|
This driver supports Intel 82576-based virtual function devices-based virtual
|
|
function devices that can only be activated on kernels that support SR-IOV.
|
|
|
|
SR-IOV requires the correct platform and OS support.
|
|
|
|
The guest OS loading this driver must support MSI-X interrupts.
|
|
|
|
For questions related to hardware requirements, refer to the documentation
|
|
supplied with your Intel adapter. All hardware requirements listed apply to use
|
|
with Linux.
|
|
|
|
Driver information can be obtained using ethtool, lspci, and ifconfig.
|
|
Instructions on updating ethtool can be found in the section Additional
|
|
Configurations later in this document.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: There is a limit of a total of 32 shared VLANs to 1 or more VFs.
