representing sub-domains of functionality. Each auxiliary device
represents a part of its parent functionality.
+* **Added XZ compressed firmware support.**
+
+ Using ``rte_firmware_read``, a driver can now handle XZ compressed firmware
+ in a transparent way, with EAL uncompressing using libarchive if this library
+ is available when building DPDK.
+
+* **Updated Amazon ENA PMD.**
+
+ The new driver version (v2.4.0) introduced bug fixes and improvements,
+ including:
+
+ * Added Rx interrupt support.
+ * RSS hash function key reconfiguration support.
+
+* **Updated Intel iavf driver.**
+
+ * Added Tx QoS VF queue TC mapping.
+ * Added FDIR and RSS for GTPoGRE, support filter based on GTPU TEID/QFI,
+ outer most L3 or inner most l3/l4.
+
* **Updated Intel ice driver.**
* In AVX2 code, added the new RX and TX paths to use the HW offload
features. When the HW offload features are configured to be used, the
offload paths are chosen automatically. In parallel the support for HW
offload features was removed from the legacy AVX2 paths.
+ * Added Tx QoS TC bandwidth configuration in DCF.
* **Added support for Marvell CN10K SoC ethernet device.**
* Added net/cnxk driver which provides the support for the integrated ethernet
device.
+* **Updated Mellanox mlx5 driver.**
+
+ * Added Sub-Function support based on auxiliary bus.
+ * Added support for meter hierarchy.
+ * Added support for metering policy actions of yellow color.
+ * Added support for metering trTCM RFC2698 and RFC4115.
+ * Added devargs options ``allow_duplicate_pattern``.
+ * Added matching on IPv4 Internet Header Length (IHL).
+ * Added support for matching on VXLAN header last 8-bits reserved field.
+ * Optimized multi-thread flow rule insertion rate.
+
+* **Added Wangxun ngbe PMD.**
+
+ Added a new PMD driver for Wangxun 1 Gigabit Ethernet NICs.
+ See the :doc:`../nics/ngbe` for more details.
+
+* **Updated Solarflare network PMD.**
+
+ Updated the Solarflare ``sfc_efx`` driver with changes including:
+
+ * Added COUNT action support for SN1000 NICs
+
+* **Added inflight packets clear API in vhost library.**
+
+ Added an API which can clear the inflight packets submitted to DMA
+ engine in vhost async data path.
+
+* **Updated Intel QuickAssist crypto PMD.**
+
+ Added fourth generation of QuickAssist Technology(QAT) devices support.
+ Only symmetric crypto has been currently enabled, compression and asymmetric
+ crypto PMD will fail to create.
+
+* **Added support for Marvell CNXK crypto driver.**
+
+ * Added cnxk crypto PMD which provides support for an integrated
+ crypto driver for CN9K and CN10K series of SOCs. Support for
+ symmetric crypto algorithms is added to both the PMDs.
+ * Added support for lookaside protocol (IPsec) offload in cn10k PMD.
+ * Added support for asymmetric crypto operations in cn9k and cn10k PMD.
+
+* **Updated Marvell OCTEON TX crypto PMD.**
+
+ Added support for crypto adapter OP_FORWARD mode.
+
+* **Added support for Nvidia crypto device driver.**
+
+ Added mlx5 crypto driver to support AES-XTS cipher operations.
+ The first device to support it is ConnectX-6.
+
+* **Updated ISAL compress device PMD.**
+
+ The ISAL compress device PMD now supports Arm platforms.
+
* **Added Baseband PHY CNXK PMD.**
Added Baseband PHY PMD which allows to configure BPHY hardware block
comprising accelerators and DSPs specifically tailored for 5G/LTE inline
- usecases. Configuration happens via standard rawdev enq/deq operations. See
+ use cases. Configuration happens via standard rawdev enq/deq operations. See
the :doc:`../rawdevs/cnxk_bphy` rawdev guide for more details on this driver.
+* **Added support for Marvell CN10K, CN9K, event Rx/Tx adapter.**
+
+ * Added Rx/Tx adapter support for event/cnxk when the ethernet device requested
+ is net/cnxk.
+ * Added support for event vectorization for Rx/Tx adapter.
+
+* **Added cppc_cpufreq support to Power Management library.**
+
+ Added support for cppc_cpufreq driver which works on most arm64 platforms.
+
+* **Added multi-queue support to Ethernet PMD Power Management**
+
+ The experimental PMD power management API now supports managing
+ multiple Ethernet Rx queues per lcore.
+
+* **Updated testpmd to log errors to stderr.**
+
+ Updated testpmd application to log errors and warnings to stderr
+ instead of stdout used before.
+
Removed Items
-------------
* eal: ``rte_strscpy`` sets ``rte_errno`` to ``E2BIG`` in case of string
truncation.
+* eal: ``rte_bsf32_safe`` now takes a 32-bit value for its first argument.
+ This fixes warnings about loss of precision
+ when used with some compilers settings.
+
+* eal: ``rte_power_monitor`` and the ``rte_power_monitor_cond`` struct changed
+ to use a callback mechanism.
+
+* rte_power: The experimental PMD power management API is no longer considered
+ to be thread safe; all Rx queues affected by the API will now need to be
+ stopped before making any changes to the power management scheme.
