-List of known issues in |csit-release| for VPP performance tests:
-
-+----+-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| # | JiraID | Issue Description |
-+====+=========================================+==========================================================================================================+
-| 1 | `CSIT-570 | Sporadic (1 in 200) NDR discovery test failures on x520. DPDK reporting rx-errors, indicating L1 issue. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-570>`_ | Suspected issue with HW combination of X710-X520 in LF testbeds. Not observed outside of LF testbeds. |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 2 | `VPP-662 | 9000B packets not supported by NICs VIC1227 and VIC1387. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-662>`_ | |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 3 | `CSIT-1498 | Memif tests are sporadically failing on initialization of memif connection. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1498>`_ | |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 4 | `VPP-1677 | 9000B ip4 nat44: VPP crash + coredump. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1677>`_ | VPP crashes very often in case that NAT44 is configured and it has to process IP4 jumbo frames (9000B). |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 5 | `CSIT-1591 | All CSIT scale tests can not use PAPI due to much slower performance compared to VAT/CLI (it takes much |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1499>`_ | longer to program VPP). This needs to be addressed on the PAPI side. |
-| +-----------------------------------------+ |
-| | `VPP-1763 | |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1763>`_ | |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 6 | `VPP-1675 | IPv4 IPSEC 9000B packet tests are failing as no packet is forwarded. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1675>`_ | Reason: chained buffers are not supported. |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 7 | `CSIT-1593 | IPv4 AVF 9000B packet tests are failing on 3n-skx while passing on 2n-skx. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1593>`_ | |

+| # | JiraID | Issue Description |
++====+=========================================+===========================================================================================================+
+| 1 | `CSIT-1789 | AVF driver does not perform RSS in a deterministic way. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1789>`_ | VPP now uses the same RSS key with AVF driver as with DPDK driver. |
++----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| 2 | `CSIT-1786 | IP4 and IP6 scale tests failing with no traffic forwarded. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1786>`_ | CSIT replaced the old single VAT command by file full of "exec" CLI commands executed by VAT. |

+| # | JiraID | Issue Description |
++====+=========================================+===========================================================================================================+
+| 3 | `CSIT-1782 | Multicore AVF tests are failing when trying to create interface. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1782>`_ | Frequency is reduced by CSIT workaround, but occasional failures do still happen. |
++----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| 4 | `CSIT-1671 | All CSIT scale tests can not use PAPI due to much slower performance compared to VAT/CLI (it takes much |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1671>`_ | longer to program VPP). This needs to be addressed on the PAPI side. |
+| +-----------------------------------------+ Currently, the time critical code uses VAT running large files with exec statements and CLI commands. |
+| | `VPP-1763 | Still, we needed to reduce the number of scale tests run to keep overall duration reasonable. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1763>`_ | More improvements needed to achieve sufficient configuration speed. |
++----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| 5 | `CSIT-1789 | IPSEC SW async scheduler tests show bad behavior. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1789>`_ | VPP code is not behaving correctly when crypto workers are the bottleneck. |
+| +-----------------------------------------+ |
+| | `VPP-1998 | |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1998>`_ | |
++----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| 6 | `CSIT-1785 | NAT44ED tests failing to establish all TCP sessions. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1785>`_ | At least for max scale, in allotted time (limited by session 500s timeout) due to worse |
+| +-----------------------------------------+ slow path performance than previously measured and calibrated for. |
+| | `VPP-1972 | CSIT removed the max scale NAT tests to avoid this issue. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1972>`_ | |
++----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| 7 | `CSIT-1791 | Performance regression in RDMA tests, due to CSIT environment changes. |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1791>`_ | Two symptoms: 1. 10-20% regression across most tests. 2. DUT performance cap just below 38 Mpps. |
