The Nevada (OpenSolaris) qfe drivers are GLDv3 based. These drivers however will not directly work on Solaris 10. The GLDv3 qfe driver depends on the GLDv3 hme driver so first you would need to backport the hme driver to Solaris 10 and then the qfe driver. There are only a few code changes necessary to do this but this will still not be done because there are several interface changes which will break compatibility (e.g. when using the ndd command on /dev/qfe and instance vs. /dev/qfe<instance>). So most likely there will not be any GLDv3 based qfe driver for Solaris 10. See RFE 6590092 (qfe) and 6568532 (hme) which both have the request for Solaris 10 backports (not done though).
