The `Release information`_ documents the deprecated interfaces and the intended |

release after which it will be removed. When an interface is deprecated, the |

page must be updated to indicate the release after which the interface will be |
|
|
|
removed. This must be at least 1 full release cycle in future. For non-trivial |
|
|
|
interface changes, a `tf-issue`_ should be posted to notify platforms that they |
|

should migrate away from the deprecated interfaces. Platforms are expected to |

|

migrate before the removal of the deprecated interface. |

The deprecated interfaces are listed inside `Release information`_ as well as |

the release after which each one will be removed. When an interface is |

For non-trivial interface changes, an email should be sent out to the `TF-A |

public mailing list`_ to notify platforms that they should migrate away from the |
|

deprecated interfaces. Platforms are expected to migrate before the removal of |
