| Jesse Brandeburg | 85cfa71 | 2017-05-11 11:23:21 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 16 | The i40evf driver supports the below mentioned virtual function |
| 17 | devices and can only be activated on kernels running the i40e or |
| 18 | newer Physical Function (PF) driver compiled with CONFIG_PCI_IOV. |
| 19 | The i40evf driver requires CONFIG_PCI_MSI to be enabled. |
