+The VIRTIO_ADMIN_DEVICE_INFO command has no command specific data set by the driver.
+The \field{command} is set to VIRTIO_ADMIN_DEVICE_INFO.
+
+The VIRTIO_ADMIN_DEVICE_INFO upon success, returns a data buffer that describes a basic information for the target virtio device.
+Upon success, the returned data buffer is of form:
+\begin{lstlisting}

+In this case, the \field{vf_number} value can't be greater than TotalVFs value as defined in the PCI
+specification and can't be equal to zero. If bit 0 is not set, the driver will ignore \field{vf_number}.}
