MCDI proxy authorization may be used if privileged PCI function (physical function) would like to intercept and authorize MCDI requests done by unprivileged (e.g. virtual) PCI function. It may be used to control unprivileged function Rx mode (e.g. promiscuous, all-multicast), MTU and default MAC address change requests etc. Current libefx support is limited to client-side which is required to work when function requests need to be authorized. Server side support required to request and do the authorization is not implemented yet. EFSYS_OPT_MCDI_PROXY_AUTH should be enabled to use it. From Solarflare Communications Inc.
