Hi,

The test iol-intel-Performance is failing on all patches
for a couple of days.
It seems to be due to a perf drop with a 10G device

Can we disable this test until we understand what happens?

We need also to understand how to avoid such failure,
and how to monitor and disable it faster.

Thanks

Hi Thomas,

I've disabled it for now until someone from the Intel team can look
into it (cc'd).

I've also seem problems where the results are completely off
(-15mpps), and I've been rerunning those when they happen. I'm hoping
those can be resolved too.

In the "off cases," is that specific to that hardware, or does it happen on
all hardware variants from time-to-time?

Hi, Jeremy and Lincoln,

Did you change anything on the Intel testbed? DTS code or testbed environment?
And could you send me the detailed test logs? We will do a quick check.

Thanks

It's possible this is happening more frequently because of enabling
overlayfs.
We also changed how the baseline is retrieved because of the overlayfs
system, but this issue was happening before this change.
I think this started happening after a few months after upgrading to Ubuntu
18.04.

Here are the recent results (login to view and download the artifacts):
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9344/#env-19
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9343/#env-19
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9340/#env-19

Here are some results that were "off" (see the "Run 1" tab):
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9346/#env-19
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9331/#env-19
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9321/#env-19

And here are some older tests where this occurred:
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/8813/#env-19
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/8795/#env-19

I also found some tests where it happened on the 40g platform:
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9188/#env-18
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/8870/#env-18
(older, before enabling overlayfs):

Thanks Jeremy.

I quickly checked per-patches results and logs for the failures. That seems not always failed case.. like fluctuation.

For this case, could you help to check
- if BIOS’s turbo boost is off, C0/C1 is off, C6 is off
- if cores’ are isolated in kernel’s parameter
- if other tasks are scheduled on the testbed when running performance test

If all settings are good, we may consider it’s a regression or unstable performance issue. We will double check the performance by IXIA with latest DPDK master when we back to office (1 week later).

Thanks. Any problem, please let me know.

Hi Thomas,

I've disabled it for now until someone from the Intel team can look
into it (cc'd).

I've also seem problems where the results are completely off
(-15mpps), and I've been rerunning those when they happen. I'm hoping
those can be resolved too.

Yes, those results are related to the Intel machine; I have disabled

The 82599ES machine is now available for ssh and modifications.

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi David,

This was just a weird issue with the packet generator not cleaning itself
after a test fast enough before another test.
I'll rerun the tests that were affected and keep an eye out to see if it's
stable enough to be put back online.

Hi Zhaoyan,

How is the current status of the Intel 82599ES?
Were there any configuration changes made to fix performance issues?

Thanks

Hi, Brandon,

Yes, it’s a wired issue. And it also mixed our DTS upgrading and Trex upgrading.
So we are reviewing our DTS script, different Trex version, and CI calling procedure.

Anyway, we are focusing on this task recently, any update will let you know.

Thanks.

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Have you finished making changes on the Intel machine?
I will turn on the machine on March 3rd for testing if you do not have any
issues with it.
Please let me know if you need anything else.

Brandon, we almost made a workaround.

Maybe tomorrow, you could recover Intel’s testbed. I will let you know soon.

Brandon,

We worked out a workaround on Intel testbeds. NNT(10G) and FVL(40G). Could you please help to recover them?

But, for FVL(40G) testbed,  we met some problems, could you please help to check before recover it

  *   Sometime 1G hugepage will be changed to 2Mhugepage automatically...we have to restart the system
  *   When we debugging on the testbed, found that Trex was killed by some one(app)..
Please help to check if any other program running on the testbed.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production
dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are
using for the testing located in */opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, o*r are
you still using the one in the standard */opt/test-harness/dts* folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Hi, Brandon,

For 10G, please enable it. our code is at original path /opt/test-harness/dts.

For 40G, please keep running. and see if any issue. But, anyway, we have modified the DTS code at /opt/test-harness/dts-new-suite. If we met same problem, then use this new DTS instead.

Thanks a lot

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Hi Zhaoyan,

Have you finished making changes on the Intel machine?
I will turn on the machine on March 3rd for testing if you do not have any issues with it.
Please let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Zhaoyan,

I have enabled the 10G Intel machine for testing.
If you would like to make any more changes, please let me know so I can
perform the necessary steps to prepare the machine for changes.
Please feel free to let me know if you need anything.

Thank you

Thanks. Brandon.

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.


Thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

I have enabled the 10G Intel machine for testing.
If you would like to make any more changes, please let me know so I can perform the necessary steps to prepare the machine for changes.
Please feel free to let me know if you need anything.

Thank you

For 10G, please enable it. our code is at original path /opt/test-harness/dts.

For 40G, please keep running. and see if any issue. But, anyway, we have modified the DTS code at /opt/test-harness/dts-new-suite. If we met same problem, then use this new DTS instead.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

But, for FVL(40G) testbed,  we met some problems, could you please help to check before recover it

  *   Sometime 1G hugepage will be changed to 2Mhugepage automatically...we have to restart the system
  *   When we debugging on the testbed, found that Trex was killed by some one(app)..
Please help to check if any other program running on the testbed.

Yes, it’s a wired issue. And it also mixed our DTS upgrading and Trex upgrading.
So we are reviewing our DTS script, different Trex version, and CI calling procedure.

This was just a weird issue with the packet generator not cleaning itself after a test fast enough before another test.
I'll rerun the tests that were affected and keep an eye out to see if it's stable enough to be put back online.

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while
testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent
changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make
these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel
10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

Thanks. Brandon.

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.


Thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

I have enabled the 10G Intel machine for testing.
If you would like to make any more changes, please let me know so I can perform the necessary steps to prepare the machine for changes.
Please feel free to let me know if you need anything.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Brandon,

We worked out a workaround on Intel testbeds. NNT(10G) and FVL(40G). Could you please help to recover them?

But, for FVL(40G) testbed,  we met some problems, could you please help to check before recover it

  *   Sometime 1G hugepage will be changed to 2Mhugepage automatically...we have to restart the system
  *   When we debugging on the testbed, found that Trex was killed by some one(app)..
Please help to check if any other program running on the testbed.

I'll rerun the tests that were affected and keep an eye out to see if it's stable enough to be put back online.

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command
"reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will
save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the
machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead
of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and
update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562

64

2048

41.439


FVL:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

59.608

64

2048

47.73


For the testbed in UNH, it’s a 2.1Ghz CPU server, so the expected number should be
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

64

2048

41.439 / 2.5 * 2.1=34.809


FVL:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

59.608 / 2.5 * 2.1=50.071

64

2048

47.73 / 2.5 * 2.1=40.093

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

We worked out a workaround on Intel testbeds. NNT(10G) and FVL(40G). Could you please help to recover them?

But, for FVL(40G) testbed,  we met some problems, could you please help to check before recover it

  *   Sometime 1G hugepage will be changed to 2Mhugepage automatically...we have to restart the system
  *   When we debugging on the testbed, found that Trex was killed by some one(app)..
Please help to check if any other program running on the testbed.

Yes, it’s a wired issue. And it also mixed our DTS upgrading and Trex upgrading.
So we are reviewing our DTS script, different Trex version, and CI calling procedure.

Anyway, we are focusing on this task recently, any update will let you know.

This was just a weird issue with the packet generator not cleaning itself after a test fast enough before another test.
I'll rerun the tests that were affected and keep an eye out to see if it's stable enough to be put back online.

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Lihong,

I have changed the baselines to reflect the new expected values.
The performance tests should work as expected and pass.

We will email again in the future if we come across any problems.
Feel free to email us as well if you would like to make any other changes.

Thank you for all your help

Hi Lihong,

I have changed the baselines to reflect the new expected values.
The performance tests should work as expected and pass.

We will email again in the future if we come across any problems.
Feel free to email us as well if you would like to make any other changes.

Thank you for all your help

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562

64

2048

41.439


FVL:

expected_value

64

512

59.608

64

2048

47.73


For the testbed in UNH, it’s a 2.1Ghz CPU server, so the expected number should be
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

64

2048

41.439 / 2.5 * 2.1=34.809


FVL:

512

59.608 / 2.5 * 2.1=50.071

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi, Brandon

I find  the grub configuration of isolation cpu miss the logic cores which at some thread.

For example:
If the server cpus layout as below, and want to config the isolation cpu from 1-20
The config of isolation should is ‘isolcpus=1-20,49-68’

[cid:image003.jpg@01D6134C.D6DDF140]

So, I want to change the grub configuration of the isolation cpus.
From ‘isolcpus=1-48’ change to ‘isolcpus=1-21,49-68,24-37,72-85’

Can you help me check which time is suite to do this change ?

Hi Lihong,

I have changed the baselines to reflect the new expected values.
The performance tests should work as expected and pass.

We will email again in the future if we come across any problems.
Feel free to email us as well if you would like to make any other changes.

Thank you for all your help

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

52.562

For the testbed in UNH, it’s a 2.1Ghz CPU server, so the expected number should be
NNT:

512

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline..

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Hi Lihong,

I think any time is fine to make these changes.

Please use the 'reboot_to_rw' command once you have logged on, this will
make sure your changes are saved.
It will also disable testing momentarily while you make your changes.

Once you're finished, you can reboot it with 'reboot_to_ro'.
Please let me know when you're done so I can make sure everything is
working as intended.
We could also do this change for you if needed.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi, Brandon

I use the cmd ‘reboot_to_rw’ to restart server, and edit the file ‘/etc/default/grub’ to reset the isolation cpus,

Changes the field ‘isolcpus=1-48  nohz_full=1-48  rcu_nocbs=1-48’ to
‘isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85’

Detail as below:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash hugepagesz=1G hugepages=40 default_hugepagesz=1G isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_iommu=on iommu=pt nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_pstate=disable nmi_watchdog=0 audit=0 nosoftlockup processor.max_cstate=1 intel_idle.max_cstate=1 hpet=disable mce=off tsc=reliable numa_balancing=disable"

Then use cmd: update-grub to make the configuration effective.
Then reboot server use ‘reboot_to_ro’, but I can’t find the change in cmdline ( cat /proc/cmdline).

Can you help me to check it?

Thanks
Lihong

Hi Lihong,

I think any time is fine to make these changes.

Please use the 'reboot_to_rw' command once you have logged on, this will make sure your changes are saved.
It will also disable testing momentarily while you make your changes.

Once you're finished, you can reboot it with 'reboot_to_ro'.
Please let me know when you're done so I can make sure everything is working as intended.
We could also do this change for you if needed.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi, Brandon

I find  the grub configuration of isolation cpu miss the logic cores which at some thread.

For example:
If the server cpus layout as below, and want to config the isolation cpu from 1-20
The config of isolation should is ‘isolcpus=1-20,49-68’

[cid:1717f4fa8006917eb1]

So, I want to change the grub configuration of the isolation cpus.
From ‘isolcpus=1-48’ change to ‘isolcpus=1-21,49-68,24-37,72-85’

Can you help me check which time is suite to do this change ?

Hi Lihong,

I have changed the baselines to reflect the new expected values.
The performance tests should work as expected and pass.

We will email again in the future if we come across any problems.
Feel free to email us as well if you would like to make any other changes.

Thank you for all your help

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562

64

2048

41.439


FVL:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

59.608

64

2048

47.73


For the testbed in UNH, it’s a 2.1Ghz CPU server, so the expected number should be
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

64

2048

41.439 / 2.5 * 2.1=34.809


FVL:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

59.608 / 2.5 * 2.1=50.071

64

2048

47.73 / 2.5 * 2.1=40.093

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

Thanks. Brandon.

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

This was just a weird issue with the packet generator not cleaning itself after a test fast enough before another test.
I'll rerun the tests that were affected and keep an eye out to see if it's stable enough to be put back online.

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Lihong,

I saw your changes and applied them manually.
This involves me taking the machine down for maintenance on our backend,
and then doing a normal `reboot`.

Now when I do `cat /proc/cmdline` it shows:
`BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-55-generic
root=UUID=3801030b-237d-428e-9e67-d81e12f16308 ro quiet splash
hugepagesz=1G hugepages=40 default_hugepagesz=1G
isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_iommu=on iommu=pt
nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85
intel_pstate=disable nmi_watchdog=0 audit=0 nosoftlockup
processor.max_cstate=1 intel_idle.max_cstate=1 hpet=disable mce=off
tsc=reliable numa_balancing=disable vt.handoff=1`

Which is what I think we wanted to achieve.
I have now done the `reboot_to_ro` command and it should be working fine
for testing.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi, Brandon

Very thanks for your help, now the NNT server have changed as we wanted, and can you help me also change the cmdline on FVL server.

Thanks

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Lihong,

I saw your changes and applied them manually.
This involves me taking the machine down for maintenance on our backend, and then doing a normal `reboot`.

Now when I do `cat /proc/cmdline` it shows:
`BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-55-generic root=UUID=3801030b-237d-428e-9e67-d81e12f16308 ro quiet splash hugepagesz=1G hugepages=40 default_hugepagesz=1G isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_iommu=on iommu=pt nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_pstate=disable nmi_watchdog=0 audit=0 nosoftlockup processor.max_cstate=1 intel_idle.max_cstate=1 hpet=disable mce=off tsc=reliable numa_balancing=disable vt.handoff=1`

Which is what I think we wanted to achieve.
I have now done the `reboot_to_ro` command and it should be working fine for testing.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi, Brandon

I use the cmd ‘reboot_to_rw’ to restart server, and edit the file ‘/etc/default/grub’ to reset the isolation cpus,

Changes the field ‘isolcpus=1-48  nohz_full=1-48  rcu_nocbs=1-48’ to
‘isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85’

Detail as below:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash hugepagesz=1G hugepages=40 default_hugepagesz=1G isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_iommu=on iommu=pt nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_pstate=disable nmi_watchdog=0 audit=0 nosoftlockup processor.max_cstate=1 intel_idle.max_cstate=1 hpet=disable mce=off tsc=reliable numa_balancing=disable"

Then use cmd: update-grub to make the configuration effective.
Then reboot server use ‘reboot_to_ro’, but I can’t find the change in cmdline ( cat /proc/cmdline).

Can you help me to check it?

Thanks

Hi Lihong,

I think any time is fine to make these changes.

Please use the 'reboot_to_rw' command once you have logged on, this will make sure your changes are saved.
It will also disable testing momentarily while you make your changes.

Once you're finished, you can reboot it with 'reboot_to_ro'.
Please let me know when you're done so I can make sure everything is working as intended.
We could also do this change for you if needed.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi, Brandon

I find  the grub configuration of isolation cpu miss the logic cores which at some thread.

For example:
If the server cpus layout as below, and want to config the isolation cpu from 1-20
The config of isolation should is ‘isolcpus=1-20,49-68’

[cid:1717f4fa8006917eb1]

So, I want to change the grub configuration of the isolation cpus.
From ‘isolcpus=1-48’ change to ‘isolcpus=1-21,49-68,24-37,72-85’

Can you help me check which time is suite to do this change ?

Hi Lihong,

I have changed the baselines to reflect the new expected values.
The performance tests should work as expected and pass.

We will email again in the future if we come across any problems.
Feel free to email us as well if you would like to make any other changes.

Thank you for all your help

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562

64

2048

41.439


FVL:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

59.608

64

2048

47.73


For the testbed in UNH, it’s a 2.1Ghz CPU server, so the expected number should be
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

64

2048

41.439 / 2.5 * 2.1=34.809


FVL:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

59.608 / 2.5 * 2.1=50.071

64

2048

47.73 / 2.5 * 2.1=40.093

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Lihong,

I saw your changes and applied them manually.
This involves me taking the machine down for maintenance on our backend, and then doing a normal `reboot`.

Now when I do `cat /proc/cmdline` it shows:
`BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-55-generic root=UUID=3801030b-237d-428e-9e67-d81e12f16308 ro quiet splash hugepagesz=1G hugepages=40 default_hugepagesz=1G isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_iommu=on iommu=pt nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_pstate=disable nmi_watchdog=0 audit=0 nosoftlockup processor.max_cstate=1 intel_idle.max_cstate=1 hpet=disable mce=off tsc=reliable numa_balancing=disable vt.handoff=1`

Which is what I think we wanted to achieve.
I have now done the `reboot_to_ro` command and it should be working fine for testing.

Hi Lihong,

I think any time is fine to make these changes.

Please use the 'reboot_to_rw' command once you have logged on, this will make sure your changes are saved.
It will also disable testing momentarily while you make your changes.

Once you're finished, you can reboot it with 'reboot_to_ro'.
Please let me know when you're done so I can make sure everything is working as intended.
We could also do this change for you if needed.

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

Thanks. Brandon.

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Lihong,

I have fixed the NNT server not being called by Jenkins. It should work
fine now.
We did run into an issue where it could not detect huge pages information,
but rebooting it again fixed the issue.
I have also done the same thing to the FVL server. Both of them should be
called by Jenkins for testing.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi Lihong,

I have fixed the NNT server not being called by Jenkins. It should work fine now.
We did run into an issue where it could not detect huge pages information, but rebooting it again fixed the issue.
I have also done the same thing to the FVL server. Both of them should be called by Jenkins for testing.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi Lihong,

I saw your changes and applied them manually.
This involves me taking the machine down for maintenance on our backend, and then doing a normal `reboot`.

Now when I do `cat /proc/cmdline` it shows:
`BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.15.0-55-generic root=UUID=3801030b-237d-428e-9e67-d81e12f16308 ro quiet splash hugepagesz=1G hugepages=40 default_hugepagesz=1G isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_iommu=on iommu=pt nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 intel_pstate=disable nmi_watchdog=0 audit=0 nosoftlockup processor.max_cstate=1 intel_idle.max_cstate=1 hpet=disable mce=off tsc=reliable numa_balancing=disable vt.handoff=1`

Which is what I think we wanted to achieve.
I have now done the `reboot_to_ro` command and it should be working fine for testing.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi, Brandon

I use the cmd ‘reboot_to_rw’ to restart server, and edit the file ‘/etc/default/grub’ to reset the isolation cpus,

‘isolcpus=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 nohz_full=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85 rcu_nocbs=1-21,49-69,24-37,72-85’

Then use cmd: update-grub to make the configuration effective.
Then reboot server use ‘reboot_to_ro’, but I can’t find the change in cmdline ( cat /proc/cmdline).

Can you help me to check it?

Hi Lihong,

I think any time is fine to make these changes.

Please use the 'reboot_to_rw' command once you have logged on, this will make sure your changes are saved.
It will also disable testing momentarily while you make your changes.

Once you're finished, you can reboot it with 'reboot_to_ro'.
Please let me know when you're done so I can make sure everything is working as intended.
We could also do this change for you if needed.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi, Brandon

I find  the grub configuration of isolation cpu miss the logic cores which at some thread.

For example:
If the server cpus layout as below, and want to config the isolation cpu from 1-20
The config of isolation should is ‘isolcpus=1-20,49-68’

[cid:1717f4fa8006917eb1]

So, I want to change the grub configuration of the isolation cpus.
From ‘isolcpus=1-48’ change to ‘isolcpus=1-21,49-68,24-37,72-85’

Can you help me check which time is suite to do this change ?

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

Thanks. Brandon.

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.


Thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

I have enabled the 10G Intel machine for testing.
If you would like to make any more changes, please let me know so I can perform the necessary steps to prepare the machine for changes.
Please feel free to let me know if you need anything.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

We worked out a workaround on Intel testbeds. NNT(10G) and FVL(40G). Could you please help to recover them?

But, for FVL(40G) testbed,  we met some problems, could you please help to check before recover it

  *   Sometime 1G hugepage will be changed to 2Mhugepage automatically...we have to restart the system
  *   When we debugging on the testbed, found that Trex was killed by some one(app)..
Please help to check if any other program running on the testbed.

Yes, it’s a wired issue. And it also mixed our DTS upgrading and Trex upgrading.
So we are reviewing our DTS script, different Trex version, and CI calling procedure.

How is the current status of the Intel 82599ES?

This was just a weird issue with the packet generator not cleaning itself after a test fast enough before another test.
I'll rerun the tests that were affected and keep an eye out to see if it's stable enough to be put back online.

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Lihong,

Sorry about that, I have reset the baseline to the values you sent in the
previous email.
I'll look to rerun tests that have failed due to the incorrect baseline.

Thanks for letting me know,

Hi, Brandon

I checked the new result of FVL, find the expected value also not changed.
From the log find the expected value also is:
[cid:image001.png@01D61E29.70A1C270]

Can you help to double check it ? Is there any different between FVL and NNT ?

Hi Lihong,

Sorry about that, I have reset the baseline to the values you sent in the previous email.
I'll look to rerun tests that have failed due to the incorrect baseline.

Thanks for letting me know,

Hi Lihong,

I have changed the baselines to reflect the new expected values.
The performance tests should work as expected and pass.

We will email again in the future if we come across any problems.
Feel free to email us as well if you would like to make any other changes.

Thank you for all your help

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562

For the testbed in UNH, it’s a 2.1Ghz CPU server, so the expected number should be
NNT:

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

Thanks

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Lihong,

The expected value was reset by one of our internal scripts.
I believe that I have resolved this issue for the future by ensuring that

I will continue to monitor this expected throughput in case of any issues.

Thanks for your patience,
Brandon

Hi Lihong,

Just a further update: we have noticed that there is another internal
script that is used to calculate baselines that will pull a newer baseline
if it is found.
We are looking to solve the issues that we are having with baselines and
will get back to you.

Thanks for your patience,
Brandon

Hi Lihong,

Just a further update: we have noticed that there is another internal script that is used to calculate baselines that will pull a newer baseline if it is found.
We are looking to solve the issues that we are having with baselines and will get back to you.

Thanks for your patience,
Brandon

Hi Lihong,

The expected value was reset by one of our internal scripts.
I believe that I have resolved this issue for the future by ensuring that the baseline that you sent me will not be overwritten automatically.

I will continue to monitor this expected throughput in case of any issues.

Thanks for your patience,

Hi, Brandon

I checked the new result of FVL, find the expected value also not changed.
From the log find the expected value also is:
[cid:image001.png@01D62552.0A1802A0]

Can you help to double check it ? Is there any different between FVL and NNT ?

Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:

expected_value

64

52.562

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

Hi Lihong,

The expected value was reset by one of our internal scripts.
I believe that I have resolved this issue for the future by ensuring that the baseline that you sent me will not be overwritten automatically.

I will continue to monitor this expected throughput in case of any issues.

Thanks for your patience,

Hi, Brandon

I checked the new result of FVL, find the expected value also not changed.
From the log find the expected value also is:
[cid:image001.png@01D62862.A8915090]

Can you help to double check it ? Is there any different between FVL and NNT ?

Hi Lihong,

Sorry about that, I have reset the baseline to the values you sent in the previous email.
I'll look to rerun tests that have failed due to the incorrect baseline.

Thanks for letting me know,

Hi Lihong,

I have changed the baselines to reflect the new expected values.
The performance tests should work as expected and pass.

We will email again in the future if we come across any problems.
Feel free to email us as well if you would like to make any other changes.

Thank you for all your help

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562

64

2048

41.439


FVL:

512

59.608

2048

47.73


For the testbed in UNH, it’s a 2.1Ghz CPU server, so the expected number should be
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

512

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

41.439 / 2.5 * 2.1=34.809


FVL:

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.

I've applied the same fix to the Intel 10G machine.
It should be pulling the correct baseline values from now on.

Hi, Brandon

Thanks for your help to check the issues of baseline, and I find the FVL env is ok, the expected value has been changed to the value we wanted.
But the baseline of NNT has changed, can you help to check it ?

Thanks

Hi Lihong,

Just a further update: we have noticed that there is another internal script that is used to calculate baselines that will pull a newer baseline if it is found.
We are looking to solve the issues that we are having with baselines and will get back to you.

Thanks for your patience,
Brandon

Hi Lihong,

The expected value was reset by one of our internal scripts.
I believe that I have resolved this issue for the future by ensuring that the baseline that you sent me will not be overwritten automatically.

I will continue to monitor this expected throughput in case of any issues.

Thanks for your patience,
Brandon

Hi, Brandon

I checked the new result of FVL, find the expected value also not changed.
From the log find the expected value also is:
[cid:image001.png@01D62A9B.7B8F1380]

Can you help to double check it ? Is there any different between FVL and NNT ?

We will email again in the future if we come across any problems.
Feel free to email us as well if you would like to make any other changes.

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for you recommends, I have done the changes.
As the throughput  value of nic_single_core is proportional to the cpu frequency.
I recommend you can change the baseline according to our report system.

On the our 2.50GHz system, the baseline value as below:
NNT:
pkt_size

trd/rxd

expected_value

64

512

52.562

For the testbed in UNH, it’s a 2.1Ghz CPU server, so the expected number should be
NNT:

52.562 / 2.5 * 2.1=44.152

Subject: Re: [dpdklab] Re: [dpdk-ci] Intel performance test is failing

Hi Zhaoyan,

To make changes to either Intel machine, please reboot using the command "reboot_to_rw" as root to reboot the machine into read/write mode.
This command will also disable any testing on the machine.

To re-enable the machine, please run "reboot_to_ro" as root, and it will save all of the changes that you've made and re-enable testing on the machine.
I recommend rebooting using either "reboot_to_rw" or "reboot_to_ro" instead of the normal "reboot" while you're making changes.

After you're done, please let me know. I'll have to manually run a test and update the baseline using our internal CI.

Thank you

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, we have a system in place that resets any changes made while testing is enabled for a machine.
If you would like, I can disable testing and allow you to make permanent changes.

I can also reset the baseline of Intel 10G test performance once you make these changes.
Please let me know if you would like to make permanent changes on the Intel 10G so I can disable it for you.

That’s good. We have made changed on 10G testbed.

I monitored the several execution results; I found the results of 10G always has -0.9%~-1.x% gap against expected number. So it could lead to see sometime failures..+-1% I suggest adjusting the expected number. I don’t know where the expected number is from? as I know it a dynamic number? depends on baseline.. Please help to clarify, thanks.

Hi Zhaoyan,

Currently, the 40G machine is stable enough to be put on production dashboard to run tests which may cause Trex to be killed.
Should I disable the 40G Intel machine for you to make changes?

Also, just for confirmation: on the 10G machine, is the folder that you are using for the testing located in /opt/test-harness/dts-2020-3-4, or are you still using the one in the standard /opt/test-harness/dts folder?

If everything is ok, I will enable the 10G machine for production testing.

Thank you very much

Any news about this?

I received a failure on a patch of mine (changing macros in a ARM header).
https://lab.dpdk.org/results/dashboard/patchsets/9900/

But this time, it is with the 40G Intel nic test.
