#. VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS
- - **BMRR Throughput**: MRR (Maximum Receive Rate) test code has been
- updated with a configurable burst MRR parameters: trial duration
- and number of trials in a single burst. Enables a new Burst MRR
- (BMRR for short) methodology for more precise performance
- trending. See updated :ref:`performance_test_methodology` section
- for more details.
-
- - **2n-skx tests**: Added performamce tests for 2n-skx (2-Node Xeon
- Skylake) testbeds: focus on baseline and scale tests, including
- VM vhost and Container memif tests.
-
- - **3n-skx tests**: Added performamce tests for 3n-skx (3-Node Xeon
- Skylake) testbeds: VM vhost and Container memif tests.
-
- - **VXLAN Scale Tests**: Added performamce tests for VXLAN scale with
- dot1q and VPP L2BD.
-
- - **AVF Driver Tests**: Added performamce tests for i40e AVF driver
- on VPP, no DPDK required.
-
- - **QAT**: Fixed reoccuring issues with QAT crypto accelerator cards.
-
- - **K8s/Ligato in Trending**: Added K8s/Ligato Container memif tests
- to daily trending.
-
-#. TEST FRAMEWORK
+ - **Service density 2n-skx tests**: Network Function Virtualization (NFV)
+ service density tests focus on measuring total per server throughput at
+ varied NFV service *packing* densities with vswitch providing host
+ dataplane. The goal is to compare and contrast performance of a shared
+ vswitch for different network topologies and virtualization technologies,
+ and their impact on vswitch performance and efficiency in a range of NFV
+ service configurations.
- **Experimental Soak Tests**: Added performamce soak tests framework
- code for extended time duration tests and throughput discovery
+ code for extended time duration tests and throughput discovery
at given PLR and at give total test time e.g. minutes, hours,
days, weeks, months, years. See updated
- :ref:`performance_test_methodology` section for more details.
-
- - **Trending Tests BMRR**: Used new Burst MRR (BMRR) tests for daily
- trending.
+ :ref:`test_methodology` section for more details.
- - **Per VPP Patch Performance Checks**: Per VPP gerrit patch vs.
- parent performance tests, anomaly detection and no verify voting
- (-1/0/+1) yet. Manual trigger only. Not "marketed" to FD.io
- community yet to avoid excessive LFN FD.io physical performance
- testbed blocking.
+#. TEST FRAMEWORK
- - **Patch-on-Patch Infra**: Added capability to run performance tests
- using CSIT gerrit patch code testing VPP gerrit patch code, i.e.
- before any VPP and/or CSIT code is merged into git branch.
+ - **Container code optimizations**: Optimized container library allows to
+ run containre_memif tests faster.
- - **CSIT PAPI Support**: Initial implementation of PAPI L1 KWs in
- CSIT using VPP Python bindings. Required for migraing away from
- VAT. Very few L1 KWs implemented ("show version", "show
- interfaces").
+ - **CSIT PAPI Support**: Continue converting existing VAT L1 keywords to
+ PAPI L1 KWs in CSIT using VPP Python bindings. Required for migrating away
+ from VAT.
- **General Code Housekeeping**: Ongoing RF keywords optimizations,
removal of redundant RF keywords.
- **Graphs Layout Improvements**: Improved performance graphs layout
for better readibility and maintenance: test grouping, axis
- labels, descriptions, other informative decoration. Master report
- generated. 744 graphs(!)
+ labels, descriptions, other informative decoration.
+#. MISCELLANEOUS
- - **Performance Trending**: Further improvements of continuous
- performance trending, anomaly detection and analysis.
+ - **3n-dnv Tests (3rd Party)**: Published performance tests for 3n-
+ dnv (3-Node Atom Denverton) from 3rd party testbeds running FD.io
+ |csit-release| automated testing code.
+ Only graphs for Packet Throughput and Speedup Multi-core and not
+ for Packet Latency were published as there are no results for Packet
+ Latency available.
