Linux kernel source tree
The MLX driver was not updating its control virtqueue size at set_vq_num
and instead always initialized to MLX5_CVQ_MAX_ENT (16) at
setup_cvq_vring.
Qemu would try to set the size to 64 by default, however, because the
CVQ size always was initialized to 16, an error would be thrown when
sending >16 control messages (as used-ring entry 17 is initialized to 0).
For example, starting a guest with x-svq=on and then executing the
following command would produce the error below:
# for i in {1..20}; do ifconfig eth0 hw ether XX:xx:XX:xx:XX:XX; done
qemu-system-x86_64: Insufficient written data (0)
[ 435.331223] virtio_net virtio0: Failed to set mac address by vq command.
SIOCSIFHWADDR: Invalid argument

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
