A new DPDK release candidate is ready for testing:
https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk/tag/?id=v20.02-rc2
226 patches were integrated.
The release notes so far:
http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/rel_notes/release_20_02.html
Highlights of 20.02-rc2:
- ABI check tooling
- Mellanox vDPA driver
- Marvell OCTEON TX2 inline IPsec
- synchronous CPU crypto API
- CPU crypto based on new libraries (intel-ipsec-mb and
AArch64cryptolib)
- reverted Chacha20-Poly1305 algorithm (because of ABI issue)
- event mode in l3fwd example
The -rc3 should include only some bug fixes, simple cleanups, doc
and tooling. We have one week to complete this milestone.
Then one more week (allowing -rc4) should be needed before the release.
The schedule is shifting a bit to let more time to Chinese contributors.
Thank you everyone
