Get Involved

• We have a weekly hangout every Thursday at 4pm (CET), feel free to join at [1]
• we carry (some sort of) Minutes at [2]
• Join deb_dpdk IRC channel

What is this actually?

• Producing .deb packages of DPDK for Ubuntu and other Debian-based systems

• Throw together our collection of backports and other features to create a bigger and better DPDK package for all of us

• Testing .deb packaging of DPDK

• Testing by various different dpdk consumers reflected by the different participating people (openvswitch, vpp, odp, ...)

• Over time maybe useful tools and machinery in support / CI of same

• It essentially is a boiler plate to mature contributions in the face of multiple DPDK (packaging) consumers

• Mid term, once testing and packaging is matured; we intend to feed back generic parts (not release dependent) to the main dpdk.org repository

  • That should shrink the delta we have to maintain and is the right place to host it
  • The rule of thumb is all in /debian but without /debian/patches
  • This might eventually allow cross distribution sharing e.g. of init scripts

• We might discuss or even host Distribution release specific patches e.g. patches on top what got released into Debian sid

  • but this will in no way be a dpdk release specific a stable tree
  • In fact dpdk.org/Intel are working on creating stable trees currently which is great and would be the preferred things we would like to be based on eventually.
