- supporting external memory in DPDK:
- - structure ``rte_memseg_list`` now has a new field indicating length
- of memory addressed by the segment list
- - structure ``rte_memseg_list`` now has a new flag indicating whether
- the memseg list refers to external memory
- - structure ``rte_malloc_heap`` now has a new field indicating socket
- ID the malloc heap belongs to
- - structure ``rte_mem_config`` has had its ``malloc_heaps`` array
- resized from ``RTE_MAX_NUMA_NODES`` to ``RTE_MAX_HEAPS`` value
- - structure ``rte_malloc_heap`` now has a ``heap_name`` member
- - structure ``rte_eal_memconfig`` has been extended to contain next
- socket ID for externally allocated segments
-
-* eal: Added ``dma_maskbits`` to ``rte_mem_config`` for keeping more restricted
- dma mask based on devices addressing limitations.
-
-* eal: The structure ``rte_device`` got a new field to reference a ``rte_bus``.
- It is changing the size of the ``struct rte_device`` and the inherited
- device structures of all buses.
