> Subject: [PATCH v4] net/iavf: deprecate i40evf pmd
> 
> The i40evf PMD will be deprecated, iavf will be the only VF driver for
> Intel 700 serial (i40e) NIC family. To reach this, there will be 2 steps:
> 
> Step 1: iavf will be the default VF driver, while i40evf still can be
> selected by devarg: "driver=i40evf".
> This is covered by this patch, which include:
> 1) add all 700 serial NIC VF device ID into iavf PMD
> 2) skip probe if devargs contain "driver=i40evf" in iavf
> 3) continue probe if devargs contain "driver=i40evf" in i40evf
> 
> Step 2: i40evf and related devarg are removed, this will happen at DPDK
> 21.11
> 
> Between step 1 and step 2, no new feature will be added into i40evf except
> bug fix.

Put the i40evf PCI device check here, then code will be simple,
and the design will be clear, I think. ;-)

	if (id != IAVF_DEV_ID_VF &&
	    id != IAVF_DEV_ID_VF_HV &&
#ifdef X722_A0_SUPPORT
	    id != I40E_DEV_ID_X722_A0_VF &&
#endif
	    id != IAVF_DEV_ID_X722_VF)
			return 0;

We can merge 'iavf_is_i40evf_device_id' into 'iavf_drv_i40evf_selected', then
the check code will be simple.
