Hi, Yigit
Yes, we had planned to add  fw_version in rte_eth_dev_info_get(). But Remy =
think we should better to implement this feature through a way don't break =
the original ABI. So I change the implement.

Hi Qiming,

Not sure if I am missing something but this change is for following [1] dep=
recation notice, right?
If so, notice suggest updating rte_eth_dev_info_get() to include fw_version=
, but this patch adds a new eth_dev_ops.

Is it agreed to add a new eth_dev_ops for this?


[1]
* In 17.02 ABI change is planned: the ``rte_eth_dev_info`` structure
  will be extended with a new member ``fw_version`` in order to store
  the NIC firmware version.
