I'll review this today.

[Rafael David Tinoco (rafaeldtinoco)]

Okay, just like the eoan merge, I have reviewed this in the same way: functional tests against 2 different vhostuser setups: client and server, with one using 4 queues and the other a single queue.

just like eoan's merge, this one looks fine for packaging files as well. All other changes are due to the new micro release, which is fine.

Functional test looked okay as well, with a small performance decrease for my test case, which is probably nothing as the deviation between one measurement and the other would be justified by not having my vCPUs pinned on my host.

+1 on my side.

+From: Christian Ehrhardt <[e-mail]>
+Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2019 14:19:36 +0200
+Subject: [PATCH] build: avoid --as-needed as it causes overlinking
+
+A while ago telemetry was added in 57ae0ec6 and it also added as-needed
+to config/meson.build. This seems no more needed these days as due to other
+build changes the ordering in buildlogs is:
+  [...] -lrte_telemetry [...] -Wl,--no-as-needed [...]
+Which means telemetry no more benefits from --no-as-needed anyway.
+
+Overlinking problems get triggered by the meson generated pkgconfig which
+will have:
+   [...] -Wl,--no-as-needed <somelibsusedbydpdk>
+This will overlink <somelibs> and in addition anything that follows
+as it also doesn't wrap back to --as-needed. So if a projects includes
+dpdk libs + <other> it will also consider <other> with --no-as-needed.

The imissed counter is the amount of packets that could not be delivered to SW because a queue was full. Packets not received due to congestion in the bus or on the NIC can be queried via the rx_discards_phy xstats counter.
 
 Extended statistics can be queried using ``rte_eth_xstats_get()``. The extended statistics expose a wider set of counters counted by the device. The extended port statistics counts the number of packets received or sent successfully by the port. As Mellanox NICs are using the :ref:`Bifurcated Linux Driver <linux_gsg_linux_drivers>` those counters counts also packet received or sent by the Linux kernel. The counters with ``_phy`` suffix counts the total events on the physical port, therefore not valid for VF.

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* DPDK 18.11.3 contains fixes up to DPDK v19.08. Issues identified/fixed in DPDK master branch after DPDK v19.08 may be present in DPDK 18.11.3
+* Microsoft validation team testing saw a performance drop with some multicore tests compared to previous testing at time of DPDK 18.11.2 release. A re-run of DPDK 18.11.2 showed a similar drop, so it is not believed that there is any regression in DPDK.
