[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 03/17] net/qede/base: introduce HW/SW channel

Sat Oct 7 08:30:58 CEST 2017


Introduce 2 new API functions, one for the VF and the other for PF [per-VF]
which allows to decide whether to use HW/SW channel for PF<->VF
communication(a per-VF configuration). A HyperV might have different VMs
with different requirements.
