-Changes in |csit-release|
--------------------------
-
-#. VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS
-
- - CSIT test environment is versioned, see
- :ref:`test_environment_versioning`.
-
- - To identify performance changes due to VPP code changes from
- v20.01.0 to v20.05.0, both have been tested in CSIT environment
- ver. 4 and compared against each other. All substantial
- progressions has been marked up with RCA analysis. See
- :ref:`vpp_compare_current_vs_previous_release` and
- :ref:`vpp_known_issues`.
-
-#. TEST FRAMEWORK
-
- - **CSIT PAPI support**: Due to issues with PAPI performance, VAT is
- still used in CSIT for all VPP scale tests. See known issues below.
-
- - **General Code Housekeeping**: Ongoing RF keywords optimizations,
- removal of redundant RF keywords and aligning of suite/test
- setup/teardowns.
-
-#. PRESENTATION AND ANALYTICS LAYER
-
- - **Graphs improvements**: Added possibility to use Gbps on Y-axis in
- Packet Throughput and Speedup Multi-Core graphs, added unidirectional
- mode to the Latency graphs.

-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 | `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). |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 4 | `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>`_ | |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 5 | `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. |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 6 | `CSIT-1593 | IPv4 AVF 9000B packet tests are failing on 3n-skx while passing on 2n-skx. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1593>`_ | |
-+----+-----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
-| 7 | `CSIT-1679 | 2n-clx VPP ip4 tests with xxv710 and avf driver are sporadically failing. |
-| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1679>`_ | |
