Bjorn,
To be honest, the output above is picked up from other guy's mail,
because I composed the patch mail at home and left the real bug
material at company, they 'really' hit an issue confused by lspci
output while SR-IOV is initialized to disabled .
There is an error in above output as description that not made on
purpose, sorry again, the
IOVCtl: Enable+
should be
IOVCtl: Enable-
Current iov.c code, in fact, initializing the SR-IOV to disabled whatever BIOS
setup the PCI_SRIOV_XX registers.
Thanks,
Ethan
