+bnxt poll mode driver library
+=============================
+
+The bnxt poll mode library (**librte_pmd_bnxt**) implements support for
+**Broadcom NetXtreme® C-Series**.  These adapters support Standards-
+compliant 10/25/50Gbps 30MPPS full-duplex throughput.
+
+Information about this family of adapters can be found in the
+`NetXtreme® Brand section <https://www.broadcom.com/products/ethernet-communication-and-switching?technology%5B%5D=88>`_
+of the `Broadcom web site <http://www.broadcom.com/>`_.
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+With the current driver, allocated mbufs must be large enough to hold
+the entire received frame.  If the mbufs are not large enough, the
+packets will be dropped.  This is most limiting when jumbo frames are
+used.
+
+SR-IOV is not supported.
