    bnxt_en: add support to enable VF-representors · 4ab0c6a8
    Sathya Perla authored Jul 24, 2017
    
    
    This patch is a part of a patch-set that introduces support for
    VF-reps in the bnxt_en driver. The driver registers eswitch mode
    get/set methods with the devlink interface that allow a user to
    enable SRIOV switchdev mode. When enabled, the driver registers
    a VF-rep netdev object for each VF with the stack. This can
    essentially bring the VFs unders the management perview of the
    hypervisor and applications such as OVS.
    
    The next patch in the series, adds the RX/TX routines and a slim
    netdev implementation for the VF-reps.
