+* **Updated QAT crypto PMD.**
+
+ Performance enhancements:
+
+ * Removed atomics from the internal queue pair structure.
+ * Coalesce writes to HEAD CSR on response processing.
+ * Coalesce writes to TAIL CSR on request processing.
+
+* **Updated the AESNI MB PMD.**
+
+ The AESNI MB PMD has been updated with additional support for:
+
+ * DES CBC algorithm.
+ * DES DOCSIS BPI algorithm.
+
+ This requires the IPSec Multi-buffer library 0.47. For more details,
+ check out the AESNI MB PMD documenation.
+
+* **Updated the OpenSSL PMD.**
+
+ The OpenSSL PMD has been updated with additional support for:
+
+ * DES CBC algorithm.
+
+* **Add new benchmarking mode to dpdk-test-crypto-perf application.**
+
+ Added new "PMD cyclecount" benchmark mode to dpdk-test-crypto-perf application
+ that displays more detailed breakdown of CPU cycles used by hardware
+ acceleration.
