4	File	Class/function	What it changes	Status	Notes	Action	to be discussed	Resolution
5	project_dpdk.py	DPDKdut.build_install_dpdk	Enables iavf code for i40e NICs instead of i40evf	Closed	has been removed, dpdk modification addressed in 21.05; also changes config
6		TestSuite_iavf	enables iavf in drivers/net/iavf/iavf_ethdev.c and drivers/net/i40e/base/i40e_devids.h	Closed	same as in project_dpdk; resolved in DPDK 21.05	Not exist		Test suite is removed from DTS
7		TestSuite_ABI_stable	copies /root/shared_lib_negative to ${DTS_HOST_SHARED_LIB_PATH} - no idea what's copied and where, possibly a precompiled lib? according to docs? that is then modified code	Closed	This testing should be done out of DTS. UNH lab already does this testing. It should be deleted from DTS.	No idea
8		TestSuite_cvl_ecpri	adds printf, changes ifdef to if, adds dev->rx_pkt_burst = iavf_recv_pkts_flex_rxd; in drivers/net/iavf/iavf_rxtx.c	In process	get ptype from descriptor Need to check flex, AR->Lijuan. Lijuan is looking into configuring the device and PMD correctly so that the flex descriptor path can be activated without code changes to DPDK. The prints for PTYPE are already present in the function 'dump_pkt_burst' in testpmd.	MUST to have	Push DPDK to change ?
9		TestSuite_distributor	changes txRings in ./examples/distributor/main.c	Closed	Fix is merged in DPDK. Remove it from DTS.
10		TestSuite_efd.test_perf_efd_valuesize	sets RTE_EFD_VALUE_NUM_BITS in lib/librte_efd/rte_efd.h to 8, 16, 24, 32	Closed	librte_edf doesn't exist -> lib/efd/rte_efd.h It is possible to configure this in meson. Use the following command after creating the meson build directory before calling ninja. meson configure -Dc_args='-DRTE_EFD_VALUE_NUM_BITS=16'
