Log:
   This is the beta release of the driver for the new
   Intel 40G Ethernet Controller XL710 Family. This is
   the core driver, a VF driver called i40evf, will be
   following soon. Questions or comments to myself or
   my co-developer Eric Joyner. Cheers!
love the name..
Aesthetics aside, I think the name should be changed. Network drivers always used [a-z] for name and [0-9] for unit. Can you find an example where this is not true?

I just meant the XL (Roman Numeral 40) part..

sorry to have caused this fuss jsut because I like the use of the common "XL" name to (in this case) hint at 40. the device name in netstat could be ixlgNNN (intel 40gig) even if the device is aimed at the 710 (and later 720 etc..)
