Flow Bifurcation is a mechanism which uses features of advanced Ethernet devices to split traffic between queues. It provides the capability to let the kernel driver and DPDK driver co-exist and take advantage of both. It is achieved by using SR-IOV and the NIC's advanced filtering. This patch describes Flow Bifurcation and adds the user guide for ixgbe and i40e NICs. Signed-off-by: Jingjing Wu <jingjing.wu@intel.com> Acked-by: John McNamara <john.mcnamara@intel.com>
