PF, VF and PHY_PORT require that applications have extra knowledge of the underlying NIC and thus are hard to use. Also, the corresponding items depend on the direction attribute (ingress / egress), which complicates their use in applications and interpretation in PMDs. The concept of PORT_ID is ambiguous as it doesn't say whether the port in question is an ethdev or the represented entity. Items and actions PORT_REPRESENTOR, REPRESENTED_PORT should be used instead.
