+* **Added new driver for Broadcom NetXtreme-C devices.**
+
+ Added the new bnxt driver for Broadcom NetXtreme-C devices. See the
+ "Network Interface Controller Drivers" document for more details on this
+ new driver.
+
+* **Added new driver for ThunderX nicvf device.**
+
+* **Added mailbox interrupt support for ixgbe and igb VFs.**
+
+ When the physical NIC link comes up or down, the PF driver will send a
+ mailbox message to notify each VF. To handle this link up/down event,
+ support have been added for a mailbox interrupt to receive the message and
+ allow the application to register a callback for it.
+
+* **Updated the ixgbe base driver.**
+
+ The ixgbe base driver was updated with changes including the
+ following:
+
+ * Added sgmii link for X550.
+ * Added MAC link setup for X550a SFP and SFP+.
+ * Added KR support for X550em_a.
+ * Added new PHY definitions for M88E1500.
+ * Added support for the VLVF to be bypassed when adding/removing a VFTA entry.
+ * Added X550a flow control auto negotiation support.
+
+* **Updated the i40e base driver.**
+
+ Updated the i40e base driver including support for new devices IDs.
+
+* **Updated the enic driver.**
+
+ The enic driver was updated with changes including the following:
+
+ * Optimized the Tx function.
+ * Added Scattered Rx capability.
+ * Improved packet type identification.
+ * Added MTU update in non Scattered Rx mode and enabled MTU of up to 9208
+ with UCS Software release 2.2 on 1300 series VICs.
+
+* **Updated the mlx5 driver.**
+
+ The mlx5 driver was updated with changes including the following:
+
+ * Data path was refactored to bypass Verbs to improve RX and TX performance.
+ * Removed compilation parameters for inline send, ``MLX5_MAX_INLINE``, and
+ added command line parameter instead, ``txq_inline``.
+ * Improved TX scatter gather support:
+ Removed compilation parameter ``MLX5_PMD_SGE_WR_N``.
+ Scatter-gather elements is set to the maximum value the NIC supports.
+ Removed linearization logic, this decreases the memory consumption of the PMD.
+ * Improved jumbo frames support, by dynamically setting RX scatter gather elements
+ according to the MTU and mbuf size,
+ no need for compilation parameter ``MLX5_PMD_SGE_WR_N``
+
+* **Added support for virtio on IBM POWER8.**
