Every cells of a driver column are painted in yellow.
The trick is to generate some empty content as a big column
above and below the pointed cell.
The position: relative attribute is used for the highlight position
but it makes the border to disappear.
The overflow: hidden attribute is used to mask the generated content
outside of the table.
The class .wy-nav-content has a background which masks the highlighting.
Setting an opacity lower than 1, creates a new stack context and let
the column highlight to be shown.
The background of odd rows was grey and opaque. It is redefined with
a transparent alpha ratio in order to see highlighting on such rows.

I made a vhost ABI/API refactoring at v16.04, meant to avoid such issue
forever. Well, apparently, I lied.
People are looking for more vhost-user options now days, other than
vhost-user net only. For example, SPDK (Storage Performance Development
Kit) are looking for chance of vhost-user SCSI and vhost-user block.
Apparently, they also need a vhost-user backend, while DPDK already
has a (mature enough) backend, they don't want to implement it again
from scratch. They want to leverage the one DPDK provides.
However, the last refactoring hasn't done that right, at least it's
not friendly for extending vhost-user to add more devices support.
For example, different virtio devices has its own feature set, while
APIs like rte_vhost_feature_disable(feature_mask) have no option to
tell the device type. Thus, a more proper API should look like:
rte_vhost_feature_disable(device_type, feature_mask);
Besides that, few public files and structures should be renamed, to
not let it bind to virtio-net. Specifically, they are:
- virtio_net_device_ops --> vhost_device_ops
- rte_virtio_net.h --> rte_vhost.h

This ABI changes to remove iomem and ioport mapping in igb_uio. The
purpose of this changes was to fix a bug: when DPDK app crashes,
those devices by igb_uio are not stopped either DPDK PMD driver or
igb_uio driver.
Then it has been pointed out by Stephen Hemminger that it has
backward compatibility issue: cannot run old version DPDK on
modified igb_uio.
However, we still have not figure out a new way to fix this bug
without this change. Let's postpone this deprecation announcement
in case this change cannot be avoided.
