Hi Sankalpa,

Have you enabled SRIOV and switchdev mode correctly? Is there any error in demsg?
Here is the regular steps:
1. enable sriov - new VF ports shown in `ip link`
2. unbind VFs - new VF ports disappear
3. enable switchdev mode - new representor ports shown in `ip link`
4. bind VFs again or passthrough to VM

Best Regards,
Xueming
