+=========================
+vhost-vDPA generic device
+=========================
+
+This document explains the usage of the vhost-vDPA generic device.
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+vDPA(virtio data path acceleration) device is a device that uses a datapath
+which complies with the virtio specifications with vendor specific control
+path.
+
+QEMU provides two types of vhost-vDPA devices to enable the vDPA device, one
+is type sensitive which means QEMU needs to know the actual device type
+(e.g. net, blk, scsi) and another is called "vhost-vDPA generic device" which
+is type insensitive
+
+The vhost-vDPA generic device builds on the vhost-vdpa subsystem and virtio
+subsystem. It is quite small, but it can support any type of virtio device.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Prepare the vhost-vDPA backends first:
+
+::
+  host# ls -l /dev/vhost-vdpa-*
+  crw------- 1 root root 236, 0 Nov  2 00:49 /dev/vhost-vdpa-0
+
+Start QEMU with virtio-mmio bus:
+
+::
+  host# qemu-system                                                  \
+      -M microvm -m 512 -smp 2 -kernel ... -initrd ...               \
+      -device vhost-vdpa-device,vhostdev=/dev/vhost-vdpa-0           \
+      ...
+
+Start QEMU with virtio-pci bus:
+
+::
+  host# qemu-system                                                  \
+      -M pc -m 512 -smp 2                                            \
+      -device vhost-vdpa-device-pci,vhostdev=/dev/vhost-vdpa-0       \
+      ...\
