There is no backward compatibility planned from release 2.2.
All binaries will need to be rebuilt from release 2.2.
-* The EAL function rte_eal_pci_close_one is deprecated because renamed to
- rte_eal_pci_detach.
-
* The Macros RTE_HASH_BUCKET_ENTRIES_MAX and RTE_HASH_KEY_LENGTH_MAX are
deprecated and will be removed with version 2.2.
* The field mem_location of the rte_lpm structure is deprecated and should be
removed as well as the macros RTE_LPM_HEAP and RTE_LPM_MEMZONE.
-* 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
