ECPF doesn't support SR-IOV, but an ECPF E-Switch manager shall know the max VFs supported by its peer host PF in order to control those VF vports. The current driver implementation uses the total vfs quantity as provided by the pci sub-system for an upper bound of the VF vports the e-switch code needs to deal with. This obviously can't work as is on ECPF e-switch manager. For now, we use a hard coded value of 128 on such systems.

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.
