+DAO Release 24.05.0
+===================
+
+New Features
+------------
+
+* **Libraries**
+
+  * *VirtIO*
+
+    VirtIO-net library is the virtualization solution used in CN10K for networking.
+    This model emulates SMART NICs for VM and front end virtio network driver.
+
+    Currently, VirtIO emulation device supports VirtIO 1.2 specification, where it offers
+    below features.
+
+  * *Netlink Library*
+
+    Netlink library provides an abstraction on top of open source libnl library using
+    which application gets notified for a received netlink message from LINUX. Applications
+    are notified via function callback for the netlink protocols they have registered.
+
+  * *Port Group*
+
+    Port group is a control path library that facilitates applications to iterate
+    over group of homogeneous ports (or devices) and apply common configurations on
+    them. Homogeneity of ports is decided by an application.
+
+  * *VFIO-Platform*
+
+    Library provides APIs to interact with platform devices from user space leveraging
+    vfio-platform kernel driver framework
+
+
+* **Applications**
+
+  * *OVS-offload*
+
+    Open vSwitch(OVS) is often used in conjunction with companion applications to
+    enhance and extend its capabilities. OVS offload is a companion application which
+    enhance OVS functionality between host ports and mac ports.
+
+  * *VirtIO-l2fwd*
+
+    It is a DPDK application that allows to exercise virtio usecase of forwarding traffic
+    between VirtIO net device and DPDK ethdev device. VirtIO net device is emulated using
+    virtio DAO library.
+
+  * *Smart-NIC*
+
+    Universal smart nic app is a powerful tool that harnesses the performance and efficiency
+    of hardware accelerators in DPUs. It also mitigates some hardware gaps by providing
+    optimized software solution for advanced features like as port hair pinning, tunnel-transport,
+    port hotplugging, etc.
