-* ethdev: The device flag advertizing hotplug capability
- ``RTE_ETH_DEV_DETACHABLE`` is not needed anymore and will be removed in
- v17.11.
- This capability is verified upon calling the relevant hotplug functions in EAL
- by checking that the ``unplug`` ops is set in the bus. This verification is
- done by the EAL and not by the ``ethdev`` layer anymore. Users relying on this
- flag being present only have to remove their checks to follow the change.
-
-* ethdev: An ABI change is planned for 17.11 for the structure rte_eth_dev_data.
- The size of the unique name will increase RTE_ETH_NAME_MAX_LEN from 32 to
- 64 characters to allow using a globally unique identifier (GUID) in this field.
-
-* ethdev: new parameters - ``rte_security_capabilities`` and
- ``rte_security_ops`` will be added to ``rte_eth_dev_info`` and
- ``rte_eth_dev`` respectively to support security operations like
- ipsec inline.
-
-* cryptodev: new parameters - ``rte_security_capabilities`` and
- ``rte_security_ops`` will be added to ``rte_cryptodev_info`` and
- ``rte_cryptodev`` respectively to support security protocol offloaded
- operations.
-
-* cryptodev: the following function is deprecated starting from 17.08 and will
- be removed in 17.11:
-
- - ``rte_cryptodev_create_vdev``
-
-* cryptodev: the following function will be static in 17.11 and included
- by all crypto drivers, therefore, will not be public:
-
- - ``rte_cryptodev_vdev_pmd_init``
-
-* cryptodev: the following function will have an extra parameter, passing a
- statically allocated crypto driver structure, instead of calling malloc,
- in 17.11:
-
- - ``rte_cryptodev_allocate_driver``
-
