We are seeking the endorsement of the Networking community for a new
project: NIC gldv3 CNA driver.
The purpose of this project is to provide early access to a Solaris
driver that will enable and ensure the availability of TCP/IP
networking on a Converged Network Adapter on OpenSolaris systems
with the QLogic PCI express QLE81xx hardware.
This gldv3 NIC driver belongs to the dual function Converged Network
Adapter, with Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) being the other
function. The QLogic QLE81xx is the world’s first single ASIC, fully
integrated CNA. The FCoE driver has already been integrated into
Nevada and also for the upcoming Solaris 10 U8 release.
The gldv3 NIC driver is essential to ensure that the CNA can be
fully functional piece of hardware.
According to Article VIII of the OpenSolaris Constitution, we need
three +1 votes from Core Contributors
within 72 hours and no -1 votes.
