Subtrees -------- * main * Some patches won't able to make -rc1, there is no list on what won't make * Some patches are stuck because they are waiting for response * All authors please response/follow your patches * There is a build issue needs immediate attention https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=556 * Power patches are in the queue, discussions going on * Thomas has priority on ehtdev patches * A new version of 'close()' set expected from Thomas * Will pull form sub-trees * Windows patches, most of them merged for the release * -rc1 most probably will be out on Monday * Ferruh will target to close next-net Friday evening * More patches can be postponed to -rc2, even library ones, need to discuss * Will keep release date as it is for now, will discuss it again around the -rc2 timeline * next-net * Following ethdev patch reviews are going on, target is to get them for -rc1 * support VLAN attributes in ETH and VLAN items * Rx buffer split * New version sent today, there is a comment from Jerin after that resolved we can proceed, may need a new version * support for hairpin between two ports * a new version sent this morning, Thomas is reviewing the set * Tunnel Offload API * There is an outstanding comment, need to resolve * Requested for a rebased version, waiting for it * rte_flow API thread safe * since patchset has both eal and ethdev patch, it will be merged to main * will review ethdev patch * ethdev cleanup patches * 'stop', 'close', xstats, unify returns, unify statics * These all target for -rc1, but will be merges as last thing to next-net to not cause conflict with existing ethdev patches * Some are waiting for new versions * Following ethdev patches will be postponed to next release * capture hardware timestamps * There are still issues to resolve for the patchset * No version received yet, too late for -rc1 * use generic flow command to re-realize mirror rule * received too late (yesterday), will consider for next release * ethdev: add rx offload to drop error packets * discussions are going on, no ack by maintainers, will postpone * ethdev: support device reset and recovery events * No ack from maintainers, waiting for response * not clear what will happen if device can't recover * ethdev: add security flow item * There are arguments against it, will be rejected as it is * txgbe PMD * Overall looks good, planning to merge for release, minor changes requested * Since above ethdev cleanup patches doesn't include this PMD, it will conflict * To prevent this conflict better to close ethdev patches in -rc1, and get this PMD on -rc2 after rebased to latest ethdev changes. * next-crypto * Akhil prepared the pull request for the -rc1 * Two patches are not merged * Security one and cryptodev one * A cryptodev patch can be merged in -rc2, it is not ideal to merge library changes after -rc1, but it can be discussed case by case. * next-eventdev * Jerin will prepare pull request today * There are two new PMDs, two DLB driver versions * Will wait eal and eventdev spec issues resolved in -rc1 * eal dependency is for the new CPU instructions * Power changes are using those * Will include Ruifeng from the Arm perspective * The instructions are not supported by Arm, but good to check the architecture * Anyway new functions being experimental enables us fixing them later * Will consider PMDs for -rc2 * next-virtio * There is a fix in backlog can go in -rc2 * Arm NEON patch will be postponed for next release * vhost add vectorized data path * The improvement is small, may not worth the complexity it brings * No go with current improvement level * Add async datapath to vhost sample and optimize async datapath * Under review * Will get it for -rc1 if can make on time, else will be considered for -rc2 * Some vhost security issues are still stuck in the security process * Ferruh will be sure Maxime is involved into all, if not already * next-net-intel * There is new avf shared code as a major set * There are other various PMD patches too, some can go in after -rc1 * next-net-mlx * There are new series based on new ethdev features * next-net-mrvl * Ready for -rc1 * next-net-brcm * There will be more patches for -rc2, after ethdev features merged for -rc1 * There are a few old patches in the backlog to take care DPDK Release Status Meetings ============================ The DPDK Release Status Meeting is intended for DPDK Committers to discuss the status of the master tree and sub-trees, and for project managers to track progress or milestone dates.
