The ThunderX NIC could be partitioned to up to 128 VFs and thus represented to system. Each VF is mapped to pair BGX:LMAC, and each of VF is configured by kernel individually. Eventually the bunch of VFs could be mapped onto same pair BGX:LMAC and thus could cause several multicast filtering configuration requests to LMAC with the same MAC addresses. This commit is to add ThunderX NIC BGX filtering manipulation routines. Signed-off-by: Vadim Lomovtsev <Vadim.Lomovtsev@cavium.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
