It would help a lot to describe what is the Napatech NIC Driver Suite, and why it is a virtual driver.I will elaborate on the description to make it more clear and send an update patch. However, the driver is a virtual driver because we already bypasses the kernel stack in our NIC driver and does that in an effective manner.
Is there some plan to upstream your driver in Linux? We need to think about the limitations we could have when implementing a PCI driver as a virtual driver. Any thoughts? [...]

Where can we download the Driver Suite?When the Napatech NIC is released, the driver suite will then be available for download. If you need something sooner, we will need to make special arrangements.
We cannot accept a driver until we can freely compile it. What is the expected release date?
