> This set of patches makes way for the implementation of EF10 > SR-IOV driver starting with some cleanup code. > NIC specific SR-IOV functions are moved to their own header > and netdev_ops are made generic instead of being NIC specific > > Next in line comes the patch to enable VF's using sriov_configure. > VEB vswitching hierarchy is set up next followed by patches to > prepare sfc driver to bind to enabled VF's > > This is followed by patch to support use of shared RSS contexts > which makes VF's use shared RSS contexts in all cases. > > Patch series ends with a patch to bind the sfc driver to the > enabled VF's which creates network interfaces corresponding to > the VF's. > > Coming up soon are the patches to set_vf_mac, set_vf_config, > set_vf_vlan, vf_spoofcheck, etc. > > These patches have been tested with and without CONFIG_SFC_SRIOV. > In the case of CONFIG_SFC_SRIOV=y enabling of VF's using > sriov_configure is also tested. The enabled VF's bind to the > installed sfc driver succesfully to create network interfaces. > In the case of CONFIG_SFC_SRIOV=n enabling of VF's using > sriov_configure returns the correct error message: > "Function not implemented".
