 #. DPDK PERFORMANCE TESTS
 
 #. DPDK PERFORMANCE TESTS
 

-   - **Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx testbeds**: Testpmd and
-     L3fwd 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) 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:`dpdk_known_issues`.
+   - CSIT test environment is versioned, see
+     :ref:`test_environment_versioning`.
+
+   - **Upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS**: Reinstall base operating system to Ubuntu
+     20.04.2 LTS. Upgrade includes also baseline Docker containers used for
+     spawning topology.
