Sorry for late notice, discoveries were coming faster than I was able to 
investigate.

Not listing:
- Regressions and failures with cause in CSIT code or drivers or firmware or 
hardware.
- Regressions and failures identified but also already fixed on stable/2202.

New in 22.02 (not present in 21.10)::

Regressions:

- Regression across all dpdk_plugin tests:
  - Cause is somewhere in DPDK upgrade, MTU rework or other related change.
  - In effect it disables the workaround for VPP-1876 tests are attempting to 
apply (setting high MTU).
  - The single VPP change where regression happens: 
https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/34839
  - More details: 
https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/34839/4#message-d5d0c80dc32b1aa29a142fb48b6c132ca04ff332
  - No easy fix in sight.

- Regression in tests with l2-input graph node:
  - Cache miss introduced in https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/34568
  - More details: 
https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/34568/2#message-63e1cdafce46e7d389ffb45d79df4fb622681888
  - Revert ready: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/35164
  - Due to misunderstanding, testing the revert begun late.
  - Some trouble verifying it restores L2 performance, maybe it introduces IP6 
regression?

- Regression in NAT44ED CSP tests:
  - Caused by a refactor/fix: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/34077
  - Not much details beyond consistent performance difference.
  - No idea about fix.

Failures:

- Jumbo tests with higher encapsulation overhead:
  - Related to MTU, new default value is not high enough compared to what CSIT 
is attempting to set.
  - Also started by https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/34839
  - Also no easy fix in sight.


Older issues not discovered before::

Failures:

- Memif tests with jumbo frames:
  - Not clear yet if the cause is in VPP or in CSIT.

- IMIX tests on 3n-icx fail for hmac512sha:
  - The 570 byte component of IMIX is dropped.
  - Does not happen on 3n-skx.
  - Does not happen for aes256gcm.
  - Also present with VPP 21.10 release code (we did no have Icelake testbeds 
when doing CSIT 2110 release).
  - Cause not identified yet.

Other:

- DPDK testpmd has performance spread higher than expected.
  - Sometimes there is multi-band structure visible. 
https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1798
  - Affects also VPP vhost tests.

- Latency spikes:
  - Not deterministic, frequency is log in general.
  - ARM and AMD seems to be affected more than Intel.
