+Generic Flow API support
+------------------------
+
+Generic Flow API is supported. The baseline support is:
+
+- **1200 series VICs**
+
+ 5-tuple exact Flow support for 1200 series adapters. This allows:
+
+ - Attributes: ingress
+ - Items: ipv4, ipv6, udp, tcp (must exactly match src/dst IP
+ addresses and ports and all must be specified).
+ - Actions: queue and void
+ - Selectors: 'is'
+
+- **1300 series VICS with Advanced filters disabled**
+
+ With advanced filters disabled, an IPv4 or IPv6 item must be specified
+ in the pattern.
+
+ - Attributes: ingress
+ - Items: eth, ipv4, ipv6, udp, tcp, vxlan, inner eth, ipv4, ipv6, udp, tcp
+ - Actions: queue and void
+ - Selectors: 'is', 'spec' and 'mask'. 'last' is not supported
+ - In total, up to 64 bytes of mask is allowed across all haeders
+
+- **1300 series VICS with Advanced filters enabled**
+
+ - Attributes: ingress
+ - Items: eth, ipv4, ipv6, udp, tcp, vxlan, inner eth, ipv4, ipv6, udp, tcp
+ - Actions: queue, mark, flag and void
+ - Selectors: 'is', 'spec' and 'mask'. 'last' is not supported
+ - In total, up to 64 bytes of mask is allowed across all haeders
+
+More features may be added in future firmware and new versions of the VIC.
+Please refer to the release notes.
+
+Ingress VLAN Rewrite
+--------------------
+
+VIC adapters can tag, untag, or modify the VLAN headers of ingress
+packets. The ingress VLAN rewrite mode controls this behavior. By
+default, it is set to pass-through, where the NIC does not modify the
+VLAN header in any way so that the application can see the original
+header. This mode is sufficient for many applications, but may not be
+suitable for others. Such applications may change the mode by setting
+``devargs`` parameter ``ig-vlan-rewrite`` to one of the following.
+
+- ``pass``: Pass-through mode. The NIC does not modify the VLAN
+ header. This is the default mode.
+
+- ``priority``: Priority-tag default VLAN mode. If the ingress packet
+ is tagged with the default VLAN, the NIC replaces its VLAN header
+ with the priority tag (VLAN ID 0).
+
+- ``trunk``: Default trunk mode. The NIC tags untagged ingress packets
+ with the default VLAN. Tagged ingress packets are not modified. To
+ the application, every packet appears as tagged.
+
+- ``untag``: Untag default VLAN mode. If the ingress packet is tagged
+ with the default VLAN, the NIC removes or untags its VLAN header so
+ that the application sees an untagged packet. As a result, the
+ default VLAN becomes `untagged`. This mode can be useful for
+ applications such as OVS-DPDK performance benchmarks that utilize
+ only the default VLAN and want to see only untagged packets.
