+=====================

+Introduction
+=============
+vDPA(Virtual data path acceleration) device is a device that uses
+a datapath which complies with the virtio specifications with vendor
+specific control path. vDPA devices can be both physically located on
+the hardware or emulated by software.
+
+This document describes the vDPA support in qemu
+
+Here is the kernel commit here
+https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=4c8cf31885f69e86be0b5b9e6677a26797365e1d
