Subject: [PATCH v3 2/6] common/sfc_efx/base: indicate dummy netport properties on VF
Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2026 16:56:20 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260814125624.13372-3-ivan.malov@arknetworks.am> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260814125624.13372-1-ivan.malov@arknetworks.am>
Starting with MCFW version 1.4.0.8, Medford4 adapters support the use
of the netport MCDI for port configuration by a VF; however, the MCDI
which retrieves fixed port properties is not permitted for use by VFs.
Fill in dummy values sufficient for the DPDK driver to start on a VF.
Signed-off-by: Ivan Malov <ivan.malov@arknetworks.am>
