Subject: [PATCH net-next V3 03/15] devlink: Add 'total_vfs' generic device param
Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2025 14:47:56 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250425214808.507732-4-saeed@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250425214808.507732-1-saeed@kernel.org>
From: Vlad Dumitrescu <vdumitrescu@nvidia.com>
NICs are typically configured with total_vfs=0, forcing users to rely
on external tools to enable SR-IOV (a widely used and essential feature).
Add total_vfs parameter to devlink for SR-IOV max VF configurability.
Enables standard kernel tools to manage SR-IOV, addressing the need for
flexible VF configuration.
