+Vendor Specific Recovery
+------------------------
+
+When ``WEDGED=vendor-specific`` is sent, it indicates that the device requires
+a recovery procedure specific to the hardware vendor and is not one of the
+standardized approaches.
+
+``WEDGED=vendor-specific`` may be used to indicate different cases within a
+single vendor driver, each requiring a distinct recovery procedure.
+In such scenarios, the vendor driver must provide comprehensive documentation
+that describes each case, include additional hints to identify specific case and
+outline the corresponding recovery procedure. The documentation includes:
+
+Case - A list of all cases that sends the ``WEDGED=vendor-specific`` recovery method.
+
+Hints - Additional Information to assist the userspace consumer in identifying and
+differentiating between different cases. This can be exposed through sysfs, debugfs,
+traces, dmesg etc.
+
+Recovery Procedure - Clear instructions and guidance for recovering each case.
+This may include userspace scripts, tools needed for the recovery procedure.
+
+It is the responsibility of the admin/userspace consumer to identify the case and
+verify additional identification hints before attempting a recovery procedure.
+
+Example: If the device uses the Xe driver, then userspace consumer should refer to
+:ref:`Xe Device Wedging <xe-device-wedging>` for the detailed documentation.
