Thanks Alex. Here is my observation for my test:
Before spawning the VFs, I can configure large MTU for the 82599 PFs.
After spawning the VFs, I cannot configure large MTU for either the VFs or for
the PFs.
So it seems to me that the Jumbo frame support is disabled in the PF once it
spawns VFs.
We are currently working on a software workaround. It requires changes
to both the PF and VF in order to support it.
The likely implementation will require enabling Jumbo frames on the PF
in order to enable Jumbo frames on the VFs, and any legacy VFs will be
disabled at that time.
Thanks,
Alex
It is not going to be fixed in 82599. There isn't any plan for a new rev of HW.
The issue was solved in the next gen product. i.e., X-540.
Best regards,
Lior.

Hi Lior,
Thanks for the info. So it is the limitation in 82599 HW. Does Intel have any
roadmap to fix this?
Thanks.
Best,
Weirong

Hi Weirong,
Jumbo frame is not supported on 82599 Virtual Function driver due to a HW
limitation.
It is supported only on X540 VF driver.
Regards,
Lior.
