Coverity Testing 2. CI Status 3. Test Development 4. Any other business ############################################################################### Minutes =============================================================================== Coverity Testing * The requested tool “Coverity Desktop” is not available as part of the “Coverity Scan” that is available to open source projects. This is available as part of their pair product offerings. * The “Coverity Desktop” would support a per-patch scanning, to try to catch issues before they are merged. * Lincoln will look into the costs required and discuss with Thomas Monjalon about getting this recommended to the Tech Board. =============================================================================== CI Status ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intel Lab * Working on infrastructure upgrades that are causing some downtime. They are working on getting this stable again. * Is Intel running ABI? Running as a daily regression test. They are aware of the libattomic needs for ABI. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Github Actions / OBS * Michael submitted a rework of the OBS patches, and Aaron is reviewing them, they hope to turn it on after they finish going back and forth on any code or design changes needed. * Aaron will look into moving Github Actions to run testing per patch over the next couple of days. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UNH-IOL Community Lab * FreeBSD 13 unit testing, waiting on updates from the community to fix issues with FreeBSD. There may be some changes needed for what tests can be run on FreeBSD. * Rolled out the percentage changes required within the dashboard * Bare metal test machines (DTS runners) are now running the same commit version, this version includes the change to the percentage reporting. Moving forward, all bare metal systems will run the same versions of DTS (i.e. upgrades will roll out across all hardware). * Broadcom 25G (performance & functional) failures investigated and put back into production, with the new DTS. * Intel changes (DTS upgrades) were done successfully, put back into production. * Mellanox & ARM systems are still offline, as the updates are being applied for the DTS upgrades. Ali will look into this over the next couple of days to get the right driver versions installed. * Installed libatomic on all container images, VMs, and bare metal systems * Reran the patchset to get all passing ABI tests * FreeBSD 13.0 ABI testing is failing because of disabled driver in that OS, will disable the ABI jobs for now on this OS. David is looking into this with the Marvell team. * Need to investigate failures of a couple of DTS cases on the systems, will report back to the CI list on their status. =============================================================================== Test Development * func_reentrancy_autotest, et. al. Looks like the failing unit tests are all isolated to ARM systems, and the tests which fail appear to be random. We should have someone from ARM investigate the systems. In the meantime, Aaron is converting some of these tests to use the parent/sub testsuite framework that Ciara Power submitted. UNH team will reach out to the ARM teams. * DTS Improvement * Discussions are progressing.
