This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- yakkety' to 'verification-done-yakkety'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-yakkety' to 'verification-failed- yakkety'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

Mellanox's drivers are not upstream, but they are available from here: https://www.mellanox.com/page/products_dyn?product_family=26&mtag=linux_sw_drivers&ssn=3nnhohirh5htv6dnp1uk7tf487 While this configuration is not explicitly listed as supported in the release notes, Microsoft and Mellanox engineers are working on the corresponding Windows Server 2016 PF driver to support this VF driver in operation in Ubuntu guests. I file file a corresponding rebase request to pick up the PCI passthrough and other SR-IOV work done for the Hyper-V capabilities in the upstream 4.9 kernel. Only 64-bit support for Ubuntu 16.04's HWE kernel is needed.
