The Ethernet driver for Marvell/Cavium ThunderX has a number of issues, including at least: - No man page (PR204414) - Driver does not build as a module (PR204415) - Locking issues (PR206310) - Multicast not implemented (PR223573) - Non-promiscuous not implemented (PR223575) I'd like to know how much interest there is in this driver/hardware, and if anyone is willing to work on improving it. If no one has any interest I will at least add a minimal man page and document the state of the driver there.
