Abstract

A vendor independent interface is provided between a hypervisor and an adjunct partition associated with a self-virtualizing IO resource to effectively abstract away vendor-specific interface details for the self-virtualizing IO resource and its adjunct partition. By doing so, vendor-specific implementation details may be isolated from the configuration and management functionality in a hypervisor, thus minimizing the changes to vendor specific firmware in order to manage new or revised self-virtualizing IO resources.
