> The primary VFs are used as master queue sets. Secondary VFs provide
> additional queue sets for primary ones. If a port is configured for more then
> 8 queues then it will request for additional queues from secondary VFs.
>
> Secondary VFs cannot be shared between primary VFs.
>
> Primary VFs are present on the tail of the 'Network devices using kernel
> driver' list, secondary VFs are on the remaining tail of the list.

> The VNIC driver in the multiqueue setup works differently than other drivers
> like `ixgbe`. We need to bind separately each specific queue set device with
> the ``tools/dpdk-devbind.py`` utility.
>
> Depending on the hardware used, the kernel driver sets a threshold ``vf_id``.
> VFs that try to attach with an id below or equal to this boundary are
> considered primary VFs. VFs that try to attach with an id above this boundary
> are considered secondary VFs.
>
> This patchset also contains other cleanups and improvements like fixing
> erroneous checksum calculation and preparing the thunderx driver for the multi
> queue set feature support.
