hi ,
I have written sample program for usvhost  supported by ovdk.

i have initialized VM using the below command .
On the VM :

I am able to see two interfaces . and working fine with traffic in
rawsocket mode .
my problem is when i bind the interfaces to pmd driver[ ibg_uio ] my
virtual machine is getting hanged . and  i am not able to access it further
.
now my question is . what may be the reason for the behavior . and how can
in debug the root cause .
please help in finding out the problem .
