+
+* **Updated the Intel e1000 driver.**
+
+ Added support for the ``RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE`` flag.
+
+* **Updated the Intel ixgbe driver.**
+
+ Added support for the ``RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE`` flag.
+
+* **Updated the Intel i40e driver.**

+ Added support for the ``RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE`` flag.
+
+* **Updated the Intel ice driver.**
+
+ Updated the Intel ice driver with new features and improvements, including:
+
+ * Added support for device-specific DDP package loading.
+ * Added support for handling Receive Flex Descriptor.
+ * Added support for protocol extraction on per Rx queue.
+ * Added support for the ``RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE`` flag.
+
+* **Added cryptodev asymmetric session-less operation.**
+
+ Added session-less option to cryptodev asymmetric structure. It works the same
+ way as symmetric crypto, corresponding xform is used directly by the crypto op.
+
* **Added Marvell NITROX symmetric crypto PMD.**

+ Supports RSA and modexp operations.
+
* **Updated NXP crypto PMDs for PDCP support.**
PDCP support is added to DPAA_SEC and DPAA2_SEC PMDs using rte_security APIs.
Added stateful decompression support in the Intel QuickAssist Technology PMD.
Please note that stateful compression is not supported.
+* **Added external buffers support for dpdk-test-compress-perf tool.**
+
+ Added a command line option to dpdk-test-compress-perf tool to allocate
+ and use memory zones as external buffers instead of keeping the data directly
+ in mbuf areas.
+
+* **Introduced FIFO for NTB PMD.**
+
+ Introduced FIFO for NTB (Non-transparent Bridge) PMD to support
+ packet based processing.
+
+* **Added eBPF JIT support for arm64.**
