[Thomas Monjalon]

A new DPDK release candidate is ready for testing:
	https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk/tag/?id=v20.02-rc4
76 patches were integrated.
This is small enough to be confident about closing 20.02 soon.

The release notes so far:
	http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/rel_notes/release_20_02.html
Please add your tested platforms to the list:
	http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/rel_notes/release_20_02.html#tested-platforms
Some deprecation notices are pending for review.

This is the last release candidate for DPDK 20.02.
Please share some release validation results
by replying to this message (at dev@dpdk.org).
If no critical issue is reported, 20.02 will be closed on Tuesday 25th.

If you are preparing the next release cycle, please send your v1 patches
before the 20.05 proposal deadline, which will happen on March 18th.
It is also time to build an estimated roadmap for the next cycles.

Thank you everyone

The following covers the tests that we ran on Mellanox hardware for this version:

- Basic functionality:
  Send and receive multiple types of traffic.
- testpmd xstats counter test.
- testpmd timestamp test.
- Changing/checking link status through testpmd.
- RTE flow and flow_director tests.
  Items: eth / vlan / ipv4 / ipv6 / tcp / udp / icmp / gre / nvgre / vxlan / geneve / ip in ip / mplsoudp / mplsogre / gtp
  Actions: drop / queue / rss / mark / flag / jump / count / port_id / raw_encap / raw_decap / vxlan_encap / vxlan_decap / NAT
- Some RSS tests.
- VLAN stripping and insertion tests.
- Checksum and TSO tests.
- ptype tests.
- l3fwd-power example application tests.
- Multi-process example applications tests.

We don't see any critical issues blocking the release.

Thanks,
Ali

Some quick update from Intel on RC4 testing

Summary

1. Totally execution percentage is around 90%, pass rate is around 98%
2. Created 2 new medium/low issue in RC4.  

Details:
1. Intel NIC PMD PF & VF regression: 95% executed, 0 critical issue and high issue found. 
Function cases include rx/tx/forward packets, packet processing, jumboframe, dual vlan, filter cases and so on: 2 bugs found, no critical/high bugs. 
Performance cases such as l2fwd, l3fwd, single core and so on: no new bug is found.
2. Cryptodev cases include ipsec_gw cryptodev, fips cryptodev, l2fwd crypto, performance cases and so on: no critical and no high bugs found.
 Function cases all passed, performance cases not fully executed. 
3. Vhost/virtio: PVP/loopback, qemu/virtio-user, multi-queue, dequeue zero copy cases and so on: 1 new medium bug is found.
4. Power relate cases, no new bug is found.
5. ABI test includes unit test, vhost and flow related tests.  no new bug is  found.
6. 20.02 new features include ABI test, L2tpv3,  crypto_dev related new features and so no.  no new bug is found.

Hi,

Replying to this email thread as I'm not able to find original thread for 20.02 review and test.

Our findings while testing v20.02:
1. We did see issues against SLES15 SP1 and RHEL 7 RAW with CX4, after investigation, issues are fixed by installing Mellanox driver.

DPDK_SOURCE_URL=https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk/snapshot/dpdk-v20.02.tar.gz

Test case description:
* VERIFY-DPDK-COMPLIANCE - verifies kernel is supported and that the build is successful
* VERIFY-DPDK-BUILD-AND-TESTPMD-TEST - verifies using testpmd that packets can be sent from a VM to another VM
* VERIFY-SRIOV-FAILSAFE-FOR-DPDK - disables/enables Accelerated Networking for the NICs under test and makes sure DPDK works in both scenarios
* VERIFY-DPDK-FAILSAFE-DURING-TRAFFIC - disables/enables Accelerated Networking for the NICs while generating traffic using testpmd

* PERF-DPDK-FWD-PPS-DS15 - verifies DPDK forwarding performance using testpmd on 2, 4, 8 cores, rx and io mode on size Standard_DS15_v2
* PERF-DPDK-SINGLE-CORE-PPS-DS4 - verifies DPDK performance using testpmd on 1 core, rx and io mode on size Standard_DS4_v2
* PERF-DPDK-SINGLE-CORE-PPS-DS15 - verifies DPDK performance using testpmd on 1 core, rx and io mode on size Standard_DS15_v2
* PERF-DPDK-MULTICORE-PPS-DS15 - verifies DPDK performance using testpmd on 2, 4, 8 cores, rx and io mode on size Standard_DS15_v2
* PERF-DPDK-MULTICORE-PPS-F32 - verifies DPDK performance using testpmd on 2, 4, 8, 16 cores, rx and io mode on size Standard_F32s_v2

* DPDK-RING-LATENCY - verifies DPDK CPU latency using https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fshemminger%2Fdpdk-ring-ping.git&data=02%7C01%7CAbhishek.Marathe%40microsoft.com%7Caa457975b80d4b905a4708d748949f33%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637057675470614018&sdata=grffUwKPmgVqikIpQzx6%2Bd9D2rpuCDnqvH%2FVIe5iUa4%3D&reserved=0
* VERIFY-DPDK-PRIMARY-SECONDARY-PROCESSES - verifies primary / secondary processes support for DPDK. Runs only on RHEL and Ubuntu distros with Linux kernel >= 4.20

* VERIFY-DPDK-OVS - builds OVS with DPDK support and tests if the OVS DPDK ports can be created. Runs only on Ubuntu distro.
* VERIFY-DPDK-VPP - builds VPP with DPDK support and tests if the VPP ports are present. Runs only on RHEL and Ubuntu distros.
* VERIFY-DPDK-NFF-GO - builds NFF-GO with DPDK support and runs the functional tests from the NFF-GO repository. Runs only on Ubuntu distro.
