vfio not recognized if compiled into kernel

Open choppsv1 opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Newer ubuntu distributions have kernels with vfio compiled in (i.e., it is not present as a module). dpdk_* scripts are looking for the module and failing if not found. trex also fails to work unless I modify the dpdk_nic_bind script to not fail and instead assume vfio, and then pre-bind the interface to vfio before running trex.
