I'm using a KVM Virtualized Guest that runs CentOS 7.1. I'm using SRIOV with bnx2x driver. When I bind my interface, as you can see below, to DPKD Driver igb_uio, I lose the interface control in linux. My question is: - Can use it normally on the operating system and how this is done? - Can I use it only on my app? And if so, how do I bind an ip from this dpdk interface to my app? *# ./dpdk_nic_bind.py --status* *Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver* *============================================* *0000:00:08.0 'NetXtreme II BCM57810 10 Gigabit Ethernet Virtual Function' drv=igb_uio unused=vfio-pci,uio_pci_generic* *Network devices using kernel driver* *===================================* *0000:00:07.0 'NetXtreme II BCM57810 10 Gigabit Ethernet Virtual Function' if=ens7 drv=bnx2x unused=igb_uio,vfio-pci,uio_pci_generic *Active** Thank you, Pedro Sousa
