On Osage boards, the implementation of the ``rte_delay_us()`` function must be changed to not use the HPET timer.
**Resolution/Workaround**:
- This can be addressed by building the system with the ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBEAL_USE_HPET=n``
- configuration option or by using the ``--no-hpet`` EAL option.

+Vhost multi-queue reconnection failed with QEMU version >= 4.2.0
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+**Description**
+ It's a QEMU regression bug (bad commit: c6beefd674ff). QEMU only saves
+ acked features for one vhost-net when vhost quits. When vhost reconnects
+ to virtio-net/virtio-pmd in multi-queue situations, the features been
+ set multiple times are not consistent.
+
+**Implication**
+ Vhost cannot reconnect back to virtio-net/virtio-pmd normally.
+
+**Resolution/Workaround**:
+ It is possible to filter the incorrect acked features at vhost-user side.
