and will be removed in 17.02.
It is replaced by ``rte_mempool_generic_get/put`` functions.
-* The ``rte_ivshmem`` feature (including library and EAL code) will be removed
- in 16.11 because it has some design issues which are not planned to be fixed.
-
* The vhost-cuse will be removed in 16.11. Since v2.1, a large majority of
development effort has gone to vhost-user, such as multiple-queue, live
migration, reconnect etc. Therefore, vhost-user should be used instead.
-* Driver names are quite inconsistent among each others and they will be
- renamed to something more consistent (net and crypto prefixes) in 16.11.
- Some of these driver names are used publicly, to create virtual devices,
- so a deprecation notice is necessary.
-
* API will change for ``rte_port_source_params`` and ``rte_port_sink_params``
structures. The member ``file_name`` data type will be changed from
``char *`` to ``const char *``. This change targets release 16.11.
