   rte_pci_device. The release 16.04 does not contain these ABI changes, but
   release 16.07 will.
 
-* The following fields have been deprecated in rte_eth_stats:
-  ibadcrc, ibadlen, imcasts, fdirmatch, fdirmiss,
-  tx_pause_xon, rx_pause_xon, tx_pause_xoff, rx_pause_xoff
-
 * The xstats API and rte_eth_xstats struct will be changed to allow retrieval
   of values without any string copies or parsing.
   No backwards compatibility is planned, as it would require code duplication

   RTE_ETH_FLOW_MAX. The release 2.2 does not contain these ABI changes,
   but release 2.3 will. [postponed]
 
-* ABI change is planned for the rte_mempool structure to allow mempool
-  cache support to be dynamic depending on the mempool being created
-  needing cache support. Saves about 1.5M of memory per rte_mempool structure
-  by removing the per lcore cache memory. Change will occur in DPDK 16.07
-  release and will skip the define RTE_NEXT_ABI in DPDK 16.04 release. The
-  code affected is app/test/test_mempool.c and librte_mempool/rte_mempool.[ch].
-  The rte_mempool.local_cache will be converted from an array to a pointer to
-  allow for dynamic allocation of the per lcore cache memory.
-
 * ABI will change for rte_mempool struct to move the cache-related fields
   to the more appropriate rte_mempool_cache struct. The mempool API is
   also changed to enable external cache management that is not tied to EAL

   functions added to facilitate the creation of mempools using an external
   handler. The 16.07 release will contain these changes.
 
-* The rte_mempool allocation will be changed in 16.07:
-  allocation of large mempool in several virtual memory chunks, new API
-  to populate a mempool, new API to free a mempool, allocation in
-  anonymous mapping, drop of specific dom0 code. These changes will
-  induce a modification of the rte_mempool structure, plus a
-  modification of the API of rte_mempool_obj_iter(), implying a breakage
-  of the ABI.
-
 * A librte_vhost public structures refactor is planned for DPDK 16.07
   that requires both ABI and API change.
   The proposed refactor would expose DPDK vhost dev to applications as
