All,

Update the test status for Intel part. Till now 80% is executed, 80% is debuged and no critical issue blocked the test.

# Basic Intel(R) NIC testing
* Build or compile:
*Build: cover the build test combination with latest GCC/Clang/ICC version and the popular OS revision such as Ubuntu20.04, CentOS Stream 8, etc.
- All passed.
*Compile: cover the CFLAGES(O0/O1/O2/O3) with popular OS such as Ubuntu20.04 and CentOS Stream 8.
- All passed.

* PF(i40e, ixgbe and igb): test scenarios including RTE_FLOW/TSO/Jumboframe/checksum offload/VLAN/VXLAN, etc.
- Execution rate: 100%, debug rate: 80%.
- 5 new bugs are found,
> 2 bugs are reported in bugzilla: https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688  & https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687
> Other bugs are about csum fwd mode can not transmit packet, i40e ddp_ gtp flow_director_filter take no effect, etc. Intel Dev. are working on them.

* VF(i40e, ixgbe and igb): test scenarios including VF-RTE_FLOW/TSO/Jumboframe/checksum offload/VLAN/VXLAN, etc.
- Execution rate: 100%, debug rate: 80%. No new issue is found except known issue.

* PF/VF(ICE): test scenarios including /Switch features/Package Management/Flow Director/Advanced Tx/Advanced RSS/ACL/DCF/Share code update/Flexible Descriptor, etc.
- Execution rate: 90%, debug rate: 70%.
- 3 new bugs are found about QinQ&DCF issues, Others are known issues.

* Intel NIC single core/NIC performance: test scenarios including PF/VF single core performance test, RFC2544 Zero packet loss performance test, etc.
- Execution rate: 70%, debug rate: 70%. 1 new issue is found about perf drops about 20% when use iavf to test multi-queue single core performance. Intel Dev. are working on them.

* Power and IPsec:
* Power: test scenarios including bi-direction/Telemetry/Empty Poll Lib/Priority Base Frequency and so on.
 - Execution rate: 100%, debug rate: 70%. 2 issues are under debugging, Intel member is working on them.
 * IPsec: Not test yet.

# Basic cryptodev and virtio testing
* Virtio: both function and performance test are covered. Such as PVP/Virtio_loopback/virtio-user loopback/virtio-net VM2VM perf testing/VMAWARE ESXI 7.0u2, etc.
- Execution rate: 80%, debug rate: 80%. No new issue is found currently, except known issue.

* Cryptodev:
*Function test: test scenarios including Cryptodev API testing/CompressDev ISA-L/QAT/ZLIB PMD Testing/FIPS, etc.
- Execution rate: 100%, debug rate: 100%. No new issue is found.
*Performance test: test scenarios including Thoughput Performance /Cryptodev Latency, etc.
- Execution rate: 50%, debug rate: 50%. No new issue is found currently.
