Subject: RE: Mellanox VF failed to start with hairpin queues

I worked with Haider and found that the VF should be configured as trusted both 
in driver and FW.
I am working on a documentation patch in mlx5.rst to describe the needed steps.

I am not using mlx5 VF in VM. Can you please elaborate on what type of setup 
information you require?
