Emulex Advanced Ethernet Device Driver

Emulex Advanced Ethernet Device Driver

Overview

This project will provide the GLDv3 driver to support Emulex
OCe10xxx line of multi-function FCoE and NIC PCI-Express CNAs.

The purpose of this project is to provide a Solaris Driver,
to avail of TCP/IP Networking, and associated applications.
Equivalent support is being provided to other major Operating Systems.

The oce driver is a GLDv3 based driver and will provide support for core
GLDv3 functions. Additional features, such as Power management
(suspend, resume), Dynamic Reconfiguration and Fast Reboot will
also be supported. Separate packaging for oce will be provided,
including installable binaries, and man page listings.

Exercising the NIC functionality of a CNA is a critical piece
in using it as a general purpose Network capable device.
