Turn on SR-IOV on the PF device
# echo 2 > /sys/class/net/enp4s0f0/device/sriov_numvfs
Verify the VF MAC addresses were provisioned correctly
# cat /sys/class/net/enp4s0f0/device/sriov_numvfs

# ip link show dev enp4s0f0

Unbind VFs

Change mode to switchdev on the PF device
This will also create the VF representor netdevices in the host OS
# devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:04:00.0 mode switchdev
Change e-switch inline-mode
# devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:04:00.0 inline-mode transport
Enable TC rule offload in the driver
# ethtool -K enp4s0f0 hw-tc-offload on
# ethtool -K enp4s0f0_0 hw-tc-offload on
# ethtool -K enp4s0f0_1 hw-tc-offload on
Make sure to bring up the PF and representor netdevices
# ip link set dev enp4s0f0 up
# ip link set dev enp4s0f0_0 up
# ip link set dev enp4s0f0_1 up
Enable hardware offload in OVS
# ovs-vsctl set Open_vSwitch . other_config:hw-offload=true
