#. DPDK PERFORMANCE TESTS
- **Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx testbeds**: Testpmd and
- L3fwd test data is not included in this report version. This is
- due to performance and behaviour inconsistency following the
- upgrade to the latest Ubuntu 18.04 LTS kernel version
- (4.15.0-72-generic) and associated microcode packages (skx ucode
- 0x2000064, clx ucode 0x500002c). Test data will be added in
- subsequent maintenance report version(s) once the issue is
- resolved. See :ref:`dpdk_known_issues`.
