The SP scheduler +is selected when ODP is configured with the `--enable_schedule_sp` option. + +The SP scheduler is designed to favor low-latency processing of high priority +work at the expense of throughput. This is considered experimental code at +this point and should be treated as such by those wishing to use it. + +=== Bug Fixes +==== Scheduler PktIO Cleanup +The scheduler now properly cleans up PktIOs operating in SCHEDULE mode following +`odp_pktio_close()` calls. This resolves +https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2301[Bug 2301]. + +==== Chksum Routine C++ conformance +The odph_chksum() helper routine is now C++ conformant. This resolves +https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2302[Bug 2302]. + +==== User Area Copying +The `odp_packet_copy()` API now copies the packet user area as part of its +processing and the packet validation test has been enhanced to verify that this +is done properly. This resolves +https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2310[Bug 2310]. + +==== Use of Pool 0 as a Timeout Pool +The internal definition of `ODP_TIMEOUT_INVALID` was changed in `odp-linux` to +enable the use of Pool 0 as a timeout pool. This resolves +https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2316[Bug 2316]. + +=== Packaging +==== libodphelper +To facilitate API tracking, `libodphelper.so` has been split out from +`libodp.so`. + +==== Helper dependencies +To avoid circular dependencies that cause issues when packaging ODP as a +shared library, the `odp-linux` implementation no longer makes and use of +the ODP helper library. + +=== Performance +Performance enhancements in the `odp-linux` reference implementation have been +made in PktIO routines and the packet classifier. + +=== General Cleanup +General cleanup throughout has resulted in adding proper termination calls to +ODP examples as well as miscellaneous Doxygen corrections. Additionally, the +`odp-linux` code base has been cleaned up by removing "To Dos" as well as +extraneous `#includes` for extra C headers and dependencies on linux headers +for improved portability. + +=== Validation +==== Queue Capability Test +The Queue validation test now properly exercises the `odp_queue_capability()` +API and attempts to create the maximum reported number of supported queues. + +==== Platform Tests +The platform-specific tests have been moved from `platform/linux-generic/test` +to `test/platform/linux-generc` so that all tests are now found under a +single `test` directory. + +=== Documentation +==== Pure API Guide +The Doxygen API guide has been split so that both a "pure" version that is +platform-independent and retains unresolved ODP abstract types as well as +an implementation-specific version (for `odp-linux`) that shows +platform-specific `typedef` and `enum` values. + +==== Implementation Guide Improvements +The _ODP Implementer's Guide_ has been enhanced with a section on +implementation considerations, including issues surrounding the definition of +Application Binary Interfaces (ABIs). + +=== Known Issues +==== https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2309[Bug 2309] +The timer validation tests have seen occasional failures when run on systems +containing a larger number of CPUs (typically 24 or more). + +==== https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2386[Bug 2386] +ODP cannot be compiled using the -m32 option to generate 32-bit code on a +64-bit platform when using GCC 4.9 (the default GCC found in Ubuntu 15.04). +This is due to a known bug in GCC 4.9 and is closed as a permanent restriction. + +==== https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2402[Bug 2402] +Doxygen generates a warning for `ODP_BIG_ENDIAN_BITFIELD` when compiling on +little endian systems. A similar warning for `ODP_LITTLE_ENDIAN_BITFIELD` is +issued when compiling on big endian systems. + +==== https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2444[Bug 2444] +The traffic manager cannot be used with two PktIOs simultaneously. + == OpenDataPlane (1.10.1.0) === New Features
