Before8d85a7a4f2("PCI/IOV: Allow PF drivers to limit total_VFs to 0"), pci_sriov_set_totalvfs(pdev, 0) meant "we can enable TotalVFs virtual functions". After8d85a7a4f2, it means "we can't enable *any* VFs". That broke this scenario where nfp intends to remove any limit on the number of VFs that can be enabled: nfp_pci_probe nfp_pcie_sriov_read_nfd_limit nfp_rtsym_read_le("nfd_vf_cfg_max_vfs", &err) pci_sriov_set_totalvfs(pf->pdev, 0) # if FW didn't expose a limit ... # userspace writes N to sysfs "sriov_numvfs": sriov_numvfs_store pci_sriov_get_totalvfs # now returns 0 return -ERANGE Prior to8d85a7a4f2, pci_sriov_get_totalvfs() returned TotalVFs, but it now returns 0. Remove the pci_sriov_set_totalvfs(pdev, 0) calls so we don't limit the number of VFs that can be enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
