[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 0/5] new API 'rte_eth_dev_fw_version_get'

[Qiming Yang]

Now, the example ethtool can only show the driver information. From
customers' point of view, it should be better if we can have the same
way that the Linux kernel ethtool does to show firmware version.

These five patches added a new function ``rte_eth_dev_fw_version_get()``
to fetch firmware version related information and implement the
display in example ethtool.


Qiming Yang (5):
  ethdev: add firmware version get
  net/e1000: add firmware version get
  net/ixgbe: add firmware version get
  net/i40e: add firmware version get
  ethtool: display firmware version
