 -------------------
+* The ABI changes are planned for struct rte_eth_fdir_flow_ext in order to support flow director filtering in VF. The upcoming release 2.1 will not contain these ABI changes, but release 2.2 will, and no backwards compatibility is planed due to this change. Binaries using this library build prior to version 2.2 will require updating and recompilation.
