If I understand you right, considering

* Amazon is recommanding ixgbevf > 2.14.2
* 2.14.2 was released as OOT module on 2014-03-28
* drivers functionnalities are in sync beween in-tree and OOT

then all kernels released after 2014-03-28, starting with 3.14,
should have the same functionalities as the out of tree 2.14.2 driver.

Am I right ?


If yes, I will ask Amazon to update their documentation, because it
confuses some people
( see for instance
https://github.com/coreos/coreos-overlay/issues/1148 )

Thank you

Emmanuel
