* cryptodev: The interface between library and drivers will be marked
as internal 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 8-byte reserved field will be added to the structure ``rte_event_timer`` to
support future extensions.
* eventdev: The structure ``rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_queue_conf`` will be
extended to include ``rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_event_vector_config`` elements
and the function ``rte_event_eth_rx_adapter_queue_event_vector_config`` will
