* Improved multi-segment packet performance.
* Changed driver name to use the PCI address to be compatible with OVS-DPDK APIs.
* Extended statistics for physical port packet/byte counters.
- * Supported IPv4 time-to-live filter.
* Converted to the new offloads API.
* Supported device removal check operation.
* Rx/Tx descriptor status
* Link status update/event
+* **Add feature supports for live migration from vhost-net to vhost-user.**
+
+ To make live migration from vhost-net to vhost-user possible, added
+ feature supports for vhost-user. The features include:
+
+ * VIRTIO_F_ANY_LAYOUT
+ * VIRTIO_F_EVENT_IDX
+ * VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ECN, VIRTIO_NET_F_HOST_ECN
+ * VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_UFO, VIRTIO_NET_F_HOST_UFO
+ * VIRTIO_NET_F_GSO
+
+* **Added VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE feature support in virtio pmd.**
+
+ In scenario where the vhost backend doesn't have the ability to generate RARP
+ packet, the VM running virtio pmd can still be live migrated if
+ VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE feature is negotiated.
+
* **Updated the AESNI-MB PMD.**
The AESNI-MB PMD has been updated with additional support for:
* ``rte_mp_request`` is for sending a request message and will block until
it gets a reply message which is sent from the peer by ``rte_mp_reply``.
+* **Add GRO support for VxLAN-tunneled packets.**
+
+ Add GRO support for VxLAN-tunneled packets. Supported VxLAN packets
+ must contain an outer IPv4 header and inner TCP/IPv4 headers. VxLAN
+ GRO doesn't check if input packets have correct checksums and doesn't
+ update checksums for output packets. Additionally, it assumes the
+ packets are complete (i.e., MF==0 && frag_off==0), when IP
+ fragmentation is possible (i.e., DF==0).
+
+* **Increased default Rx and Tx ring size in sample applications.**
+
+ Increased the default ``RX_RING_SIZE`` and ``TX_RING_SIZE`` to 1024 entries
+ in testpmd and the sample applications to give better performance in the
+ general case. The user should experiment with various Rx and Tx ring sizes
+ for their specific application to get best performance.
+
* **Added new DPDK build system using the tools "meson" and "ninja" [EXPERIMENTAL]**
Added in support for building DPDK using ``meson`` and ``ninja``, which gives
