Help text

This driver supports Thunder's NIC physical function. The NIC provides the controller and DMA engines to move network traffic to/from the memory. The NIC works closely with TNS, BGX and SerDes to implement the functions replacing and virtualizing those of a typical standalone PCIe NIC chip.
