-The SW Turbo PMD (**turbo_sw**) provides a poll mode bbdev driver that utilizes
-Intel optimized libraries for LTE Layer 1 workloads acceleration. This PMD
-supports the functions: Turbo FEC, Rate Matching and CRC functions.
+The SW Turbo PMD (**baseband_turbo_sw**) provides a software only poll mode bbdev
+driver that can optionally utilize Intel optimized libraries for LTE and 5GNR
+Layer 1 workloads acceleration.
+
+Note that the driver can also be built without any dependency with reduced
+functionality for maintenance purpose.
+
+To enable linking to the SDK libraries see detailed installation section below.
+Two flags can be enabled depending on whether the target machine can support
+AVX2 and AVX512 instructions sets and the related SDK libraries for vectorized
+signal processing functions are installed :
+- CONFIG_RTE_BBDEV_SDK_AVX2
+- CONFIG_RTE_BBDEV_SDK_AVX512
+By default these 2 flags are disabled by default. For AVX2 machine and SDK
+library installed then the first flag can be enabled. For AVX512 machine and
+SDK library installed then both flags can be enabled for full real time capability.
+
+This PMD supports the functions: FEC, Rate Matching and CRC functions detailed
+in the Features section.
