+===========================
+NVMe Live Migration Support
+===========================
+
+Introduction
+------------
+To support live migration, NVMe device designs its own implementation,
+including five new specific admin commands and a capability flag in
+the vendor-specific field in the identify controller data structure to
+support VF's live migration usage. Software can use these live migration
+admin commands to get device migration state data size, save and load the
+data, suspend and resume the given VF device. They are submitted by software
+to the NVMe PF device's admin queue and ignored if placed in the VF device's
+admin queue. This is due to the NVMe VF device being passed to the virtual
+machine in the virtualization scenario. So VF device's admin queue is not
+available for the hypervisor to submit VF device live migration commands.
+The capability flag in the identify controller data structure can be used by
+software to detect if the NVMe device supports live migration. The following
+chapters introduce the detailed format of the commands and the capability flag.

+The SAVE_DATA command is used to save the NVMe VF internal data for live migration. When firmware
+receives this command, it will save the admin queue states, save some registers, drain IO SQs
+and CQs, save every IO queue state, disable the VF controller, and transfer all data to the
+host memory through DMA.

+According to NVMe specification, the bytes from 3072 to 4095 are vendor-specific fields.
+NVMe device uses the 3072 bytes in the identify controller data structure to indicate
+whether live migration is supported. 0x0 means live migration is not supported. 0x01 means
+live migration is supported, and other values are reserved.
