+* **Added generic EAL API for I/O device memory read/write operations.**
+
+ This API introduces 8-bit, 16-bit, 32bit, 64bit I/O device
+ memory read/write operations along with the relaxed versions.
+
+ The weakly-ordered machine like ARM needs additional I/O barrier for
+ device memory read/write access over PCI bus.
+ By introducing the EAL abstraction for I/O device memory read/write access,
+ The drivers can access I/O device memory in architecture-agnostic manner.
+ The relaxed version does not have additional I/O memory barrier, useful in
+ accessing the device registers of integrated controllers which
+ implicitly strongly ordered with respect to memory access.
+
* **Added generic flow API (rte_flow).**
This API provides a generic means to configure hardware to match specific
See the :ref:`Virtio Interrupt Mode <virtio_interrupt_mode>` documentation
for more information.
+* **Added ARMv8 crypto PMD.**
+
+ A new crypto PMD has been added, which provides combined mode cryptografic
+ operations optimized for ARMv8 processors. The driver can be used to enhance
+ performance in processing chained operations such as cipher + HMAC.
+
* **Updated the QAT PMD.**
The QAT PMD was updated with additional support for:
AESNI MB PMD has been moved to a new repository, in GitHub.
* Support for single operations (cipher only and authentication only).
+* **Updated the AES-NI GCM PMD.**
+
+ The AES-NI GCM PMD was migrated from MB library to ISA-L library.
+ The migration entailed the following additional support for:
+
+ * GMAC algorithm.
+ * 256-bit cipher key.
+ * Session-less mode.
+ * Out-of place processing
+ * Scatter-gatter support for chained mbufs (only out-of place and destination
+ mbuf must be contiguous)
+
+* **Added crypto performance test application.**
+
+ A new performance test application allows measuring performance parameters
+ of PMDs available in crypto tree.
+
* **Added Elastic Flow Distributor library (rte_efd).**
This new library uses perfect hashing to determine a target/value for a
