- [1] DONE Regression in ACL tests. The cause is the CSIT part of

- [2] DONE Regression in tests using random flows.
- The cause is Gerrit 26456, unpinning random seed, needed to make TRex workers
- generate different sequences of packets. [CSIT-1731]

- [3] DONE Regression in base dot1q-l2xcbase suites. The cause is Gerrit 25363,
- which unified dot1q handling across various tests.
- Previously, this one suite was different (only handling dot1q on one port).

+ [4] DONE Progression in high performance tests due to Gerrit 26445.

- [5] OPEN Progression in performance of tests running VPP (l2xc) inside VM.
- Due to relatively high stdev of results, bisecting has not found a cause yet.

+ Gerrit 25309. Make VPP in VM worker placement deterministic.
[CSIT-1738]
[7] POSTPONED Possible anomaly, but stdev of results is high.
- Currently, the performance differences are considered to probably be just noise.

- [8] OPEN Regressions in some tests with VPP in VM and using l2xcbase as vswitch.
- The results have surprisingly small stdev, more investigation needed.

- [9] OPEN Progression in ip6 scale tests. Multiple candidate changes may have
- affect code efficiency, but they have also caused the tests to fail
- for a period of time. [CSIT-1735]
+ [9] OPEN Progression in all ip6 scale tests. Changes to vppinfra
+ bihash may have improved code efficiency. [CSIT-1735]
- [11] OPEN Progression in memif tests, mainly in avf-eth-l2xcbase-eth-2memif-1dcr.
- Not sure whether all memif tests are affected, nor what the cause is.
- [CSIT-1744]
