Hello,
We ran the following functional tests with Nvidia hardware:
- Basic functionality:
Send and receive multiple types of traffic.
- testpmd xstats counter test.
- testpmd timestamp test.
- Changing/checking link status through testpmd.
- rte_flow tests (See https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/nics/mlx5.html for
supported features)
- RSS tests.
- VLAN filtering, stripping, and insertion tests.
- Checksum and TSO tests.
- ptype tests.
- link_status_interrupt example application tests.
- l3fwd-power example application tests.
- Multi-process example applications tests.
- Hardware LRO tests.
- Buffer Split tests.
- Tx scheduling tests.
We ran our testing with Shani's backport for 9ec0c6bda04a ("net/mlx5:
add RSS TIR registration API") on top of v25.11.1-rc1. Environments:
- NIC: ConnectX-7 / OS: Ubuntu 24.04 / Driver: DOCA-Host 3.3.0-088000 /
Firmware: 28.48.1000
- DPU: BlueField-3 / OS: Ubuntu 24.04 | DOCA SW version: 3.3.0 /
Firmware: 24.48.1000
We have not identified any new issues caused by changes in this release;
however, we are still investigating test failures that are suspected to
be related to environment changes.
Thanks,
Ali
