[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 0/7] support for netronome nfp-6xxx card

[Alejandro Lucero]

Yes.

There was a bug in 1.8 affecting how BARs are used in the device, but this
should be fixed in 2.2

I understand that this PMD needs a kernel driver which is not upstream 
yet. Am I correct?

Yes, this is true.

There is a internal Netronome project for upstreaming the netdev kernel
driver along with a BSP driver.
PMD support will be in the BSP.

There is a public github repo with current drivers:

[Alejandro.Lucero]

From: "Alejandro.Lucero" 

This patchset adds a new PMD for Netronome nfp-6xxx card.
Just PCI Virtual Functions supported.
Using this PMD requires previous Netronome BSP installation.

v6:
 - Making each patch compilable

v5:
 - Splitting up patches by functionality

v4:
 - Getting rid of nfp_uio. Just submitting PMD

v3:
 - Making all patches independent for applying and building
 - changing commits messages following standard

v2:
 - Code style changes based on checkpatch.pl and DPDK style guide
 - Documentation changes using the right rst format
 - Moving the documentation files to a new patch file
 - Adding info to MAINTAINERS and release files

Alejandro.Lucero (7):
  nfp: basic initialization
  nfp: adding rx/tx functionality
  nfp: adding rss
  nfp: adding stats
  nfp: adding link functionality
  nfp: adding extra functionality
  nfp: adding nic guide
