meetings (seperate from CI
meetings) because A. Jeremy can=E2=80=99t make the CI meetings, and B. we w=
ill
possibly be adding an additional DTS developer to the community lab
   * What time could this work at? 10 AM Wed?
