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 - Start to share our objectives for 2019 (in more detail) - Invite others to the Bi-weekly call
