* eal: The function ``rte_eal_remote_launch`` will return new error codes
after read or write error on the pipe, instead of calling ``rte_panic``.
-* eal: The ``lcore_config`` struct and global symbol will be made private to
- remove it from the externally visible ABI and allow it to be updated in the
- future.
-
* eal: both declaring and identifying devices will be streamlined in v18.11.
New functions will appear to query a specific port from buses, classes of
device and device drivers. Device declaration will be made coherent with the
negative errno values to indicate various error conditions (e.g.
invalid port ID, unsupported operation, failed operation):
- - ``rte_eth_allmulticast_enable`` and ``rte_eth_allmulticast_disable``
- ``rte_eth_dev_stop``
- ``rte_eth_dev_close``
- - ``rte_eth_macaddr_get``
- - ``rte_eth_dev_owner_delete``
* ethdev: New offload flags ``DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH`` and
``DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_FLOW_MARK`` will be added in 19.11.
