   Added support for sw-firmware sync for resource sharing.
   Use the PHY token, shared between sw-fw for PHY access on X550EM_a.
 
+* **Updated the i40e base driver.**
+
+  The i40e base driver was updated with changes including the
+  following:
+
+  * Use Rx control AQ commands to read/write Rx control registers.
+  * Add new X722 device IDs, and removed X710 one was never used.
+  * Expose registers for HASH/FD input set configuring.
+
 * **Enabled PCI extended tag for i40e.**
 
   It enabled extended tag by checking and writing corresponding PCI config
   space bytes, to boost the performance. In the meanwhile, it deprecated the
   legacy way via reading/writing sysfile supported by kernel module igb_uio.
 
+* **Added i40e support for setting mac addresses.**
+
+* **Added dump of i40e registers and EEPROM.**
+
 * **Supported ether type setting of single and double VLAN for i40e**
 
+* **Added VMDQ DCB mode in i40e.**
+
+  Added support for DCB in VMDQ mode to i40e driver.
+
+* **Added i40e VEB switching support.**
+
+* **Added fm10k Rx interrupt support.**
+
 * **Increased number of next hops for LPM IPv4 to 2^24.**
 
   The next_hop field is extended from 8 bits to 24 bits for IPv4.

+  Fixed issue in l3fwd-power where, on receiving packets of types
+  other than IPv4 or IPv6, the mbuf was not released, and caused
