These are the features that we plan to submit for the 19.05 release:
Intel® QuickAssist Technology (Intel® QAT) Asymmetric Crypto: The initial implementation will provide support for modexp and modinv. Additional algorithms will be supported in future releases. Intel® QAT AES-XTS Support Intel® QAT Compression PMD Support for Large Scatter-Gather Lists ICE & AVF PMD Enhancements: Enhancements to the ICE and AVF PMDs to support Intel® Ethernet 800 Series Network Adapters. AF_XDP PMD: Add a DPDK PMD to support AF_XDP. This will allow better inter-working with the Linux kernel. Virtio Optimisations: This includes IN_ORDER performance optimisation in Virtio1.1 packed ring driver, and EVENT_IDX optimisation for better interrupt suppression in Vhost. IPsec Library Enhancements: Add support for additional crypto/auth algorithms, header construction (RFC4301, 5.1.2), and performance optimisations. DPDK for Windows: Initial support for DPDK on Windows, including changes to support the clang-win64 compiler and updates to the helloworld sample app. Non-Blocking Stack Mempool Handler: Add a non-blocking stack handler, which means: "failure or suspension of any thread cannot cause failure or suspension of another thread". I40E VXLAN-GPE Support I40E Support for MARK+RSS Rte_flow Actions Baseband Device Turbo PMD: Add a new PMD to support hardware acceleration for turbo encoding/decoding.
