Yes, it is set up (and I can view it vi ip link or sysconfig) when I see the op not supported message (after I fi vfs via sysfs, before bringing the vf interface up or reloading igbvf.) Can you please send me dmesg log from the system you are testing this? Looking at the code, it looks like whenever mac.ops.reset_hw() (which sets up mac) is called, igbvf_refresh_ppid() is called as well.
