Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 01/15] net: enetc: add trusted VF support
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2026 17:18:30 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260610091844.3423693-2-wei.fang@oss.nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260610091844.3423693-1-wei.fang@oss.nxp.com>
From: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@nxp.com>
Some mailbox messages require a higher privilege level to be executed
on behalf of the requesting VF. Introduce a trusted VF flag
(ENETC_VF_FLAG_TRUSTED) and wire up the ndo_set_vf_trust callback via
enetc_pf_set_vf_trust(), which is shared between the enetc and enetc4
PF drivers.
The first message gated on trust is the VF primary MAC address change.
An untrusted VF that attempts to set its own MAC address will receive a
ENETC_MSG_CLASS_ID_PERMISSION_DENY response and the hardware will not
be programmed. To prevent a malicious VM from setting the VF address to
the MAC address of other VFs or PF, thereby eavesdropping on the traffic
of other SIs. Furthermore, a malicious VM that arbitrarily changes the
VF's MAC address can achieve MAC address spoofing and bypass security
policies.
