Hi,
         I am using dpdk for ixgbe. But after compiling DPDK, I just got igb_uio.ko.
         Is there something like ixgb_uio.ko?

         Thank you.

You are better off using VFIO (which does not require a new kernel driver), if possible.
That means using IOMMU if on bare metal, and the new vfio-noiommu mode in more recent kernels.
