* The Macros RTE_HASH_BUCKET_ENTRIES_MAX and RTE_HASH_KEY_LENGTH_MAX are
deprecated and will be removed with version 2.2.
+* The function rte_jhash2 is deprecated and should be removed.
+
+* 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.
+
* 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
the tunnel type, TNI/VNI, inner MAC and inner VLAN are monitored.
The release 2.2 will contain these changes without backwards compatibility.
+* librte_kni: Functions based on port id are deprecated for a long time and
+ should be removed (rte_kni_create, rte_kni_get_port_id and rte_kni_info_get).
+
+* librte_pmd_ring: The deprecated functions rte_eth_ring_pair_create and
+ rte_eth_ring_pair_attach should be removed.
+
* ABI changes are planned for struct virtio_net in order to support vhost-user
multiple queues feature.
It should be integrated in release 2.2 without backward compatibility.
* The scheduler statistics structure will change to allow keeping track of
RED actions.
+* librte_acl: The structure rte_acl_ipv4vlan_rule is deprecated and should
+ be removed as well as the associated functions rte_acl_ipv4vlan_add_rules
+ and rte_acl_ipv4vlan_build.
+
* librte_cfgfile: In order to allow for longer names and values,
the value of macros CFG_NAME_LEN and CFG_NAME_VAL will be increased.
Most likely, the new values will be 64 and 256, respectively.
+
+* librte_port: Macros to access the packet meta-data stored within the
+ packet buffer will be adjusted to cover the packet mbuf structure as well,
+ as currently they are able to access any packet buffer location except the
+ packet mbuf structure.
+
+* librte_table LPM: A new parameter to hold the table name will be added to
+ the LPM table parameter structure.
+
+* librte_table: New functions for table entry bulk add/delete will be added
+ to the table operations structure.
+
+* librte_table hash: Key mask parameter will be added to the hash table
+ parameter structure for 8-byte key and 16-byte key extendible bucket and
+ LRU tables.
+
+* librte_pipeline: The prototype for the pipeline input port, output port
+ and table action handlers will be updated:
+ the pipeline parameter will be added, the packets mask parameter will be
+ either removed (for input port action handler) or made input-only.
