Dear DPDK Development Team,

I hope this email finds you well. I am reaching out to inquire about DPDK support for the Marvell AQtion 10Gbit Network Adapter on my system.

I am working on a DPDK-based project and considering integrating the Marvell AQtion 10Gbit NIC.

System Details:

• Motherboard: ASUS ProArt Z790 Creator WiFi
• Ethernet Interfaces:
  • 1st Interface: Intel(R) Ethernet Controller I226-V (2.5 Gbit)
  • 2nd Interface: Marvell AQtion 10Gbit Network Adapter
• DPDK Setup:
  • Installed DPDK and vfio-pci driver
  • Successfully bound the 1st (2.5Gbit) interface to vfio-pci
  • Unable to bind the 2nd (10Gbit) interface

Issue:

I followed the standard DPDK setup steps and was able to bind and use the 2.5Gbit Intel interface without issues. However, I could not bind the Marvell AQtion 10Gbit adapter to DPDK.

Specifically, I would like to know:

1. Whether Marvell AQtion 10Gbit NIC is officially supported by DPDK.
2. If supported, which DPDK driver should be used for this NIC?
3. If not currently supported, are there any workarounds or plans for future support?

I would appreciate any guidance, references, or recommendations regarding this matter. Looking forward to your response.

Best regards,
