Minutes

=====================================================================
General Announcements
* DPDK Userspace: Sept 12-13 in Dublin Ireland - Gibson Hotel
* Email based retesting framework
   * Ali will upgrade to Patchwork 3.1 following the 23.07 release, which
includes two new category options on the /events API, cover-comment-created
and patch-comment-created. Comment content can be extracted after fetching
the event, and then processed.
      * Should labs fetch events when a category is cover-comment-created
or patch-comment-created, or both?
   * Fine to retest the existing dpdk tarball “as-is” as opposed to
re-applying on the latest git tree and making a new dpdk tarball
      * In situations where the tree is in a bad state, being able to
re-apply on latest tree is a big improvement
      * Can make applying to latest dpdk and retesting part of a v2 of
retesting framework
* There should be a way of monitoring the test results posted to patchwork
so that if there are tests missing, an alert can be sent to the lab (and
possibly others)
   * This can catch email based issues and also reporting bugs from labs
   * Query patchwork for patches older than 24 hours and check for all
expected test results missing
* Ali is going to create a ci mailing list project on Patchwork

=====================================================================
CI Status

---------------------------------------------------------------------
UNH-IOL Community Lab
* Added automatic json web token refresh functionality to our fips
acvp_tool.py. When the NIST API is serving requests unusually slowly
(because of load, or whatever reason) it is possible for your existing jwt
to expire during a single test run. By renewing the jwt as needed, this
issue is resolved
   * This is in production at UNH and a patch to update the upstream is
submitted to the ci mailing list
* The first set of NIC shipments have arrived, which are the Intel E810s.
We plan to begin reporting results from these NICs after the 23.07 release.
* We have been laying the groundwork for the retesting framework by:
   * Creating test groups and a jenkins script which can trigger retests of
specific tests based on patchwork contexts/labels
   * Adding a reporting stage to every individual test, instead of relying
on “earlier in the ci process” monolithic report stages which wait on
completion of all individual tests before sending a single report
   * Setting up script to parse comments and trigger subsets of a ci run
accordingly
* Requesting reviews on the UNH’s templated container image build system

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Intel Lab
* None

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Loongarch Lab
* None

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Github Actions
* No major news, but working with a new intern on setting up new internal
processes (like retesting)

=====================================================================
DTS Improvements & Test Development
* Jeremy has provided acks/reviews for patches on the 23.07 roadmap
* Jeremy submitted a v1 of his smoke test patch series - this is now
“complete”
* How to deal with overlap on patches between smoke tests and tg
abstraction. Use depends-on or include the same overlapping code between
both patches - went with the 2nd option.
   * Some more work and a new version of tg abstraction will be getting
submitted soon

=====================================================================
Any other business
* Next meeting is Jul 6, 2023
