[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/3] i40e: add setting VF MAC address in DPDK PF host

Helin Zhang helin.zhang at intel.com
Thu Jan 28 09:40:21 CET 2016


It adds pre-setting the VF MAC addresses from DPDK PF host
side before any VF being initialized, by introducing a new
element of 'struct rte_vf_conf' in 'struct rte_eth_conf'.
It supports up to 128 VFs per physical port of setting VF
MAC addresses.
