Description

Wanted to create a VF inside an X710 NIC to monitor other VFs within the same parent NIC.

The steps below were followed and the issue is that the last command did not work because sriov directory is not found error occurs:

echo 3 > /sys/class/net/eno1/device/sriov_numvfs
ip link set eno1 vf 0 mac 00:11:22:33:44:66 vlan 2
ip link set eno1 vf 1 mac 00:11:22:33:44:66 vlan 3
ip link set eno1 vf 0 mac 00:11:22:33:44:26

ls /sys/class/net/eno1/device/virtfn2/net/
# eno1v2

# below command is my problem, sriov directory not found
# SR-IOV is enabled on the NIC
echo add 2,3 > /sys/class/net/eno1/device/sriov/2/vlan_mirror

Resolution

  1. Ensure to follow the SR-IOV configuration based on this guide.
  2. Install the latest Physical Function (PF) and Virtual Function(VF) drivers.
