Release Notes
=============
Changes in |csit-release|
-------------------------
#. 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`.
#. DPDK RELEASE VERSION CHANGE
