Each device group has a type. For now, define one initial group type: SR-IOV type - PCI SR-IOV virtual functions (VFs) of a given PCI SR-IOV physical function (PF). This group may contain zero or more virtio devices according to NumVFs configured. Each device within a group has a unique identifier. This identifier is the group member identifier. Note: one can argue both ways whether the new device group handling functionality (this and following patches) is closer to a new device type or a new transport type. However, it's expected that we will add more features in the near future. To facilitate this as much as possible of the text is located in the new admin chapter. Effort was made to minimize transport-specific text. There's a bit of duplication with 0x1 repeated twice and no special section for group type identifiers. It seems ok to defer adding these until we have more group types. Based-on-patch-by: Max Gurtovoy <mgurto...@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.
