Here is the list of known issues in CSIT |release| for VPP performance tests:\r
\r
-+---+-------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
-| # | Issue | Description |\r
-+---+-------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
-| 1 | Sporadic IPv4 routed-forwarding NDR discovery | Suspected issue with DPDK IPv4 checksum calculation. |\r
-| | test failures for 1518B frame size | Observed frequency: sporadic, ca. 20% to 30% of test runs. |\r
-+---+-------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
-| 2 | Vic1385 and Vic1227 NICs jumbo frames test | Suspected issue with VIC DPDK drivers that do not support jumbo |\r
-| | failures (9000B) | frames (dropped rx-miss). Observed frequency: 100%. |\r
-+---+-------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
-| 3 | Vic1385 and Vic1227 performance | Low performance of NDR results. Big difference between NDR and |\r
-| | | PDR. . |\r
-+---+-------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
-| 4 | Sporadic NDR discovery test failures on x520 | Suspected issue with HW settings (BIOS, FW) in LF |\r
-| | | infrastructure. Issue can't be replicated outside LF. |\r
-+---+-------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
-| 5 | Non-repeatible zig-zagging NDR throughput | Suspected NIC driver issue in multi-thread multi-core operation |\r
-| | results for multi-thread multi-core tests | affectin NDR throughput. Applies to XL710 and X710 NICs tested. |\r
-| | - 2t2c, 4t4c - for some tested NICs. | |\r

+| # | Issue | Jira ID | Description |\r
++---+-------------------------------------------------+------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
+| 1 | NDR discovery test failures 1518B frame size | VPP-663 | VPP reporting errors: dpdk-input Rx ip checksum errors. |\r
+| | for ip4scale200k, ip4scale2m scale IPv4 routed- | | Observed frequency: all test runs. |\r
+| | forwarding tests. ip4scale20k tests are fine. | | |\r
++---+-------------------------------------------------+------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
+| 2 | VAT API timeouts during ip6scale2m scale IPv6 | VPP-712 | Needs fixing VPP VAT API timeouts for large volume of IPv6 |\r
+| | routed-forwarding tests when volume adding IPv6 | | routes. |\r
+| | routes - 2M in this case. ip6scale2kk works. | | |\r
++---+-------------------------------------------------+------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
+| 3 | Vic1385 and Vic1227 low performance | VPP-664 | Low NDR performance. |\r
+| | | | |\r

+| 4 | Sporadic NDR discovery test failures on x520 | CSIT-750 | Suspected issue with HW settings (BIOS, FW) in LF |\r
+| | | | infrastructure. Issue can't be replicated outside LF. |\r
++---+-------------------------------------------------+------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
+| 5 | VPP in 2t2c setups - large variation | CSIT-568 | Suspected NIC firmware or DPDK driver issue affecting NDR |\r
+| | of discovered NDR throughput values across | | throughput. Applies to XL710 and X710 NICs, x520 NICs are fine. |\r
+| | multiple test runs with xl710 and x710 NICs. | | |\r
++---+-------------------------------------------------+------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+\r
+| 6 | Lower than expected NDR and PDR throughput with | CSIT-569 | Suspected NIC firmware or DPDK driver issue affecting NDR and |\r
+| | xl710 and x710 NICs, compared to x520 NICs. | | PDR throughput. Applies to XL710 and X710 NICs. |\r
