+Drivers
+-------
+
+Drivers are special libraries which provide poll-mode driver implementations for
+devices - either hardware devices or pseudo/virtual devices. They are contained
+in the "drivers" subdirectory, classified by type, and each compiles to a
+library with the format "librte_pmd_X.a" where "X" is the driver name.
+
+The drivers directory has a net subdirectory which contains::
+
+ drivers/net
+ +-- af_packet # poll mode driver based on linux af_packet
+ +-- bonding # bonding poll mode driver
