But you cannot leverage the existing code like this. The register IXGBE_VMVIR is only for enable/disable. We cannot write the VLAN ID into it. If you want to merge the 2 things, enabling/disabling and setting VLAN ID together. I think we need a totally new implementation. So NACK. > ctrl |= IXGBE_VMVIR_VLANA_DEFAULT; > } else { > ctrl = 0; > diff --git a/drivers/net/ixgbe/rte_pmd_ixgbe.h > b/drivers/net/ixgbe/rte_pmd_ixgbe.h > index 2fdf530..c2fb826 100644 > --- a/drivers/net/ixgbe/rte_pmd_ixgbe.h > +++ b/drivers/net/ixgbe/rte_pmd_ixgbe.h > @@ -99,16 +99,17 @@ int rte_pmd_ixgbe_set_vf_mac_anti_spoof(uint8_t port, > uint16_t vf, uint8_t on); > * The port identifier of the Ethernet device. > * @param vf > * ID specifying VF. > - * @param on > - * 1 - Enable VF's vlan insert. > - * 0 - Disable VF's vlan insert > + * @param vlan_id > + * 0 - Disable VF's vlan insert. > + * n - Enable; n is inserted as the vlan id. > * > * @return > * - (0) if successful. > * - (-ENODEV) if *port* invalid. > * - (-EINVAL) if bad parameter. > */ > -int rte_pmd_ixgbe_set_vf_vlan_insert(uint8_t port, uint16_t vf, uint8_t on); > +int rte_pmd_ixgbe_set_vf_vlan_insert(uint8_t port, uint16_t vf, > + uint16_t vlan_id); > > /** > * Enable/Disable tx loopback > -- > 1.9.1
