26 functions (VFs). PF0 is called the administrative / admin function (AF)
65 As mentioned above RVU PF0 is called the admin function (AF), this driver
70 PF/VFs communicates with AF via a shared memory region (mailbox). Upon
71 receiving requests AF does resource provisioning and other HW configuration.
72 AF is always attached to host kernel, but PFs and their VFs may be used by host
74 DPDK etc. So AF has to handle provisioning/configuration requests sent
77 AF driver also interacts with underlying firmware to
84 From pure networking side AF driver supports following functionality.
106 communicates with AF with a mailbox. To retrieve information from physical
107 links this driver talks to AF and AF gets that info from firmware and responds
121 - VFs cannot communicate with AF directly, they send mbox message to PF and PF
122 forwards that to AF. AF after processing, responds back to PF and PF forwards
135 - These communicate directly with AF (PF0) via mbox.
138 no other difference between these VF types. AF driver takes care of IO channel mapping,
158 2. The SQ is already configured (by AF) to transmit on a specific link/channel.
