Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] vfio: expand non-viable group error message
Date: Fri, 26 Apr 2019 17:22:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190426162230.21158-1-ktraynor@redhat.com> (raw)
Message-ID: <20190426162230.BUkqewmQysINbomFyEDaLpariG5Zfwe3xcmdCZaxZzY@z> (raw)

"VFIO group is not viable" error message is correct
but not very user friendly for something which can
usually be easily rectified.

Add some additional text to give more of a hint.
