 * kvargs: The function ``rte_kvargs_process`` will get a new parameter

-* mbuf: The opaque ``mbuf->hash.sched`` field will be updated to support generic

-  is defined in librte_sched in a non-generic way. The new generic format
-  will contain: queue ID, traffic class, color. Field size will not change.

-* mbuf: the macro ``RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT()`` will be removed in v18.08 or later and

-* pdump: As we changed to use generic IPC, some changes in APIs and structure
-  are expected in subsequent release.
+* ethdev: Maximum and minimum MTU values vary between hardware devices. In
+  hardware agnostic DPDK applications access to such information would allow
+  a more accurate way of validating and setting supported MTU values on a per
+  device basis rather than using a defined default for all devices. To
+  resolve this, the following members will be added to ``rte_eth_dev_info``.
+  Note: these can be added to fit a hole in the existing structure for amd64
+  but not for 32-bit, as such ABI change will occur as size of the structure
+  will increase.
