Hi,
   What's the best approach to go about this ? Try and roll out user space
equivalents of the above calls (to issue mailbox commands to configure the
H/W- another 10G NIC )
OR
 Use kernel memory allocated in the UIO Driver and mmap it in the
PMD/usermode driver ?

Pls advise or offer any suggestions ?

Thanks
Som
