Scalable function is a lightweight function that has a parent PCI function on which it is deployed. Scalable functions are useful for containers where netdevice and RDMA devices of a scalable function can be assigned to a container. This way, the container can get complete offload capabilities of an eswitch, isolation and dedicated accelerated network device.
