It is about VMs on IOMMU capable systems. What if you need to use SRIOV
with IXGBE, or IGB devices?
For some DPDK cases, like Mellanox or virtio, you do not need to use
VFIO/UIO into the guests, so

Hi,
I know a bit about VFIO implementation, have been debugging IOMMU (intel)
problems, know how QEMU/KVM work about using legacy or vfio attached
devices, and I'm the maintainer of a DPDK PMD recently accepted upstream
which requires our particular UIO driver (not maintained upstream). So I

Hello,
I am not involved in the vfio very much, however, I was watching some
vfio-related code in last few weeks. It looks promising to me and
IMHO it seems to the best way to bring a support of integrated Ethernet
MACs into DPDK (related to many SoCs). Unfortunately, the ARMv7 SoCs (I
know) lacks

Alex,
I'd like to hear more about the impacts of "unsupported":
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=033291eccbdb1b70ffc02641edae19ac825dc75d
Use of this mode, specifically binding a device without a native
IOM
Recently there were some discussions to have an upstream replacement
for our igb_uio module.
Several solutions were discussed (new uio driver, uio_pci_generic, vfio):

Alex Williamson (maintainer of VFIO driver), submitted a solution
and was waiting some
