-* eal: a new set of mbuf mempool ops name APIs for user, platform and best
- mempool names have been defined in ``rte_mbuf`` in v18.02. The uses of
- ``rte_eal_mbuf_default_mempool_ops`` shall be replaced by
- ``rte_mbuf_best_mempool_ops``.
- The following function is deprecated since 18.05, and will be removed
- in 18.08:
-
- - ``rte_eal_mbuf_default_mempool_ops``
-
-* 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.
-
-* ethdev: a new Tx and Rx offload API was introduced on 17.11.
- In the new API, offloads are divided into per-port and per-queue offloads.
- Offloads are disabled by default and enabled per application request.
-
- In later releases the old offloading API will be deprecated, which will include:
- - removal of ``ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_NO*`` flags.
- - removal of ``txq_flags`` field from ``rte_eth_txconf`` struct.
- - removal of the offloads bit-field from ``rte_eth_rxmode`` struct.
-
-* ethdev: In v18.11 ``DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_CRC_STRIP`` offload flag will be removed, default
- behavior without any flag will be changed to CRC strip.
- To keep CRC ``DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC`` flag is required.
- ``KEEP_CRC``: Keep CRC in packet
- No flag: Strip CRC from packet
