MAC address setup
-----------------
-mlx5 driver provides mechanism to setup the MAC address of the PCI VF/SF.
-
-The configured MAC address of the PCI VF/SF will be used by netdevice and rdma
-device created for the PCI VF/SF.
-
-- Get the MAC address of the VF identified by its unique devlink port index::
-
- $ devlink port show pci/0000:06:00.0/2
- pci/0000:06:00.0/2: type eth netdev enp6s0pf0vf1 flavour pcivf pfnum 0 vfnum 1
- function:
- hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00
-
-- Set the MAC address of the VF identified by its unique devlink port index::
-
- $ devlink port function set pci/0000:06:00.0/2 hw_addr 00:11:22:33:44:55
