Devices that does not use managed affinity can not export a vector affinity as the consumer relies on having a static mapping it can map to upper layer affinity (e.g. sw queues). If the driver allows the user to set the device irq affinity, then the affinitization of a long term existing entites is not relevant. For example, nvme-rdma controllers queue-irq affinitization is determined at init time so if the irq affinity changes over time, we are no longer aligned.

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.
