Thanks, > Alex That would work, but I don't like the idea of saying (in sysfs device/sriov_totalvfs) "I have some VFs" only to say "not really, ha" when someone tries to use them. At least, not when we knew all along. Let's look at this from a different angle: If I posted a patch to make pci_sriov_set_totalvfs(dev, 0) do what I want, would there be any objections to taking it? It seems like a sane API, the only existing (in-tree) users never pass 0, and it shouldn't require too ugly an implementation. -Edward The information contained in this message is confidential and is intended for the addressee(s) only.
