[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net-next v8 1/7] if_link: Add an additional parameter to ifla_vf_info for RSS querying

Vlad Zolotarov vladz at cloudius-systems.com
Wed Mar 25 17:42:36 UTC 2015


Add configuration setting for drivers to allow/block an RSS Redirection Table and
a Hash Key querying for discrete VFs.

On some devices VF share the mentioned above information with PF and querying it may
adduce a theoretical security risk. We want to let a system administrator to decide if he/she
wants to take this risk or not.
