Re: [E1000-devel] i40e driver - trusted VF features

[Laurent D. <lau...@gm...>]

There was one other feature that seem to be enabled when a VF is trusted :
more than 8 vlans on a single VF (while not using vlan filters)

It seems to be highly dependent on drivers/firmware/NIC cards to pass more
than 8 vlans on a single VF, we had to set it trusted.
