+ Existing KNI ethtool implementation is only supported by ``igb`` & ``ixgbe``
+ drivers, by using a copy of kernel drivers in DPDK. This model can't be extend
+ to all drivers in DPDK and it is too much effort to maintain kernel modules in DPDK.
+ As a result users won't be able to use ``ethtool`` via ``igb`` & ``ixgbe`` anymore.
