We cross check available public documentation with HW team and there is no 
public documentation for this feature yet. We didn't get any exact day when 
documentation is going to be released.
Unfortunately it is not the first or even last time when this is happening but I 
still think is good to get this feature done properly till the time when 
documentation catch it up. Please let me know if you have any concern about it.

Thanks,
Michal
