 * The following fields have been deprecated in rte_eth_stats:
   imissed, ibadcrc, ibadlen, imcasts, fdirmatch, fdirmiss,
   tx_pause_xon, rx_pause_xon, tx_pause_xoff, rx_pause_xoff

+* The ABI changes are planned for struct rte_intr_handle, struct rte_eth_conf
+  and struct eth_dev_ops in order to support interrupt mode feature.
+  The upcoming release 2.1 will not contain these ABI changes by default.
+  This change will be in release 2.2. There's no backwards compatibility planed
+  due to the additional interrupt mode feature enabling.
+  Binaries using this library build prior to version 2.2 will require updating
+  and recompilation.
