instead log error nad move on, that helps to avoid infinite boot cycle if something is not working. Signed-off-by: Pavel Abramov <uncle.decart@gmail.com> (cherry picked from commit 3e61cfd)
files under /sys are not files, those are calls, so we shouldn't try to create files if they are not explicitly present, that can cause us trouble Signed-off-by: Pavel Abramov <uncle.decart@gmail.com> (cherry picked from commit a430608)
currently we create Virtual Function VF only to pass it through to the VM we are not initializing interface on the host side, thus we shoudn't try to test VF or probe it for last resort. Former obstructs EVE from passing through VFs due to race condition, i.e. we start to test at some point and only some part of VFs is actually passed since we're not considering VFs Network devices (isNet is false) we pass them through and won't try them for last resort. Signed-off-by: Pavel Abramov <uncle.decart@gmail.com> (cherry picked from commit eb8be0f)
if controller does not send configuration for Virtual Functions (even empty ones) we ignore it and create bundles based on information from the system it also includes expansion of debug messages Signed-off-by: Pavel Abramov <uncle.decart@gmail.com> (cherry picked from commit 0d66949)
certain drivers (like igb on Intel I350 NIC) put Physical Function (PF) interface in DOWN state, which doesn't work for us, since Virtual Functions (VF) need PF to be in UP state. We handle this in SR-IOV package, specifically after creating VFs. This is done intentionally not in nim. We don't want to make nim that robust, because some EVE users want to change configuration manually and that might trip them. Signed-off-by: Pavel Abramov <uncle.decart@gmail.com> (cherry picked from commit b622713)
