Why not having liberouter in its name? > SZE is our Straight ZEro copy technology for fast data transfers between hardware and RAM, 2 is its second version, _cv3 denotes compatibility with our third generation of FPGA cards. Liberouter is the name of our team, which does also other, non-hardware stuff. In the future we want to rewrite this PMD to be independent on sze library and kernel modules - that could also further improve performance a little. > > > We have already sent a patch serie in June > > (http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-June/019736.html ), but missed > > previous merge window.
