Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to enhanced virtual function capabilities in a virtualized network environment. In general, devices may comprise physical and virtualized resources. The physical resources may comprise at least a network adaptor that may handle incoming data from a network and outgoing data to the network. The virtualized resources may comprise at least one virtual machine (VM) and a corresponding interface. The corresponding interface may be one of a physical interface, a virtual interface or a “super” virtual interface. The physical interface may provide a first set of capabilities allowing the VM to access (e.g., control) at least the network adaptor. The virtual interface may provide a second set of capabilities that is a subset of the first set. The super virtual interface may provide a third set of capabilities including the second set of capabilities and at least one additional capability from the first set of capabilities.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a network interface controller. The network interface controller includes a portion of a hybrid software-defined networking (“SDN”) controller, the portion of the hybrid SDN controller including a service abstraction layer module (“SAL”) and a southbound application programming interface (“SB API”), the SAL including a representation of a physical network.
