[docs][reno] Update reno to include template
The template for release notes wasn't conforming to the expected
headings. A template was added to the config.
To generate a new note (from the base directory in the repo), use::
reno --rel-notes-dir docs/release/release-notes/ new slug-goes-here
The release notes are also included as part of the docs build, and the
existing releases notes have been renamed accordingly.

The telemetry agent currently supported by barometer +is collectd. Some additional collectd plugins and application were developed to add +the following functionality: + +Write/publishing Plugins: + +- aodh plugin: A notification plugin that pushes events to Aodh, and + creates/updates alarms appropriately. +- SNMP agent plugin: A write plugin that will act as an AgentX subagent that + receives and handles queries from SNMP master agent and returns the data + collected by read plugins. The SNMP Agent plugin handles requests only for OIDs + specified in configuration file. To handle SNMP queries the plugin gets data + from collectd and translates requested values from collectd’s internal format + to SNMP format. Supports SNMP: get, getnext and walk requests. +- gnocchi plugin: A write plugin that pushes the retrieved stats to Gnocchi. + It’s capable of pushing any stats read through collectd to Gnocchi, not just + the DPDK stats. + +Read Plugins: + +- Intel RDT plugin: A read plugin that provides the last level cache + utilization and memory bandwidth utilization. +- virt plugin: A read plugin that uses virtualization API libvirt to gather + statistics and events about virtualized guests on a system directly from the + hypervisor, without a need to install collectd instance on the guest. +- Open vSwitch stats plugin: A read plugin that retrieves interface stats from + OVS. + +In addition to the previous plugins from the Danube Release described below. + +Release Data +--------------- + ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| **Project** | Euphrates/barometer/barometer@opnfv | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| **Repo/commit-ID** | barometer/opnfv-5.1.0 | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| **Release designation** | Euphrates 5.1.0 | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| **Release date** | December 15th, 2017 | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| **Purpose of the delivery** | Official OPNFV release | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ + +Version change +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Module version changes +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +- There have been no version changes. + +Document version changes +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + + +Reason for version +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Feature additions +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +**JIRA BACK-LOG:** + ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| **JIRA REFERENCE** | **SLOGAN** | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| BAROMETER-51 | RDT Cache Feature | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| BAROMETER-53 | RAS Metrics and Events/ | +| | MCELOG Memory Errors | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| BAROMETER-55 | Libvirt Metrics and Events | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| BAROMETER-56 | Openvswitch Mrtics and Events | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| BAROMETER-59 | AODH plugin | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| BAROMETER-60 | Gnocchi Plugin | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| BAROMETER-58 | SNMP Agent | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ + +Bugs +~~~~ + +**JIRA TICKETS:** + ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| **JIRA REFERENCE** | **SLOGAN** | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| BAROMETER-80 | SNMP Agent testing with Intel RDT, | +| | MCELOG, Hugepages, and OVS Stats not | +| | functional in the Apex image of OPNFV| +| | Release E | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ +| | | +| | | ++--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------+ + +Deliverables +---------------- + +Software deliverables +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Features to Date +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Release B +~~~~~~~~~~ +The features implemented for OPNFV release B (as part of SFQM) in DPDK include: + +* Callback API to enable TX/RX timestamping to measure latency through DPDK. +* Extended NIC statistics API for 1GB, 10GB and 40GB NICs to expose detailed + statistics for DPDK interfaces in addition to the overall aggregate statistics. +* DPDK Keep Alive. + +Release C +~~~~~~~~~~ +The features implemented for OPNFV release C (as part of SFQM) include: + +* DPDK extended NIC stats API improvement;
