+
+Identifying the Adapter
+=======================
+
+To find if one or more AMD/Pensando PCI Core devices are installed on the
+host, check for the PCI devices::
+
+ # lspci -d 1dd8:100c
+ b5:00.0 Processing accelerators: Pensando Systems Device 100c
+ b6:00.0 Processing accelerators: Pensando Systems Device 100c
+
+If such devices are listed as above, then the pds_core.ko driver should find
+and configure them for use. There should be log entries in the kernel
+messages such as these::
+
+ $ dmesg | grep pds_core
+ pds_core 0000:b5:00.0: 252.048 Gb/s available PCIe bandwidth (16.0 GT/s PCIe x16 link)
+ pds_core 0000:b5:00.0: FW: 1.60.0-73

+PCI vDPA driver for the AMD/Pensando(R) DSC adapter family
+==========================================================
+
+AMD/Pensando vDPA VF Device Driver
+
+Copyright(c) 2023 Advanced Micro Devices, Inc
+
+Overview
+========
+
+The ``pds_vdpa`` driver is an auxiliary bus driver that supplies
+a vDPA device for use by the virtio network stack. 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. After the VFs are enabled, we enable the vDPA service
+in the ``pds_core`` device to create the auxiliary devices used by pds_vdpa.
+
+Example steps:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ #!/bin/bash
+
+ modprobe pds_core
+ modprobe vdpa
+ modprobe pds_vdpa
+
+ PF_BDF=`ls /sys/module/pds_core/drivers/pci\:pds_core/*/sriov_numvfs | awk -F / '{print $7}'`
+
+ # Enable vDPA VF auxiliary device(s) in the PF
+ devlink dev param set pci/$PF_BDF name enable_vnet cmode runtime value true
+
+ # Create a VF for vDPA use
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pds_core/$PF_BDF/sriov_numvfs
+
+ # Find the vDPA services/devices available
+ PDS_VDPA_MGMT=`vdpa mgmtdev show | grep vDPA | head -1 | cut -d: -f1`
+
+ # Create a vDPA device for use in virtio network configurations
+ vdpa dev add name vdpa1 mgmtdev $PDS_VDPA_MGMT mac 00:11:22:33:44:55
+
+ # Set up an ethernet interface on the vdpa device
+ modprobe virtio_vdpa
+
+
+
+Enabling the driver

+
+The driver is enabled via the standard kernel configuration system,

+
+ make oldconfig/menuconfig/etc.

+PCI VFIO driver for the AMD/Pensando(R) DSC adapter family
+==========================================================
+
+AMD/Pensando Linux VFIO PCI Device Driver
+Copyright(c) 2023 Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
+
+Overview
+========
+
+The ``pds-vfio-pci`` module is a PCI driver that supports Live Migration
+capable Virtual Function (VF) devices in the DSC hardware.
+
+Using the device
+================
+
+The pds-vfio-pci device is enabled via multiple configuration steps and
+depends on the ``pds_core`` driver to create and enable SR-IOV Virtual
+Function devices.
+
+Shown below are the steps to bind the driver to a VF and also to the
+associated auxiliary device created by the ``pds_core`` driver. This
+example assumes the pds_core and pds-vfio-pci modules are already
+loaded.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+ :name: example-setup-script
+
+ #!/bin/bash
+
+ PF_BUS="0000:60"
+ PF_BDF="0000:60:00.0"
+ VF_BDF="0000:60:00.1"
+
+ # Prevent non-vfio VF driver from probing the VF device
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/pci_bus/$PF_BUS/device/$PF_BDF/sriov_drivers_autoprobe
+
+ # Create single VF for Live Migration via pds_core
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pds_core/$PF_BDF/sriov_numvfs
+
+ # Allow the VF to be bound to the pds-vfio-pci driver
+ echo "pds-vfio-pci" > /sys/class/pci_bus/$PF_BUS/device/$VF_BDF/driver_override
+
+ # Bind the VF to the pds-vfio-pci driver
+ echo "$VF_BDF" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pds-vfio-pci/bind
+
+After performing the steps above, a file in /dev/vfio/<iommu_group>
+should have been created.
+
+
+Enabling the driver
+===================
+
+The driver is enabled via the standard kernel configuration system,
+using the make command::
+
+ make oldconfig/menuconfig/etc.
+
+The driver is located in the menu structure at:
+
+ -> Device Drivers
+ -> VFIO Non-Privileged userspace driver framework
+ -> VFIO support for PDS PCI devices
