[dpdk-users] Not able to detect Intel EC I218-V (rev 03)

[Nagaprabhanjan Bellaru]

I would be glad to do some testing, but I am just beginning to use DPDK,
can you please show me some pointers how to patch DPDK and then use it? I
could not find the files mentioned in the patch in the DPDK 2.2.0 suite
which I downloaded

Thanks,
-nagp
