Hi,

I'm using pf_ring 6.6.0 (not using ZC) on CentOS 7.0.
I would like to upgrade the i40e driver (only) to 2.2.4 (i.e. take the code
of i40e from pf_ring 7.0 and put it in pf_ring 6.6.0 and use them together).
The question is how risky it is? How pf_ring is tight up with the i40e
driver version?

Thanks,
Amir

Hi Amir
the driver API is the same, thus you can do that, however I do not recommend you
upgrading to 2.2.4 as this version seems to be not really stable yet, we are working on this.
