The list of internal APIs are mainly ones listed in ``rte_ethdev_driver.h``. +* rawdev: The rawdev APIs which take a device-specific structure as + parameter directly, or indirectly via a "private" pointer inside another + structure, will be modified to take an additional parameter of the + structure size. The affected APIs will include ``rte_rawdev_info_get``, + ``rte_rawdev_configure``, ``rte_rawdev_queue_conf_get`` and + ``rte_rawdev_queue_setup``. + * traffic manager: All traffic manager API's in ``rte_tm.h`` were mistakenly made ABI stable in the v19.11 release. The TM maintainer and other contributors have agreed to keep the TM APIs as experimental in expectation of additional spec -- 2.25.1
