Hi Junlong, I can see not all of the eth_dev_ops implemented, and datapath not implemented, so driver is not functional right now. What happens if you want to run testpmd with the current state of the driver, I assume it crashes? And what is the plan for the driver? Are you planning to upstream remaining support in this release or in future releases? As the driver is not functional yet, to set the expectation right for the users, I suggest marking driver as experimental in the maintainers file and document the restrictions in the driver documentation, also clarify this in the release notes update, what do you think?
