Thread-topic: [xen/stable-2.6.32.x PATCH 0/5] SR-IOV: Backport VF MAC and VLAN configuration to 2.6.32.x
This series of patches is a back port of patches originally inluded
in the Linux 2.6.34 kernel to the xen/2.6.32.x branch.  Authors of
the original patches are CC'd.

The purpose of the patches is to allow configuration of SR-IOV virtual
function MAC address and VLAN ID via the physical function driver in
those drivers that support SR-IOV and export the required netdev ops
functions.

The commits from the original patches in the Linux 2.6.34 kernel git
logs are:

commit fb8a0d9d1bfd1e4355f307e86a6da7209eefd5f3
commit b280da8d54b8d82b52f368a8703b7ada6c1744d5
commit 95c26df829ba4a25f40595cadb4c9433883cbe28
commit ebc08a6f47ee76ecad8e9f26c26e6ec9b46ca659
commit c02db8c6290bb992442fec1407643c94cc414375

You can test that the patches are working right by downloading the Intel
ixgbe driver Revision 2.0.84.9 from sourceforge.
