> Highlights of 26.07-rc1:
> - option --pagesz-mem for per-page-size maximum
> - option --no-auto-probing for no device at init
> - less mempool cache misses in run-to-completion
> - peek style API for staged-ordered ring
> - RISC-V vector paths
> - PTP helpers and clock relay example
> - selective Rx API to save PCI bandwidth
> - vhost memory hotplug

> - LinkData sxe2 NIC driver
> - AI review helpers
>
> Important note:
> Pipelined applications, where ethdev Rx and Tx run on separate lcores, should
> adapt to the new algorithm by doubling their configured mempool cache size,
> to avoid doubling their mempool cache miss rate.
