### ftl
Several changes have been made to the `spdk_ftl_conf`, `spdk_ftl_dev_init_ops`, and
`spdk_ftl_attrs` structs. Please see `include/spdk/ftl.h` for more details.

Added `priority` field in `spdk_nvme_transport_id`, this field is used to specify the priority
of the NVMe-oF connection, and currently it is used for NVMe-oF tcp connection.
A new poll group API has been added to allow for pooling of nvme qpairs across a single
entity which can be polled for completions. This new API consists of the `spdk_nvme_poll_group`
family of functions. As a result of this new API, all NVMe transports are expected to implement
several poll group related functions.
A new flag, `create_only`, has been added to the `spdk_nvme_io_qpair_opts` structure. This flag
allows a user to call `spdk_nvme_ctrlr_get_default_io_qpair` without also connecting the qpair
within the context of that call.
As a result of the `create_only` flag, two new API functions, `spdk_nvme_ctrlr_connect_io_qpair`
and `spdk_nvme_ctrlr_disconnect_io_qpair`, have been added to facilitate connecting newly created
qpairs (for example, after they have been added to a poll group) and disconnecting qpairs without
destroying them (for example to disconnect a qpair before migrating it to a new poll group and
reconnecting it).
The functions `spdk_nvme_ctrlr_alloc_cmb_io_buffer` and `spdk_nvme_ctrlr_free_cmb_io_buffer`
have been changed to `spdk_nvme_ctrlr_map_cmb` and `spdk_nvme_ctrlr_unmap_cmb` respectively.
An additional function, `spdk_nvme_ctrlr_reserve_cmb`, has been added to facilitate reserving
the entire size of the controller memory buffer for data transfer.
### nvme_cuse
`spdk_nvme_cuse_get_ctrlr_name` now takes two additional parameters, `char *name` which
stores the pointer to the controller name, and `size_t *size` which stores the length of
the name. The return type has also been changed from char * to int.
`spdk_nvme_cuse_get_ns_name` now takes two additional parameters, `char *name` which
stores the pointer to the namespace name, and `size_t *size` which stores the length of
the name. The return type has also been changed from char * to int.
### nvme_opal
Several public OPAL structure definitions have been changed since the last release.
### nvmf
`spdk_nvmf_poll_group_destroy()` is now asynchronous and accepts a completion callback.

A new struct, `spdk_nvmf_subsystem_listener`, has been added to encapsulate the subsystem specific
nature of a listener object.
`spdk_nvmf_tgt_listen` no longer accepts a callback function or argument. It also returns an
int to indicate the status of the listen call.
The execution of `spdk_nvme_poll_group_destroy` is now asynchronous and the function accepts
a cb_fn and cb_arg to call upon completion.
The execution of `spdk_nvmf_subsystem_add_listener` is now asynchronous and the function accepts
a cb_fn and cb_arg to call upon completion.
The `nvmf_transport.h` header has been made public to allow custom NVMe-oF transports to integrate
with NVMe-oF libraries without using internal APIs.

Users may now specify the priority of the socket in the opts that they want to use.
### spdk_top
A new application, `spdk_top`, has been added which allows users to monitor resource consumption
by a running SPDK application. More information on this application can be found in
`app/spdk_top/README`.
