Please Jose, better describe your use case in order to have the right answer. The standard SR-IOV use case is to use a recent ixgbe driver from kernel.org or from sourceforge.net for the PF on the host. Then use ixgbevf from DPDK in the guest. It should work. It is documented in chapter 9 (IXGBE/IGB Virtual Function Driver) of the programmer's guide: http://dpdk.org/doc -- Thomas
