   1024 queues per port. This change will be in release 2.2.
   There is no backward compatibility planned from release 2.2.
   All binaries will need to be rebuilt from release 2.2.
+
+* The Macros RTE_HASH_BUCKET_ENTRIES_MAX and RTE_HASH_KEY_LENGTH_MAX are
+  deprecated and will be removed with version 2.2.
+
+* Significant ABI changes are planned for struct rte_mbuf, struct rte_kni_mbuf,
+  and several ``PKT_RX_`` flags will be removed, to support unified packet type
+  from release 2.1. Those changes may be enabled in the upcoming release 2.1
+  with CONFIG_RTE_NEXT_ABI.
+
+* librte_malloc library has been integrated into librte_eal. The 2.1 release
+  creates a dummy/empty malloc library to fulfill binaries with dynamic linking
+  dependencies on librte_malloc.so. Such dummy library will not be created from
+  release 2.2 so binaries will need to be rebuilt.
+
+* The following fields have been deprecated in rte_eth_stats:
+  imissed, ibadcrc, ibadlen, imcasts, fdirmatch, fdirmiss,
+  tx_pause_xon, rx_pause_xon, tx_pause_xoff, rx_pause_xoff
