Subject: configure VF parameters from PF domain

Hi,

I am verifying the functionality  of Intel 82576 based NIC card on
Xen.  VF device is assigned(passthrough) to a VM.

I can configure the MAC, VLAN parameter of VF in the VM domain on the
VF interface.  But, I want have control over the VF from PF domain.
i.e I should be able to configure VF MAC, VLAN parameters from PF
domain.

Is there any tool available ? Else give me pointers how the above can
be achieved? Is there a way to preconfigure VF parameters before
assigning VF to VM.

Regards,
-Satish
