-* ring: Changes are planned to rte_ring APIs in release 17.05. Proposed
- changes include:
-
- - Removing build time options for the ring:
- CONFIG_RTE_RING_SPLIT_PROD_CONS
- CONFIG_RTE_RING_PAUSE_REP_COUNT
- - Adding an additional parameter to enqueue functions to return the
- amount of free space in the ring
- - Adding an additional parameter to dequeue functions to return the
- number of remaining elements in the ring
- - Removing direct support for watermarks in the rings, since the
- additional return value from the enqueue function makes it
- unneeded
- - Adjusting the return values of the bulk() enq/deq functions to
- make them consistent with the burst() equivalents. [Note, parameter
- to these functions are changing too, per points above, so compiler
- will flag them as needing update in legacy code]
- - Updates to some library functions e.g. rte_ring_get_memsize() to
- allow for variably-sized ring elements.
+* eal: the following functions are deprecated starting from 17.05 and will
+ be removed in 17.08:
+
+ - ``rte_set_log_level``, replaced by ``rte_log_set_global_level``
+ - ``rte_get_log_level``, replaced by ``rte_log_get_global_level``
+ - ``rte_set_log_type``, replaced by ``rte_log_set_level``
+ - ``rte_get_log_type``, replaced by ``rte_log_get_level``
