and the related structures (``rte_fdir_*`` and ``rte_eth_fdir_*``),
will be removed in DPDK 20.11.
-* ethdev: New offload flags ``RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_FLOW_MARK`` will be added in 19.11.
- This will allow application to enable or disable PMDs from updating
- ``rte_mbuf::hash::fdir``.
- This scheme will allow PMDs to avoid writes to ``rte_mbuf`` fields on Rx and
- thereby improve Rx performance if application wishes do so.
- In 19.11 PMDs will still update the field even when the offload is not
- enabled.
-
* ethdev: Announce moving from dedicated modify function for each field,
to using the general ``rte_flow_modify_field`` action.
