[dpdk-users] Using PF bound to IGB_UIO, together with sr-iov VFs passed to guests

[Rosen, Rami]

Hi, Ran,

What is the internal error you get when bringing up the 
guest ?

Hi,

I'm having trouble trying to build a scenario were the host has the PF bound to igb_uio, and working with dpdk application, together with sr-iov VFs passthrough to guest machines.

Libvirt is not able to bring up the guest, and exit with internal error.
I assume that the vlan/mac initialization which is working well, when the PF is assigned to ixgbe.k does not work when bound to igb_uio.

Is this an igb_uio issue or libvirt ?
is there a workaround for this ?

Regards
Ran
