=====================================================================
General Discussion
* 24.11 roadmap status:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1doTZOOpkv4D5P2w6K7fEJpa_CjzrlMl3mCeDBWtxnko/edit
* Make sure you run check-git-log before Applying series (Patrick did not
do this, and will force push this morning to correct)
* We should prioritize merging over developing at this time. So, Patrick
will tell Dean and Nick to stop their current development and work
exclusively on providing reviews.
* RC2 targeting Nov 6 now
Patch discussions
* Luca did send the RFC of Alex’s MTU_Update suite, which Nick has started
incorporating into the old jumboframes testsuite
   * He will stop working on this until the most important reviews are
finished
   * Thomas sent some old mailing list conversations about how to use MTU
to determine real packet size to accept (Ferruh had an idea about checking
device capabilities to determine this)

https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20241025103520.394951-1-paul.szczepanek@arm.com/
   * Patrick will review today

https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20241008191835.20210-2-dmarx@iol.unh.edu/
   * Includes filtering on VLAN tags, vlan insertion, vlan stripping
   * Makes use of VLAN_FILTER and VLAN_INSERT rx_offload capabilities in
the capability check
   * UNH guys will start running this in the lab on jenkins (this is still
not sending reports to the mailing list)
* Copying DPDK build to SUT
   * Patrick is reviewing
* Pydantic: Nick still reviewing this series
   * https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=32823
   * Pydantic models are not built well for the API Docs. Some pydantic
internals are being shown instead of the fields.
   * Removes warlock dependency from poetry
* Mypy is is now interpreting types for scapy, which may be due to a new
minor version of mypy
   * Version lock to the previous minor version for this release?
* Patrick will continue merging testsuites, including mac_filter,
dual_vlan, dynamic_config (needs to be rebased for new testpmd_shell
functions introduced in the capabilities series), blocklist and l2fwd if
submitted, etc.

=====================================================================
Bugzilla discussions
* We should add a bugzilla ticket for discussing fuzz testing in DTS
   * Patrick can add
* API docs do not include the testsuites, so this needs to be added
   * Patrick make a ticket for this

=====================================================================
Any other business
* Next meeting Nov 7, 2024
