- ``rte_eth_dev_bypass_init``, ``rte_eth_dev_bypass_state_set``,
- ``rte_eth_dev_bypass_state_show``, ``rte_eth_dev_bypass_event_store``,
- ``rte_eth_dev_bypass_event_show``, ``rte_eth_dev_wd_timeout_store``,
- ``rte_eth_dev_bypass_wd_timeout_show``, ``rte_eth_dev_bypass_ver_show``,
- ``rte_eth_dev_bypass_wd_reset``.
-
- The following fields will be removed from ``struct eth_dev_ops``:
-
- ``bypass_init_t``, ``bypass_state_set_t``, ``bypass_state_show_t``,
- ``bypass_event_set_t``, ``bypass_event_show_t``, ``bypass_wd_timeout_set_t``,
- ``bypass_wd_timeout_show_t``, ``bypass_ver_show_t``, ``bypass_wd_reset_t``.
-
- The functions will be renamed to the following, and moved to the ``ixgbe`` PMD:
-
- ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_init``, ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_state_set``,
- ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_state_show``, ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_event_set``,
- ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_event_show``, ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_wd_timeout_set``,
- ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_wd_timeout_show``, ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_ver_show``,
- ``rte_pmd_ixgbe_bypass_wd_reset``.
-
-* 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 until 17.02 and will be removed in 17.05.
-
-* ethdev: Tx offloads will no longer be enabled by default in 17.08.
- Instead, the ``rte_eth_txmode`` structure will be extended with
- bit field to enable each Tx offload.
- Besides of making the Rx/Tx configuration API more consistent for the
- application, PMDs will be able to provide a better out of the box performance.
- As part of the work, ``ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_NO*`` will be superseded as well.
