Introduce a new API that exposes a list of vlans per VF (IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST), giving the ability for user-space application to specify it for the VF as an option to support 802.1ad (VST QinQ). We introduce struct vf_vlan_info, which extends struct vf_vlan and adds an optional VF VLAN proto parameter. Default VLAN-protocol is 802.1Q. Add IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST in addition to IFLA_VF_VLAN to keep backward compatibility with older kernel versions. Suitable ip link tool command examples: - Set vf vlan protocol 802.1ad (S-TAG) ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1ad - Set vf vlan S-TAG and vlan C-TAG (VST QinQ) ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1ad vlan 30 proto 802.1Q - Set vf to VST (802.1Q) mode ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1Q - Or by omitting the new parameter (backward compatible) ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 Signed-off-by: Moshe Shemesh <moshe@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@mellanox.com> |
