-General Notes
-=============
-
-All CSIT test results listed in this report are sourced and auto-generated
-from :file:`output.xml` :abbr:`RF (Robot Framework)` files resulting from
-:abbr:`LF (Linux Foundation)` FD.io Jenkins jobs execution against |vpp-release|
-release artifacts. References are provided to the original :abbr:`LF (Linux
-Foundation)` FD.io Jenkins job results. Additional references are provided to
-the :abbr:`RF (Robot Framework)` result files that got archived in FD.io nexus
-online storage system.
-
-FD.io CSIT project currently covers multiple FD.io system and sub-system
-testing areas and this is reflected in this report, where each testing area
-is listed separately, as follows:
-
-#. **VPP - Performance** - VPP benchmarking tests are executed in physical
- FD.io testbeds, focusing on VPP network data plane performance at this stage,
- both for Phy-to-Phy (NIC-to-NIC) and Phy-to-VM-to-Phy (NIC-to-VM-to-NIC)
- forwarding topologies. Tested across a range of NICs, 10GE, 25GE and 40GE
- interfaces, range of multi-thread and multi-core configurations. VPP
- application runs in host user-mode. TRex is used as a traffic generator.
-
-#. **LXC and Docker Containers VPP memif - Performance** - VPP memif
- virtual interface tests interconnect multiple VPP instances running in
- containers. VPP vswitch instance runs in bare-metal user-mode
- handling Intel x520 NIC 10GbE, Intel x710 NIC 10GbE, Intel xl710 NIC 40GbE
- interfaces and connecting over memif (Slave side) virtual interfaces to more
- instances of VPP running in LXC or in Docker Containers, both with memif
- virtual interfaces (Master side). Tested across a range of multi-thread and
- multi-core configurations. TRex is used as a traffic generator.
-
-#. **Container Topologies Orchestrated by K8s - Performance** - CSIT Container
- topologies connected over the memif virtual interface (shared memory
- interface). For these tests VPP vswitch instance runs in a Docker Container
- handling Intel x520 NIC 10GbE, Intel x710 NIC 10GbE interfaces and connecting
- over memif virtual interfaces to more instances of VPP running in Docker
- Containers with memif virtual interfaces. All containers are
- orchestrated by Kubernetes, with `Ligato <https://github.com/ligato>`_ for
- container networking. TRex is used as a traffic generator.
-
-#. **DPDK Performance** - VPP is using DPDK code to control and drive
- the NICs and physical interfaces. Tests are used as a baseline to
- profile performance of the DPDK sub-system. DPDK tests are executed in
- physical FD.io testbeds, focusing on Testpmd/L3FWD data plane performance for
- Phy-to-Phy (NIC-to-NIC). Tested across a range of NICs, 10GE, 25GE and 40GE
- interfaces, range of multi-thread and multi-core configurations.
- Testpmd/L3FWD application runs in host user-mode. TRex is used as a traffic
- generator.
-
-#. **VPP Functional** - VPP functional tests are executed in virtual
- FD.io testbeds focusing on VPP packet processing functionality, including
- network data plane and in -line control plane. Tests cover vNIC-to-vNIC
- vNIC-to-VM-to-vNIC forwarding topologies. Scapy is used as a traffic
- generator.
-
-#. **Honeycomb Functional** - Honeycomb functional tests are executed in
- virtual FD.io testbeds, focusing on Honeycomb management and programming
- functionality of VPP. Tests cover a range of CRUD operations executed
- against VPP.
-
-#. **NSH_SFC Functional** - NSH_SFC functional tests are executed in
- virtual FD.io testbeds focusing on NSH_SFC of VPP. Tests cover a range of
- CRUD operations executed against VPP.
-
-#. **DMM Functional** - DMM functional tests are executed in virtual FD.io
- testbeds demonstrates single server[DUT1] and single client[DUT2] scenario
- using DMM framework and kernel tcp/ip stack.
-
-FD.io CSIT system is developed using two main coding platforms :abbr:`RF (Robot
-Framework)` and Python2.7. |csit-release| source code for the executed test
-suites is available in CSIT branch |release| in the directory
-:file:`./tests/<name_of_the_test_suite>`. A local copy of CSIT source code
-can be obtained by cloning CSIT git repository - :command:`git clone
-https://gerrit.fd.io/r/csit`.
