It is used with +the Pensando Virtual Function devices that offer vDPA and virtio queue +services. It depends on the ``pds_core`` driver and hardware for the PF +and VF PCI handling as well as for device configuration services. + +Using the device +================ + +The ``pds_vdpa`` device is enabled via multiple configuration steps and +depends on the ``pds_core`` driver to create and enable SR-IOV Virtual +Function devices.
