Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 04/13] cxgbe: add probe to initialize VF devices
Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2018 04:18:22 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f33fcb60f5134e5f9fcf699c7cdcc3ceca0be943.1520720053.git.rahul.lakkireddy@chelsio.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1520720053.git.rahul.lakkireddy@chelsio.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1520720053.git.rahul.lakkireddy@chelsio.com>
From: Kumar Sanghvi <kumaras@chelsio.com>
Add probe to initialize VF devices. Separate init/de-init paths
for PF and VF. Do firmware state initialization wrt VF and retrieve
various operational parameters by querying firmware. Finally configure
and initialize ports.
