DPDK Release 17.08
|
||||
==================
|
||||
|
||||
.. **Read this first.**
|
||||
|
||||
The text in the sections below explains how to update the release notes.
|
||||
|
||||
Use proper spelling, capitalization and punctuation in all sections.
|
||||
|
||||
Variable and config names should be quoted as fixed width text:
|
||||
``LIKE_THIS``.
|
||||
|
||||
Build the docs and view the output file to ensure the changes are correct::
|
||||
|
||||
make doc-guides-html

||||

||||

New Features

||||
