Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/3] support setting i40e VF MAC address from DPDK host side
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2016 16:40:20 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1453970423-15234-1-git-send-email-helin.zhang@intel.com> (raw)

It adds pre-setting i40e VF MAC addresses from DPDK PF host side,
during host port initialization, by introduing a new port
configuration element. It then can pre-set VF MAC addresses
before any launching VFs, and the VF MAC addresses will not be
random each time launching a VF.
There should be no ABI broken, as ABI changes
in 'struct rte_eth_conf' has already been announced in R2.2.

Helin Zhang (3):
  i40e: add setting VF MAC address in DPDK PF host
  i40evf: use ether interface for validating MAC address
  app/testpmd: set default MAC addresses for each VF
