=C2=A0 =C2=A0* This will allow for =E2=80=9Cfull=E2=80=9D pe= rformance testing for the E810, the NIC requested by Intel for the NIC hard= ware refresh.

* NIC hardware refresh: How will requests from companies who do= nt produce NICs or servers be supported at the lab? Can they go into existi= ng servers donated by other companies?
=C2=A0 =C2=A0* UNH will try to be= flexible on this front while also honoring the requests and needs of the c= ompanies who donated the servers
=C2=A0 =C2=A0* We can=E2=80=99t do anyt= hing like this without the OK from the company who purchased the server

=C2=A0 =C2=A0* Lincoln has put together the = full list of devices to be ordered and is considering these questions, will= be following up with the Gov board with these plans

=C2=A0 =C2=A0* Aaron is following up with Thomas about getting co= mmit access for the dpdk-ci repo
* Aarch32 on ARM: We have dry run this = internally

=C2=A0 =C2= =A0* Malloc_perturb can be disabled
=C2=A0 =C2=A0* ARM will have access = to our GitLab for updating the set of tests being run
