Maintenance would be eased by showing this work with separate commits.
You should at least have a patch for importing FreeBSD source without
modifications.

Thanks Stephen for all the info!
Do you expect this pmd driver will be in sync with FreeBSD repo in the future,
or it's going to be diverged? I am just asking from a maintenance stand point.

Hi Stephen,
Thanks for your great work on this!
Could you elaborate on a few things:
- What's the methodology used in the driver porting?
e.g. what's the base source you ported from?
what's the major change against the base source?
- What kind of tests have been done on Linux? any known limit

No. The driver is not going to be extended
Source was from FreeBSD.
changes were to make it work and lots of de-uglification.
For example, the last change was to remove custom logging and debug macros.
There are still lots of style issues with the driver, because of the amount
of
useless macro wrapping.
I don't believe in the vendor mod

These are the patches to enable supporting the Broadcom
NetExtreme II 10G devices (show up as bnx2x on Linux).
The driver has only been tested on Linux, there maybe issues
with firmware loading and PCI config access on BSD.
