This patch adds TC feature for VFs also. When MCAM rules are allocated for a VF then either TC or ntuple filters can be used. Below are the commands to use TC feature for a VF(say lbk0): devlink dev param set pci/0002:01:00.1 name mcam_count value 16 \ cmode runtime ethtool -K lbk0 hw-tc-offload on ifconfig lbk0 up tc qdisc add dev lbk0 ingress tc filter add dev lbk0 parent ffff: protocol ip flower skip_sw \ dst_mac 98:03:9b:83:aa:12 action police rate 100Mbit burst 5000 Also to modify any fields of the hardware context with NIX_AQ_INSTOP_WRITE command then corresponding masks of those fields must be set as per hardware. This was missing in ingress ratelimiting context. This patch sets those masks also.

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.
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.
