+virtio-net accelerated datapath: STANDBY mode
+=============================================
+
+net_failover enables hypervisor controlled accelerated datapath to virtio-net
+enabled VMs in a transparent manner with no/minimal guest userspace chanages.
+
+To support this, the hypervisor needs to enable VIRTIO_NET_F_STANDBY
+feature on the virtio-net interface and assign the same MAC address to both
+virtio-net and VF interfaces.
+
+Here is an example XML snippet that shows such configuration.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Booting a VM with the above configuration will result in the following 3
+netdevs created in the VM.

+ens10 is the 'failover' master netdev, ens10nsby and ens11 are the slave
+'standby' and 'primary' netdevs respectively.

+Live Migration of a VM with SR-IOV VF & virtio-net in STANDBY mode
+==================================================================
+
+net_failover also enables hypervisor controlled live migration to be supported
+with VMs that have direct attached SR-IOV VF devices by automatic failover to
+the paravirtual datapath when the VF is unplugged.
+
+Here is a sample script that shows the steps to initiate live migration on
+the source hypervisor.
