Corresponding changes are 218 also added in the ``ipsec-secgw`` sample application. 219 220 * ECN and DSCP field header reconstruction as per RFC4301. 221 * Transport mode with IPv6 extension headers. 222 * Support packets with multiple segments. 223 224* **Updated telemetry library for global metrics support.** 225 226 Updated ``librte_telemetry`` to fetch the global metrics from the 227 ``librte_metrics`` library. 228 229* **Added new telemetry mode for l3fwd-power application.** 230 231 Added a telemetry mode to the ``l3fwd-power`` application to report 232 application level busyness, empty and full polls of ``rte_eth_rx_burst()``. 233 234* **Updated the pdump application.** 235 236 Add support for pdump to exit with primary process. 237 238* **Updated test-compress-perf tool application.** 239 240 Added a multiple cores feature to the compression perf tool application. 241 242 243Removed Items 244------------- 245 246.. This section should contain removed items in this release. Sample format: 247 248 * Add a short 1-2 sentence description of the removed item 249 in the past tense. 250 251 This section is a comment. Do not overwrite or remove it. 252 Also, make sure to start the actual text at the margin. 253 ========================================================= 254 255* Removed KNI ethtool, ``CONFIG_RTE_KNI_KMOD_ETHTOOL``, support. 256 257* build: armv8 crypto extension is disabled. 258 259 260API Changes 261----------- 262 263.. This section should contain API changes. Sample format: 264 265 * sample: Add a short 1-2 sentence description of the API change 266 which was announced in the previous releases and made in this release. 267 Start with a scope label like "ethdev:". 268 Use fixed width quotes for ``function_names`` or ``struct_names``. 269 Use the past tense. 270 271 This section is a comment. Do not overwrite or remove it. 272 Also, make sure to start the actual text at the margin. 273 ========================================================= 274 275* The ``rte_mem_config`` structure has been made private. New accessor 276 ``rte_mcfg_*`` functions were introduced to provide replacement for direct 277 access to the shared mem config. 278 279* The network structures, definitions and functions have 280 been prefixed by ``rte_`` to resolve conflicts with libc headers. 281 282* malloc: The function ``rte_malloc_set_limit()`` was never implemented. 283 It is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. 284 285* cryptodev: the ``uint8_t *data`` member of the ``key`` structure in the xforms 286 structure (``rte_crypto_cipher_xform``, ``rte_crypto_auth_xform``, and 287 ``rte_crypto_aead_xform``) have been changed to ``const uint8_t *data``. 288 289* eventdev: No longer marked as experimental. 290 291 The eventdev functions are no longer marked as experimental, and have 292 become part of the normal DPDK API and ABI. Any future ABI changes will be 293 announced at least one release before the ABI change is made. There are no 294 ABI breaking changes planned. 295 296* ip_frag: The IP fragmentation library converts input mbuf into fragments 297 using input MTU size via the ``rte_ipv4_fragment_packet()`` interface. 298 Once fragmentation is done, each ``mbuf->ol_flags`` are set to enable IP 299 checksum H/W offload irrespective of the platform capability. 300 Cleared IP checksum H/W offload flag from the library. The application must 301 set this flag if it is supported by the platform and application wishes to 302 use it. 303 304* ip_frag: IP reassembly library converts the list of fragments into a 305 reassembled packet via ``rte_ipv4_frag_reassemble_packet()`` interface. 306 Once reassembly is done, ``mbuf->ol_flags`` are set to enable IP checksum H/W 307 offload irrespective of the platform capability. Cleared IP checksum H/W 308 offload flag from the library. The application must set this flag if it is 309 supported by the platform and application wishes to use it. 310 311* sched: Macros ``RTE_SCHED_QUEUES_PER_TRAFFIC_CLASS`` and 312 ``RTE_SCHED_PIPE_PROFILES_PER_PORT`` are removed for flexible configuration 313 of pipe traffic classes and their queues size, and for runtime configuration 314 of the maximum number of pipe profiles, respectively. In addition, the 315 ``wrr_weights`` field of struct ``rte_sched_pipe_params`` is modified to be 316 used only for best-effort tc, and the ``qsize`` field of struct 317 ``rte_sched_port_params`` is changed to allow different sizes for each 318 queue. 319 320 321ABI Changes 322----------- 323 324.. This section should contain ABI changes. Sample format: 325 326 * sample: Add a short 1-2 sentence description of the ABI change 327 which was announced in the previous releases and made in this release. 328 Start with a scope label like "ethdev:". 329 Use fixed width quotes for ``function_names`` or ``struct_names``. 330 Use the past tense. 331 332 This section is a comment. Do not overwrite or remove it. 333 Also, make sure to start the actual text at the margin. 334 ========================================================= 335 336* eventdev: Event based Rx adapter callback 337 338 The mbuf pointer array in the event eth Rx adapter callback 339 has been replaced with an event array. Using 340 an event array allows the application to change attributes 341 of the events enqueued by the SW adapter. 342 343 The callback can drop packets and populate 344 a callback argument with the number of dropped packets. 345 Add a Rx adapter stats field to keep track of the total 346 number of dropped packets. 347 348* cryptodev: New member in ``rte_cryptodev_config`` to allow applications to 349 disable features supported by the crypto device. Only the following features 350 would be allowed to be disabled this way, 351 352 - ``RTE_CRYPTODEV_FF_SYMMETRIC_CRYPTO``. 353 - ``RTE_CRYPTODEV_FF_ASYMMETRIC_CRYPTO``. 354 - ``RTE_CRYPTODEV_FF_SECURITY``. 355 356 Disabling unused features would facilitate efficient usage of HW/SW offload. 357 358* bbdev: New operations and parameters have been added to support new 5GNR 359 operations. The bbdev ABI is still kept experimental. 360 361* rawdev: The driver names have been changed to ``librte_rawdev_*``. 362 Now they all have the same prefix, and same name with make and meson builds. 363 364 365Shared Library Versions 366----------------------- 367 368..
