 * security: The functions ``rte_security_set_pkt_metadata`` and
   ``rte_security_get_userdata`` will be made inline functions and additional
   flags will be added in structure ``rte_security_ctx`` in DPDK 21.11.

+* eventdev: The file ``rte_eventdev_pmd.h`` will be renamed to ``eventdev_driver.h``
+  to make the driver interface as internal and the structures ``rte_eventdev_data``,
+  ``rte_eventdev`` and ``rte_eventdevs`` will be moved to a new file named
+  ``rte_eventdev_core.h`` in DPDK 21.11.
+  The ``rte_`` prefix for internal structures and functions will be removed across the
+  library.
+  The experimental eventdev trace APIs and ``rte_event_vector_pool_create``,
+  ``rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_vector_limits_get`` will be promoted to stable.
+  An 8byte reserved field will be added to the structure ``rte_event_timer`` to
+  support future extensions.
