The patch is to add support for MCDI proxy which comes in useful, particularly, while running over VF: few commands will normally fail with EPERM, but in some cases the host driver (i.e. running over the corresponding PF, typically, within a hypervisor) may set itself as a proxy to conduct authorization for the commands coming from VFs; these are forwarded to the corresponding access control application which may decline or approve authorization by replying to the requests; all in all, the guest driver has to process the replies forwarded back by the firmware MC in order to give up gracefully (by setting return code which could be understood by 'libefx') or re-issue the original commands Signed-off-by: Ivan Malov <ivan.malov@oktetlabs.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Rybchenko <arybchenko@solarflare.com> Reviewed-by: Andy Moreton <amoreton@solarflare.com> |
