+Linux Driver for the AMD/Pensando(R) DSC adapter family
+========================================================
+
+AMD/Pensando Linux Core driver
+Copyright(c) 2023 Advanced Micro Devices, Inc
+
+Identifying the Adapter
+=======================
+
+To find if one or more AMD/Pensando PCI Core devices are installed on the
+host, check for the PCI devices::
+
+ # lspci -d 1dd8:100c
+ b5:00.0 Processing accelerators: Pensando Systems Device 100c
+ b6:00.0 Processing accelerators: Pensando Systems Device 100c
+
+If such devices are listed as above, then the pds_core.ko driver should find
+and configure them for use. There should be log entries in the kernel
+messages such as these::
+
+ $ dmesg | grep pds_core
+ pds_core 0000:b5:00.0: 252.048 Gb/s available PCIe bandwidth (16.0 GT/s PCIe x16 link)
+ pds_core 0000:b5:00.0: FW: 1.60.0-73

+ pds_core 0000:b6:00.0: FW: 1.60.0-73
+
+Driver and firmware version information can be gathered with devlink::
+
+ $ devlink dev info pci/0000:b5:00.0
+ pci/0000:b5:00.0:
+ driver pds_core

+
+Info versions
+=============
+
+The ``pds_core`` driver reports the following versions
+
+.. list-table:: devlink info versions implemented
+ :widths: 5 5 90
+
+ * - Name
+ - Type
+ - Description
+ * - ``fw``
+ - running

+ * - ``asic.id``
+ - fixed
+ - The ASIC type for this device
+ * - ``asic.rev``
+ - fixed
+ - The revision of the ASIC for this device
+
+
+Parameters
+==========
+
+The ``pds_core`` driver implements the following generic
+parameters for controlling the functionality to be made available
+as auxiliary_bus devices.
+
+.. list-table:: Generic parameters implemented
+ :widths: 5 5 8 82
+
+ * - Name
+ - Mode
+ - Type
+ - Description
+ * - ``enable_vnet``
+ - runtime
+ - Boolean
+ - Enables vDPA functionality through an auxiliary_bus device
+
+
+Firmware Management
+===================
+
+The ``flash`` command can update a the DSC firmware. The downloaded firmware
+will be saved into either of firmware bank 1 or bank 2, whichever is not
+currrently in use, and that bank will be then selected for the next boot.
+
+Enabling the driver
+===================
+
+The driver is enabled via the standard kernel configuration system,
+using the make command::
+
+ make oldconfig/menuconfig/etc.
+
+The driver is located in the menu structure at:
+
+ -> Device Drivers
+ -> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y])
+ -> Ethernet driver support
+ -> AMD devices
+ -> AMD/Pensando Ethernet PDS_CORE Support
+
+Support
+=======
+
+For general Linux networking support, please use the netdev mailing
+list, which is monitored by AMD/Pensando personnel::
+
+ netdev@...r.kernel.org
+
+For more specific support needs, please use the AMD/Pensando driver support
+email::
+
+ drivers@...sando.io
