-* The following fields have been deprecated in rte_eth_stats:
- ibadcrc, ibadlen, imcasts, fdirmatch, fdirmiss,
- tx_pause_xon, rx_pause_xon, tx_pause_xoff, rx_pause_xoff
-
-* ABI changes is planned for the reta field in struct rte_eth_rss_reta_entry64
- which handles at most 256 entries (8 bits) while newer NICs support larger
- tables (512 entries).
- It should be integrated in release 2.3.
-
-* ABI changes are planned for struct rte_eth_fdir_flow in order to support
- extend flow director's input set. The release 2.2 does not contain these ABI
- changes, but release 2.3 will, and no backwards compatibility is planned.
-
-* The scheduler statistics structure will change to allow keeping track of
- RED actions.
-
-* librte_pipeline: The prototype for the pipeline input port, output port
- and table action handlers will be updated:
- the pipeline parameter will be added, the packets mask parameter will be
- either removed (for input port action handler) or made input-only.
-
-* ABI changes are planned in cmdline buffer size to allow the use of long
- commands (such as RETA update in testpmd). This should impact
- CMDLINE_PARSE_RESULT_BUFSIZE, STR_TOKEN_SIZE and RDLINE_BUF_SIZE.
- It should be integrated in release 2.3.
+* The log history is deprecated.
+ It is voided in 16.07 and will be removed in release 16.11.
+
+* The ethdev hotplug API is going to be moved to EAL with a notification
+ mechanism added to crypto and ethdev libraries so that hotplug is now
+ available to both of them. This API will be stripped of the device arguments
+ so that it only cares about hotplugging.
+
+* Structures embodying pci and vdev devices are going to be reworked to
+ integrate new common rte_device / rte_driver objects (see
+ http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2016-January/031390.html).
+ ethdev and crypto libraries will then only handle those objects so that they
+ do not need to care about the kind of devices that are being used, making it
+ easier to add new buses later.
+
+* ABI changes are planned for adding four new flow types. This impacts
+ RTE_ETH_FLOW_MAX. The release 2.2 does not contain these ABI changes,
+ but release 2.3 will. [postponed]
+
+* 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 in 16.07 and will be removed in 16.11.
+
+* The APIs rte_mempool_count and rte_mempool_free_count are being deprecated
+ on the basis that they are confusing to use - free_count actually returns
+ the number of allocated entries, not the number of free entries as expected.
+ They are being replaced by rte_mempool_avail_count and
+ rte_mempool_in_use_count respectively.
+
+* The mempool functions for single/multi producer/consumer are deprecated and
+ will be removed in 16.11.
+ It is replaced by rte_mempool_generic_get/put functions.
