Message-ID: <1490606177-38274-1-git-send-email-qiming.yang@intel.com> (raw)

X710/XL710/XXV710, it will cause Input/Output error when
reading file descriptor.

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When insmod ``igb_uio`` with ``intr_mode=legacy`` and test link status
+interrupt, it will cause Input/Output error when reading file descriptor.
+The root cause is X710/XL710/XXV710 NICs lack support for indicating INTx
+is asserted via the interrupt bit in the PCI status register. Linux delect
+them from INTx support table. The related link `linux kernel commit <https:

+drivers/pci/quirks.c?id=8bcf4525c5d43306c5fd07e132bc8650e3491aec>`_.
