Brett Creeley 51efbbdf1d ice: Manage VF's MAC address for both legacy and new cases
Currently there is no way for a VF driver to specify if it wants to
change it's hardware address. New bits are being added to virtchnl.h
in struct virtchnl_ether_addr that allow for the VF to correctly
communicate this information. However, legacy VF drivers that don't
support the new virtchnl.h bits still need to be supported. Make a
best effort attempt at saving the VF's primary/device address in the
legacy case and depend on the VIRTCHNL_ETHER_ADDR_PRIMARY type for
the new case.

Legacy case - If a unicast MAC is being added and the
hw_lan_addr.addr is empty, then populate it. This assumes that the
address is the VF's hardware address. If a unicast MAC is being
added and the hw_lan_addr.addr is not empty, then cache it in the
legacy_last_added_umac.addr. If a unicast MAC is being deleted and it
matches the hw_lan_addr.addr, then zero the hw_lan_addr.addr.
Also, if the legacy_last_added_umac.addr has not expired, copy the
legacy_last_added_umac.addr into the hw_lan_addr.addr. This is done
because we cannot guarantee the order of VIRTCHNL_OP_ADD_ETH_ADDR and
VIRTCHNL_OP_DEL_ETH_ADDR.

New case - If a unicast MAC is being added and it's specified as
VIRTCHNL_ETHER_ADDR_PRIMARY, then replace the current
hw_lan_addr.addr. If a unicast MAC is being deleted and it's type
is specified as VIRTCHNL_ETHER_ADDR_PRIMARY, then zero the
hw_lan_addr.addr.

Untrusted VFs - Only allow above legacy/new changes to their
hardware address if the PF has not set it administratively via
iproute2.

Trusted VFs - Always allow above legacy/new changes to their
hardware address even if the PF has administratively set it via
iproute2.

Also, change the variable dflt_lan_addr to hw_lan_addr to clearly
represent the purpose of this variable since it's purpose is to
act as a hardware programmed MAC address for the VF.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
