+
+DPDK 21.08 supports running testpmd and examples
+with mlx5, i40e, and ice HW, vmxnet3 paravirtual devices in QEMU,
+or with PCAP virtual devices.
+It requires yet unsigned kernel-mode drivers to run (except mlx5).
+Only network PMDs are currently enabled.
+
+Current focus is friction-less consumption by end-users and supporting more HW.
+Multi-process, and hence dpdk-pdump support is neither available nor scheduled.

Applied, thanks.

Note: fixed capitalization VMWare -> VMware
