Adding sysfs entries to read/write VF's Node GUID.
This abbility will enable sys-admin to configure node GUID for VFs the

way it is done for VF's port GUIDs.


Hi Yuval,

The following commit in iproute2 by Eli Cohen added a standard way to
configure node/port GUID using IPoIB netdev:

d91fb3f4c7e4 Add support for configuring Infiniband GUIDs

The configuration will be done in the following way:
    ip link set dev ib0 vf 0 node_guid 00:02:c9:03:00:21:6e:70
    ip link set dev ib0 vf 0 port_guid 00:02:c9:03:00:21:6e:78

Can't this be used here as well?

This could work as well. Does this has any dependency with
'iproute' version ? In other words does this kernel patch
needs any iproute patch ?
