      =========================================================
 
+* **Added RX/TX packet burst mode get API.**
+
+  Added two new functions ``rte_eth_rx_burst_mode_get`` and
+  ``rte_eth_tx_burst_mode_get`` that allow an application
+  to retrieve the mode information about RX/TX packet burst
+  such as Scalar or Vector, and Vector technology like AVX2.
+  Another new function ``rte_eth_burst_mode_option_name`` is
+  provided for burst mode options stringification.
+
 * **Updated the Intel ice driver.**
 
   Updated the Intel ice driver with new features and improvements, including:
