Slow path means allowing packet to go from uplink to representor and from representor to correct VF on Rx site and from VF to representor and to uplink on Tx site. To accomplish this driver, has to set correct Tx descriptor. When packet is sent from representor to VF, destination should be set to VF VSI. When packet is sent from uplink port destination should be uplink to bypass switch infrastructure and send packet outside. On Rx site driver should check source VSI field from Rx descriptor and based on that forward packed to correct netdev. To allow this there is a target netdevs table in control plane VSI struct.

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.
