OK, thanks for the detailed background,  before I didn't  know the limitation in the hardware.

Thanks & Best Wishes,
Trigger Huang

Hi Trigger,

In this case this change is a clear NAK.

> I suggest to remove this feature from SR-IOV, as my concern is,  some weird bugs may be cased by it in the Virtualization heavy stress test.
And I really think we should keep it to make sure that we have the same handling for bare metal as for SRIOV.

We will never be able to use this under SRIOV because of limitation in the hardware.

What we could maybe do is check the response code from the PSP firmware if it correctly ignored the commands under SR-IOV, but I think the response code is the same for ignoring as for executing the commands.

Regards,
Christian.
