11 Different PMDs may require different kernel drivers in order to work properly.
12 Depending on the PMD being used, a corresponding kernel driver should be loaded,
25 VFIO kernel is usually present by default in all distributions,
37 so the user cannot read it from the kernel directly.
85 both kernel and BIOS must support and be configured
99 In most cases, specifying "iommu=on" as kernel parameter should be enough to
100 configure the Linux kernel to use IOMMU.
115 Alternatively, one can also enable this option in an already loaded kernel module:
139 In many cases, the standard ``uio_pci_generic`` module included in the Linux kernel
162 the Linux kernel may disallow the use of UIO on the system.
163 Therefore, devices for use by DPDK should be bound to the ``vfio-pci`` kernel module
169 If the devices used for DPDK are bound to the ``uio_pci_generic`` kernel module,
185 PMDs which use the bifurcated driver co-exists with the device kernel driver.
186 On such model the NIC is controlled by the kernel, while the data
192 is done by the kernel.
196 while the rest will be directed and handled by the kernel driver.
212 PMDs which use the bifurcated driver should not be unbound from their kernel drivers.
215 …lications no longer automatically unbind all supported network ports from the kernel driver in use.
226 and to bind and unbind those ports from the different kernel modules,
231 Note that the UIO or VFIO kernel modules to be used,
232 should be loaded into the kernel before running the ``dpdk-devbind.py`` script.
265 Network devices using kernel driver
288 To restore device ``82:00.0`` to its original kernel binding:
299 The first place to check is the kernel messages:
311 To check whether the kernel has been booted with correct parameters,
312 one can check the kernel command-line:
318 Please refer to earlier sections on how to configure kernel parameters
321 If the kernel is configured correctly, one also has to make sure that
327 In certain distributions, default kernel configuration is such that
336 If ``CONFIG_VFIO_NOIOMMU`` is not enabled in the kernel configuration,
