#. VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS
- - **Added new performance testbed 3n-snr** (3 Node SnowRidge, with Intel
- Atom processors), to later replace 3n-dnv and 2n-dnv (3 and 2 Node
- Denverton) testbeds.
+ - **Enhanced and added VPP hoststack tests** to daily and weekly
+ trending including: Quic VPP Echo, UDP+TCP LD_PRELOAD iPerf3,
+ LD_PRELOAD NGINX.
- - **Added GTPU HW offload tests** using VPP GTPU hardware offload
- with Intel e810 4p25ge NICs (3n-icx testbeds only). These tests
- were already there in CSIT-2206, but were yielding invalid
- results due to using TRex v2.97 that was incompatible with e810
- NICs used for those tests.
+ - **Added Nvidia/Mellanox DPDK tests** to daily and weekly trending
+ and report, in addition to RDMA_CORE ones that were already
+ there.
- - **Added Wireguard tests** using VPP software crypto (3n-icx, 3n-snr
- testbeds) and using built-in hardware crypto QAT device (3n-snr testbed
- only).
+ - **Jumbo frames tests** got fixed and re-added number of to report
+ coverage tests.
- - **Reduction of tests**: Removed certain test variations executed
- iteratively for the report (as well as in daily and weekly
- trending) due to physical testbeds overload.
+ - **Intel Xeon SKX performance testbeds** got decommissioned and
+ removed from FD.io performance lab.
#. TEST FRAMEWORK
- - CSIT-2210 executes all VPP v22.10 performance tests using vpp ubuntu2204
- images, due to CSIT execution environment change as noted below. This
- applies to all performance testbeds except Denverton. Consequently, VPP
- v22.06 has not been re-tested in CSIT-2210 environment, as no ubuntu204
- images are available for that VPP version. Performance comparison
- between VPP v22.10 (current version) vs VPP v22.06 (previous version)
- may be impacted by VPP build environment change (ubuntu2004 to ubuntu
- 2204) change and CSIT environment change. See :ref:`vpp_rca` for
- details.
+ - **CSIT test environment** version has not changed from ver. 11 used
+ in previous release, see :ref:`test_environment_versioning`.
- - **CSIT test environment** version has been updated to ver. 11, see
- :ref:`test_environment_versioning`.
-
- - **TCP TPUT profiles** had to be changed, as newer TRex versions
- are not deterministic enough when deciding when to send an ACK.
-
- - **CSIT PAPI support**: Due to issues with PAPI performance, and
- deprecation of VAT, VPP CLI is used in CSIT for many VPP scale
- tests. See :ref:`vpp_known_issues`.
+ - **CSIT PAPI optimizations for scale** got applied improving PAPI
+ programming speed especially for large scale tests. VAT has been
+ now completely deprecated from CSIT.
- **General Code Housekeeping**: Ongoing code optimizations and bug
fixes.
#. PRESENTATION AND ANALYTICS LAYER
- - **C-Dash** `performance dashboard `_ got updated UI and
- updated backend increasing its performance and robustness.
+ - `Performance dashboard `_ got updated with
+ addition of VPP telemetry trending across all VPP tests. A number
+ of code and AWS resource usage optimizations got applied to the
+ data processing pipeline and UI frontend and backend.
