 # Changelog
 
+## [0.1.6](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/compare/v0.1.5...v0.1.6) (2024-08-27)
+
+### SM75 Support
+
+Starting from [0.1.6](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/compare/v0.1.5...v0.1.6), our pre-built wheels include experimental support sm75 (Turing architecture GPUs such as Tesla T4, Quadro RTX 6000 and RTX 2080).
+
+### API Changes
+
+#### `plan`/`run`
+
+Since [0.1.6](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/compare/v0.1.5...v0.1.6) on, `begin_forward`/`forward`/`end_forward` APIs are replaced with the new `plan`/`run` API.
+- `forward` is renamed to `run`, which is more precise and consistent with the naming convention of cutlass's python API.
+- `begin_forward` is renamed to `plan`, which is consistent with the naming convention of nvmath API.
+- `end_forward` is deprecated and has no effect after this PR.
+
+There is some slight difference between the old `forward` and the new `run` API:
+- All extra arguments such as `causal` and `logits_soft_cap` will be provided in `plan` (previously `begin_forward`) API, and cached until next `plan` call, and we only need to provide query and KV-Cache tensors in `run` API.
+
+The old `begin_forward`/`forward`/`end_forward` APIs are still functional, but we will gradually deprecate them in future releases.
+
+Check [#466](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/pull/466) for more details.
+
+#### `MultiLevelCascadeAttentionWrapper`
+
+Since [0.1.6](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/compare/v0.1.5...v0.1.6) on, we introduce a new `MultiLevelCascadeAttentionWrapper` API for cascade inference,
+which supports multi-level cascade inference where all levels' KV-Cache can be managed in a unified Paged KV-Cache.
+
+See [documentation](https://docs.flashinfer.ai/api/python/cascade.html#flashinfer.cascade.MultiLevelCascadeAttentionWrapper) and [tutorial](https://docs.flashinfer.ai/tutorials/kv_layout.html#multi-level-cascade-inference-data-layout) on API usage and layout explaination.
+
+The old `BatchDecodeWithSharedPrefixPagedKVCacheWrapper` and `BatchPrefillWithSharedPrefixPagedKVCacheWrapper` will be deprecated in future releases.
+
+### Features
+
+* sm75 support ([#448](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/pull/448), [#449](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/pull/449))
