> The i40evf PMD will be deprecated, iavf will be the only VF driver for Intel 700
> serial (i40e) NIC family. To reach this, there will be 2 steps:
>
> Step 1: iavf will be the default VF driver, while i40evf still can be selected by

> This is covered by this patch, which include:
> 1) add all 700 serial NIC VF device ID into iavf PMD
> 2) skip probe if devargs contain "driver=i40evf" in iavf
> 3) continue probe if devargs contain "driver=i40evf" in i40evf
>
> Step 2: i40evf and related devarg are removed, this will happen at DPDK
> 21.11
>
> Between step 1 and step 2, no new feature will be added into i40evf except
> bug fix.
