Subject: mlx5 PF and VF Vlan Restrictions

Hello,

Can we have VLAN restrictions at both PF and VF level in mlx5 CX4 driver?

For a particular VF, I would like to restrict VLANs from the PF driver

For e.g, Let's say there is VF0. I would like to restrict the allowed
vlans from the VF0 to be one of 10,20,30.

I would like to do this enforcement at the PF driver.

How do i do this?

So if the VF tries to configure any vlan other than 10,20,30, it should fail.

Also how to communicate the vlans that are allowed to the vf from the PF.

Is this feature already implemented in the mlx5 ?

If not, can anyone please help me understand how to do that.

Thanks so much

Best Regards,
Domingo
