- - **Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx testbeds**: VPP performance
- test data is not included in this report version. This is due to
- the lower performance and behaviour inconsistency of these
- systems following the upgrade of processor microcode packages
- (skx ucode 0x2000064, clx ucode 0x500002c), done as part of
- updating Ubuntu 18.04 LTS kernel version. Tested VPP and DPDK
- applications (L3fwd) are affected. Skx and Clx test data will be
- added in subsequent maintenance report version(s) once the issue
- is resolved. See :ref:`vpp_known_issues`.
-
- - **Service density 2n-skx tests**: Added new NF density tests with
- IPsec encryption between DUTs.
-
- - **AVF tests**: Full test coveraged based on code changes in CSIT
- core layer (driver/interface awareness) and generated by suite
- generator (Intel Fortville NICs only).
-
- - **Hoststack TCP/IP tests**: Major refactor of VPP Hoststack TCP/IP
- performance tests using WRK generator talking to the VPP HTTP
- static server plugin measuring connections per second and
- requests per second. Added iperf3 tests with LDPreload.
-
- - **Latency HDRHistogram**: Added High Dynamic Range Histogram
- latency measurements based on the new capability in TRex traffic
- generator. HDRH latency data presented in latency packet
- percentile graphs and in detailed results tables.
+ - **Intel Xeon Ice Lake**: Performance test data for these platforms
+ continues to be provided by external Intel benchmarking labs
+ executing |csit-release| tests. For details about the physical
+ setup see :ref:`tested_physical_topologies`.
