-* The EAL function pci_config_space_set is deprecated in release 16.04
-  and will be removed from 16.07.
-  Macros CONFIG_RTE_PCI_CONFIG, CONFIG_RTE_PCI_EXTENDED_TAG and
-  CONFIG_RTE_PCI_MAX_READ_REQUEST_SIZE will be removed.
-  The /sys entries extended_tag and max_read_request_size created by igb_uio
-  will be removed.
-
 * ABI changes are planned for struct rte_pci_id, i.e., add new field ``class``.
   This new added ``class`` field can be used to probe pci device by class
   related info. This change should impact size of struct rte_pci_id and struct
   rte_pci_device. The release 16.04 does not contain these ABI changes, but
   release 16.07 will.
 
-* The following fields have been deprecated in rte_eth_stats:
-  ibadcrc, ibadlen, imcasts, fdirmatch, fdirmiss,
-  tx_pause_xon, rx_pause_xon, tx_pause_xoff, rx_pause_xoff
-
 * The xstats API and rte_eth_xstats struct will be changed to allow retrieval
   of values without any string copies or parsing.
   No backwards compatibility is planned, as it would require code duplication

   RTE_ETH_FLOW_MAX. The release 2.2 does not contain these ABI changes,
   but release 2.3 will. [postponed]
 
-* ABI change is planned for the rte_mempool structure to allow mempool
-  cache support to be dynamic depending on the mempool being created
-  needing cache support. Saves about 1.5M of memory per rte_mempool structure
-  by removing the per lcore cache memory. Change will occur in DPDK 16.07
-  release and will skip the define RTE_NEXT_ABI in DPDK 16.04 release. The
-  code affected is app/test/test_mempool.c and librte_mempool/rte_mempool.[ch].
-  The rte_mempool.local_cache will be converted from an array to a pointer to
-  allow for dynamic allocation of the per lcore cache memory.
-
 * ABI will change for rte_mempool struct to move the cache-related fields
   to the more appropriate rte_mempool_cache struct. The mempool API is
   also changed to enable external cache management that is not tied to EAL
