Is this module not available for ARM64 architecture?


Correct, this is only available for amd64.

HPS might have some more insight as to why it's amd64 only.

I have cc'd him.

It could be as simple as moving the qlnxe lines from files.amd64 to files,
but it does appear that qnlxe depends upon the Linux compat layer, which
may not be complete for arm64..



The LinuxKPI works for ARM64 aswell. Maybe the QLNXE driver is not 
tested for ARM64.

I tried to move the lines, but maybe I did something wrong since it 
failed to build.

To test it with a custom kernel, would I only need to add these lines 
(https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/sys/conf/files.amd64#n279-306)?
