| API Changes |
| *********** |
| |
| * Removed deprecated arch-level CMSIS header files |
| ``include/zephyr/arch/arm/cortex_a_r/cmsis.h`` and |
| ``include/zephyr/arch/arm/cortex_m/cmsis.h``. ``cmsis_core.h`` needs to be |
| included now. |
| |
| * Removed deprecated ``ceiling_fraction`` macro. :c:macro:`DIV_ROUND_UP` needs |
| to be used now. |
| |
| * Deprecated ``EARLY``, ``APPLICATION`` and ``SMP`` init levels can no longer be |
| used for devices. |
| |
| Removed APIs in this release |
| ============================ |
| |
| * Macro ``K_THREAD_STACK_MEMBER``, deprecated since v3.5.0, has been removed. |
| Use :c:macro:`K_KERNEL_STACK_MEMBER` instead. |
| * ``CBPRINTF_PACKAGE_COPY_*`` macros, deprecated since Zephyr 3.5.0, have been removed. |
| |
| Deprecated in this release |
| ========================== |
| |
| * Deprecated the :c:func:`net_buf_put` and :c:func:`net_buf_get` API functions in favor of |
