Thread-topic: XenServer 5.6 inbox ixgbe / igb driver doesn't set VLAN filter correctly

1. On the Xen Server 5.6, load the inbox ixgbe driver and enable VFs.

2. Create a Linux RHEL 5.5 guest on the Xen Server 5.6.

3. Assign a SR-IOV VF device to the guest.

4. Assign an IP address to the VF interface of the guest. Make sure  it can ping to the LAN 5. Create a VLAN with the VF interface, and assign an IP address to the VLAN interface.

6. ping to the test client via the VF’s VLAN interface, and didn’t get any response.

************************************************************************

 

If the PF driver is igb driver, configuring the VLAN interface on the VF causes the Xen Server crashes.
