Description Íñigo Huguet 2022-01-20 07:24:42 UTC
Update sfc driver including latest upstream patches.

There are not many patches to be included, but some of them are fixes and improvements that allow to support XDP in more scenarios, fixing some related errors as well.

Comment 3 Íñigo Huguet 2022-02-10 07:13:34 UTC
I don't know why this BZ didn't change its state automatically. MR has the required approvals and is readyForQA.

Comment 4 Íñigo Huguet 2022-02-22 08:37:58 UTC
@dipatel do you have a prevision on when you will be able to verify this? If it would be possible to do it today we would avoid having to request an exception.
