+
* **Updated ioat rawdev driver**
The ioat rawdev driver has been updated and enhanced. Changes include:
* Extern objects and functions can be plugged into the pipeline.
* Transaction-oriented table updates.
+* **Add new AVX512 specific classify algorithms for ACL library.**
+
+ * Added new ``RTE_ACL_CLASSIFY_AVX512X16`` vector implementation,
+ which can process up to 16 flows in parallel. Requires AVX512 support.
+
Removed Items
-------------
* bpf: ``RTE_BPF_XTYPE_NUM`` has been dropped from ``rte_bpf_xtype``.
+* acl: ``RTE_ACL_CLASSIFY_NUM`` enum value has been removed.
+ This enum value was not used inside DPDK, while it prevented to add new
+ classify algorithms without causing an ABI breakage.
