2010-01-10ixgbevf: Mailbox communicationGreg Rose
The 82599 virtual function device and the master 82599 physical function device implement a mailbox utility for communication between the devices using some SRAM scratch memory and a doorbell/answering mechanism enabled via interrupt and/or polling.
