Currently, when the driver loads, it sends a request to add VLAN 0 to the VLAN table. For the PF, this is honored, and VLAN 0 is indeed set. For the VF, this request is silently converted into a request for the default VLAN as defined by either the switch vid or the PF vid. This results in the odd behavior that the VLAN table doesn't appear consistent between the PF and the VF. Furthermore, setting a MAC filter with VLAN 0 is generally considered an invalid configuration by the switch, and since commit 856dfd69e84f ("fm10k: Fix multicast mode synch issues", 2016-03-03) we've had code which prevents us from ever sending such a request. Since there's not really a good reason to keep VLAN 0 in the VLAN table, stop requesting it in fm10k_restore_rx_state(). This might seem to indicate that we would no longer properly configure the MAC and VLAN tables for the default vid. However, due to the way that fm10k_find_next_vlan() behaves, it will always return the default_vid as enabled.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
