These changes are applied only if the hostdev has a parent net device (i.e. if it was defined as "<interface type='hostdev'>" rather than just "<hostdev>"). If the parent netdevice has virtual port information, the original virtualport associate functions are called (these set and restore both mac and port profile on an interface). Otherwise, only mac address is set on the device. Note that This is only supported for SR-IOV Virtual Functions (not for standard PCI or USB netdevs), and virtualport association is only supported for 802.1Qbh. For all other types of cards and types of virtualport, a "Config Unsupported" error is returned and the operation fails. Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roprabhu@cisco.com>
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
