[ovs-discuss] hardware offloading in ovs-2.8

For now, I 'm using the "NetXtreme II BCM57810 10 Gigabit Ethernet 168e".
Another question,  I found  ovs-dpdk can't bind this NIC. But I find there is the support code for 57810 in the DPDK Bnx2x.
I'm puzzled.
Can you tell me whether  ovs-dpdk support this NIC?

Thanks very much!
