When using the device emulation feature (introduced in Bluefield-1 SOC), a privileged function (the device emulation manager) will be able to create a channel to execute commands on behalf of the emulated function. This channel will be a general object of type VHCA_TUNNEL that will have a unique ID for each emulated function. This ID will be passed in each cmd that will be issued by the emulation SW in a well known offset in the command header. This channel is needed since the emulated function doesn't have a normal command interface to the HCA HW, but some basic configuration for that function is needed (e.g. initialize and enable the HCA). For that matter, a specific command-set was defined and only those commands will be issued by the HCA.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
