starting with macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 there will be native support for Aquantia AQtion based 10GbE network cards.
digging around in the latest developer beta of 10.13.2 revealed a KEXT named "AppleEthernetAquantiaAqtion.kext".
path to the KEXT: /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/
this has to be the 10GbE NIC of the soon to be released iMac Pro. it might be easy to get 10Gb ethernet in the near future...
possibly compatible cards
