+/* VIRTCHNL_ETHER_ADDR_LEGACY
+ * Prior to adding the @type member to virtchnl_ether_addr, there were 2 pad
+ * bytes. Moving forward all VF drivers should not set type to
+ * VIRTCHNL_ETHER_ADDR_LEGACY. This is only here to not break previous/legacy
+ * behavior. The control plane function (i.e. PF) can use a best effort method
+ * of tracking the primary/device unicast in this case, but there is no
+ * guarantee and functionality depends on the implementation of the PF.

+ * primary/device unicast MAC address filter for VIRTCHNL_OP_ADD_ETH_ADDR and
+ * VIRTCHNL_OP_DEL_ETH_ADDR. This allows for the underlying control plane
+ * function (i.e. PF) to accurately track and use this MAC address for
+ * displaying on the host and for VM/function reset.
