CN10K MAC block (RPM) and Octeontx2 MAC block (CGX) both supports PFC flow control and 802.3X flow control pause frames. Each MAC block supports max 4 LMACS and AF driver assigns same (MAC,LMAC) to PF and its VFs. As PF and its share same (MAC,LMAC) pair we need resource management to address below scenarios 1. Maintain PFC and 8023X pause frames mutually exclusive. 2. Reject disable flow control request if other PF or Vfs enabled it.

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.
