[ Upstream commit 11c9cc95f818f0f187e9b579a7f136f532b42445 ] == Description == Setting values of pm attributes through sysfs should not be allowed in SRIOV mode. These calls will not be processed by FW anyway, but error handling on sysfs level should be improved. == Changes == This patch prohibits performing of all set commands in SRIOV mode on sysfs level. It offers better error handling as calls that are not allowed will not be propagated further. == Test == Writing to any sysfs file in passthrough mode will succeed. Writing to any sysfs file in ONEVF mode will yield error: "calling process does not have sufficient permission to execute a command".

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.
