i40e: Add vf-true-promisc-support priv flag
This patch adds priv-flag knob to configure global true promisc support. With this patch the user can decide the flavor of promiscuous that the VFs will see when promiscuous mode is enabled on the interface. Since this a global setting for the whole device, the priv-flag is exposed only on the first PF of the device. The default is true promisc support is off, which means the promisc mode for the VF will be limited/defport mode. For the PF, we still will be in limited promisc unless in MFP mode irrespective of the flavor picked through this knob. Usage: On PF0 ethtool --show-priv-flags p261p1 Private flags for p261p1: MFP : off LinkPolling : off flow-director-atr : on veb-stats : off hw-atr-eviction : off vf-true-promisc-support: off to enable setting true promisc ethtool --set-priv-flags p261p1 vf-true-promisc-support on At this point if the VF is set to trust and promisc is enabled on the VF through ip link set ... promisc on The VF/VFs will be able to see ALL ingress traffic Change-Id: I8fac4b6eb1af9ca77b5376b79c50bdce5055bd94 Signed-off-by: NAnjali Singhai Jain <anjali.singhai@intel.com> Tested-by: NAndrew Bowers <andrewx.bowers@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>
