See the two patches I have posted to this list recently w/respect to the bnx2x. At this point, I have a VF on a 57810 working in the TX direction. I am unable to figure out what is wrong with the RX direction though. The rx packet counters increment but I don't seem to get packet delivery. There is probably a minor issue with bnx2x_fill_accept_flags() being used in both the PF and VF drivers when setting the rx filter but fixing that didn't seem to help. At this point it is a long slog comparing the linux driver to the PMD driver.
