7 * **Enhanced support for the Chelsio CXGBE driver.**
9 * Optimize forwarding performance for Chelsio T5 40GbE cards.
18 * **eal/linux: Fixed epoll timeout.**
20 Fixed issue where the ``rte_epoll_wait()`` function didn't return when the
21 underlying call to ``epoll_wait()`` timed out.
27 * **ixgbe: Fixed issue with X550 DCB.**
29 Fixed a DCB issue with x550 where for 8 TCs (Traffic Classes), if a packet
30 with user priority 6 or 7 was injected to the NIC, then the NIC would only
31 put 3 packets into the queue. There was also a similar issue for 4 TCs.
33 * **ixgbe: Removed burst size restriction of vector RX.**
35 Fixed issue where a burst size less than 32 didn't receive anything.
37 * **i40e: Fixed base driver allocation when not using first numa node.**
39 Fixed i40e issue that occurred when a DPDK application didn't initialize
40 ports if memory wasn't available on socket 0.
42 * **vhost: Fixed Qemu shutdown.**
44 Fixed issue with libvirt ``virsh destroy`` not killing the VM.
50 * **hash: Fixed memory allocation of Cuckoo Hash key table.**
52 Fixed issue where an incorrect Cuckoo Hash key table size could be
53 calculated limiting the size to 4GB.
71 * The deprecated flow director API is removed.
72 It was replaced by rte_eth_dev_filter_ctrl().
74 * The function rte_eal_pci_close_one() is removed.
75 It was replaced by rte_eal_pci_detach().
77 * The deprecated ACL API ipv4vlan is removed.
79 * The deprecated hash function rte_jhash2() is removed.
80 It was replaced by rte_jhash_32b().
82 * The deprecated KNI functions are removed:
83 rte_kni_create(), rte_kni_get_port_id() and rte_kni_info_get().
85 * The deprecated ring PMD functions are removed:
86 rte_eth_ring_pair_create() and rte_eth_ring_pair_attach().
92 * The EAL and ethdev structures rte_intr_handle and rte_eth_conf were changed
93 to support Rx interrupt. It was already done in 2.1 for CONFIG_RTE_NEXT_ABI.
95 * The ethdev flow director entries for SCTP were changed.
96 It was already done in 2.1 for CONFIG_RTE_NEXT_ABI.
98 * The mbuf structure was changed to support unified packet type.
99 It was already done in 2.1 for CONFIG_RTE_NEXT_ABI.
101 * The dummy malloc library is removed. The content was moved into EAL in 2.1.
103 * The LPM structure is changed. The deprecated field mem_location is removed.
105 * librte_table LPM: A new parameter to hold the table name will be added to
106 the LPM table parameter structure.
108 * librte_port: Macros to access the packet meta-data stored within the packet
109 buffer has been adjusted to cover the packet mbuf structure.
