+* The ethdev structures rte_eth_link, rte_eth_dev_info and rte_eth_conf
+  must be updated to support 100G link and to have a cleaner link speed API.
+
 * ABI changes is planned for the reta field in struct rte_eth_rss_reta_entry64
   which handles at most 256 entries (8 bits) while newer NICs support larger
   tables (512 entries).
   It should be integrated in release 2.3.
 
+* ABI changes are planned for struct rte_eth_fdir_flow in order to support
+  extend flow director's input set. The release 2.2 does not contain these ABI
+  changes, but release 2.3 will, and no backwards compatibility is planned.
+
+* ABI changes are planned for rte_eth_tunnel_filter_conf. Change the fields
+  of outer_mac and inner_mac from pointer to struct in order to keep the
+  code's readability. The release 2.2 does not contain these ABI changes, but
+  release 2.3 will, and no backwards compatibility is planned.
+
 * The scheduler statistics structure will change to allow keeping track of
   RED actions.
