Progress for NILE Release
(summary: items 5,6,and 7 lack the necessary automated address discovery feature, defer)
see Nile Release Schedule Nile Release Progress page M4 currently due on Dec 9, M5 due on Dec 16
| 1 | Update OS versions | Tasks:
| Tasks 1, 3, and 4have been completed/merged. Not doing 2. DONE | |||
| 2 | Automate setting up eBPF-based CNIs - xdp, cilium, calico. | setup - xdp, cilium, calico. | Patch submitted patch, will request review. | |||
| 3 | Improve the ViNePerf Build Stability | Starting from the build to the 3 environments
| Testing in-progress: either run in OS or K8s - 2 and 3 are challenging and 3 is the priority. | |||
| 4 | eBPF Metrics Collection | Task: Develop Tool to collect metrics from eBPF programs. | Existing tool, just running it with a script Skywalking from Apache skywalking-rover possible eBPF plugin in collectd - propose for barometer or KDDI - | |||
| Tasks below are deferred from Moselle - likely Defer Again because container networking support is poor and requires significant work-arounds. | ||||||
| 5 | Epic-VINEPERF-652:Enhance XTesting-ViNePerf Integration | Moved to Next Release | depends on 7 | |||
| 6 | Task-VINEPERF-658:Enhance framework for XTesting-K8s Usecase | Partially done (reading results from output), Deployment tool. | 1 task remains | |||
| 7 | Task-VINEPERF-654:XTesting-ViNePerf Integration Enhancement - Kubernetes | Will not implement due to limitations with CNIs. Moved to Next release - if CNIs support this. | Need CNI to add flows automatically in Switches (Userspace-CNI, supports DPDK, OVS, VPP). Major impediment to integrate with X-Testing Sridhar will check with Xavier if ARP resolution is supported in Prox as a switch TBD | |||
