-* ethdev: Tx offloads will no longer be enabled by default in 17.11.
- 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- As part of the work, ``ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_NO*`` will be superseded as well.
+* mbuf: The opaque ``mbuf->hash.sched`` field will be updated to support generic
+ definition in line with the ethdev TM and MTR APIs. Currently, this field
+ is defined in librte_sched in a non-generic way. The new generic format
+ will contain: queue ID, traffic class, color. Field size will not change.
+
+* mbuf: the macro ``RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT()`` will be removed in v18.08 or later and
+ replaced with ``RTE_MBUF_CLONED()`` which is already added in v18.05. As
+ ``EXT_ATTACHED_MBUF`` is newly introduced in v18.05, ``RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT()``
+ can no longer be mutually exclusive with ``RTE_MBUF_DIRECT()`` if the new
+ experimental API ``rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf()`` is used. Removal of the macro
+ is to fix this semantic inconsistency.
