[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 0/2] enable large VF configuration

[Ting Xu]

This patchset supports to configure up to 256 queue pairs per VF. If
large VF is supported after capability negotiation, VF will request
queues from PF as needed. New virtual channel opcodes and structures
are used to indicate 256 queues, so VF is designed to handle the new
function of configure VSI queues, IRQ mapping and enable/disable queues.
Also, enable VF to query the max RSS queue region for RSS and filter
configuration.
