+Kernel driver, DDP and Firmware Matching List
+---------------------------------------------
+It is highly recommended to upgrade the ixgbe kernel driver and
++firmware to avoid the compatibility issues with i40e PMD.
+The table below shows a summary of the DPDK versions with

+The full list of in-tree and out-of-tree Linux kernel drivers from
+kernel.org and Linux distributions that were tested and verified
++are listed in the Tested Platforms section of the Release Notes for each release.
