Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] config: disable bnx2x driver
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2015 19:16:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438103799-31340-1-git-send-email-thomas.monjalon@6wind.com> (raw)
This driver has too many issues:
- too big
- bad coding style
- no git history (dropped in 2 patches)
- no documentation
- no BSD support
- no maintainer
And the biggest one, constraining this disabling:
- many build issues
If the last 4 issues are not fixed in the next release 2.2,
the driver must be removed.
