net, crypto and event PMD's.
* Added mempool/cnxk driver which provides the support for the integrated
mempool device.
+ * Added event/cnxk driver which provides the support for integrated event
+ device.
* **Enhanced ethdev representor syntax.**
* Added conntrack item and action for stateful connection offload.
+* **Updated Amazon ENA PMD.**
+
+ The new driver version (v2.3.0) introduced bug fixes and improvements,
+ including:
+
+ * Changed memcpy mapping to the dpdk-optimized version.
+ * Updated ena_com (HAL) to the latest version.
+ * Added indication of the RSS hash presence in the mbuf.
+
* **Updated Arkville PMD driver.**
Updated Arkville net driver with new features and improvements, including:
Updated the Mellanox mlx5 driver with new features and improvements, including:
* Added support for VXLAN and NVGRE encap as sample actions.
+ * Added support for flow COUNT action handle.
* Support push VLAN on ingress traffic and pop VLAN on egress traffic in E-Switch mode.
+ * Added support for pre-defined meter policy API.
* Added support for ASO (Advanced Steering Operation) meter.
+ * Added support for ASO metering by PPS (packet per second).
+ * Added support for the monitor policy of Power Management API.
+ * Added support for connection tracking.
* **Updated NXP DPAA driver.**
* Added support for txgbevf PMD.
* Support device arguments to handle AN training for backplane NICs.
+ * Added support for VXLAN-GPE.
* **Enabled vmxnet3 PMD on Windows.**
* Added support for preferred busy polling.
+* **Added support for vhost async packed ring data path.**
+
+ Added packed ring support for async vhost.
+
* **Added support of multiple data-units in cryptodev API.**
The cryptodev library has been enhanced to allow operations on multiple
the events across multiple stages.
* This also reduced the scheduling overhead on a event device.
+* **Updated Intel DLB2 driver.**
+
+ * Added support for v2.5 device.
+
* **Added Predictable RSS functionality to the Toeplitz hash library.**
Added feature for finding collisions of the Toeplitz hash function -
* Added commands to construct conntrack context and relevant indirect
action handle creation, update for conntrack action as well as conntrack
item matching.
+ * Added commands for action meter color to color the packet to reflect
+ the meter color result.
+ ``color type (green|yellow|red)``
* **Added support for the FIB lookup method in the l3fwd example app.**
* Added support for crypto adapter forward mode in octeontx2 event and crypto
device driver.
+* **Added sub-testsuite support.**
+
+ * The unit test suite struct now supports having both a nested
+ list of sub-testsuites, and a list of testcases as before.
+
Removed Items
-------------
``policer_action_recolor_supported`` and ``policer_action_drop_supported``
have been removed.
+* vhost: The vhost library currently populates received mbufs from a virtio
+ driver with Tx offload flags while not filling Rx offload flags.
+ While this behavior is arguable, it is kept untouched.
+ A new flag ``RTE_VHOST_USER_NET_COMPLIANT_OL_FLAGS`` has been added to ask
+ for a behavior compliant with the mbuf offload API.
+
+* stack: Lock-free ``rte_stack`` no longer silently ignores push and pop when
+ it's not supported on the current platform. Instead ``rte_stack_create()``
+ fails and ``rte_errno`` is set to ``ENOTSUP``.
+
+* raw/ioat: The experimental function ``rte_ioat_completed_ops()`` now
+ supports two additional parameters, ``status`` and ``num_unsuccessful``,
+ to allow the reporting of errors from hardware when performing copy
+ operations.
