-* The rte_mempool struct will be changed in 16.07 to facilitate the new
- external mempool manager functionality.
- The ring element will be replaced with a more generic 'pool' opaque pointer
- to allow new mempool handlers to use their own user-defined mempool
- layout. Also newly added to rte_mempool is a handler index.
- The existing API will be backward compatible, but there will be new API
- functions added to facilitate the creation of mempools using an external
- handler. The 16.07 release will contain these changes.
-
-* The rte_mempool allocation will be changed in 16.07:
- allocation of large mempool in several virtual memory chunks, new API
- to populate a mempool, new API to free a mempool, allocation in
- anonymous mapping, drop of specific dom0 code. These changes will
- induce a modification of the rte_mempool structure, plus a
- modification of the API of rte_mempool_obj_iter(), implying a breakage
- of the ABI.
-
-* ABI changes are planned for struct rte_port_source_params in order to
- support PCAP file reading feature. The release 16.04 contains this ABI
- change wrapped by RTE_NEXT_ABI macro. Release 16.07 will contain this
- change, and no backwards compatibility is planned.
+* The mbuf flags PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT are deprecated and
+ are respectively replaced by PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED and
+ PKT_RX_QINQ_STRIPPED, that are better described. The old flags and
+ their behavior will be kept in 16.07 and will be removed in 16.11.
