Comment # 1 on bug 1541 from Patrick Robb

After discussing this subject with=
 various DPDK developers:

Testing SR-IOV in DPDK does not actually necessitate passing the VF through=
 to
the VM. i.e. we can just create virtual functions and test them as is on the
baremetal OS (which is currently supported as of 25.07).=20

Similarly, the first testing we should provide with virtio does not necessi=
tate
creation of a VM, as we can just launch a vhost backend and virtio frontend=
 on
the baremetal.

If we support VM creation in DTS in the future, it will be for virtio, not
sriov passthrough.
