   All binaries will need to be rebuilt from release 2.2.
 

-* ABI changes are planned for struct rte_intr_handle, struct rte_eth_conf
-  and struct eth_dev_ops to support interrupt mode feature from release 2.1.
-  Those changes may be enabled in the release 2.1 with CONFIG_RTE_NEXT_ABI.
-
-* The EAL function rte_eal_pci_close_one is deprecated because renamed to
-  rte_eal_pci_detach.

 * The Macros RTE_HASH_BUCKET_ENTRIES_MAX and RTE_HASH_KEY_LENGTH_MAX are
   deprecated and will be removed with version 2.2.

-* Significant ABI changes are planned for struct rte_mbuf, struct rte_kni_mbuf,
-  and several ``PKT_RX_`` flags will be removed, to support unified packet type
-  from release 2.1. Those changes may be enabled in the upcoming release 2.1
-  with CONFIG_RTE_NEXT_ABI.
+* The function rte_jhash2 is deprecated and should be removed.

 
 

-* librte_malloc library has been integrated into librte_eal. The 2.1 release
-  creates a dummy/empty malloc library to fulfill binaries with dynamic linking
-  dependencies on librte_malloc.so. Such dummy library will not be created from
-  release 2.2 so binaries will need to be rebuilt.
+* The field mem_location of the rte_lpm structure is deprecated and should be
+  removed as well as the macros RTE_LPM_HEAP and RTE_LPM_MEMZONE.

 
 * The following fields have been deprecated in rte_eth_stats:
