Advance SRIOV features for NFVs for Service Providers and Telcos

Registered by Munish

Currently many VNFs are “migrated” from purposely built solutions into virtualized environments and often expect network interfaces (vNICs attached to SR-IOV VFs) to have properties like 802.1Q VLAN trunking, VLAN push/pop, security, mirroring, statistics, QoS, etc, we used to have in traditional switches.
This effort is an attempt to “fill the gap” by adding necessary functionality into NICs Linux kernel driver.
