for specific offload features, where adding a static field or flag
in the mbuf is not justified.
+* **Added hairpin queue.**
+
+ On supported NICs, we can now setup haipin queue which will offload packets
+ from the wire, backto the wire.
+
* **Updated the enic driver.**
* Added support for Geneve with options offload.
* Added support for VLAN set PCP offload command.
* Added support for VLAN set VID offload command.
* Added support for matching on packets withe Geneve tunnel header.
+ * Added hairpin support.
* **Updated the AF_XDP PMD.**
* **Updated the IPSec library.**
- Added SA Database API to ``librte_ipsec``. A new test-sad application is also
- introduced to evaluate and perform custom functional and performance tests
- for IPsec SAD implementation.
+ * Added SA Database API to ``librte_ipsec``. A new test-sad application is also

+
+ * Support fragmented packets in inline crypto processing mode with fallback
+ ``lookaside-none`` session. Corresponding changes are also added in IPsec
+ Security Gateway application.
* **Introduced FIFO for NTB PMD.**
traditional l2fwd example. It demonstrates usage of poll and event mode IO
mechanism under a single application.
+* **Added build support for Link Time Optimization.**
+
+ LTO is an optimization technique used by the compiler to perform whole
+ program analysis and optimization at link time. In order to do that
+ compilers store their internal representation of the source code that
+ the linker uses at the final stage of compilation process.

Removed Items
-------------
* ethdev: changed ``rte_eth_dev_owner_delete`` return value from ``void`` to
``int`` to provide a way to report various error conditions.
+* ethdev: The deprecated function ``rte_eth_dev_count`` was removed.
+ The function ``rte_eth_dev_count_avail`` is a drop-in replacement.
+ If the intent is to iterate over ports, ``RTE_ETH_FOREACH_*`` macros
+ are better port iterators.
+
* event: The function ``rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_enqueue`` takes an additional
input as ``flags``. Flag ``RTE_EVENT_ETH_TX_ADAPTER_ENQUEUE_SAME_DEST`` which
has been introduced in this release is used when used when all the packets
align the Ethernet header on receive and all known encapsulations
preserve the alignment of the header.
+* security: The field ``replay_win_sz`` has been moved from ipsec library
+ based ``rte_ipsec_sa_prm`` structure to security library based structure
+ ``rte_security_ipsec_xform``, which specify the Anti replay window size
+ to enable sequence replay attack handling.
+
+* ipsec: The field ``replay_win_sz`` has been removed from the structure
+ ``rte_ipsec_sa_prm`` as it has been added to the security library.
