Hi,

I am using DPDK successfully with an Intel x710 10G Controller, however I
am getting the error shown below when trying to use the older Intel x550T
controller in a similar manner.

I was able to find the following "workaround", however I'm not quite sure
how to apply this in practice in a standard ubuntu 22.04 LTS environment,
or if this is in fact the core issue.

30.4.5.3. Workaround
Do not bind the uio_pci_generic module in X550 NICs. Do not bind igb_uio
with legacy mode in X550 NICs. Before binding vfio with legacy mode in X550
NICs, use modprobe vfio `` ``nointxmask=1 to load vfio module if the intx
is not shared with other devices.

dpdk-devbind.py --unbind 0000:08:00.0
dpdk-devbind.py --bind=vfio-pci 0000:08:00.0
dpdk-devbind.py --status

0000:08:00.0 'Ethernet Controller 10G X550T 15d1' drv=vfio-pci unused=ixgbe

Press enter to exit


Thank you in advance for your help!

Cheers,

Robert
