    Also, make sure to start the actual text at the margin.
    =======================================================
 
+* eal: The ``rte_logs`` struct and global symbol was made private
+  and is no longer part of the API.
+
+* eal: Made the ``rte_dev_event`` structure private to the EAL as no public API
+  used it.
+
+* mem: Removed the unioned field ``phys_addr`` from
+  the structures ``rte_memseg`` and ``rte_memzone``.
+  The field ``iova`` is remaining from the old unions.
+
+* mempool: Removed the unioned fields ``phys_addr`` and ``physaddr`` from
+  the structures ``rte_mempool_memhdr`` and ``rte_mempool_objhdr``.
+  The field ``iova`` is remaining from the old unions.
+  The flag name ``MEMPOOL_F_NO_PHYS_CONTIG`` is removed,
+  while the aliased flag ``MEMPOOL_F_NO_IOVA_CONTIG`` is kept.
+
+* mbuf: Removed the functions ``rte_mbuf_data_dma_addr*``
+  and the macros ``rte_pktmbuf_mtophys*``.
+  The same functionality is still available with the functions and macros
+  having ``iova`` in their names instead of ``dma_addr`` or ``mtophys``.
+
+* mbuf: Removed the unioned field ``buf_physaddr`` from ``rte_mbuf``.
+  The field ``buf_iova`` is remaining from the old union.
+
+* mbuf: Removed the unioned field ``refcnt_atomic`` from
+  the structures ``rte_mbuf`` and ``rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info``.
+  The field ``refcnt`` is remaining from the old unions.
+
+* pci: Removed the ``rte_kernel_driver`` enum defined in rte_dev.h and
+  replaced with a private enum in the PCI subsystem.
+
+* pci: Removed the PCI resources map API from the public API
+  (``pci_map_resource`` and ``pci_unmap_resource``) and moved it to the
+  PCI bus driver along with the PCI resources lists and associated structures
+  (``pci_map``, ``pci_msix_table``, ``mapped_pci_resource`` and
+  ``mapped_pci_res_list``).
+
+* ethdev: Removed the ``kdrv`` field in the ethdev ``rte_eth_dev_data``
+  structure as it gave no useful abstracted information to the applications.
+
 * rawdev: Added a structure size parameter to the functions
   ``rte_rawdev_queue_setup()``, ``rte_rawdev_queue_conf_get()``,
   ``rte_rawdev_info_get()`` and ``rte_rawdev_configure()``,
   allowing limited driver type-checking and ABI compatibility.
 
 * rawdev: Changed the return type of the function ``rte_dev_info_get()``
+  and the function ``rte_rawdev_queue_conf_get()``
   from ``void`` to ``int`` allowing the return of error codes from drivers.
 
+* bpf: ``RTE_BPF_XTYPE_NUM`` has been dropped from ``rte_bpf_xtype``.
