Hi ..,

I am trying to find a way to use dpdk in a VM with sriov nic
without using igb_uio.

uio_pci_generic: failed with  "No IRQ assigned to device: no support for
interrupts?".
vfio-pci also doesn't work on linux < 4.5 and need dpdk > 16.04.

Is this a deadend  for dpdk+sriov If I have linux < 4.5 and/or dpdk < 16.04?

Regards,
Nirmoy
