Shahed Shaikh says: ==================== qed* : Use trust mode to override forced MAC This patchset adds a support to override forced MAC (MAC set by PF for a VF) when trust mode is enabled using First patch adds a real change to use .ndo_set_vf_trust to override forced MAC and allow user to change VFs from VF interface itself. Second patch takes care of a corner case, where MAC change from VF won't take effect when VF interface is down, by introducing a new TLV (a way to send message from VF to PF) to give a hint to PF to update its bulletin board. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
