Under SRIOV resource management, extra counters are allocated to VFs
from a free pool. If that pool is empty, the ALLOC_RES command for
a counter resource fails -- and this generates a misleading error
message in the message log.
Under SRIOV, each VF is allocated (i.e., guaranteed) 2 counters --
one counter per port. For ETH ports, the RoCE driver requests an
additional counter (above the guaranteed counters). If that request
fails, the VF RoCE driver simply uses the default (i.e., guaranteed)
counter for that port.
Thus, failing to allocate an additional counter does not constitute
a problem, and the error message on the PF when this occurs should
be reduced to debug level.
Finally, to identify the situation that the reason for the failure is
that no resources are available to grant to the VF, we modified the
error returned by mlx4_grant_resource to -EDQUOT (Quota exceeded),
which more accurately describes the error.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
