ECPF connects to the eswitch through vport 0xfffe. ECPF may or may not be the eswitch manager depending on firmware configuration. 1. If ECPF is eswitch manager: ECPF will take over the eswitch manager responsibility. A rep of the host PF shall be created at the ECPF side for the eswitch manager to control. 2. If ECPF is not eswitch manager: host PF will be the eswitch manager, ECPF acts similar as a VF to the host PF. Host PF will be aware of the ECPF vport presence and control it's rep.
