Folks,
I’m a newbie going thru’ dpdk. Have few quick questions.

1) Where can I find implementations of PMD of third party (non-Intel)
adapters like librte_pmd_mlx4 or librte_pmd_oce? Is it available for
reference?

2) What are the pre-requisites to start using PMD for a thirdparty NIC vendor ?

3) Things to keep in mind if any for using dpdk ?

4) My understanding is that dpdk can also work other than IA arch but
with some penalty (eg: ppc)? Is that right ?

Thx
harish
