[dpdk-dev] Bypass support in the i40e PMD driver

[dpdk-dev] Bypass support in the i40e PMD driver

[EJ Raymond]

Hi,

I'm currently working with the PE310G4BPI71 Bypass card from Silicom, Inc.,
This board is based on the i40E chip (Intel X710 - Fortville). In DPDK,
this card makes use of the i40e PMD driver, and I've noticed that bypass
configuration is only supported in the IXGBE PMD driver today. Can anyone
say if there'll be support for configuring the various bypass modes and
watchdog timer in the librte_pmd_i40e driver in the future?

Thanks,
EJ

Sorry I didn't hear anything about i40e bypass related currently.

Hi,

Just wondering if there's any change in status of this topic? I can
currently access bypass support for this card in the Silicom utility
driver, but have no access in the current DPDK-18.11.0. Will there be
support similar to the 82599 bypass API in the future?

Thanks,
EJ
