- Stratum now uses P4Runtime canonical byte strings by default.
- For stratum_bfrt targets, the old behavior can be enabled with the enable_bfrt_legacy_bytestring_responses flag.
- P4Runtime metadata translation is now experimentally supported for stratum_bfrt and is enabled with the experimental_enable_p4runtime_translation flag.
- Support for Intel P4Studio 9.5.2, 9.7.1, and 9.8.0 (9.3.x is no longer supported)
- Starting with 9.7.0, only stratum_bfrt is supported, and stratum_bf will be removed for all versions in the next release.
