  A DCF (Device Config Function) based approach is proposed where a device
bound to the device's VF0 can act as a sole controlling entity to exercise
advance functionality (such as switch, ACL) for rest of the VFs.

The DCF works as a standalone PMD to support this function, which shares the
ice PMD flow control core function and the iavf virtchnl mailbox core module.

This patchset is based on:
[1] https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/66417/ update ice base code

And it needs the coming iavf common lib update to compile, the modified
ice flow function to work.

Haiyue Wang (4):
  net/iavf: stop the PCI probe in DCF mode
  net/ice: export the DDP definition symbols
  net/ice: add the DCF framework
  doc: add release notes for Intel ice PMD
