The problem is multiple lldp agents advertising dcbx tlvs on the same link is not spec compliant. In the VF case there may or may not be a hardware lldp engine all the VF driver (ie ixgbevf) should need to know is that some other entity is managing the DCB attributes. To reflect this I would propose changing DCB_CAP_DCBX_HW and the comments by removing "HW". The two ideas I had were DCB_CAP_DCBX_READONLY or DCB_CAP_DCBX_LLD_MANAGED. Admittedly a bit of a nitpick but its a bit confusing to set the DCBX_HW bit when there really is no HW engine in the 82599 adapter case. Otherwise this all looks good to me. I was hoping someone would get around to this.

DCB_CAP_DCBX_HW implies 3 things: 1. DCBX negotiation is managed by some other entity. 2. The user can use the 'get' routines to get the negotiation results. 3. The user can use the 'set' routines to set the initial configuration for the negotiation. I think No 3. is irrelevant to VFs, that is you don't want multiple VF drivers trying to change the initial configuration settings. I can think of 2 ways to make this distinction, the first is for the VF driver not to support the 'set' routines (or always return an error value). The second is to add another attribute flag: DCB_CAP_DCBX_LLD_CFG which will indicate exactly No 3. while DCB_CAP_DCBX_LLD_MANAGED will indicate No 1. and 2. The VF driver will declare DCB_CAP_DCBX_LLD_MANAGED only and a driver for an embedded DCBX engine will declare both flags. What do you think?

This is inline with how we handle other operations not supported by the lower layer device. Adding another bit would work as well but it seems simpler to only add flags that are needed. Then dcbnl should return EOPNOTSUPP for this case. -- John -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Adding an optional DCBX capability and a pair for get-set routines for setting the device DCBX mode. The DCBX capability is a bit field of supported attributes.
