A new DPDK release candidate is ready for testing:
http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/tag/?id=v17.08-rc2
What's new in RC2?
- service cores API
- traffic management API (QoS)
- lock-free Tx queue capability API
- failsafe driver
The release notes have been updated:
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/rel_notes/release_17_08.html
It was a bit long too long to make this second release candidate.
Hopefully it is in a good shape and there won't be too many issues
for the third one. We should make RC3 in less than a week.
The next release candidate is expected to include only some
bug fixes, tooling, packaging or documentation updates.
The patchwork backlog has been cleaned a lot by moving some features
as deferred until the beginning of the 17.11 release cycle.
Please check what is remaining.
Thank you everyone
