HV VHCA is a layer which provides PF to VF communication channel based on HyperV PCI config channel. It implements Mellanox's Inter VHCA control communication protocol. The protocol contains control block in order to pass messages between the PF and VF drivers, and data blocks in order to pass actual data. The infrastructure is agent based. Each agent will be responsible of contiguous buffer blocks in the VHCA config space. This infrastructure will bind agents to their blocks, and those agents can only access read/write the buffer blocks assigned to them. Each agent will provide three callbacks (control, invalidate, cleanup). Control will be invoked when block-0 is invalidated with a command that concerns this agent. Invalidate callback will be invoked if one of the blocks assigned to this agent was invalidated. Cleanup will be invoked before the agent is being freed in order to clean all of its open resources or deferred works. Block-0 serves as the control block. All execution commands from the PF will be written by the PF over this block. VF will ack on those by writing on block-0 as well. Its format is described by struct mlx5_hv_vhca_control_block layout.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
