GVE supports two descriptor formats: GQI and DQO. These two formats have
entirely different descriptors, which will be described below.
Addressing Mode
------------------
GVE supports two addressing modes: QPL and RDA.
QPL ("queue-page-list") mode communicates data through a set of
pre-registered pages.
For RDA ("raw DMA addressing") mode, the set of pages is dynamic.
Therefore, the packet buffers can be anywhere in guest memory.
Registers
---------
All registers are MMIO.
