Nile Progress M1 Release Plan Due M2 due 13
| all | Review Sridhar Rao input // Started Release Plan for ViNePerf Nile Reviewed the VinePerf Release Plan above. Several Moselle JIRA tickets need to move to Nile. (edit fix version) 1, 2, 5, Shivank will look at these, 3, 4, 6 Sridhar will look at. Shivank and Sridhar will meet separately to discuss. We concluded that our JIRA tickets are in good shape for M2, but Dave will probably let us know for sure... | |||||||
| Next week, Sridhar will present at the Tech Discuss! | eBPF -VinePerf will move to Tech discuss. | ||||||||
| Update INFO.yaml | Al Morton reviewed, suggested a change, removed that change, suggested the revised meeting link and time. | ||||||||
| eBPF | Sridhar presented slides, which he will use to familiarize Anuket with XDP and eBPF
L3AF project in LFN - life cycle management on eBPF programs Cillium project has done some of their own benchmarking - but uses some unknown TCP: https://docs.cilium.io/en/stable/operations/performance/benchmark/ Not much uptake in telco - still many operations issues. The Cillium community agrees that they have not made a good case for telco usage (in conversations with Sridhar). | ||||||||
| Shivank's Intern update |
Shivank's CPU not supported by DPDK . Need this for most of our benchmarking tools New T-rex traffic Gen have been added and a new DPDK folder. Sirdhar shared https://github.com/intel/afxdp-plugins-for-kubernetes it is a possible option to use Shivank will investigate. Mail to Casey Cain about Intern compensation and feedback. Shivank's report for last week: https://github.com/Alt-Shivam/eBPF-CNI Pod 18 connectivity not working for several days, impacting Shivank's work. Tim G says working... Need Pod 12 working as well. There is an active JIRA ticket and comment stream. Shivank testing with a VM and K8s cluster - can try out locally Need to review mid-term Mentoring report - Al and Sridhar completed in last half of the meeting. ACTION Al Morton invite Maryam meeting to discuss performance (when we agree it's the right time). | ||||||||
| Federica | Review Thesis proposal | ||||||||
Post review of Daniele's work closure to Daniele's work and see if there is anything worth publishing, may consider less-selective conferences if novelty is less | Sridhar | Some issues we dig into now No reply from simonartxavier@gmail.com and Luc? Al and Sridhar sent new messages. Once we containerize prox, and we assign multiple cores to single interface, it crashes. how can we run Prox with multiple cores in a container?? | |||||||
| Tasks and Action Plan for Shivank |
| ||||||||
Open Programmable Interface Project (Linux OPI) Change CPU NIC architecture, more autonomy and CPU power goes to NIC in OPI, more than smart NIC now. New Trust boundary between Autonomous NIC and CPU. | Sridhar | New project, governing board formed and TSC meeting set. Opportunity for Benchmarking: work with us. Need to know planned NIC speeds, Need NIC HW to benchmark. There will be a test bed discussion, UNH and Keysight collaboration - using Keysight tools. We want to join the collaboration. Maybe UNH would welcome our help to some degree. Need some time to understand how the DUT HW will be obtained and installed. Also Remote access (for us, like Intel labs). | |||||||
| Testbed - IXIA support | Sridhar/Al | 2nd ACTION: Do we have support from Ancuta or other IXIA person? Al Morton sent e-mail ACTION: License for IXIA HW - Check with Trevor Trevor Cooper says connected and powered on, but we still might have a license issue. Need Pierre's help. this seems to have stalled ... Pod 19 also not accessible - Dan Xu. ACTION: Al: can you add a comment in the Jira issue.. INFRA-7 ? As a PTL you can mention the dev is stuck with nodes being inaccessible | |||||||
| Additional Mentoring input | Sridhar/Federica | Federica Past meeting: python scripts. Possible combine 1 and 3 @Sridhar will expand on the proposal descriptions and Federica will begin to ask students about their interests. python scripting with K8s is possible for some students in 3rd year. Projects must have resume value, add skill set or new experience. Sridhar Rao created some projects. ACTION: See proposals & review https://wiki.anuket.io/display/HOME/Potential+Projects+for+Student+Volunteers

| Intern (background info) | Sridhar/Al/Federica/Shivank | XDP performance Studies for Cloud-Native NFV Use Cases "Maryam Tahhan joins the crew to talk XDP, AF_XDP, and fast networking" Operations support seems to be a big issue, and performance is currently about 0.7 of VPP and DPDK | |||||||
| K8s on Pod 12 | Sridhar | will look into it |
