Minutes
-------
* Agreed on Clang as the compiler for Windows support
* V1 deadline was met for Hello world, compiler selection & EAL patches
* V6 currently available. V7 on its way later today
* Agreed objectives for window patches
- Don’t break Linux/FreeBSD builds
- Compiles for windows
- Use agreed patch structure
- Some CI required for upstreaming patches (just compile for now)
- We will need to identify a test suite
- We will need to later add unit tests
* Explained why we need .def files - will look to generate them
* Strategy for 19.05 upstream
- All code should be in branch in draft repo
- Update frequently (allows others to also contribute)
- Need to rename branch to LATEST (19.05 or similar)
- Master repo needs regular merges (confirms nothing broken)
- Merge full patch sets
- Check licenses then merge
* Discussion on whether we can involve libbsd folks
- Could help with implementation on Windows
- Need separate repo for window dependencies (gitlab?)
- Meson might be able to handle this with some scripting
* Include headers need comment at the top describing file
- will update in V7 patch
* Documentation has been tested by Mellanox
- One issue found with Linux that is getting resolved in V7
* Whoever wants to be the maintainer needs to be able to perform all
the work (regular communications, merges, reviews etc.)
* Look to re-work meson changes that modify existing build instructions
- We want to avoid breaking the Linux list of C files
- Please add new lines where applicable
- Don’t change current lines
- Helps maintain history and understanding
* Will need to look at EAL tidy up in 19.08
- Move OS-specific implementations out of common
- Lower priority compared to getting traffic running
- Getting common files compiling
* Need to work on roadmap of features
- Identify owners for features
- PCI – currently support 40G Intel NIC (code in draft repo)
- UIO driver (netuio) module has been written
- Mellanox not using this, they are using devx
* Agreed to set up bi-weekly call for Windows support/status check
- Notes from this first call to go out on public mailing list
