Subject: [dpdk-dev] Solarflare PMD submission question
Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2016 09:34:04 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d0f0fa30-975f-8cce-7074-125f6190e908@solarflare.com> (raw)

Hi,

we would like to include Solarflare libefx-based PMD in the DPDK 17.02 
and start the upstreaming process.
The driver supports Solarflare SFN7xxx and SFN8xxx families of 10/40 
Gbps adapters.
The driver has base driver. It is just fresh version of the same code 
which is used in the FreeBSD [1], illumos [2] and some other Solarflare 
drivers.
The question is how to submit the base driver which is pretty big. Mail 
size of the patch which imports it is about 2 Mb.
Further changes in the base driver will go in small patches (as it is 
done, for example, in the FreeBSD).
The PMD itself is split into small and, I hope, readable and nice patches.

Andrew.
