>  IAVF_FDIR_FLTR_DIS_PENDING
>  IAVF_FDIR_FLTR_INACTIVE

> Current FDIR state machines (SM) are not adequate to handle few scenarios in

> So with new SM, during link DOWN filters are marked as INACTIVE in the iavf
> list but removed from PF. After link UP, SM will transition from INACTIVE to
> ADD_REQUEST to restore the filter.

> Similarly, with VF reset, filters will be removed from the PF, but marked as

> Steps to reproduce:
> -------------------
> 
> 1. Create a VF. Here VF is enp8s0.
> 
> 2. Assign IP addresses to VF and link partner and ping continuously from
> remote. Here remote IP is 1.1.1.1.
> 
> 3. Check default RX Queue of traffic.
> 
> ethtool -S enp8s0 | grep -E "rx-[[:digit:]]+\.packets"
> 
> 4. Add filter - change default RX Queue (to 15 here)
> 
> ethtool -U ens8s0 flow-type ip4 src-ip 1.1.1.1 action 15 loc 5
> 
> 5. Ensure filter gets added and traffic is received on RX queue 15 now.
> 
> Link event testing:
> -------------------
> 6. Bring VF link down and up. If traffic flows to configured queue 15, test is
> success, otherwise it is a failure.
> 
> Reset event testing:
> --------------------
> 7. Reset the VF. If traffic flows to configured queue 15, test is success,
> otherwise it is a failure.
