This patch for DPDK Contributor's Guidelines indicates the repos
against which a new PMD should be prepared; for new network ethernet
PMDs it should be dpdk-next-net, and for new crypto PMDs
it should be dpdk-next-crypto. Though this may seem obvious, it
is not mentioned in DPDK documentation.

[Fiona] Good idea to add this patch. However despite the name crypto is actual broader.... so maybe
"If you add a new crypto or compression PMD.... "

If that is the case, then probably a reference to MAINTAINERS should be mentioned in the documentation
because there are a lot more other stuff(beyond PMDs) in DPDK where people can contribute and for that people need to
look into MAINTAINERS anyway.


Hi Akhil,
Thanks for your response. It seems to me though that the MAINTAINER file is not really part of the documentation,
it is more of a reference type of file. Not sure that new DPDK developers will know to look in it for this type of information.

I will send V2 of the patch and add event and bbdev.

Regards,
Rami Rosen

I believe this information is already captured in the MAINTAINERS file about which PMD goes to which tree.
If we need to document it in the documentation as well, then probably all other stuff should also be captured (like event and bbdev)
