You wrote in previous message that VFs should be created after switchdev mode is enabled. Now you are writting that they are created based on rep_cnt (so assuming VFs have been created before). What is the correct order? # echo 1 x > sriov_numvfs # devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:ca:00.0 mode switchdev or # devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:ca:00.0 mode switchdev # echo 1 x > sriov_numvfs or you can create VFs before and after? From looking at the drivers code it looks like driver bnxt supports that. I am not familiar with nfp and bnxt driver but based on code in current kernel version it looks like nfp creates representor when switching mode only for physical and PF types, VF representor type is created when the VF is created. Bnxt support VF representor creation before and after switching mode. In ice port representors are created during VFs creation only. I am not against your solution, only pointing that it can lead to some problems. Thanks, Michal > Thanks, > Geetha. > > >Thanks, > >Michal > > > >> > > >> >Different order can be problematic.
