56 =======================================================
58 * **Added write combining store APIs.**
60 Added ``rte_write32_wc`` and ``rte_write32_wc_relaxed`` APIs
61 that enable write combining stores (depending on architecture).
62 The functions are provided as a generic stubs and
63 x86 specific implementation.
65 * **Added prefetch with intention to write APIs.**
67 Added new prefetch function variants e.g. ``rte_prefetch0_write``,
68 which allow the programmer to prefetch a cache line and also indicate
69 the intention to write.
71 * **Added the rte_cldemote API.**
73 Added a hardware hint CLDEMOTE, which is similar to prefetch in reverse.
74 CLDEMOTE moves the cache line to the more remote cache, where it expects
75 sharing to be efficient. Moving the cache line to a level more distant from
76 the processor helps to accelerate core-to-core communication.
77 This API is specific to x86 and implemented as a stub for other
80 * **Added support for limiting maximum SIMD bitwidth.**
82 Added a new EAL config setting ``max_simd_bitwidth`` to limit the vector
83 path selection at runtime. This value can be set by apps using the
84 ``rte_vect_set_max_simd_bitwidth`` function, or by the user with EAL flag
85 ``--force-max-simd-bitwidth``.
87 * **Added zero copy APIs for rte_ring.**
89 For rings with producer/consumer in ``RTE_RING_SYNC_ST``, ``RTE_RING_SYNC_MT_HTS``
90 modes, these APIs split enqueue/dequeue operation into three phases
91 (enqueue/dequeue start, copy data to/from ring, enqueue/dequeue finish).
92 Along with the advantages of the peek APIs, these provide the ability to
93 copy the data to the ring memory directly without the need for temporary
96 * **Updated CRC modules of the net library.**
98 * Added runtime selection of the optimal architecture-specific CRC path.
99 * Added optimized implementations of CRC32-Ethernet and CRC16-CCITT
100 using the AVX512 and VPCLMULQDQ instruction sets.
102 * **Introduced extended buffer description for receiving.**
104 Added the extended Rx buffer description for Rx queue setup routine
105 providing the individual settings for each Rx segment with maximal size,
106 buffer offset and memory pool to allocate data buffers from.

110 Added the FEC API which provides functions for query FEC capabilities and
111 current FEC mode from device. Also, API for configuring FEC mode is also provided.
113 * **Added thread safety to rte_flow functions.**
115 Added ``RTE_ETH_DEV_FLOW_OPS_THREAD_SAFE`` device flag to indicate
116 whether PMD supports thread safe operations. If PMD doesn't set the flag,
117 rte_flow API level functions will protect the flow operations with mutex.
119 * **Added flow-based traffic sampling support.**
121 Added new action: ``RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SAMPLE`` to duplicate the matching
122 packets with specified ratio, and apply with own set of actions with a fate
123 action. When the ratio is set to 1 then the packets will be 100% mirrored.
125 * **Added support of shared action in flow API.**
127 Added shared action support to utilize single flow action in multiple flow
128 rules. An update of shared action configuration alters the behavior of all
131 * Added new action: ``RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED`` to use shared action
133 * Added new flow APIs to create/update/destroy/query shared action.
135 * **Flow rules allowed to use private PMD items / actions.**
137 * Flow rule verification was updated to accept private PMD
140 * **Added generic API to offload tunneled traffic and restore missed packet.**
142 * Added a new hardware independent helper to flow API that
143 offloads tunneled traffic and restores missed packets.
145 * **Updated the ethdev library to support hairpin between two ports.**
147 New APIs are introduced to support binding / unbinding 2 ports hairpin.
148 Hairpin Tx part flow rules can be inserted explicitly.
149 New API is added to get the hairpin peer ports list.

321 they are limited to copy operations only.
322 [Note: The old API is still provided but marked as deprecated in the code]
323 * Added a new API ``rte_ioat_fence()`` to add a fence between operations.
324 This API replaces the ``fence`` flag parameter in the ``rte_ioat_enqueue_copies()`` function,
325 and is clearer as there is no ambiguity as to whether the flag should be
326 set on the last operation before the fence or the first operation after it.

466 replaced with a private enum in the PCI subsystem.
468 * pci: Removed the PCI resources map API from the public API
469 (``pci_map_resource`` and ``pci_unmap_resource``) and moved it to the
470 PCI bus driver along with the PCI resources lists and associated structures
471 (``pci_map``, ``pci_msix_table``, ``mapped_pci_resource`` and
472 ``mapped_pci_res_list``).
474 * ethdev: Removed the ``kdrv`` field in the ethdev ``rte_eth_dev_data``
475 structure as it gave no useful abstracted information to the applications.
477 * ethdev: ``rte_eth_rx_descriptor_done()`` API has been deprecated.
479 * ethdev: Renamed basic statistics per queue. An underscore is inserted
480 between the queue number and the rest of the xstat name:

499 As the data of ``uint8_t`` will be truncated when queue number under
500 a TC is greater than 256.
502 * vhost: Moved vDPA APIs from experimental to stable.
504 * vhost: Add a new function ``rte_vhost_crypto_driver_start`` to be called
505 instead of ``rte_vhost_driver_start`` by crypto applications.
507 * cryptodev: The structure ``rte_crypto_sym_vec`` is updated to support both
508 cpu_crypto synchrounous operation and asynchronous raw data-path APIs.
510 * cryptodev: ``RTE_CRYPTO_AEAD_LIST_END`` from ``enum rte_crypto_aead_algorithm``,
511 ``RTE_CRYPTO_CIPHER_LIST_END`` from ``enum rte_crypto_cipher_algorithm`` and
512 ``RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_LIST_END`` from ``enum rte_crypto_auth_algorithm``
513 are removed to avoid future ABI breakage while adding new algorithms.
515 * scheduler: Renamed functions ``rte_cryptodev_scheduler_slave_attach``,
516 ``rte_cryptodev_scheduler_slave_detach`` and
517 ``rte_cryptodev_scheduler_slaves_get`` to
518 ``rte_cryptodev_scheduler_worker_attach``,
519 ``rte_cryptodev_scheduler_worker_detach`` and
520 ``rte_cryptodev_scheduler_workers_get`` accordingly.
522 * scheduler: Renamed the configuration value
523 ``RTE_CRYPTODEV_SCHEDULER_MAX_NB_SLAVES`` to
524 ``RTE_CRYPTODEV_SCHEDULER_MAX_NB_WORKERS``.
526 * security: ``hfn_ovrd`` field in ``rte_security_pdcp_xform`` is changed from
527 ``uint32_t`` to ``uint8_t`` so that a new field ``sdap_enabled`` can be added
530 * security: The API ``rte_security_session_create`` is updated to take two
531 mempool objects one for session and other for session private data.
532 So the application need to create two mempools and get the size of session
533 private data using API ``rte_security_session_get_size`` for private session
536 * ipsec: ``RTE_SATP_LOG2_NUM`` has been dropped from ``enum`` and
537 subsequently moved ``rte_ipsec`` lib from experimental to stable.
539 * baseband/fpga_lte_fec: Renamed function ``fpga_lte_fec_configure`` to
540 ``rte_fpga_lte_fec_configure`` and structure ``fpga_lte_fec_conf`` to
541 ``rte_fpga_lte_fec_conf``.
543 * baseband/fpga_5gnr_fec: Renamed function ``fpga_5gnr_fec_configure`` to
544 ``rte_fpga_5gnr_fec_configure`` and structure ``fpga_5gnr_fec_conf`` to
545 ``rte_fpga_5gnr_fec_conf``.
547 * rawdev: Added a structure size parameter to the functions
548 ``rte_rawdev_queue_setup()``, ``rte_rawdev_queue_conf_get()``,
549 ``rte_rawdev_info_get()`` and ``rte_rawdev_configure()``,
550 allowing limited driver type-checking and ABI compatibility.
552 * rawdev: Changed the return type of the function ``rte_dev_info_get()``
553 and the function ``rte_rawdev_queue_conf_get()``
554 from ``void`` to ``int`` allowing the return of error codes from drivers.
556 * rawdev: The running of a drivers ``selftest()`` function can now be done
557 using the ``rawdev_autotest`` command in the ``dpdk-test`` binary. This
558 command now calls the self-test function for each rawdev found on the
559 system, and does not require a specific command per device type.
560 Following this change, the ``ioat_rawdev_autotest`` command has been
561 removed as no longer needed.
563 * raw/ioat: As noted above, the ``rte_ioat_do_copies()`` and
564 ``rte_ioat_completed_copies()`` functions have been renamed to
565 ``rte_ioat_perform_ops()`` and ``rte_ioat_completed_ops()`` respectively.
567 * stack: the experimental tag has been dropped from the stack library, and its
568 interfaces are considered stable as of DPDK 20.11.
570 * bpf: ``RTE_BPF_XTYPE_NUM`` has been dropped from ``rte_bpf_xtype``.
572 * acl: ``RTE_ACL_CLASSIFY_NUM`` enum value has been removed.
573 This enum value was not used inside DPDK, while it prevented to add new
574 classify algorithms without causing an ABI breakage.
576 * sched: Added ``subport_profile_id`` as argument
577 to function ``rte_sched_subport_config``.
579 * sched: Removed ``tb_rate``, ``tc_rate``, ``tc_period`` and ``tb_size``
580 from ``struct rte_sched_subport_params``.
586 .. This section should contain ABI changes. Sample format:
588 * sample: Add a short 1-2 sentence description of the ABI change
589 which was announced in the previous releases and made in this release.
590 Start with a scope label like "ethdev:".
591 Use fixed width quotes for ``function_names`` or ``struct_names``.
594 This section is a comment. Do not overwrite or remove it.
595 Also, make sure to start the actual text at the margin.
596 =======================================================
598 * eal: Removed the not implemented function ``rte_dump_registers()``.

611 which was already internal data structure.
613 * ``ethdev`` internal functions are marked with ``__rte_internal`` tag.
615 * Added extensions' attributes to struct ``rte_flow_item_ipv6``.
616 A set of additional values added to struct, indicating the existence of
617 every defined extension header type.
618 Applications should use the new values for identification of existing
619 extensions in the packet header.
621 * Added fields ``rx_seg`` and ``rx_nseg`` to ``rte_eth_rxconf`` structure
622 to provide extended description of the receiving buffer.
