Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: announce removal of ethdev flow director API
Date: Mon,  3 Aug 2020 19:49:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200803174909.3290046-1-thomas@monjalon.net> (raw)

The flow director config, part of the legacy filtering API,
was marked as deprecated last year.
A separate notice is added to make clear that these specific structs
will be removed as well in DPDK 20.11, as the rest of the legacy
filtering API.

+* ethdev: The flow director API, including ``rte_eth_conf.fdir_conf`` field,
+  and the related structures (``rte_fdir_*`` and ``rte_eth_fdir_*``),
+  will be removed in DPDK 20.11.

 * ethdev: Update API functions returning ``void`` to return ``int`` with
   negative errno values to indicate various error conditions (e.g.
   invalid port ID, unsupported operation, failed operation):
