Hi David, Anatoly,
What to you think adding "Power Monitoring" as a new feature in the NIC feature
table? So the drivers supporting it can advertise it.
https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/nics/overview.html
For it need to,
- add "Power Monitoring" to template .ini file,
'.doc/guides/nics/features/default.ini'
- Document it in the features file, '.doc/guides/nics/features.rst'
- Update driver .ini files to advertise the feature, like 'ixgbe.ini'
+1
It would be good to have discoverability for this feature. Seems like
having a first non-Intel user is a good excuse to do just that :)
