commitebfa440ce3upstream. SR-IOV VFs do not implement the memory enable bit of the command register, therefore this bit is not set in config space after pci_enable_device(). This leads to an unintended difference between PF and VF in hand-off state to the user. We can correct this by setting the initial value of the memory enable bit in our virtualized config space. There's really no need however to ever fault a user on a VF though as this would only indicate an error in the user's management of the enable bit, versus a PF where the same access could trigger hardware faults.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
