> Subject: [PATCH v4 0/7] add Intel DCF PMD support
>
> A DCF (Device Config Function) based approach is proposed where a device
> bound to the device's VF0 can act as a sole controlling entity to exercise
> advance functionality (such as switch, ACL) for rest of the VFs.
>
> The DCF works as a standalone PMD to support this function, which shares
> the ice PMD flow control core function and the iavf virtchnl mailbox core
> module.
>
> v4:
> Change the alarm handler to thread service, since it will need to do more
> work.
>
> v3:
> 1. Fixed the error log message format.
> 2. Fixed some memory allocation check.
> 3. Fixed some code style issue and commmit message description.
>
> v2:
> 1. update the iavf patchset link.
> 2. split more patches for making this work be more understandable
> 3. fix the log function usage, devargs checking from v1.
>
> Haiyue Wang (7):
> net/iavf: stop the PCI probe in DCF mode
> net/ice: add the DCF hardware initialization
> net/ice: acquire and disable the DCF capability
> net/ice: handle the AdminQ command by DCF
> net/ice: export the DDP definition symbols
> net/ice: handle the PF initialization by DCF
> net/ice: get the VF hardware index in DCF
