[PATCH 1/9] doc/linux_gsg: replace special characters for (R) symbol

Wed Mar 2 18:22:09 CET 2022


Some IDEs, such as eclipse, complained on save about the use of special
characters in the (R) symbol in linux GSG doc. We can replace those with
the equivalent "|reg|" text, and including isonum.txt.

+In addition, to run the DPDK with Intel\ |reg| VT-d, the ``iommu=pt`` kernel parameter must be used when using ``igb_uio`` driver.
 This results in pass-through of the DMAR (DMA Remapping) lookup in the host.
 Also, if ``INTEL_IOMMU_DEFAULT_ON`` is not set in the kernel, the ``intel_iommu=on`` kernel parameter must be used too.
 This ensures that the Intel IOMMU is being initialized as expected.
