A new vnic type
vdpa
has been added to allow requesting port that utilize a vhost-vdpa offload. vhost-vdpa is simpler to vhost-user or kernel vhost offload but utilizes the newly added vdpa bus introduced in the Linux 5.7 kernel. vdpa interface can be implemented in software or hardware, when implemented in hardware they provide equivalent performance to sr-iov or hardware offloaded ovs while have two main advantages over both sriov and hardware offloaded ovs. Unlike the alternatives vhost-vdpa enable live migration of instance transparently and provides a standard virtio-net interface to the guest avoiding the need to install vendor specific drivers in the guest.
