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
