   This may break TF on older CPUs.
 
-## Known Bugs
-* Using XLA:GPU with CUDA 9 and CUDA 9.1 results in garbage results and/or
-  `CUDA_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS` failures.
-
-  Google discovered in mid-December 2017 that the PTX-to-SASS compiler in CUDA 9
-  and CUDA 9.1 sometimes does not properly compute the carry bit when
-  decomposing 64-bit address calculations with large offsets (e.g. `load [x +
-  large_constant]`) into 32-bit arithmetic in SASS.
-
-  As a result, these versions of `ptxas` miscompile most XLA programs which use
-  more than 4GB of temp memory.  This results in garbage results and/or
-  `CUDA_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS` failures.
-
-  A fix in CUDA 9.1.121 is expected in late February 2018.  We do not expect a
-  fix for CUDA 9.0.x.  Until the fix is available, the only workaround is to
-  [downgrade](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit-archive) to CUDA 8.0.x
-  or disable XLA:GPU.
-
-  TensorFlow will print a warning if you use XLA:GPU with a known-bad version of
-  CUDA; see e00ba24c4038e7644da417ddc639169b6ea59122.
