Hi Jingjing,

I get some compilation errors when I apply this to dpdk-next-net.

/home/bruce/next-net/dpdk-next-net/drivers/net/i40e/i40e_ethdev_vf.c: In function ‘i40evf_add_del_all_mac_addr’:
/home/bruce/next-net/dpdk-next-net/drivers/net/i40e/i40e_ethdev_vf.c:1801:21: error: ‘cmd_result_buffer’ undeclared (first use in this function)
   args.out_buffer = cmd_result_buffer;
                        ^

This is with Fedora 23 with gcc 5.3.1
