+==========================================================
+PCI vDPA driver for the AMD/Pensando(R) DSC adapter family
+==========================================================
+
+AMD/Pensando vDPA VF Device Driver
+
+Copyright(c) 2023 Advanced Micro Devices, Inc
+
+Overview
+========
+
+The ``pds_vdpa`` driver is an auxiliary bus driver that supplies
+a vDPA device for use by the virtio network stack.  It is used with
+the Pensando Virtual Function devices that offer vDPA and virtio queue
+services.  It depends on the ``pds_core`` driver and hardware for the PF
+and VF PCI handling as well as for device configuration services.
+
+Using the device
+================
+
+The ``pds_vdpa`` device is enabled via multiple configuration steps and
+depends on the ``pds_core`` driver to create and enable SR-IOV Virtual
+Function devices.  After the VFs are enabled, we enable the vDPA service
+in the ``pds_core`` device to create the auxiliary devices used by pds_vdpa.
+
+Example steps:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  #!/bin/bash
+
+  modprobe pds_core
+  modprobe vdpa
+  modprobe pds_vdpa
+
+  PF_BDF=`ls /sys/module/pds_core/drivers/pci\:pds_core/*/sriov_numvfs | awk -F / '{print $7}'`
+
+  # Enable vDPA VF auxiliary device(s) in the PF
+  devlink dev param set pci/$PF_BDF name enable_vnet cmode runtime value true
+
+  # Create a VF for vDPA use
+  echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pds_core/$PF_BDF/sriov_numvfs
+
+  # Find the vDPA services/devices available
+  PDS_VDPA_MGMT=`vdpa mgmtdev show | grep vDPA | head -1 | cut -d: -f1`
+
+  # Create a vDPA device for use in virtio network configurations
+  vdpa dev add name vdpa1 mgmtdev $PDS_VDPA_MGMT mac 00:11:22:33:44:55
+
+  # Set up an ethernet interface on the vdpa device
+  modprobe virtio_vdpa
+
+
+
+Enabling the driver
+===================
+
+The driver is enabled via the standard kernel configuration system,
+using the make command::
+
+  make oldconfig/menuconfig/etc.
+
+The driver is located in the menu structure at:
+
+  -> Device Drivers
+    -> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y])
+      -> Ethernet driver support
+        -> Pensando devices
+          -> Pensando Ethernet PDS_VDPA Support
+
+Support
+=======
+
+For general Linux networking support, please use the netdev mailing
+list, which is monitored by Pensando personnel::
+
+  netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+
+For more specific support needs, please use the Pensando driver support
+email::
