+ // Alternative Note for 1st Bullet when bad microcode Skx, Clx results are published
+ - **Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx testbeds**: Testpmd and
+ L3fwd performance test data is included in this report version,
+ but it shows 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
+ corrected in subsequent maintenance report version(s) once the
+ issue is resolved. See :ref:`vpp_known_issues`.
