Hi Rami,
I'm the current maintainer of the DPDK Performance CI. I realize that the
performance results don't point to the website, so it's not obvious on
where to find this information. You can find an overview of these tests
here: https://lab.dpdk.org
Most of this information can be either found on the detailed results of a
test (such as https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/4157/) or on
the about page (https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/about/).
But to answer your questions:
At the moment, we only run performance tests. Specifically the
nic_single_core_perf_test from the DPDK Test Suite with the TRex traffic
generator.
The devices we are testing are currently the Intel 82599ES 10G, the Intel
XL710-QDA2 40G, the Mellanox ConnectX-5 100G, and the ConnectX-4 Lx 25G and
40G.
We don't apply the doc folder when applying the series, in case a patch
included code unrelated to documentation. If others in the group feel that
it's still unnecessary to include "doc" labeled series, I can look into
filtering them out.
Thanks.
