For this + purpose, we've added the oswin-tempest-plugin repository, and we've added + a few dozen tests used to validate different features and scenarios. This + tempest plugin will continue to be updated and expanded, covering new + features in upcoming cycles. + +* Added several new features, including: SR-IOV support (os-win and + networking-hyperv), NIC hardware offload support (os-win), SAN policy + getter / setter, attaching / detaching VHD to hosts, and so on. + +* Using release notes for any note-worthy new features we've added in os-win + and networking-hyperv. + +* Bug fixing and increasing the reliability of the networking-hyperv, os-win + library, and their unit tests. For unit tests, we've started mock autospecs, + which ensures that non-existent attributes are not used, and that mocked + method calls have their signatures respected. + +In the following cycle, I'd like to continue the work we started on +oswin-tempest-plugin and include the tests in regular Hyper-V CI runs. +Additionally, documentation always needs work and updates. + +Last, but not least, I would like us to continue integrating the aforementioned +features we've introduced in os-win in other projects (nova, cinder, +networking-hyperv, and so on). A feature of personal interest would be the +usage of SR-IOV VFs, IOV queues, VMQs, and IPSec task offloading capabilities +which are available for Hyper-V and how to schedule and consume them through +nova / neutron. + +These are the main goals I have in mind that I would like to accomplish during +the Rocky cycle, among other minor goals. We will continue to support the +drivers / plugins we've added to other projects, and we'll continue to add new +features to them. New goals and suggestions are always welcome. + +Thank you for your consideration, + +Claudiu Belu
