I don't think we should reference the new home in the file MAINTAINERS of dpdk.git. But yes, it should be documented. I'll add something in v2. > And I think at least 'doc/guides/linux_gsg/linux_drivers.rst' should be updated > to document the new home of the kernel module, but there are multiple references > in the documentation to the 'igb_uio', perhaps they should be replaced with > 'vfio' too? As part of this patch, I will document the new home of igb_uio, but won't change the usage references. I think moving to VFIO in docs is another patch, and probably multiple.
