The release notes comments mention how to generate the documentation
with the old & removed build system.
Rather than fixing these comments, all old release notes comments
are removed, because they are useful only for the current release.

The admin-configured vNIC settings (i.e. via CIMC or UCSM) now include
Geneve offload. Use that setting to decide whether to enable or
disable Geneve offload and remove the devarg 'geneve-opt'.
Also, the firmware now allows the driver to change the Geneve port
number. So extend udp_tunnel_port_{add,del} to accept Geneve port, in
addition to VXLAN.

This patch adds to MLX5 PMD the support of matching on
GTP header item v_pt_rsv_flags.
This item is contained in 1 byte of the format:
-------------------------------------------
| bit | 0 - 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
|-----------------------------------------|
| value | Version | PT | Res | E | S | PN |
-------------------------------------------
Matching is supported only for GTP flags E, S, PN.
Therefore values 0 to 7 are supported.
Mask must be set accordingly:
... gtp v_pt_rsv_flags is 1 v_pt_rsv_flags mask 0x07 ...

In existing implementation, using wild card VLAN item is not allowed.

This obligation contradict the flow API specification [1].
This patch updates the VLAN item validation and translation, to allow

One new cmdline option `--rx-mq-mode` is added in order to have the
possibility to check whether PMD handle the mq mode correctly or not.
The reason is some NICs need to do different settings based on different
RX mq mode, i.e RSS or not.
With this support in testpmd, the above scenario can be tested easily.

Currently, there is no flow aging check and age-out event callback
mechanism for mlx5 driver, this patch implements it. It's included:
- Splitting the current counter container to aged or no-aged container
since reducing memory consumption. Aged container will allocate extra
memory to save the aging parameter from user configuration.
- Aging check and age-out event callback mechanism based on current
counter. When a flow be checked aged-out, RTE_ETH_EVENT_FLOW_AGED
event will be triggered to applications.
- Implement the new API: rte_flow_get_aged_flows, applications can use
this API to get aged flows.

One of the reasons to destroy a flow is the fact that no packet matches
the flow for "timeout" time.
For example, when TCP\UDP sessions are suddenly closed.
Currently, there is not any DPDK mechanism for flow aging and the
applications use their own ways to detect and destroy aged-out flows.
The flow aging implementation need include:
- A new rte_flow action: RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_AGE to set the timeout and
the application flow context for each flow.
- A new ethdev event: RTE_ETH_EVENT_FLOW_AGED for the driver to report
that there are new aged-out flows.
- A new rte_flow API: rte_flow_get_aged_flows to get the aged-out flows
contexts from the port.
- Support input flow aging command line in Testpmd.
The new event type addition in the enum is flagged as an ABI breakage,
so an ignore rule is added for these reasons:
- It is not changing value of existing types (except MAX)
- The new value is not used by existing API if the event is not
registered
In general, it is safe adding new ethdev event types at the end of the
enum, because of event callback registration mechanism.

This patch allows to display flow stats in extended stats.
To do this, DMA-able memory is registered with the FW during device
initialization. Then the driver uses an alarm thread to query the
per flow stats using the HWRM_CFA_COUNTER_QSTATS HWRM command at
regular intervals and stores it locally which will be displayed
when the application queries the xstats.
The DMA-able memory is unregistered during driver cleanup.
This functionality can be enabled using the flow-xstat devarg and
will be disabled by default. The intention behind this is to allow
stats to be displayed for all the flows in one shot instead of
querying one at a time.

ENA device can report in the AENQ handler amount of Tx packets that were
dropped and not sent.
This statistic is showing global value for the device and because
rte_eth_stats is missing field that could indicate this value (it
isn't the Tx error), it is being presented as a extended statistic.
As the current design of extended statistics prevents tx_drops from
being an atomic variable and both tx_drops and rx_drops are only updated
from the AENQ handler, both were set as non-atomic for the alignment.

Default LLQ (Low-latency queue) maximum header size is 96 bytes and can
be too small for some types of packets - like IPv6 packets with multiple
extension. This can be fixed, by using large LLQ headers.
If the device supports larger LLQ headers, the user can activate them by
using device argument 'large_llq_hdr' with value '1'.
If the device isn't supporting this feature, the default value (96B)
will be used.

In the current state, when preforming read/write
transactions we must wait for a completion in order
to run the next transaction, and all transactions are
performed by order.
Relaxed Ordering is a PCI optimization which by enabling it
we allow the system to perform read/writes in a different
order without having to wait for completion and improve
the performance in that matter.
This commit introduces the creation of relaxed ordering
memory regions in mlx5.
As relaxed ordering is an optimization, drivers that
do not support it can simply ignore it and therefore
it is enabled by default.
