+XEN Netfront Poll Mode Driver
+=============================
+
+The XEN netfront poll mode driver connects to the XEN netback driver offering the same functionality as the
+Xen netfront driver in the Linux kernel.
+
+Supported Features
+------------------
+
+- Single TX/RX queue pair
+- Single MAC address
+
+Config File Options
+-------------------
+
+
+- ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_XEN`` (default **n**)
+
+  Toggle compilation of the ``librte_pmd_xen`` driver.
+
+
+Linux
+-----
+
+This section demonstrates how to load the Xen netfront PMD.
+
+#. Load ``xen_uio`` driver:
+
+   .. code-block:: console
+
+		   modprobe uio
+		   insmod ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/kmod/xen_uio.ko
+
+#. Bind the XEN network device vif-0 to ``xen_uio`` driver:
+
+   .. code-block:: console
+
+		   echo vif-0 > /sys/bus/xen/drivers/vif/unbind
+		   echo vif-0 > /sys/bus/xen/drivers/xen_uio/bind
+
+#. Start ``testpmd`` with basic parameters:
+
+   .. code-block:: console
+
+		   testpmd -c 0x3 -n 4  -- -i --txqflags=0x0e00 --mbuf-size=9000 --total-num-mbufs=2048
+
+   Example output:
+
+   .. code-block:: console
+
+		   ...
+		   EAL: Master lcore 0 is ready (tid=6e4128c0;cpuset=[0])
+		   PMD: vif-0 skipping device with driver vif
+		   PMD: vif-1 Creating xen-netfront PMD ethdev on socket 0
+		   PMD: vif-1 uio_num = 0
+		   PMD: /dev/uio0 mmap map0 (4096@0x0) to 0x7f366e419000
+		   PMD: /dev/uio0 mmap map1 (4096@0x0) to 0x7f366e418000
+		   PMD: /dev/uio0 mmap map2 (4096@0x0) to 0x7f366e411000
+		   EAL: lcore 1 is ready (tid=4c5ff700;cpuset=[1])
+		   Interactive-mode selected
