General Announcements

CI Status

---------------------------------------------------------------------
UNH-IOL Community Lab

* Unplanned maintenance
   * There was a significant CVE on polkit last week that required downtime to implement a patch across all systems in the lab.
* FIPS
   * Changes to DPDK and DPDK-CI are waiting for review.
   * Internal scripts to deploy FIPS testing are completed.
   * Going to only run this test on crypto changes, based on where the patch “applies” within the directory tree.
* FreeBSD 13 compiled and ABI disabled
   * Looking into why FreeBSD 13 now fails to compile tarballs that compiled before.  Only change to the VM was rebooting during the maintenance process for recent CVE.
* VirtIO
   * Scripts for generating VM are complete, and need to be submitted as a patch for DTS.
   * Smoke tests and basic cases are ready to be turned on in CI, just need to get this enabled across the different bare-metal platforms.
   * Maxime Coquelin offered to help with any issues encountered in setting up the tests for virtIO.
* RTE Flow
   * Still working on the rollout of this testing.  This has driven a number of changes / patches needed into DTS, as things have changed since this was originally developed.
