The current kdrv value should be RTE_KDRV_UNKNOWN for Mellanox devices. I do not see the value of creating a new type. I think the issue is in the bonding code (find_port_id_by_pci_addr): * TODO: Once the PCI bus has arrived we should have a better * way to test for being a PCI device or not. */ if (rte_eth_devices[i].data->kdrv == RTE_KDRV_UNKNOWN || rte_eth_devices[i].data->kdrv == RTE_KDRV_NONE) continue;
