Hello David,
This is V2 of a patch set that adds SRIOV support for ConnectX2 and ConnectX3
HW for Ethernet Link layer.
Infiniband and RoCE SRIOV support will be added at later stage
In ConnectX, nearly all device resources can be associated with any function.
Once allocated, these resources can be manipulated exclusively by their
associated functions in the same manner as in the single-function case.
The same driver acts both as pf and vf driver.
mlx4_en module (Ethernet specific code) remains virtualization unaware and all
the multifunction logic is
implemented in mlx4_core module.
To keep that separation, some code (mainly port management) moved from mlx4_en
to mlx4_core module.
The device continues to use a single HCA Command Register (HCR), which is owned
by the pf.
Thus, the pf is given the role of allocating resources to vfs, and controlling
shared resource (such as ports).
A dedicated HW communication channel is used to transfer resource allocation and
modification requests from vfs to the pf, and events from the pf to the vfs.
Consequently, no hypervisor-specific services are required for pf-vf
communication.
All vfs resources are tracked by the pf and cleaned up in case the vf doesn't
close gracefully.
The resource tracker also prevents untrusted vfs to manipulate resources that
belong to other functions.

Change from V1:
- Fixed warnings found by -Wswitch-enum compilation flag.
Change from V0:
- Use enum {MLX4_CMD_NATIVE, MLX4_CMD_WRAPPED} instead of 1/0 when calling
mlx4_cmd
- Added pf context behavior to mlx4_func_cap and query func cap
- Removed ifdef CONFIG_PCI_IOV, all modules parameters do not depend on this
define anymore
- sr_iov module parameter changed to num_vfs
- made probe_vf parameter writable, allows binding of VF back to hypervisor
