Minutes
Review/Carry forward pending action items
* Honnappa - Propose changes to DPDK to address changing the constants and
printfs, refer to Lijuan's email.
* Patches in internal review, to be pushed next week.
* More exploration (of printfs) is needed.
* All - Review Owen's DTS contributions guide.
* Juraj provided comments, Owen to review, then publish the final
version.
* Owen, Lijuan - Look for merging the makefile removal patch
(http://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dts/list/?series=20610)
* Honnappa - Understand how the SPDX change was done for the DPDK repo
* We understand this now, closing.
* Honnappa - Talk to techboard about files with the GPL2 license in DTS.
* Techboard notified, Hemant is fine with having the GPL2 license in
DTS, but discussion is still continuing.
* Juraj - Convert the makefile build for documentation to use meson build.
* Deferred to the future, when repositories are merged.
* Owen - RFC for making the python version 3.6
* Python 3.6 is EOL. Which version to use is informed by Python version
EOL, UNH lab's (and other lab's) software update policy and which version is
shipped with Ubuntu stable. Going with 3.8 for now. For the future, go with a
flexible approach where we won't use EOL Python versions and consider how labs
update their software.
* Owen - Look at making DTS build using the common DPDK repo in addition to
the existing tarball option.
* No progress.
Merging DTS into DPDK
* Are we going to integrate DTS with the DPDK build system? No resolution
yet.
* Try for 22.07
* Focus on framework and test cases used in CI
* Do a deep dive on Feb 9th - identify what needs to be done and estimate
the work.
Action Items
* Honnappa - Patches to DPDK to address changing the constants and printfs
under development.
* All - Review Owen's DTS contributions guide, Owen to review.
* Owen, Lijuan - Look for merging the makefile removal patch
(http://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dts/list/?series=20610) in the next release.
* Owen, Lijuan - Create release notes, capture the makefile deprecation in
them. Also add a notification/log to DTS runs.
* Honnappa - Continue the techboard discussion about files with the GPL2
license in DTS.
* Juraj - Postponed: Convert the makefile build for documentation to use
meson build after merging the repositories or the directory structure is known.
* Owen - RFC for making the python version 3.6 done, update with version
3.8.
