Integrating NIC with the integrated or onboard switches over i2c or sbus is a common problem. Instead of polluting ethdev driver with i2c and sbus _bus_ code, Why not add new i2c bus and move this code to driver/bus/i2c/xxxx/ > > To avoid configuration for both kernel driver > and userspace SDK outside DPDK, we add switch > management in FM10K DPDK PMD driver. > To enable switch management, you need add > CONFIG_RTE_FM10K_MANAGEMENT=y in > config/common_linux when building. > > Signed-off-by: Xiaojun Liu <xiaojun....@silicom.co.il>
