Overall I suggest reading following documentation: - Contributing Code to DPDK https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/contributing/patches.html - DPDK Coding Style https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/contributing/coding_style.html Splitting the driver into more logical and easy consumable patches can help all, as samples given in above drivers. And please try to upstream regularly and in small chunks, instead of accumulating many changes and sending them in one go as a big patch. There are multiple automated tests are running on the sent patches, please check status of your patches after you send them, and if some warnings/errors detected you can send an updated version until all issues fixed. It is possible to manage your patches from patchwork, update their status as new patches arrived etc.. https://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/ Please be sure you are registered to mail list and patchwork. And please be sure you have adequate documentation with your driver, including the product links etc.. These are all I can think of as of now, cc'ed a few more folks for the things I missed, welcome again :)
