+
+  The BPF Library provides the ability to load and execute

+* ethdev: changes to offload API
+
+   A pure per-port offloading isn't requested to be repeated in [rt]x_conf->offloads to
+   ``rte_eth_[rt]x_queue_setup()``. Now any offloading enabled in ``rte_eth_dev_configure()``
+   can't be disabled by ``rte_eth_[rt]x_queue_setup()``. Any new added offloading which has
+   not been enabled in ``rte_eth_dev_configure()`` and is requested to be enabled in
+   ``rte_eth_[rt]x_queue_setup()`` must be per-queue type, otherwise trigger an error log.

+* ethdev: runtime queue setup:
+
+  ``rte_eth_rx_queue_setup`` and ``rte_eth_tx_queue_setup`` can be called after
+  ``rte_eth_dev_start`` if device support runtime queue setup. Device driver can
+  expose this capability through ``rte_eth_dev_info_get``. A Rx or Tx queue be
+  setup at runtime need to be started explicitly by ``rte_eth_dev_rx_queue_start``
